2024/01/06

Oh shit- it's season 5! and another year! We're starting off with a month of Jamie Lee (become a patron to find out how come) and this little movie that we'd never heard of is nice little bit of turn-of-the-decade upper-middle class paranoia/psychosexual family thriller. Of course, you'll be reminded of Fatal Attraction, Poison Ivy, Single White Female -- basically any other "crazy b-word" film of the time -- but this one has Jamie Lee. Thanks for sticking with

Well dear listeners, here we have come to the end of another season together. To close it out, we bring you a foreign film in a foreign land: Three Fugitives (1989) We find the unlikely duo of Nick Nolte and Martin Short forced to team up to evade police and save Short's little girl. Naturally, many many hijinks are had. We also discuss physical acting theory and Cpt. Janeway's hairpiece. Plus we try to summarize our feelings about season 4.

2023/12/23

Heyo- This week we bring you a film that's long been on our list: Postcards from the Edge (1990). Based on Carrie Fischer's semi-autobiographical novel of the same name, the movie follows a middle-aged daughter of a famous actress who is herself an actress struggling to find herself while also navigating addiction, the industry, horrible men and her mother. You will also hear about Keith's long lost connection to the industry, hot takes on Australians, CCH Pounder's accent and

2023/12/16

Greetings sports fans! This week we bring you arguably John Waters' most widely viewed film: Serial Mom (1994). Pitch perfect performances really sell this tale of a middle class white lady from the Baltimore 'burbs who erases anyone that gets on her bad side. Plus, per usual, we shit on some of our favorite Hollywood bastards to hate, reference porn and praise Kathy Bates bravura boobies (RIP). Typical. Let's All Go to the Lobby (B.A.N. remix) T.J.

Well, well, will you look at that. Another movie in which a young white person lies to get ahead in the world. Michael J. Fox plays a white kid from Kansas driven to make a bunch of money off the backs of others (aka, The American Dream). But he wants to get to the top on his own merits. That's why he calls in favors to a distant uncle. and then his aunt. whom he's sleeping with. And Helen Slater is there. I'm very tired. Please enjoy. 'Walking On Sunshine': Living on a

Ep 4.48 - Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead

2023/12/02

GD it if it ain't another Dysfunctional December! To start it off we watched Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead (1991). Despite a somewhat cliche failing-upwards/"Fawlty Towers plot" initial premise, it avoids many of the expected tropes and delivers some surprising charm and believable growth for Christina Applegate's lead. As a result, our conversation naturally turned towards manila envelopes vs Nilla wafers & leavening the whole lump. This episode brought to

Here we are driving a stake through the heart of Nosferatu November with Michael Mann's The Keep (1983). And what a great way to go out! What do you get when you cross the creator of Miami Vice with Nazis at the height of their hubris encountering an ancient supernatural evil in Dracula's homeland? We couldn't tell you. You'll just have to see for yourself. Meanwhile, stay safe and watch out for busters! JoBlo Horror Originals: Michael Mann's Horror Debut Siskel &

After The Addiction, we had a bad taste in our mouths. But this film was a Mentos for the senses! We have Hartley alumni Donovan and Löwensohn plus an impressive supporting cast that includes a surprisingly fun Peter Fonda and an sadly brief Jared Harris. Building on Bram Stoker's source material and set in contemporary NYC, this movie manages be funny, charming, heavy, and technical craftiness without veering to far into navel-gazing. We give it three chef's kisses! +++++ Intro: by

Ep 4.45 - The Addiction (failed metaphor = farce)

Z and Keith Watched A Movie ·

2023/11/11

Blah! Our second entry for Nosferatu November is 1995's The Addiction. From the same writer/director team that brought you The King of New York comes this b&w philosophical wank--I mean meditation on the nature of man's relationship to addiction. Only not really. Along the way we weigh in on internalized victim blaming, Natalie Wynn, and I Shot Andy Warhol (again). Your welcome (again).

2023/11/04

Welcome, creatures of the night, to Nosferatu November! We begin with The Lost Boys (1987). In this episode we question whether it's Schumacher movies or vampires that are inevitably disappointing? Plus we reminisce about video rental stores and can't help but touch upon the history of the Coreys. Synergistically, on the same day we finished editing this ep, Minty Comedic Arts published a video about the version of The Lost Boys that never was. Check it out here. Tell'm Z & Keith

But we are ending on a favorite: Event Horizon (1997) One of the few films in our estimation to successfully blend horror and scifi (especially post- Alien) without sacrificing one or the other.

We were delighted by this movie that we knew next to nothing about. 1986's Trick or Treat (aka Ragman, aka, Death at 33 RPM) serves Faustian themes vs the PMRC, Skippy meets Satanic panic. Great effects and solid performances allows this film to punch above its weight. In Sammi's

2023/09/30

What a day! But it's finally time to punch out. We've made it to the end of a month of films loosely about working. And what a high note to end on! Clockwatchers (1997) is one of those nearly forgotten gems of 90's indie filmmaking. Amazing cast, great dialogue, beautifully shot and covering a subject matter from a fresh perspective, i.e., the sweet-spot.

Is it the late '80's sequel to 9 to 5? Is it the sassy sister film to Die Hard? Is it an accurate representation of Long Island aesthetics of the day? These and many other questions are left unanswered as we discuss Working Girl (1988). On our second viewing we noticed some nuance to the messaging we had missed on our first go (pre-pod). Plus Z attempts to describe some of the intricacies of Shawnee language. Feel the burn! +++++ Intro: by Professor Ping available on Bandcamp Outro:

Emilio and Charlie team up to share zero chemistry in this series of events that rarely have meaning or consequences. Picture Weekend at Bernie's without the raw animal charm of Silverman and McCarthy. Imagine every 80's trope (including passing a dead guy off as just really inebriated) presumed dead, shoved into an oil drum, sealed improperly and dumped into the cinematic water supply. +++++ Intro: by Professor Ping available on Bandcamp Outro: The Trashwomen performing I'm Trash ---
