Our second episode in the Halloween Series features Saw II as we continue our journey through the Saw franchise.

Episode 38: Halloween Series (1) SAW

Blood and Black Rum Podcast - A Cult Film / Horror... ·

2016/09/21

Our Halloween Series this year takes on all seven of the Saw films, and we start in chronological order with Saw. This was the first in this torture porn genre and arguably the best, with the most manageable plot that focused less on gore than twisty puzzles. However, there are still a lot of problems stylistically and rudimentarily, and we definitely point those out. It's Martin's first time watching a Saw film! --- Send in a voice message:

Episode 37: Wherein TENEBRAE Corrupts Us

Blood and Black Rum Podcast - A Cult Film / Horror... ·

2016/09/14

Tenebrae is a highly renowned giallo film, recently released on a single-disc Blu-Ray by Synapse Films. Dario Argento's direction is fantastic in this whodunnit about a novelist targeted by a sadistic killer using his latest novel as inspiration, and many themes are prominent throughout this slow burn that uses death as an art form. We talk about giallo in general first, then dive into Tenebrae itself - its metacommentary, its ideas about human corruption and depravity, and of course the non-Goblin

Episode 36: Wherein We Attempt To STAY ALIVE

2016/09/08

Stay Alive is a terrible film made by people who apparently don't know anything about video games, and in this episode we discuss the logistics of the film's game, the horrid acting and directing, and contemplate how the film got released to theaters in the first place. Stay Alive is one of those movies that is so bad that it's just plain bad, and we talk about for an exorbitant amount of time. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bloodandblackrum/message Support

Episode 35: Gene Wilder Tribute/YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN

2016/09/01

Gene Wilder recently passed away, and in tribute to his career, we pay our respects with this episode. We discuss his filmography including Blazing Saddles, The Producers, and Willy Wonka, and then we dive into the movie of the week - Young Frankenstein. A comedy classic with homage to Universal monster films, this satirical film is nearly perfect, with tons of subtle comedy and a good story to boot. Thanks for everything, Gene Wilder. --- Send in a voice message:

2016/08/25

In continuation of our Jeff Goldblum month, we take a look at the 1978 remake Invasion of the Body Snatchers, starring a young Donald Sutherland and Brooke Adams as they run from people who look normal, but who are really pod people aliens. Invasion of the Body Snatchers is truly an effective horror film full of paranoia, reminiscent of John Carpenter's later works, and it features a fantastic soundtrack.

Sorry guys. We hated - HATED - Suicide Squad with a passion. Ryne literally put his hands over his face in disgust. At a certain point in this podcast episode (about 55 minutes in), we just start listing off everything we hated about the film. Suicide Squad is a mess, and we truly would like to hear the reasons why people actually like this. The good news is that we found Genessee Oktoberfest, and it is delicious. --- Send in a voice message:

Our final (?) episode in the Jeff Goldblum month takes a swat at The Fly, the 1986 David Cronenberg film. Here we talk about body horror, practical effects, the quirky persona of Goldblum (he lands a 10 on the Goldblumian Factor), the chemistry between Geena Davis and Goldblum, and how much we love the Brundlefly. Also on tap: some thoughts on the new Suicide Squad film. Please subscribe, and leave us a review of iTunes! itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/blood-and-black-rum/id1017126160?mt=2 --- Send

Join us for the next episode in Jeff Goldblum Month, where we discuss one of the most important films of the last two decades - Cats & Dogs. This rates a perfect 10 on the Goldblumian factor, but we also talk about how cats are assholes, how dogs can be stupid, and how Cats & Dogs is basically a kids' version of spy and film noir genres.

We've gotta come clean - we both liked Ghostbusters 2016. Most of the time, its jokes land; not only that, but its cast matches up with the original and it even makes some reverential references to the original. On the podcast, we talk about some of the best moments in Ghostbusters, along with its multiple flaws. We also bring up a funny theater-going moment, love for the original film, and the absurd claim that this Ghostbusters remake is full of feminist ranting. --- Send in a voice message:

2016/07/14

Blood and Black Rum Podcast continues Jeff Goldblum Month with the sequel to Jurassic Park, The Lost World. This Spielberg film is a lot less serious than the original, and it resorts to a lot of hokey B-movie moments that we clearly are going to make fun of. It also ranks an 8.5 on the Goldblumian Factor. Listen in as we discuss dinos, Sam Neill, and Vince Vaughn's rousing performance. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bloodandblackrum/message Support this

2016/06/29

Nostalgia might trick you into thinking Independence Day is a good film, but trust us when we say it is not. This marks the first episode in our Jeff Goldblum month, and we rate Independence Day a 4 on the Goldblumian Factor. We also talk about Boomer the dog, the poor special effects, and the stereotypes that abound in the film.

Expect long diatribes about our favorite and least favorite parts of the game, plus some nostalgic anecdotes about the Fallout series.
