God’s Not Dead 2 – Dare Daniel Podcast Episode 56
“You could definitely say that God’s Not Dead feeds the persecution complex of evangelical Christians. God’s Not Dead 2 takes that complex to Golden Corral.”
Left coast elitist Daniel Barnes and evil ACLU lawyer Corky McDonnell take away the hope with their review of Harold Cronk’s berserkly neurotic God’s Not Dead 2. The 2016 sequel delivers more of that old Cronk magic, amping up both the star power and the paranoid Christian hysteria.
God’s Not Dead 2 returns many of our “favorites” from the original film, including the loathsome Pastor Dave and a cancer-free Liberal Amy. Like its predecessor, God’s Not Dead 2 wants to use science to discredit science, presenting scripture as “facts” while also applying a “minimal facts method.” Meanwhile, the movie portrays the Deep South as a hotbed of anti-Christian fervor. Naturally, this all leads to a Kafka-esque sham trial imagined by someone who watched parts of two Law & Order episodes.
Elsewhere, Daniel and Corky discuss Copernicus moments, closet Christians and Ray Wise headshots.

“Love on a Leash” Podcast Movie Review
https://daredaniel.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/DareDanielE057S01.mp3
Love on a Leash – Dare Daniel Podcast Episode 57
“My name is Alvin Flang.”
Film critic Daniel Barnes and comedian Corky McDonnell meet ineptitude with ineptitude in this technical issue-laden episode. This week, the hosts review Fen Tian’s unfathomably incompetent romantic comedy Love on a Leash. Fitting with a film that features myriad sound issues, Daniel and Corky bungled the audio on this one. However, it weirdly harmonizes with a movie that is essentially one bonkers nonsequitur after another.
A movie so dangerous that it doesn’t even have a Wikipedia page, Love on a Leash is a truly unusual experience. Tian makes some of the most confounding, insane and possibly brilliant (but definitely insane) directorial decisions you could imagine. There is no musical score, but there is a credited composer. This light-hearted rom-com fantasy gives us scenes of attempted suicide and attempted rape, not to mention a tacit approval of bestiality. Also, the villain is a pond.
Technically, Love on a Leash is the highest-rated film of all-time on IMDB (thanks, internet!). But is it fake news, or is it the real deal?
Elsewhere, Daniel and Corky discuss pointless ducks, Judge Reinhold high-fives, Ace bandage bras and pizza-faced cinderblocks.

Critic scores: n/a
This week’s craft beer: Lead Dog Brewing‘s The Dankster Double IPA (8.8% ABV)
This week’s darer: Erica Shultz, host of the Customers Also Watched podcast
Why did Erica dare Daniel and Corky to watch Love on a Leash? “This movie is a triumph of ineptitude. There is no score or soundtrack, nothing makes sense, characters are color-coded, and everything is just hilariously bad. It’s a train wreck from which you can’t look away.”
IMDB synopsis: “Love takes a furry twist in this slice of romantic comedy. A young woman falls for a stray dog with a secret: by night, it becomes a man. Follow the journey of the golden retriever and the friend who gives him a home.”
This week’s referenced movies: Forbidden Kiss; Look Who’s Talking Now; Theodore Rex; Like Father, Like Son; Vice Versa; Love Actually; Psycho (1960); Fargo; Goodfellas; 1917; Teen Wolf (1985); The Room; The Social Network; The Wizard of Oz (1939)
Ratings: Daniel – Double Dare; Corky – Double Dare
