This week on The 3 Retro Movie Geeks, the dream team is finally back together as Scott returns to join Paul and Rob for a deep dive into the wildly inventive 80s sci-fi comedy Innerspace (1987). With the full crew reunited, expect plenty of laughs, nostalgic banter, and a proper celebration of one of the decade’s most unique adventures.
We shrink down and explore the story of hotshot pilot Tuck Pendleton, accidentally injected into hypochondriac supermarket clerk Jack Putter, and the chaos that follows. From Dennis Quaid’s swagger to Martin Short’s brilliant comedic performance, we break down what makes this film such a perfect blend of action, comedy, and cutting-edge visual effects for its time.
We also dig into the film’s groundbreaking practical effects, its place in the Amblin-style era of filmmaking, and why Innerspace still feels fresh and fun today. Plus, with Scott back in the chair, the chemistry is firing on all cylinders as the guys revisit favourite scenes, quotes, and behind-the-scenes trivia.
So buckle up, miniaturise yourself, and join us for a hilarious and heartfelt trip inside one of the 80s’ most underrated classics.
