“The problem is, Jessie... I don't believe in Santa Claus anymore.”

Ho-Ho-Ho.

This week we are looking at a film we have debated doing every Christmas and that film is 1986’s Prancer. Starring the wonderful Sam Elliott, this Christmas adventure follows a young girl who finds a wounded reindeer and believes it is the infamous Prancer.

So what did we think of this film? Did it ignite the festive joy in us or leave us feeling as cold as a reindeer's nose? Grab an apple cider and join us in another Christmas episode of Darren and Matt’s 80’s Adventure to find out.

“You're the wrong guy in the wrong place at the wrong time.”

This episode we catch up with John McClane as he goes to pick his wife up from the airport at Christmas and well, you know the drill. With a slight decade breach we head to 1990 for Die Hard 2. It’s a tough task to live up to the original and in this episode we see if it can be done.

So, grab one of Al’s Twinkies and join us as the countdown to Christmas begins.

“Fine. I'm gone. It's done. And you can go back to doing whatever you want to do, with whoever you want to do it, and whatever orifice you want to do it in.”

This episode we go to a film that neither of us had ever seen as we head to Chicago in 1986 for About Last Night… starring Rob Lowe and Demi Moore who look just as good today as they did nearly 40 years ago.

So, why not head down to Mothers Bar and see what we think about this film based on a David Mamet play from the 70’s.

“They look like big, good, strong hands, don't they? I always thought that's what they were.”

This episode we journey through the mythical land of Fantasia and beyond with Bastian, Atreyu and a whole collection of quirky and wonderful characters. This gem from 1984 still captures the hearts and imaginations of children and adults alike today, so why not take a listen and see what we have to say about this film in its 40th year.

So, go up to the attic, open up your podcasting player of choice and join us as we delve into… The NeverEnding Story Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah.

“There's something out there. That... that witch in the cellar is only part of it. It lives... out in those woods, in the dark... something... something that's come back from the dead.”

Happy Halloween!

This episode we are getting “groovy” with Ash in Evil Dead 2. This bonkers Sam Rami film from 1987 has an amazing cult following but will it have two more by the end of the episode?

So let's all sit back and celebrate the spookiest night of the year with this madcap film and a well earned beverage of your choice.

“I... I swallowed my chewing tobacco.”

As we approach halloween we decided to take a look at 1986’s Critters. This film with numerous Gremlins comparisons terrorised one of us when watching it on video back in the day but is it as scary now or just plain goofy.

Clocking in at under 90 minutes how much damage can these little terrors from outer space do? Take a listen to hear what we thought.

“Why don't we go lay on the bed and I'll fill you in?”

This film was suggested to us by a long time listener and we have finally got round to it after our sequels tour.

So, this episode we get to both watch an 80’s film that neither of us have seen before with 1985’s Fletch. This Chevy Chase film has its fair share of fans but will it make two new ones? Have a listen and find out.

"No, I know; you did send me back to the future. But I'm back - I'm back from the future."

This episode we return to a set of films that we hold dear, the Back to the Future Trilogy. Once again we find ourselves in Hill Valley in a multitude of time periods with good old Marty and Doc.

The first instalment was a very high score from both of us and you can find that in the back catalogue under episode 88.

Will this film be as beloved as the first in our opinions or should it be ditched in a back alley like Jennifer was? Put down Wild Gunman, grab a Pepsi Perfect and find out.
