The Undiscovered Decade is back with yet another “hidden” gem: One of the most infamous cinematic disasters landed in December 1995. Geena Davis starred as dastardly pirate Morgan Adams alongside dashing doctor William Shaw (Matthew Modine). Adams enlists Shaw to help track down some buried treasure all while being pursued by her villainous uncle "Dawg" Brown (Frank Langella). Will they succeed where Adams' father failed, or while Brown hunt them down before they reach.…..

The Undiscovered Decade is back with yet another “hidden” gem: Freddy Gale (Jack Nicholson) plays a jeweler bereft with the loss of his daughter Emily due to a drunk driver. Lost inside strip clubs and alcohol, he stumbles along waiting for the day when the man responsible is released from prison. John Booth (David Morse) does not know he will be targeted for vengeance, but when they first meet Freddy's assassination plot fumbles on the goal line.

The Undiscovered Decade is back with yet another “hidden” gem: After both Brodie (Jason Lee) and T.S. (Jeremy London) are dumped by their girlfriends, they go to the best possible place in the '90s that could cheer them up: the mall! Throughout their time there, they stumble across a number of fascinating shoppers, such as William (Ethan Suplee), who just wants to figure out a Magic Eye poster, and Shannon (Ben Affleck), a clothing store manager who has it out for Brodie.

The Undiscovered Decade is back with yet another “hidden” gem: Street-level drug dealer Strike Dunham (Mekhi Phifer) finds himself in trouble with the police when another dealer gets murdered. The investigation, led by Rocco Klein (Harvey Keitel) is left to pin the crime on Strike's brother Victor (Isaiah Washington). Rocco believes that there's a bigger fish to fry, however - local drug lord Rodney Little (Delroy Lindo).

The Undiscovered Decade is back with yet another “hidden” gem: After a cult implodes while playing around with the occult, the dust settles on magician Philip Swann (Kevin J. O'Connor). His popular show draws the attraction of people around the world, including private detective Harry D'Amour (Scott Bakula). While D'Amour snoops around Los Angeles, he discovers that the cult might just re-emerge under the tutelage of undead leader William Nix (Daniel von Bargen).

The Undiscovered Decade is back with yet another “hidden” gem: One of the most controversial films of the '90s, this difficult to find picture showcases the daily lives of NYC miscreants as they wander through Manhattan looking for new ways to get high and new people to hook up with. Tully (Leo Fitzpatrick) and Casper (Justin Pierce) skateboard around town and pick up friends and drugs along the way.

The Undiscovered Decade is back with yet another “hidden” gem: In the jungle hunting for diamonds, a team with disparate goals comes together to face a terrible force - evil gorillas! Karen Ross (Laura Linney) is a telecommunications executive tasked with uncovering the diamonds for energy, but her team includes a philanthropist (Tim Curry) out for monetary gain, a mercenary (Ernie Hudson) who can be bought by the highest dollar, and a primatologist (Dylan Walsh) intrigued by the possibility of discovering a new species of gorilla, one who guards the diamonds for an ancient society in the lost city of Zinj.…..

The Undiscovered Decade is back with yet another “hidden” gem: Told in a series of flashbacks by newly engaged couple Andy (Joe Mantegna) and Liz (Cynthia Stevenson), we learn of the back-and-forth worldwind romance of NBA referee Mickey Gordon (Billy Crystal) and American expatriate Ellen Andrews (Debra Winger). Their constant selfishness almost always gets in the way, but every story ends either in absolute disaster or pure bliss.

The Undiscovered Decade is back with yet another “hidden” gem: Sergio (John Leguizamo) has a burning passion for Hattie (Sadie Frost). The one issue is that he has no money to take her to all the places around the world to which she wants to travel. When his boss has a desperate idea to burn down their pastry shop, Sergio talks him out of it...but the next morning they find the bakery burnt to a crisp anyway!

Episode 1 ("One Year Later")- It's been a perennial since the inclement rebellion on Cassian Andor's (Diego Luna) residential planet and the seeds of discontent continue to be reaped. 'Star Wars' fanboys whose sole preoccupations are lightsaber battles and Skywalker callbacks will be crestfallen by how sophisticated and highbrow Tony Gilroy's empire expansion is. Cassian is no longer a conscientious pacifist to the cause.

To critique this revival for being disjointed and uneven is fairly accurate. But it is the season finale that lingers in the memories of viewers, not the mottled journey to arrive there. Vanessa's skullduggery behind the assassination of Foggy was a limpid revelation that most audience members deciphered episodes ago. The confirmation of our suspicions was a foregone conclusion. Somehow, Vincent D'Onofrio in his silky white dress shirt looks more intimidatingly broad-shouldered than ever.

With only two episodes left, can this tailspin for Born Again be rectified? The general population scenario with Bullseye is a framework for another oner like The Punisher in season 2 of the Netflix incarnation but it is a cul-de-sac with none of the exhilarating choreography of that set piece. Is Heather really such a densely obtuse analyst that she can't differentiate between Muse and Daredevil at this point?

Previously on 'Daredevil: Born Again', the viewers' appetites were whetted by a seismic scuffle between the visually impaired crusader and the genocidal Muse. After much dawdling, the show is finally nitrogenized on an inextricable collision course. It's burdensome on the viewers to reconcile a solemn conversation in the mayor's office with the comic-book nomenclature Muse and Daredevil being bandied about. …

The Undiscovered Decade is back with yet another “hidden” gem: Murder most foul has eclipsed the lives of the residents of a small remote island in Maine! An elderly woman found at the bottom of a staircase sparks a debate whether her caretaker was responsible for her death, swirling up memories from the past....and another mysterious demise. Adapted from a Stephen King novel, Kathy Bates plays the downtrodden domestic, who doesn't seem keen on even defending herself against the local constable (Christopher Plummer).

Last week's episode was an elongation of the foreplay that has been gradually decelerating this season. The tie-in to 'Ms. Marvel' and Kamal's branch-manager father is among the most extraneous callbacks that the show has foisted upon us. Brandishing a Funko Pop of her is merely Disney's synergistic product placement. It isn't a powderkeg scenario when the bank robbers are such dunces that they don't immediately lock the doors and the ringleader isn't skeptical as to why Matt Murdock isn't eager for "emancipation".

The fringes of Hell's Kitchen have been formicating with Punisher acolytes but the cliffhanger of the previous episode confirmed that Frank Castle and his vigilante goose-steppers are alive and thriving. A collision between The Man Without Fear and The Punisher is inevitable but the delayed gratification is becoming plodding. When Castle (Jon Bernthal) finally materializes into an abandoned edifice lair, it is unceremoniously slapdash.

After two stellar episodes, can 'Born Again' maintain the kinetic momentum? The answer is a muddled yes and no. The trial of Hector has begun and as an epitaph to the deceased Kamar de los Reyes, his delivery about the native fauna is outstandingly lyrical. Meanwhile, the mask of civility on Wilson Fisk has finally creased and buckled with the foreshadowing hint of bruised knuckles.

The Undiscovered Decade is back with yet another “hidden” gem: Gerry Garner (Aaron Schwartz) is forced by his parents to attend fat camp over the summer, but it’s not quite what he expected! Camp Hope is a body positive place, where counselors such as Pat Finley (Tom McGowan) are happy to help you lose weight if that’s what works! Unfortunately, the fun is short lived when fitness entrepreneur Tony Perkis (Ben Stiller) takes over the helm and institutes a strict diet and exercise on the campers.

The opening subway shakedown is a visceral mission that a crusader would normally thwart but the situation is infuscated by a tenebrious turn with police officers and a graphic railway demise. Fisk's historical fascination with LaGuardia solidifies that he is polymathic about the storied trajectory of the city. As for Daredevil, the episode is a flex of how Murdock's attorney skills are juxtaposed in tandem with his pulse lie detector and eavesdropping on the courtroom chatter.

Retooling isn't an anomaly for productions but Marvel and Disney are infamous for their officious meddling with properties due to the capricious winds of the zeitgeist. In the case of 'Daredevil: Born Again', many (including myself) were presumptuous that the reshoots were mandated to knead or coddle the grungy nature of the Netflix series into a show that would acculturate into Disney+'s overview of philoprogenitive family programming.

Another year is in the books, and we have a lot of admirable winners this season! Some pictures are unsung throughout awards season, and that's one of the hallmarks of the Golden Raptors throughout our history. This year we've ended up highlighting two of the more underrated films - and while they were often near the tops of people's lists, they didn't always walk away with gold.

Welcome once again to the Golden Raptor Awards! This is our 24th year, believe it or not, and we’ve no signs of stopping! We're quite pressed for time this year, as the Oscars are earlier than the last few, and several projects delayed me. It was all worth the wait, and I hope you're intrigued to see who is up for this year's awards!

The Undiscovered Decade is back with yet another “hidden” gem: Strap in boys and ghouls, we're taking on one of the strangest aspects of the 1990s - Tales from the Crypt! In January 1995, the horror franchise attempted to expand to the big screen with this spooky story of demons and angels clashing in a backwater town. Billy Zane and William Sadler star as the supernatural stars, with a gaggle of oddballs, including two played by Jada Pinkett and Thomas Haden Church.

For the latest episode of the Undiscovered Decade podcast, we’re doing something a little different. Over the past year, we’ve looked back at the hidden gems of each month from the year 1994, sometimes on the thirtieth anniversary of those films! Today we take a look back at those twelve episodes of our fifth season and talk about how it’s going so far.
