S12 Ep595: C.H.U.D. (Live in Brooklyn)

Author: WHM Entertainment February 22, 2022 Duration: 1:53:37

On this week's episode, the gang is live from the Bell House in Brooklyn as they celebrate a decade on the air (one year late) by talking about Douglas Cheek's C.H.U.D.! This scuzzy NYC cult classic was a staple in the early days of WHM movie hangs, so it was only appropriate the guys (at least attempt) to chat about the film live on stage! This show featured the first live edition of The VHS Trailer Game, a gross-out gag involving canned food, and a special appearance by none other than friend of the show, Ben Worcester! 

C.H.U.D. stars Daniel Stern, John Heard, Christopher Curry, Kim Griest, J.C. Quinn, and Ruth Maleczech; directed by Douglas Cheek.

For over a decade, the crew at We Hate Movies has been turning cinematic misfires into comedy gold. Each episode from WHM Entertainment finds a quartet of friends dissecting a famously bad film, from forgotten straight-to-video oddities to big-budget Hollywood disasters. The conversation is less a formal review and more like eavesdropping on the funniest, most brutally honest film debate at a bar, where tangents about obscure actors and baffling plot holes are not just encouraged, they’re the main event. You’ll hear them mercilessly roast wooden dialogue, ill-conceived special effects, and questionable life choices made by characters and filmmakers alike, all while building a surprising affection for these flawed creations. This podcast thrives on the specific joy of tearing apart a terrible movie with your most sarcastic friends, celebrating failure as its own form of entertainment. It’s a consistently hilarious escape for anyone who finds more genuine laughs in a film’s awkward silence or a poorly rendered CGI monster than in a perfectly crafted Oscar winner. The chemistry between the hosts turns each episode into a freewheeling comedic breakdown, making even the most tedious movie an absolute delight to revisit through their critical and deeply silly lens. Tune in for a masterclass in comedic riffing, where the love for cinema is undeniable, even when-or especially when-the movies themselves are not.
