I Dig Crazy Flicks with CatBusRuss

I Dig Crazy Flicks is the home of "Ninety For Chill". We do not always have the time for a two-hour movie. No one ever wants to sit down and watch a one-hour TV drama knowing that they might end up sticking around for a second (or a third...even a fourth) episode. With this said, 70 to 100 minutes is the ideal runtime. This concise timeframe has given us some of the most rewatchable movies that may not win any Oscars, but are properly fun-sized for the audience. Fun-sized sweets that may be

Samara Weaving week concludes.Outbreak films have been around as early as the original "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" to say the very least, but most of these features focus on humanity being absolutely lost. Lost via body theft by aliens or demons. Individuality vanished due to a disease taking over the body and conscience. What happens when a virus removes your inhibitions and replaces it with madness? CatBusRuss investigates this idea as presented in the 1970s and the 2010s by reviewing

Samara Weaving week continues. Michael Dubois makes his return to the podcast to further express his admiration for Samara Weaving with a discussion about 2019's action satire, "Ready or Not". CatBusRuss goes into this thinking the film was a step down from the quality of "Bill and Ted Face the Music", but only a baby step. Is Samara the next Uma Thurman? We will find that out.

Michael Dubois comes back to the podcast to discuss the most excellent trilogy when it comes to doing fan service right, "Bill & Ted". If only Disney had thought about giving "The Rise of Skywalker" to Keanu Reeves and Alex Winters, the galaxy would be what Rufus and Kenobi would consider tranquil. What is there not to like about these films? There is casual homophobia in the first two, but it is fleeting and these films course correct perfectly as they go along. But because

A movie with Christopher Guest and Andre the Giant, how could CatBusRuss⁠ resist?Ninety For Chill's guest said this was a feature that she knew so well, that she did not require a rewatch.

If there is a master of spotting subtle horror on Shudder, it is Gregory Carl. This week he suggested a film that has a horror-worthy premise with "The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane" featuring a 14 year-old Jodie Foster. It is a feature that turns the seemingly defenseless adolescent premise on its head while maintaining all that 1970s creepiness in all its glory.

Would the billing order have been right?With "Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire" being released this week, our host decided to get audiences prepared with all of Ninety For Chill's conversations about "Ghostbuster" movies where the lineup is not totally female.

It is never too late to start the New Year. Some people hope to just get out of their comfort zone. That is the goal of Brandy Stonum, or should we call her HappyBeebsMeowMeow. With a Twitch handle like that, watching a movie where a feline plays a big role seemed perfect. So CatBusRuss was able to bend the rules of the podcast a bit, Han Solo style, and allowed Henry Selick's Neil Gaiman adaptation, "Coraline", be the focus of the show.

ThePoeticCritic and CatBusRuss take you on a journey ranging from the Criterion Channel's Saturday Matinees for the smart kids to the directors with obsessions of dreamlike environments. The Spanish animated gem "Nocturna" and Wes Craven's "A Nightmare on Elm St" serve as bookends to this narrative that does quite a bit of juxtaposition of features like "The Never Ending Story" and "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas".

(With Jim Carrey's rubberface, we would be consider that to be syfy.) The guy who was the blue alien may draw TPC out, but Peter Weller seems to have an ability to capture CatBusRuss's attention. Throw in some Clancy Brown, and he will be there. Needless to say, our host has the Shout! Factory's

For the first time since CatBusRuss started making the annual trip to Evanston, ThePoeticCritic accompanied her little brother to B-Fest. It is a celebration of “The Best of the Worst” in motion pictures. That is a bit of hyperbole, and the two siblings will try to support that claim with there recap of the events. B-Fest at least met our host’s expectations. Bad musicals (The Apple), some deep hurting (She-Devils on Wheels), kaiju (Tammy and the T-Rex), and roller skates (The Monkey Hospital). If

The feature is the Robert Rodriguez directed (and Quentin Tarantino co-penned) "From Dusk Till Dawn". This of course means that to cover this feature, CouchMan and CatBusRuss must partake in a marathon. For the most part, Rodriguez's movies have fairly tight runtimes, so our host should have had no

These faults include: car issues, difficulty finding guests for the show and balancing them with his dating life, and enduring another "far right" kick. Comedy is the key term in that paragraph.

For a 22 year-old CatBusRuss, I needed something to further bury the memory of "Freddy Got Fingered". Stealing Harvard (2002) was directed by "The Kids in the Hall" alumnus Bruce McCulluch and stars "Mallrat" Jason Lee, MTV star Tom Green, Judd Apatow muse Leslie Mann, and
