99 Cent Rental Podcast

Episode 9: The Warriors

Listen on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Amazon | Goodpods

99 Cent Rental is a comedy podcast revisiting the low-budget action, comedy, and science fiction films that clogged video store shelves throughout the 1980s and early 90s.

Every other week, hosts Bryan and Dave White, hosts of the Bring Me The Axe! horror podcast, dive deep into the nearly forgotten world of ninjas, breakdancers, skateboarders, action hero knockoffs, and Cold War paranoia that embodied the excess and over-the-top attitude of the 1980s and celebrate them for everything they were and weren’t.

Alright, boppers! This week Bryan and Dave put one of their favorite movies under a microscope for a giant-sized 99 Cent Rental episode about Walter Hill's 1979 gang odyssey, The Warriors. Few movies made as much of an impact on the exploitation market at The Warriors and fewer still impacted the rental market with such an iconic poster and rental box. In its day its marketing was driven by public outrage over gang violence at the movies but how much of that was true? We go over all of it. Can you dig it?
