|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4/30/26 | Always On the Box ('85) | Send us Fan Mail Here's a quick hit from the loft. These are movies that always seemed to be on the cable box '85. And I got caught up in them every time. It was like the O.G. doomscroll, but with a great return. Don't even ask my how the '85 episode is longer than the '81–'84 episode..... | 14m 30s | ||||||

| 3/27/26 | Back To The Future 1985 | Send us Fan Mail SPEED LIMIT: AWKWARD In this episode, we’re breaking down the 1985 classic Back to the Future, directed by Robert Zemeckis. We follow Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox), a guitar playing, skateboard riding, teenager who accidentally erases his own existence. While Dr. Emmett "Doc" Brown (Christopher Lloyd) turns a DeLorean into a time machine, proving that if you’re going to mess with the space-time continuum, you might as well do it with gull-wing doors. Marty gets stuck in 1955 a... | 1h 19m 57s | ||||||
| 3/7/26 | Always On the Box (’81–’84) | Send us Fan Mail Here's a quick hit from the loft. These are movies that always seemed to be on the cable box between 1980-1984. And I got caught up in them every time. Hypnotic. It was like the O.G. doomscroll, but with a great return. | 9m 48s | ||||||
| 1/21/26 | The Malden Chronicles — Death Wish | Send us Fan Mail Another brotherly tale of 28 and 36 Spring Street lore. Go ahead and google map it for reference. Maybe you can even follow the foot chase a little. | 6m 53s | ||||||
| 1/9/26 | Beat Street Breakdown | Send us Fan Mail This is a minisode on one of my favorite films. One that feels so real for my age and station at the time that I feel like I could walk right into it. Just deserved a revisit. Hope it doesn't put you to sleep. | 19m 29s | ||||||
| 12/17/25 | Home Alone 1990 | Send us Fan Mail A John Hughes/Chris Columbus joint, Home Alone is the heartwarming tale of an upper-middle-class family who go to Paris and accidentally leave their youngest child behind like an extra carry-on they didn’t feel like paying for. Eight-year-old Kevin McCallister—played by a pint-sized, eyebrow-acting Macaulay Culkin—responds to this minor hiccup by eating junk food, watching gangster movies, and turning his house into a suburban Saw trap for two burglars whose crime is mos... | 1h 22m 16s | ||||||
| 11/30/25 | The Malden Chronicles — Robbin' Hood Trees Remix | Send us Fan Mail 'Twas the week before Christmas, when all through our house Not a creature was stirring, not even that big mouth Our stockings were hung by the chimney with care In hopes that the MPD would stay in the Square The renters were nestled all snug in their beds While visions of alchy bums danced in their heads And mummy in her Star Market smock and I in my head spin hat Had just settled our brains for a long winter's nap When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter I s... | 12m 33s | ||||||
| 11/23/25 | Planes, Trains and Automobiles 1987 | Send us Fan Mail It’s Thanksgiving, and we're carving up some Planes, Trains and Automobiles, and it’s not just as a holiday classic, but as a masterclass in comedic discomfort delivered by two legends at the peak of their powers: Steve Martin and John Candy. Martin is a symphony of simmering fury. A brilliant performance of the slow-motion dissolution of a WASP executive’s sanity. Meanwhile, Candy's a bulldozing force of good-natured, oblivious optimism. Martin’s precise, explosive rants are... | 1h 32m 17s | ||||||

| 11/12/25 | The Monster Squad 1987 | Send us Fan Mail The Monster Squad (1987) is what happens when a bunch of middle school monster nerds decide to take on Dracula, the Wolfman, and the rest of Universal’s greatest hits — armed mostly with sarcasm, bike helmets, and the power of friendship. The film was unfairly dismissed when it came out, possibly because audiences weren’t ready for a movie where a kid yells, “Wolfman’s got nards!” and somehow, it becomes cinematic poetry. Over the years, The Monster Squad has crawled out of i... | 1h 32m 42s | ||||||
| 10/31/25 | The Malden Chronicles — The Hook | Send us Fan Mail Another pull from one of The Malden Chronicles episodes that's worth a revisit. | 9m 06s | ||||||
| 10/21/25 | Jacobs Ladder 1990 | Send us Fan Mail Jacob’s Ladder is part psychological horror, part spiritual breakdown, and all sweaty paranoia. Tim Robbins nails it as a Vietnam vet whose post-war life turns into a fever dream of demons, flashbacks, and truly bad subway etiquette. It's the kind of movie that makes you question reality, mortality, and why anyone would trust a chiropractor named Louis with existential advice. Come for the psychological trauma, stay because you can’t tell what’s real anymore. | 1h 01m 23s | ||||||
| 10/14/25 | Woods And Whippets Minisode | Send us Fan Mail People, places and things. | 9m 03s | ||||||
| 10/8/25 | The Thing 1982 | Send us Fan Mail Grab your flamethrower and your blood test kit, because we’re thawing out John Carpenter’s The Thing (1982) — the frosty freakshow where Kurt Russell, Keith David, Wilford Brimley, and the gang learn the hard way that trust is dead and the dog is definitely not okay. And remember, it’s not paranoia if your best friend’s head just grew spider legs. And that Entertainment Tonight intro music I used just happens to be from June 25, 1982. Youtube is a strange and wonderful place. | 1h 15m 02s | ||||||
| 9/21/25 | Evil Dead 2 1987 | Send us Fan Mail Groovy. | 56m 19s | ||||||
| 8/12/25 | The Naked Gun 1988-2025 | Send us Fan Mail This is a special double header is brought to you hot from theater to loft. Bask in the greatness of a franchise that we're glad to see propagate through the decades. From Leslie to Liam, and Priscilla to Pam. Chef's kiss. | 1h 32m 06s | ||||||
| 7/8/25 | Return Of The Living Dead 1985 | Send us Fan Mail July 3, 1984, 5:30 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time. "Burt, I...I think things are gettin' outta hand!" If that isn't the understatement of the '80s. Return Of The Living Dead is serving up more brains, just in case all that mystery meat in them hotdogs you ate on the 4th whet your appetite. James Karen, Linnea Quigley, Clu Gulager and Don Calfa bring the heat in this comedy horror. Sure, pitting punks against zombies might be a staple of the genre now, but at the time it was a... | 50m 27s | ||||||
| 6/6/25 | Vision Quest 1985 | Send us Fan Mail "My name's Louden, Louden Swain. Last week I turned 18. I wasn't ready for it. I haven't done anything yet. So I made this deal with myself. This is the year I make my mark." What to say about Vision Quest? It's a staple of any well rounded '80s film diet. Unless you're cutting weight at an unhealthy rate. And let it be known, since I don't think I quite drove it home during this episode....this is one of my all time (unlikely) favorite movies. Matthew Modine and Linda Fior... | 1h 11m 02s | ||||||
| 5/6/25 | Real Genius 1985 | Send us Fan Mail This scientific romp was part of the ultimate trio released in August 1985. Real Genius, Weird Science, and My Science Project were released within one week of each other and just one month after Back to the Future. With Martha Coolidge at the helm, this movie spared the usual sophomoric fare we all love the '80s for. I love those sentence-ending prepositions. I ain't know much, but I know what I like. And I likes me some Val Kilmer. With no pandering to the usual bully... | 1h 17m 23s | ||||||
| 4/6/25 | The Malden Chronicles — Diamonds In The Rough | Send us Fan Mail Just some low key stories for posterity in this episode. Linden love and the lumps along the way. | 57m 03s | ||||||
| 3/17/25 | The Malden Chronicles — Let It Whip | Send us Fan Mail Once again sitting down with my brothers Jamie and Jeff. This is the caliber of story that barely makes the cut for public consumption. Anything south of this stays in the family vault of recordings. If you've listened to any of The Malden Chronicles, the background and reference as to how this kind of scenario came to be is of little concern. And how it all went away is a tale unto itself. If you find it offensive or hard to take, please forgive me. | 17m 47s | ||||||
| 3/6/25 | Remote Control 1988 | Send us Fan Mail Here's another one from 2020 that was never going to see the light of day. It was originally over an hour. We can't put anyone through us walking through the movie minute by minute, so it's now about 25 minutes. Enjoy the silence.... | 26m 06s | ||||||
| 2/24/25 | No Retreat, No Surrender 1986 | Send us Fan Mail November 27, 2020: We're going back to 2020 with this episode. Well before The Movie Loft Podcast was available on any streaming platform. As I've mentioned before, we have a whole unreleased first season in the back of our vault. It may not rival the Paisley Park archives, but there are obviously some uncut gems in there. And No Retreat, No Surrender is one of them. A 1986 classic featuring JCVD 1.0. I was truly shocked to find this in there. Trust me when I tell you t... | 1h 16m 46s | ||||||
| 2/14/25 | The Malden Chronicles — Pig And A Poke | Send us Fan Mail Here is an excerpt from The Malden Chronicle – Crime Does Pay episode. This is a slightly longer edit of the original story, so you can hear that some of what hits the cutting room floor is just as juicy. | 17m 30s | ||||||
