What happens when you mix Skeet Ulrich, Cuba Gooding Jr., a military bioweapon, and an ice cream truck? Jackie and Danielle from No More Late Fees are rewinding to 1999 to revisit the action-thriller Chill Factor—the cult flop that tried to be Speed but ended up frozen in time.

In this episode, we dive into: • The over-the-top plot where “Elvis” must stay below 50 degrees or explode • Skeet Ulrich and Cuba Gooding Jr.’s buddy-action chemistry (or lack thereof) • Box office trivia, critical reception, and why Roger Ebert wasn’t impressed • Behind-the-scenes tidbits and filming locations that may surprise you • Nostalgic throwbacks to late ’90s movie culture, from VHS shelves to cult TV crossovers • Fandom hot takes, quotable moments, and our signature Blockbuster-inspired ratings

If you love nostalgic movie rewatches packed with trivia, funny commentary, and just the right amount of sass, this episode is for you. Don’t forget to subscribe, leave us a review, and share your favorite Chill Factor memories (or rants) with us—we might feature you in a future episode!
