* TheAlcoholic: '''John'''. It's PlayedForLaughs.

* CultClassic: [[invoked]] John has reviewed some of them both good and bad. In fact they take up over half the show. Some that he's reviewed are ''Film/TheExorcist, Film/{{In The Mouth Of Madness}}, Film/BigTroubleInLittleChina, Film/PrinceOfDarkness, Film/TheThing1982, Film/JasonAndTheArgonauts, Film/{{Troll 2}}, [[Film/{{Braindead}} Dead Alive]], Film/BadTaste, Film/BillAndTedsExcellentAdventure, Film/Plan9FromOuterSpace, Film/FaceOff, Film/SilverBullet, Film/ManosTheHandsOfFate, Film/UniversalSoldier'' and ''Film/EvilDead2''.

* {{Jerkass}}[=/=]JerkWithAHeartOfGold: John, towards Bruce and (sometimes) Maggot Man.

* TheProfessor: Bruce... [[KnowNothingKnowItAll supposedly]].
* {{Sequelitis}}: [[invoked]] Played straight for ''Film/RoboCop3, Film/ANightmareOnElmStreetPart2FreddysRevenge, Film/ConanTheDestroyer, Film/UniversalSoldierTheReturn'', etc. Averted with the ''Camp Blood'' sequels, the first one was bad and it just keeps getting worse from there.
%% * SoBadItsGood: [[invoked]] ''Film/{{Zardoz}}'', ''Film/BattlefieldEarth'', ''Film/Plan9FromOuterSpace'', ''Film/HalloweenIIISeasonOfTheWitch'', ''Film/NoRetreatNoSurrender'', ''Film/{{Troll 2}}'', ''Film/{{Starcrash}}'', ''Film/{{Hangman}}'', ''Film/{{Cobra}}'', ''Film/{{Commando}}'', ''Film/ANightmareOnElmStreetPart2FreddysRevenge'', most of the ''Film/GodfreyHoNinjaMovies'', ''Film/HerculesInNewYork'', the ''Film/CampBlood'' series, ''Kingdom of Gladiators'', ''Death Run', etc. It'd be easier to name Shitcased movies that aren't SoBadItsGood.

* AbortedArc: The first two seasons featured a semblance of a storyline (''Film/BackToTheFuture'' style).

''Shitcase Cinema'' is a comical look on most of the well-known and obscure movies reviewed by two British guys named John and Bruce, who is supposedly a professor, yet John [[ButtMonkey constantly beats on him.]] Also, he also loves [[BadassMustache mustaches.]]

* CultClassic: [[invoked]] John has reviewed some of them both good and bad. In fact they take up over half the show. Some that he's reviewed are ''Film/TheExorcist, Film/InTheMouthOfMadness, Film/BigTroubleInLittleChina, Film/PrinceOfDarkness, Film/TheThing1982, Film//JasonAndTheArgonauts, Film/{{Troll 2}}, [[Film/{{Braindead}} Dead Alive]], Film/BadTaste, Film/BillandTedsExcellentAdventure, Film/Plan9FromOuterSpace, Film/FaceOff, Film/SilverBullet, Film/ManosTheHandsOfFate, Film/UniversalSoldier'' and ''Film/EvilDead2''.
