Escape The Tapes

Ep 46: Wild Wild West (1999)

Thomas Massey & Brittany Vaughn

Saddle up, folks — this week we’re diving spurs-first into Wild Wild West (1999), where cowboy hats, steam-powered nonsense, and giant robotic spiders collide in a fever dream of late-90s chaos. We unpack the camp, the cringe, the one liners, and the cinematic choices that made this movie a head-scratcher and a cult classic all in one. Plus: Kenneth Branagh’s accent, Will Smith’s charm, and saloon-style side-eyes.
