Overdue Homework Tron 1982 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Kevin Flynn is digitized into a computer and discovers that the inside of a computer is apparently just a bunch of dudes in glowing pajamas trying to kill each other. Forced into gladiatorial games by a fascist operating system, Flynn teams up with Tron, a program who takes his job of protecting the system considerably more seriously than anyone should. It’s basically an 80s arcade game, a corporate espionage thriller, and a giant neon fever dream crammed into one movie and somehow convinced Dis
Overdue Homework Kickboxer 1989 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After his brother is crippled by Muay Thai fighter Tong Po, Kurt is looking for revenge, despite having apparently never heard of the concept of “leaving well enough alone.” He trains with Master Xian, learns to kick things really hard, and eventually faces Tong Po in a fight involving ropes, glass, and several decisions I would personally describe as “bad.” Somehow Kurt wins, proving that with enough rage and absolutely no regard for his own safety, he can punch you in your entire stomach.

It's a movie that earnestly asks you to believe four talking turtles fit into 16th-century Japan better than they ever fit into 1990s New York. This is the Overdue Homework Podcast we review and assign new 80's and 90's Movie, TV, or Video Game homework every
Overdue Homework Species 2 1998 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Species II (1998) Ponders: "What if the first movie wasn't weird enough?" After a trip to Mars, an astronaut returns to Earth with an irresistible urge to spread alien DNA the fastest—and grossest—way imaginable, while scientists and hired guns scramble to stop him before humanity becomes one giant biology experiment. It's ninety minutes of bad decisions, exploding bodies, and a level of horniness that should've been quarantined with the rest of the mission. This is the Overdue Homework Podcast
