The Butcher Shop

The Torchy’s boys head to California for this installment when we cover the flick that boomed the buddy cop genre into high gear with 48 Hours. Nick Nolte is a hard nosed cop who’s dealing with two escaped baddies. He needs the help of Reggie Hammond (Eddie Murphy) to find these cop killers and have some animosity and laughs along the way. This film brings back Walter Hill alums James Remar, Sonny Landham, Peter Jason and Brion James back into the fold. The hits and the gunfire are aplenty in this gem.

What is The Butcher Shop?

A multi-genre podcast where Gary and his co-hosts (Iris Walters, Suzanne Cappelletti and Jamie Sammons) put two films that share a thread on the table and talk about them with a bit of banter and laughter at each other’s expense.
