The Warriors (1979): Can Nat Convince Katie to Watch It?! | The VHS Club Ep. 145

Tonight on The VHS Club, we're doing things a little differently. And by differently, we mean Katie didn't watch the movie. 😂

In a truly historic turn of events, Nat did her homework, Katie did not, and somehow even Val has already seen this one. WHAT IS HAPPENING?!

This week, we're tackling the 1979 cult classic The Warriors, directed by Walter Hill. But instead of our usual movie review, we're playing a little game called SELL KATIE ON THE WARRIORS!

Nat has one job: convince Katie (and anyone else who hasn't seen it) that The Warriors is an essential piece of '70s cinema that she absolutely needs to watch.

Katie's job? Ask ridiculous questions, challenge the logic of everything, and decide whether this movie is a cinematic masterpiece or just a bunch of grown men in matching outfits running around New York City.

We're talking about:

• The story of nine gang members trying to get home through a very hostile NYC
• The Baseball Furies and some of the most bizarre gang costumes in movie history
• Why the New York City subway is practically a character of its own
• Wild behind-the-scenes stories from filming in 1970s New York
• Iconic lines like "Warriors… come out to play!" and "Can you dig it?!"
• Why this movie became such a beloved cult classic

And of course, the Tater Tots get to weigh in! Help Nat make her case, challenge her arguments, and decide whether Katie needs to add The Warriors to her watchlist.

By the end of the episode, Katie will deliver her completely uninformed (but very confident) verdict:

Would I actually watch this movie?
