Barkey introduces you to "Cyborg 2087" (1966), a sci-fi movie with everything but the kitchen sink in it! It's got cyborgs, it's got time travel, it's got ray guns, it's got telepathic mind control, it's got scientists, it's got a dystopian future, you name it, "Cyborg 2087" (1966) has it! The legendary Michael Rennie stars as the titular cyborg, while Barbara Steele, Wendell Corey, and a lot of other familiar faces lend support.

"Challenger" (1990) was an interesting artifact, attempting to dramatize what happened leading up to the destruction of the space shuttle Challenger on January 28th, 1986. Adding to the nation grief of the tragedy, one of the crew was Christa McAuliffe, a teacher from New Hampshire who was to have been the first civilian in space, and would have broadcast lessons to schools around the country from orbit. The TV movie sports a name-brand cast, including Peter Boyle, Barry Bostwick, Angela Bassett, Lane Smith, and a star turn by Karen Allen as Christa McAuliffe. Does the movie measure up? Does it do justice to the subject? Barkey has the word.

Barkey has a real weird one, this time! "Who?" (1974), a strange Cold War tale of a lead scientist working on a top secret government project that gets transformed into a cyborg by the Russians! When he's finally returned to the US, the FBI has to determine if this guy really is the scientist, a cleverly coached commie doppelganger, or what! Elliot Gould, Ben Bova, and Trevor Howard star in this offbeat movie based on a novel by science fiction author Algis Budrys.

This time out, Barkey looks at "The Specialist" (1994), a Sylvester Stallone vehicle based on a series of books by John Cutter. Here, Stallone plays Ray Quick, a mercenary who takes a job for Sharon Stone to help her get revenge on the Florida crime family who killed her parents. James Woods, Eric Roberts, and Rod Steiger round out the cast, and John Barry delivers a recycled James Bond score. Cultural vandal Akiva Goldsman worked on the script, adding to the problems the project was already suffering under. But is the movie any good in retrospect? Barkey has the word!

In this one, Barkey checks out a slasher movie from the dawn of the 1980's, "The Prowler" (1981). This movie owes more than a little to a picture that preceded it the same year, "My Bloody Valentine" (1981). As Barkey explains, both movies have a surprising number of things in common, but which is the better film? Barkey weighs in!

Barkey revisits the world of 1970's ESP and psychic phenomena with a look at "The Eyes of Charles Sand" (1972). In this one, a man inherits psychic powers that are described as being both a blessing and a curse. There are several brand name cast members in this failed TV pilot, including Adam West, Joan Bennett, Barbara Rush and Ivan Tors. "The Eyes of Charles Sand" (1972) has an intriguing premise, not unlike the Leonard Nimoy TV pilot "Baffled!" which came out the same year.

The last video of the year! To celebrate New Year's Eve, Barkey takes a look at a Hallmark-style romcom that's aimed at the rainbow crowd, a love story about a pop star and her best friend in Nashville on the titular holiday.
So... is this thing any good, or is it insufferable, or what? Barkey weighs in!

Barkey looks at the various iterations of "Miracle on 34th Street", the classic Christmas story of a department store Santa Claus who starts a goodwill campaign that takes off in New York City.

Ever since the perennial Christmas hit "Home Alone" (1990) came out, Hollywood has been trying to recapture lightning in a bottle, not just with sequels to "Home Alone" (1990), but with upteen-gazillion knockoffs of varying quality. Int his video, Barkey Dog looks at some of these hopeless contenders for the throne of the original "Home Alone" (1990).

In this one, Barkey takes a look at two movies that purport to "re-imagine" that famous paragon of Christmas villianry, the Grinch, from the Dr. Suess story "How the Grinch Who Stole Christmas!" Here, Barkey reviews two movies, one starring Tony Danza and Lea Thompson (and Betty White!). Are these movies suitably Grinchy, or not? Barkey weighs in!

To usher in the Christmas season, Barkey takes a look at different versions of Santa Claus. Is he elf, demon, religious figure, or more? Barkey offers up some movies that you may not have heard of, but offer different takes on jolly old Saint Nick, Santa Claus.
This time out, Barkey reviews an interesting silent film with super-science elements, "Filibus" (1915). Here, a female supercrook matches wits with the police, and uses an airship, knockout gas, and clever disguises to commit daring robberies. Can the police stop Filibus?
This one has been pushed as some kind of "deeply coded message" about transgender, feminist, or people with lesbotic tendencies... but is it really? What's actually in the film? Barkey gives you all the straight dope on "Filibus" (1915), and if it's worth your time.

Barkey reviews an 80's cult classic, the romantic comedy with a sci-fi twist, "Earth Girls Are Easy" (1988). This movie is bizarre and weird and kind of wonderful, all at the same time. Geena Davis, Jeff Goldblum, Jim Carrey and Michael McKean star in this tale of aliens meet Valley locals in Los Angeles. Look fast for Larry Linville from M*A*S*H* and Robby the Robot!

Once again, the Barkster makes his case that there are simply NO good Thanksgiving movies. Sure, there are movies you can watch at Thanksgiving, and there are movies set during Thanksgiving, but movies about families gathering at the holiday are a recipe for disaster. Join Barkey as he carves up some more cinematic Ptomaine Turkeys!

That's right, instead of the usual Tokyo stomping grounds, this time the giant radioactive dinosaurs are stomping on London! Barkey shares two monster movies directed by Eugène Lourié, "The Giant Behemoth" (1959) and "Gorgo" (1961). Is one better than the other? Is London doomed? And where is Doctor Who when you need him?!

Barkey takes a gander at a late 80's vehicle for Tom Selleck, who had just finished his run on the successful hit series "Magnum P.I." "Her Alibi" (1989) was supposed to be a stepping stone for Selleck, possibly leading to the small screen star making the leap to the big silver screen. Sadly, things didn't turn out that way. Barkey gives you the lowdown on this picture, starring Tom Selleck, supermodel Paulina Porizkova, and the voice of K.I.T.T. himself, William Daniels. Bruce Beresford directs.

Barkey takes on Batwoman in this one! No, not the dopey CW character, but the ORIGINAL Batwoman... sort of. This Batwoman is a Mexican wrestler, who is really a secret agent fighting to stop some evil bad guys from killing professional wrestlers in order to create their own Creature from the Black Lagoon. Goofy? You bet! it's "The Batwoman" from 1968, starring Maura Monti, and directed by Mexican-wrestlers-as-superheros stalwart René Cardona.

Barkey talks about Casper's appearances in the cartoons, comic books and movies, and discusses the unlikely rise of this morbid character.
Barkey takes a look at the world of witches this time on "Howl-O-Ween," since he has had yet to do so in previous installments.
