Film Is Pwn vs. Monster Squad
Film Is Pwn vs. Monster Squad

Not unlike the Wolfman, Film is Pwn has Nards.  And to prove our Nard possession, we are tackling this *cough* gem from the 80s just in time for its grand re-re-release on Blu Ray (no, seriously).

While we don't think it's possible to make a case that Monster Squad is a "good" movie, it's equally hard to argue that Monster Squad is not fun.  Sure the plot has holes big enough for Jabba the Hut to build a summer house in with room for a swimming pool; sure the rogues gallery is completely anemic other than Dracula, and even Drac uses his amazing powers to do stuff like lighting the fuse of Acme dynamite; sure the heroes are snot-nosed brats whose primary weapon is a kick to the nardulars and a compious serving of luck; sure there's homophobic dialogue and oodles of cruelty to the fat kid constantly referred to solely as "fat kid;" and sure there are plenty of other "sures" we're sure we left out.

But if Monster Squad was part of  your childhood experience, what better way to relive it than with the dulcit tones of Brian Alterman, Tom Stephens, and Daniel Roos poking fun at it along the way?  If you've never seen or heard of Monster Squad, what better reason to go check out it and endure -- I mean, enjoy -- it for the first time with the hilarious iRiff from your favorite cinematic masochists, the aforementioned Brian Alterman, Tom Stephens, and Daniel Roos?

Fat Kid has a name

Another great iRiff from Film is Pwn.

Even though I grew up in the 80s I had somehow missed out on this gem. 1980's...the golden age of movies that featured casual swearing by every character under the age 18. Good times, goood times.

As for the riffing, some great individual lines as well as running jokes. The inexplicable coolness of Rudy, the ineffectiveness of the villains and, of course, Fat Kid's name. Re-watchability level is high with this iRiff.

Thanks guys, keep 'em coming.

Super iRiff

Monster Squad practically is fun to watch without commentary but Film Is Pwn gives it a super riffing, embracing the cheese and putting a cherry on top. Great variety of references and styles (sarcasm, observational, etc.) Keep it up!
