Song of the autumn contest winner Jason MacIssac decreed that we should be subjected to legendary season-one-of-American-Idol ancillary flop From Justin to Kelly. Did he take it easy on us, or is there now a bounty on his head? Meanwhile Stuart introduces his innovative new restaurant concept, and Elliott murders Dan on air.

The Hobbit: Battle of the Five Armies
Nine Days of One Year

A returning Flop House director guides a cast of returning Flop House stars in an eruption of mediocrity named Pompeii. Meanwhile Stu asks a provocative question about Cenobites, Elliott reveals an early draft of a Robert Louis Stevenson classic, and Dan debuts his new hit character.

We watched Robocop (2014). Detailed show notes canceled on account of Dan being sick with Mongolian death flu.

Thus we enter November, the month known for having “No” theme. And, appropriately, we watched one of the most generic of modern action sequels, 300: Rise of an Empire. Meanwhile, Elliott lectures on Noid avoidance, Dan makes a public apology relating to one type of music and attacks another, and Stu makes an exciting announcement for enjoyers of comical books.

We help open the 2015 NYC Podfest with our first live show that's not a film screening, but an actual episode of The Flop House!

Lindsay Lohan plays to her strengths as a set of twins – one a bored stripper who never takes off her clothes but whose limbs fall off for no reason, the other a high school student who is kidnapped by Tobias Fünke at a Blue Man Group audition – in I Know Who Killed Me, an overwrought thriller based on a bad meal Brian De Palma once ate.

Featuring a slideshow presentation by I Love Bad Movies and running commentary by The Flop House, plus a special guest for Flop House fans.

Smalltember continues with perhaps the smallest movie we've ever covered, the bad movie new classic "A Talking Cat!?!" Meanwhile Stuart entertains the lizard representative of Harlem, Elliott gives helpful mnemonic devices for the major German directors, and Dan does some research into the pervy past of the movie's creative team.
