Episode 222 - Killer Joe
Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we explore some of cinema’s biggest box failures and decide if they deserve a second chance.
Listener Request Month rolls on as Troy and Brad welcome back Sammy of the GGTMC to take on one of the most intense films the podcast has ever covered. This week, we're headed to the trailer park with a big bucket of the Colonel’s famous chicken in hand to dive into the 2011/2012 Southern Neo-Noir, Killer Joe. Brace yourself—this film is not for the faint of heart. It's brutal, violent, and pushes boundaries, fully earning its NC-17 rating. The gang covers everything from the best fried chicken to Matthew McConaughey’s chilling performance, and even debates if this might be the movie that broke the Movie Guide scale. Killer Joe is unforgettable, but definitely not for everyone—proceed with caution.
Killer Joe is directed by William Friedkin and stars Matthew McConaughey, Emile Hirsch, Juno Temple, Gina Gershon, and Thomas Haden Chruch.

Episode 208 - Conan the Barbarian (2011)
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.
Today, we celebrate four years of bad impressions, terrible jokes, and questionable movie opinions. We couldn't be more excited to invite Sammy from the GGTMC, who was one of the podcast's biggest inspirations.
Grab your broadsword and slip into your sandals! Not A Bomb is launching "Sword and Sandals" month with the 2011 reboot, Conan the Barbarian. Throughout the episode, we can’t help but gush over Jason Momoa and his impressive physique…oh…and those two honey-baked hams on his backside. Seriously, it's time well spent! When we're not admiring Momoa, we delve into whether this often-overlooked entry in the Conan saga deserves all of the bad reviews and lackluster fanfare. Spoiler alert: our verdict on this film might surprise you!
Conan the Barbarian (2011) is directed by Marcus Nispel and stars Jason Momoa, Rachel Nichols, Stephen Lang, Rose McGowan, Said Taghmaoui, Leo Howard, Bob Sapp, and Ron Perlman.

Episode 199 - mother!
Welcome back to your favorite podcast about some of the biggest bombs in film history! This week’s episode explores the enigmatic and divisive world of 2017’s fantasy, drama - “mother!”
