Welcome to your favorite spooky podcast about some of scariest cinematic bombs!
On this week’s thrilling episode, the gang bids a bittersweet farewell to the spookiest season of the year—yes, Spooktober is coming to a close. But hold on to your hats, folks, because this episode might have more tricks than treats! Our intrepid crew takes us deep into the realm of science fiction as they discuss the 2007 horror film The Invasion. Now, this motion picture marks the fourth cinematic adaptation of the 1955 novel “The Body Snatchers,” and stars none other than Nicole Kidman, alongside a pre-007 Daniel Craig, as they battle a world teeming with—you guessed it—body-snatching aliens!
Joining the crew for this out-of-this-world discussion is Sammy from the GGTMC, and let me tell you, folks, things get wild fast. The conversation spirals into a chaotic frenzy—one so bizarre, it’s been described as, and I quote, ‘like someone farting into your can of oatmeal.’ Now, if that doesn’t paint a picture, I don’t know what will!
So, dim the lights and prepare yourself for this light-hearted yet outlandish dive into The Invasion. It's all happening on the Not A Bomb Podcast—where absurdity reigns supreme, and the scares? Well, they're a little less than terrifying. Stay tuned!
The Invasion is directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel and stars Nicole Kidman, Daniel Craig, Jeremy Northam, and Jeffery Wright.

Welcome back to the most ghoulish podcast about some of your favorite cinematic bombs
Spooky season is officially here, and Troy and Brad are diving headfirst into the blaxploitation horror classic, Bones, from 2001. Featuring the one and only D-O-Double-G, Snoop Dogg, alongside the iconic Pam Grier, this film delivers a powerful exploration of urban life, drug culture, and the bold declaration of “killing the white people first!” It’s a gritty horror experience that packs a punch.
With Pam Grier at the helm, you know you're in for a treat. Bones may be an often-overlooked gem of the early 2000s, but don't let its surface-level charm fool you—after our discussion, you might just find it’s Not A Bomb.
The film proudly wears its Italian horror influences, drawing inspiration from the likes of Dario Argento and Lucio Fulci, weaving unsettling dream sequences that keep you on edge. So grab your popcorn, dim the lights, and get ready for a thrilling ride through this captivating urban nightmare—because this film is definitely worth your time!
Bones is directed by Ernest Dickerson and stars Snoop Dogg (Two G’s), Pam Grier, Khalil Kain, Clifton Powell, Bianca Lawson, and Michael T. Weiss.

Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we dive into some of cinema's biggest box office failures and explore whether they deserve a second chance!
As the spooky season unfolds, Troy and Brad tackle the supernatural horror film of 2023, The Exorcist: Believer. This sixth installment in the Exorcist series, directed by David Gordon Green, treats horror fans as if they’ve never experienced a well-crafted scare before. It’s baffling how a film can simultaneously recycle horror clichés while attempting to address themes of faith with all the finesse of a sledgehammer. Let’s face it: this movie is a mess, and the guys don’t hold back in their critique, exposing the film’s glaring flaws and their hatred of David Gordon Green. Save yourself the frustration; instead of subjecting yourself to this cinematic disappointment, seek out a genuinely good horror film that respects the genre, your intelligence, and your time.
The Exorcist: Believer is directed by David Gordon Green and stars Leslie Odom Jr., Lidya Jewett, Olivia O’Neill, Jennifer Nettles, Norbert Leo Butz, Ann Dowd, and Ellen Burstyn

Spooky season has arrived, and what’s more haunting than films that flopped at the box office? We’re kicking off Spooktober with Troy’s favorite actor, Tom Cruise, and his 2017 fantasy action-adventure The Mummy. Joined by frequent guest Sammy of the GGTMC, the crew gets “wrapped up” in a lively discussion. Troy quizzes the gang on their favorite Cruise movies (no shame here!), and they dive deep into some lesser-known gems from the actor’s career. Eventually, they unravel the mystery of The Mummy itself—packed with all the classic Tom Cruise charm. With a mere 15% on Rotten Tomatoes and the title of Cruise’s lowest-rated film, could The Mummy actually be “Not A Bomb”? Tune in and find out!
The Mummy (2017) is directed Alex Kurtzman and stars Tom Cruise, Annabelle Wallis, Sofia Boutella, Jake Johnson, Courtney B. Vance, Marwan Kenzari and Russell Crowe
