Beyond Synth - 458 - Bad Boys 3: Halloween with Miami Nights 1984, Lazerhawk, and System Glow
4 hr 10 min
Happy Halloween! The Bad Boys are back as Andy joins Miami Nights 1984, Lazerhawk, and System Glow for four hours of spooky tunes and highly questionable conversation. There’s a Toronto meetup to revisit, arcade grievances to settle, and an argument about AI-assisted PC ports before we get to the evening’s main attraction. This time, the boys watched Vibrations (1996), a film about a musician who loses his hands and eventually reinvents himself as the robotic rave sensation Cyberstorm. Along the way: Christina Applegate, cyborg fingers, an enthusiastic explanation of techno, and some truly bewildering shifts in tone. Andy has several concerns about this movie. Miami Nights has several concerns about Andy’s concerns. Everyone would probably benefit from more Cyberstorm. There’s also some unfinished Turbulence 3 business, including an email from a man who says he was originally cast as Slade Craven! Then it’s time for Halloween Topic Roulette, covering horror movies and practical effects, pizza toppings, AI brain rot, personal projects, elaborate toilets, and the deeply troubling existence of mac-and-cheese-flavoured soda. All this, plus 18 tracks to accompany your Halloween activities. Godspeed, Spider-Man.
