  • Jack Frost (1997)
    Dec 11 2024

    Jack is BACK for Just Play It. Upon Nick's confusion from last year of which late 90s Jack Frost movie we were watching, it's official - the chiller killer's time has come. We discuss Michael Cooney's wacky, campy Christmas killer snowman movie after a first watch. It flopped with critics, went straight to video, and is giving us the holiday fear almost 30 years later. The only question is, you like your carrots shaved or raw?

  • Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)
    Nov 13 2024

    Nick and James reach their destiny this week. It's the end of the franchise of the year as it is also the end for Indy, or is it? No it probably is. We dive into Dial on a first watch, discuss its place in the franchise and determine if this movie is really as bad as they say. Hop in an old airplane with us and take a plunge back in time as we take a look back at the entire franchise we enjoyed this past year.

  • The Evil Dead (1981) & Evil Dead II (1987)
    Oct 30 2024

    James & Nick drive Uncle Ben's Oldsmobile Delta 88 into the creepy woods to find themselves at the end of the road for spooky szn. What lies ahead is evil, it is dead, and it is downright hilariously messed up. Slap a chainsaw to your arm & call me George of the Jungle, because we gotta watch out for that tree!

  • Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988)
    Oct 23 2024

    Killer Klowns attacked us where it hurt, at the concession stand. We won't stand for weaponizing popcorn around these parts. And by these parts we mean NOT Capitola. James & Nick get cotton-candied by Killer Klowns during a first watch and a first REWATCH of the late 80s cult classic movie. Strap in, it's gonna be a sticky ride.
