Put down the peace pipe and make a video run with us to the teenage end of the Fatal Attraction series as we discuss:

FEAR (1996) starring Reese Witherspoon as a teen girl who rebels against her family by dating the baddest of boys, played by Mark Wahlberg.

SWIMFAN (2002) starring Jesse Bradford as the guy who gets mixed up with Erika Christensen’s absolute supervillain, Madison Bell (the titular Swimfan).

This episode is a must listen if you ever wanted to hear Chris say, “I was expecting Hoobastank.”

Jen Howell of the Every Rom Com podcast joins to help us answer the quesion: What if the dangerous stranger who is going to wreck your life…is a kid?

Go grab Mr. Highway and strap in for THE GOOD SON (1993) starring Macaulay Culkin and Elijah Wood, written by Ian McEwan and directed by Joseph Ruben.

We’re under a strict “return to office” mandate as we look at two films where the danger is in the workplace: THE TEMP (1993) starring Timothy Hutton and Lara Flynn Boyle trying to make that cheddar in the world of cookies, and DISCLOSURE (1994) where Michael Douglas and Demi Moore deal with Malaysian supply chain issues.

When dangerous strangers wreak havoc on yuppie couples — the police protect the stranger! How’s a yuppie supposed to guard their investment in decorative glass blocks? This week's episode has the answers as we watch:

PACIFIC HEIGHTS (1990) starring Melanie Griffith, Matthew Modine, and Michael Keaton as the con man who’s one step ahead.

UNLAWFUL ENTRY (1992) starring Kurt Russell, Madeleine Stowe, and Ray Liotta with an electric performance as an obsessed, psychopathic cop.

This week we have a pair of thrillers about guys who meet a “New Friend from Hell” and pay the consequences.

Explore the dark side with BAD INFLUENCE (1990) from writer David Koepp and director Curtis Hanson, starring James Spader and Rob Lowe.

Then it’s time to get way to close to the creepy new neighbors in CONSENTING ADULTS (1992) starring Kevin Kline, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, Kevin Space, and Rebecca Miller.
