Episode 72. We Are Still the Lords of Salem

The Feminine Critique Podcast ·

2022/10/15

Summon a few vengeful spirits and join us on this spoooooooooky installment as Christine and Emily tackle Rob Zombie’s The Lords of Salem and newcomer Ted Geoghegan’s We Are Still Here. We gently spoil both, but give fair warning and never get too specific about the details. Also of note: lots of talk regarding RuPaul’s Drag Race, because why not? Share your own thoughts over at our Facebook group. And to those who were worried: it’s okay. The dog doesn’t die.

Episode 71. American Informers

The Feminine Critique Podcast ·

2022/10/15

Journey back with the ladies to a simpler time, a time when cocaine ruled the night and hair gel ruled the day. On this very hedonistic episode, Christine and Emily cover Mary Harron’s 2000 adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis’s controversial novel American Psycho, pairing it with Gregor Jordan’s lesser known and loved 2008 adaptation of The Informers. Much kidnapping and missed vampires ensue. Come discuss these films and so much more over at our Facebook group (just search The Feminine Critique) or

Episode 69. Pretty Woman In the Ward

The Feminine Critique Podcast ·

2022/10/15

If you like hand-eating jewelry boxes, non-rapey hospital orderlies, and bad math, then boy is this the episode for you! After an inevitable indictment of the V/H/S series, Christine and Emily dive in back to the start of the ‘90s to see if the cultural icon that is Pretty Woman holds up to 2016 eyes. Up next is John Carpenter’s (sigh) 2010 output, The Ward. We do talk heavily about its ending, but there’s fair warning before we spoil. Share your thoughts on the matter at our Facebook page and

Episode 68. Mouthy Calm

The Feminine Critique Podcast ·

2022/10/15

Do you read Sutter Cane? Because Sam Neill does. And it’s a pretty good bet that Billy Zane does too. When you’re stuck in the middle of the Pacific Ocean with nothing but Nicole Kidman and a terrible dog, these things happen. As you probably guessed, Christine and Emily are tackling 1989’s Dead Calm and 1994’s In the Mouth of Madness. Also, The Darkest Hour is terrible and you shouldn’t waste your life on it.

Episode 67. Teen VVitch

The Feminine Critique Podcast ·

2022/10/15

Spells! Puritans! Butter! It’s a witchtastic episode as Christine and Emily sign the devil’s book, don pretty frocks, and rap their way through 1989’s Teen Witch and 2016’s The W(VV)itch. Fair warning, we do go into fairly substantial depth with the latter and discuss many spoilers, so you’re better off flying your broomstick over to your nearest theater before listening to the second half. Unless you think you’re above it all because you’re the most popular girl. Now that we’ve said these things,

Episode 66. Girl Fighting

The Feminine Critique Podcast ·

2022/10/15

Put up your dukes and maybe your life for this very aggressive episode. It starts with Karyn Kusama’s 2000 film debut Girlfight, a Sundance champion that marked the start of Michelle Rodriguez’s career. Next up is 2013’s Raze, starring the cast of Death Proof and a lot of sweatpants. We apologize for a few technical glitches, which include such hits as “Emily doesn’t understand the mute button,” “Christine’s Skype decides to censor her,” and of course, “seltzer spillage fiasco extraordinaire.” That

Episode 65. Reindeer Places

The Feminine Critique Podcast ·

2022/10/15

Back when she had two arms and a full head of hair, Charlize Theron co-starred in a little film called Reindeer Games. And we watched it. Also up is 2015’s Dark Places, the most recent adaptation of a Gillian Flynn novel. We actually manage to avoid spoiling either film, so fear not…if you had that fear. Share your thoughts on these films and the 937 others that we discuss via our Facebook group or Twitter identity (@femininepodcast). Now go wash that blood off your Santa suit and enjoy.

Episode 64. A Chorus Shoes

The Feminine Critique Podcast ·

2022/10/15

Point your toes and attack it! It’s our super-sized ballet extravaganza, with special guest star Jason Fozzie Nelson and a LOT of headbands. First up is The Archers’ 1948 classic The Red Shoes, featuring lots of dancing and velvet. Up next is 1985’s film adaptation of Broadway’s A Chorus Line, a movie near and dear to two out of three hearts.

Stocking Stuffers 7: Christmas Bounty

The Feminine Critique Podcast ·

2022/10/15

And on the last day of Christmas, my true love brought to me an ABC Family Channel/WWE Studios co-production about bounty hunting, bland love interests, and sassy sidekicks sporting big earrings. That’s right: just because it stars The Miz doesn’t mean it’s not your standard made-for-TV Christmas movie. Christine and Emily hope you enjoyed December’s stocking stuffer series and will return with more challenging films in 2016. Until then, happy holidays!

Stocking Stuffers 6: The Nine Lives of Christmas

The Feminine Critique Podcast ·

2022/10/15

Cats! It’s a Hallmark Christmas movie with cats! Also, Brandon Routh. More importantly, CATS! Naturally, this is a solo Emily joint, since Christine is allergic. Happy holidays!

Stocking Stuffers 5: Once Upon a Holiday

Once upon a time, Emily watched a lot of Christmas Hallmark movies and lived to talk way too much about it. Hopefully, the listeners lived happily enough ever after.

Episode 63. Silent Night(s)

The Feminine Critique Podcast ·

2022/10/15

We sure hope you haven’t been naughty this season, because we’re about to unload more than one homicidal Santa Claus on your snowy butts. First up (well, after an extensive “what we’ve been watching that aren’t Hallmark movies” segment) is 1984’s Silent Night Deadly Night. We follow it up with the 2012 remake (of sorts). PLEASE help explain what happens in the latter. We’re apparently not smart enough to know without you. Chat it up on our Facebook group and happy holidays to all!

Stocking Stuffers 3: Holidaze

The Feminine Critique Podcast ·

2022/10/15

You thought Brenda was tough? Wait til you meet Jennie Garth’s corporate shark of a lead in ABC Family’s Holidaze, an ice queen so thick, it will take an entire small town and the ghost of Mark Twain (sorta) to melt her thick heart. Christine joins Emily in dissecting this 2013 classic. Play along with Netflix Instant Watch and share your thoughts on Facebook. Just don’t be as cute as Jennie Garth. There are rules about that.

Happy December folks! We’re here this week with a super special holiday edition episode where we talk to an expert on the very infinity that is Santa Claus. Naturally, what that actually means is that Infinite Santa 8000 creator Michael Neel joins us to tell us about his super groovy projects.

Stocking Stuffer 1: Christmas Under Wraps

The Feminine Critique Podcast ·

2022/10/15

Some might call those Hallmark Channel holiday movies something akin to coal in your stocking, but that doesn’t make them any less fun to talk about. Over the next month, Christine and Emily will bring you a few of these shorter episodes where we detail the common tropes of such candy cane, anti-workforce cinema. In this first installment, Emily goes solo to break down the ten common requirements of this subgenre using the Candace Cameron-Bure starring Christmas Under Wraps to demonstrate. Stay

2022/10/15

Don’t go to sleep! They get you when you sleep! So instead, how ‘bout listening to our latest episode on 1993’s Body Snatchers and 2015’s Maggie? We promise minimum Arnold impressions but maximum talk of spaghetti tentacles. Share your thoughts over at our Facebook page but please, we ask you nicely, be sure to dustbin your shell afterwards. We like to run a clean ship.
