2018/08/30

Chris is joined by The Projection Booth's Mike White once again to finish out Documentary Month with a look at This Film is Not Yet Rated, a look at the secretive Motion Picture Association of America (the MPAA). The film takes a look at the inherent hypocrisy and censorship that the association levels against filmmakers who want their films released. It's a lighter film than any of the month's previous films and one drives a dagger straight into the heart of film censorship.As always, you can

Ant-Man and the Wasp

The Kulturecast ·

2018/07/12

Trouble Man

The Kulturecast ·

2018/06/29

The film stars Robert Hooks as the titular private eye, hustler, fixer, who is drawn into a web of danger when is framed for the murder of a crime boss' enforcer. It's a film in the vein of Cotton Comes to Harlem and maybe a little too much like Shaft for its own good.As always, you can follow Chris Stachiw at @KultureStach, Eric Kniss at @tychomagnetics and Kulture Shocked

Petey Wheatstraw: The Devil's Son-in-Law

The Kulturecast ·

2018/06/22

Chris is joined once again by OughtFive's Mike Wallace to talk a blaxploitation film whose title had to rhyme: Petey Wheatstraw: The Devil's Son-in-Law. The film stars comedy legend Rudy Ray Moore as the titular character, a comedian who is cut down in his prime only to be resurrected by the devil in exchange for marrying his daughter. It's a film reminiscent of Moore's other more well-known roles but one that goes for the full gusto. As always, you can follow Chris Stachiw at @KultureStach, Eric

Hereditary

The Kulturecast ·

2018/06/15

Chris and Eric are joined by Wovoka's Rashid Najib as they talk about the scariest movie since The Exorcist since the last horror movie that was compared to The Exorcist: Hereditary.

It's another horror film in the vein of The Witch and The Babadook but not in a good way in either regard.As always, you can follow

Cotton Comes To Harlem

The Kulturecast ·

2018/06/14

Chris is joined by OughtFiveFilm's Mike Wallace to kick off Blaxploitation Month with a look at a film that more than just a blaxploitation film: Cotton Comes to Harlem. The film stars Godfrey Cambridge and Raymond St. Jacques as Grave Digger Jones and Coffin Ed Johnson, two black cops who are tasked with retrieving $87,000 that was conned out of the good folks in Harlem. It's a blaxploitation film in the vein of The French Connection and other '70s crime films and stands on its own as such.As

Solo: A Star Wars Story

The Kulturecast ·

2018/05/31

Chris is rejoined by a sand-covered Eric and everyone's favorite Canadian filmmaker Matt Campagna to talk Disney's latest film in the Star Wars franchise: Solo: A Star Wars Story. Starring Alden Ehrenreich as the charismatic titular pilot, the film follows his early years from street rat to the roguish pilot of the Millenium Falcon in A New Hope. It's a film that can't justify its existence, no matter how cool Donald Glover is and how many feminist robots they throw at you. As always, you can follow

Desperado

The Kulturecast ·

2018/05/17

Chris is joined by OughtFiveFilm's Mike Wallace to talk Robert Rodriguez's Desperado, the sequel/remake of his freshman effort El Mariachi. The film stars Antonio Banderas as a nameless mariachi who is out for revenge after the death of his girlfriend. Along the way, he's joined by Salma Hayek to try and take down the local crime boss in an all-out war. It's a hyper-stylized action sequel that doesn't live up to the premise.As always, you can follow Chris Stachiw at @KultureStach, Eric Kniss

Body Double

Chris and Eric are joined by OughtFiveFilm's Mike Wallace to round out Brian De Palma Month with a look at one of the director's more salacious films Body Double. The film stars Craig Wasson as a claustrophobia-stricken actor who thinks that he sees a murder while house-sitting for a rich Los Angeleno. It's De Palma's most obvious tribute to the progenitor of suspenseful thrillers Alfred Hitchcock while also featuring some truly unique visuals and even Frankie Goes to Hollywood.Become a supporter of
