2021/01/13

Devin & James are back in their time-traveling phone booth to discuss the TIME TRAVEL films they couldn't catch in the first installment. This must be one of our favorite topics because this is the longest episode yet. Join in to hear our take on an essential H. G. Wells classic, time-spanning romances, budget-bending indies, the future via the 1990s, and major actors stuck in the "time loop" conundrum. Bill & Ted meet Socrates. Captain Kirk meets the whales.

Revenge Films - Part Two

Den of Cin with Devin & James ·

2020/12/20

Just like one of the best examples of the genre itself, it took Devin & James two volumes to explore the seedy underbelly of REVENGE FILMS. In our new episode, we take on Tarantino, Revenge Westerns, Nicolas Cage at his most unhinged (if that's possible), and a few other surprises we missed on our first go-round. Please join us as we take a fun look at some rough freakin' movies.

Revenge Films - Part One

Den of Cin with Devin & James ·

2020/12/13

Devin & James are back in THE DEN OF CIN!! In our new episode, we take on our most challenging topic yet with REVENGE FILMS! This sub-genre is chock full of cruelty and brutality, but it can also be full of style, thoughtfulness, and even elegance. We get into the (sometimes unimaginable) humanity found in these films and discuss the reasons they are worthy of examination. Devin & James always have fun talking about movies, but to be fair, this episode (and all the films discussed) should

John Carpenter - Part Two with Special Guest Casey...

Den of Cin with Devin & James ·

2020/10/27

In lucky number Episode 13, Devin & James continue trick or treating through John Carpenter's career with their old buddy Casey. Unlike our other two-parters, which were recorded on separate days, this became a chat that lasted nearly 4 hours about 1 filmmaker who we could have gone even longer on if we weren't getting sleepy and slaphappy! But like sugar-high kids at a Halloween sleepover, we never lose our energy as we get through invisible men and body mutilation on Mars before a

It's our first Halloween in the Den of Cin, and there's no better topic for the season than brilliant writer/director/composer John Carpenter! Along with special guest and long time friend Casey O'Connor, Devin & James pick apart the tricks and the treats in this subversive auteur's filmography. Our conversation went so long that we had to separate it into two packed episodes! Again! Many of Carpenter's best films are here in our first installment, including a few with

Willem Dafoe

Den of Cin with Devin & James ·

2020/10/17

Devin & James dig into the massive filmography of Willem Dafoe, one of the greatest and most distinctive actors working today. From his start as the ultimate tough guy in 80's flicks like "Streets of Fire" and "To Live and Die in LA," through more mainstream work in major hits like "Spider-Man," and into some of the most physically and emotionally intense art and horror films ever committed to celluloid in masterworks like "Anti-Christ" and "The

Den of Cin with Devin & James ·

2020/10/01

Devin & James are back to debunk the cry, "There can be only one!" In our second deep dive into the 1980's cinema of The Cannon Film Group, we take on elite writers & directors, immortals, nuclear men, the power of Grayskull, Van Damme's dance moves, the way Cobra eats his pizza, and fiercely debate who makes the better father: Sly Stallone or Robert Loggia. We even saved some time to discuss the greatest Cannon film that never was, about a certain friendly neighborhood

Cannon Film Group - Part One

Den of Cin with Devin & James ·

2020/09/27

Devin & James have done it again! This week's topic, an examination of 80's cinema from the CANNON FILM GROUP, has proven too big to contain in one podcast. After discussing ninjas, disco and hip hop musicals, holiday slashers, and the Two Chucks (Bronson and Norris), there still wasn't enough time to get near the full scope of what producers Menahem Golan and Yoram Globus delivered to eager popcorn lovers throughout the decade.

On June 29, 2020, the world lost legendary writer/director/performer/humanitarian/all-around-great-guy Carl Reiner. Even while wearing so many hats, Mr. Reiner's head never seemed weighed down.

Devin & James change it up for their latest deep dive, focusing on a whole year of cinema rather than a particular career. And what a year they've chosen! 1980 proves to be one of the most dynamite years of all time across all genres, with horror and comedy having a particularly iconic year. This topic proves to be so big, it may require a second episode to catch what we couldn't cover. Will your fave 1980 flick be featured?
