Happy 300th post! The years 1986 through 1991 are known as The Half Decade of Cheesiness. A combination of the Clarence Thomas/Anita Hill Hearings, the Rodney King Beating, Jeffrey Dahmer, the end of the Cold War, The Perfect Storm (the actual thing), Nevermind and the birth of Dewey from Malcolm in the Middle put an end to cheese but we still have artifacts that span this time period in the form of these two movies.
I was charged with making a theme that lent itself to snacks. Calling it Cheesy Movie Night may be a cop out but just be glad I didn't give in to temptation and show Double Down so we could all eat Double Downs.
Also feel sad because Double Down is amazing.
Breathing Fire should be the headliner but it doesn't have any nudity, and since Breeders only has nudity, it goes in the kid friendly spot. The MacGuffin in this movie is slices of pizza which have the impression of a key on them. More cheese! There's also a bank robbery, some kung-fu and Bolo Yeung in drag.
Ironically, Breeders is directed by gay porn director Tim Kincaid. Fangoria has an interesting interview with him which includes this exchange about non-gay porn movie She's Back:
ABLEY: SHE’S BACK starred Carrie Fisher! Whoa! Any non-litigious stories you’d like to share about Ms. Fisher?
KINCAID: No.
He also directed the Mystery Science Theater 3000 first season movie Robot Holocaust:
Hey, what's going with Tim Kincaid's movie The Female Response and the poster to King Frat?:
Weird.
Here's what happened last week:
