Dreamcatcher, with Evan Dorkin
In 2003, legendary director Lawrence Kasdan teamed with legendary screenwriter William Goldman, for a big-budget adaptation of a novel by legendary horror novelist Stephen King. And the result was… also legendary. But for different reasons than they might have hoped. On this episode, legendary (at least to us!) comics artist and writer Evan Dorkin joins us to discuss one of the most inexplicable flops of the 2000’s — DREAMCATCHER!

Return to Silent Hill, with Steven Kostanski
Max Fun Drive 2026 is over, and normally we’d be back to our “one full ep one mini” schedule, but we had too many good guests lined up, so you’re getting another maxi this week AND next. That’s why they call us Peaches. (Editor’s note: there’s no particularly good reason we’re called The Peaches.) First up, our pal/amazing movie director/special effects wizard Steven Kostanski joins us to discuss a movie he kinda liked: RETURN TO SILENT HILL. Will the rest of us agree?
Episode #480
40 Days and 40 Nights
We close out Max Fun Drive 2026 with some true pain. Stuart’s proclaimed “least favorite movie,” 40 DAYS AND 40 NIGHTS, a supposed “sexy romcom” that’s actually a melange of unfunny shenanigans, poisonous attitudes, nothing that resembles actual human behavior, and (trigger warning) some unacknowledged sexual assault. It’s… a lot. But at least it led to a funny episode — like a flower, blooming from a pile of shit.

Feardotcom
We’re in the swing of Max Fun Drive 2026, and for “Dan’s pick” of our 3 special MFD episodes, he’s taking us back to 2002 when the internet felt new and we were all logging on to FEARDOTCOM, or — more accurately — feardotcom.com (just listen to the episode). Join us as we surf the fear-web!
Episode #478
Exit to Eden
For Max Fun Drive 2026 (starting this Monday 4/20) the Peaches issued a fiendish challenge to one another — we each get ONE pick to bedevil the others with, and Stuart starts us off with a doozy: 1994’s EXIT TO EDEN. It started out as an erotic BDSM novel by Anne Rice, so clearly the best person to bring the heat was Garry Marshall, known for such previous Flop House faves as Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day. So climb on board the sex boat and take a ride with us to sex island as we dissect this wild misfire.
Episode #477
Mercy
AI is bad, except maybe it’s not, maybe AI will help you solve the murder of your wife before it executes you for the murder of its wife… wtf is Mercy saying, anyway? Maybe it’s saying if you put your hero in a chair for 100 minutes your movie will feel inert. Especially if Chris Pratt is that hero? Hard to say, but we do our best to untangle one of the silliest flops of the year.

Fantasy Land March Madness
He missed March by four days, but hey, there’s nothing in the rulebook that says Elliott can’t lead us in a March Madness showdown to determine which cinematic fantasy land would be best to live in!
