Welcome To The Home Of It’s Not That Bad
It’s the show that does its best to defend the unfairly maligned movies, to find the silver linings in the films deemed “less than great”. Every week, host Jason Whissell is joined by a guest to discuss a movie that has been poorly rated by the critics or by the fans. We do our very best to find good things to say about them, and to show those flicks in a light that you may have not noticed before. We are also always happy to hear what movies you think should be covered, as well as what you thought of the movies themselves. We’ll be posting blogs on here as well as keep you updated as to what to expect in the coming months.

Ep. 179 – Renfield
Raise your hand if you can relate…you’re stuck in a thankless job, catering to the every whim and want of your unfeeling, uncaring boss who demands your fealty 24/7 and doesn’t care if you try to develop a life outside of your work. Now, throw in a cavalcade of dismemberment and a diet that would seem more in line with a guest stint on Fear Factor. Yummy. Turn the lights down low, it’s time to see if Renfield is not that bad.

Ep. 178 – Antitrust
We all know computers are listening to everything we say and do. Just one search for “granola bar” will trigger a flood of sponsored ads about cereal, drinking establishments and oat-based beverages to drink while out. So, what better way to fuel our paranoia than to watch a film about a tech CEO violating all sorts of privacy laws and terms of service? Put the sticky over your webcam, it’s time to see if Antitrust is not that bad.
