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

When CatBusRuss is posting a #RewindWednesday episode of "I Dig Crazy Flicks with CatBusRuss", if the conversation was two parts, he prefers to glue it back together as one long podcast. But who would deny this feed having two weeks to celebrate the film that made Mel Brooks the cinema icon that he is today? Especially not even a week removed from his 99th birthday.This was an interesting conversation with Michael Dubois, a cinephile whose first exposure to "The Producers"

Zieram: Proof of Concept with Noel Thingvall

CatBusRuss is joined by prolific podcaster Noel Thingvall to discuss a Sci-Fi Channel Saturday morning classic, "Zieram". Our host would call it "Alien Isolation for Dummies". Noel would call it "Alien Meets Abbott and Costello". Either alternative title you bestow on the feature debut of tokusatsu master, Keita Amemiya, the two mean them to be complimentary.For CatBus, he wanted to watch this film 25 years ago since the second anime VHS tape(s) he bought was

This portion of the A to Zed journey takes us on a scary tour. Scary to some with the Steve Martin's Woody Allen inspired "L.A. Story" and Woody Allen's "Midnight in Paris". Scary to the rest for featuring Lucio Fulci's "The New York Ripper". "Out of the Dark" represents Colombia and

CatBusRuss was presumptuous when it came to his knowledge about William H. Bonney, a.k.a. Billy the Kid. Our host knew that he was an outlaw with a legendary reputation as a gunslinger until the law caught up with and dispatched him at the age of 21. Thanks to The Cinema Snob, this podcaster also knew he defeated Dracula. His limited knowledge led him to believe that this icon of the Old West did not live a long enough life to get a franchise of Brat Pack adjacent movies. So when Andrew

There are still a lot of podcasts from the original "Ninety For Chill Dot Com: The Podcast" from 2022 that CatBusRuss needs to post on this feed, but with Gregory Carl pulling his weight as a promoter for "I Dig Crazy Flicks", reissuing an episode that he received feedback about seems to make sense.The foul-mouth guest from last weeks "Companion" episode exemplifies what MTV's most recognizable characters of the nineties may have become if they were middle aged.

CatBusRuss's favorite Michael Crichton film was 1973's "Westworld". He is also more of a Jonathan Nolan fan than his older brother. Gregory Carl is quite the well-read, sci-fi-loving truck stop employee in Central Illinois. "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" is a tale he is fascinated by. Thus, "Companion" is a film the two should have quite an interesting conversation about.And for this podcast's host, it was indeed interesting. Can a robot consent

"Earth Girls Are Easy"??? ThePoeticCritic Responds

2025/05/21

Jeff Goldblum + Geena Davis + Jim Carrey = A great way to beat the monotony of shallow, capitalistic existence. CatBusRuss was his standard dower self going into the weekend while ThePoeticCritic was sour about the lack of cool guests going into the Chicago Con season. Needing summer to start now, CatBusRuss turned to an 80's camp classic he just never got around to, "Earth Girls Are Easy". TPC just happens to offer some of the best insights into this Julie Brown vanity project.

CatBusRuss ponders if the Indiana Comic Convention appreciates that he has been promoting the fun of the 2025 event for nearly two months after it had concluded. The odds are looking good that he will be invited to sister con, ATL Comic Convention, near the end of July, so "I Dig Crazy Flicks" panel coverage does not seem to be hurting their opinion of him.This podcast covers the last panel he "moderated".

CatBusRuss had to do a lot of work to make sure it was still prom season. With horror features from the old Podbean feed, he prefers to save them for October, but with the day that will be the most like teen-comedies being near, it felt right to take the piss out of the event(s) he never attended with zombie comedy "Dance of the Dead" from 2008.

It is about 3:45 am on Stacia Hardin's Birthday. She happens to share that day with one of the most important days in the whole of nerdom, May the Fourth Be with You. The last time CatBusRuss saw her, she was playing nurse as his right wrist had just been surgically repaired, feeding him chocolate pie and giving him a comfort plush Ewok. Damn she was a truly a great person to let our host know that today was the day to release "Star Wars: The Last Jedi" panel from Indiana Comic Con

The "Young Frankenstein" panel at Indiana Comic Con was another, "Let's see who volunteers," experience for CatBusRuss. Fortunately, he could not have asked for a better co-panelist than the Disney Imagineers' official magician/mentalist, Paul Draper. Would either of them claim to be experts about Mel Brook's film? No. But a pro-wrestler and Vegas entertainer surely would provide the audience an amusing show.The performer who had recently appeared with Shaq and Sir

It is only appropriate that this #RewindWednesday podcast falls on the same week as Ebertfest in Champaign, IL. CatBusRuss was not going to try and manage two events to get time off for in a month, so the least he can do is try to give the "I Dig Crazy Flicks" listener a taste of what the festival is like.Back in 2022, CatBusRuss was able to attend the Terry Zwigoff and Thora Birch hosted screening of "Ghost World" a feature that our host has a friendship that played out a lot

CatBusRuss and ThePoeticCritic definitely had two different experiences at 2025's Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo. Our host's big sister was allowed to attend all three days while he just got frustrated with ReedPop entering the realm of gouging nerds. But, the two do have different personalities, so perhaps we will discover the common ground that still makes the C2E2 worthwhile.Russ is more about panels and presentations while ThePoeticCritic just likes the community cons provide.

CatBusRuss survived the blood loss, his social inadequacies, and the poor scheduling by ReedPop, and came out with quite a rewarding day at C2E2 2025. The new tattoo that is sure to upset the customers that mock him for wearing a face covering was the priciest investment. Outside of that, only spending a $110 at the con and $140 at New Japan Windy City Riot for collectables makes it seem like he won the day. On top of that, he was able to watch a good Netflix Original movie, "Extinction"

CatBusRuss left Indiana Comic Con extremely honored by who he was able to share panels with. They were all inspirational.In the event of the "Was 1985 the Greatest Year in Movies?" panel, he got to speak with filmmaker and founder of the Gal's Guide Women History Library, Dr. Leah "Riwo" Leach. Our podcast host may come off as a cinematic know-it-all, so it was great that he was partnered up with a feminist who has created films, something CatBusRuss still aspires to do

With the lead up to CatBusRuss's attendance to Indiana Comic Con being based around the films of 1985, it only seemed appropriate that "I Dig Crazy Flicks" should further tease it on by reviewing all the features that the podcast covered from that year. Well, it will not include "Rocky IV" or "Commando", but those flicks are in the feed.As long as it was not a sequel, 1985 was an interesting year for horror. You had two "Alien" knock offs in

By the end of the two nights, he was too partied out to create any of his traditional bonus episodes recapping his days at the convention.Fortunately, there were five other panels he was on, and his fellow co-panelists had no issue with him pulling out the Yeti mic and Macbook Air to record those conversations.Russ's Friday started with a panel

Those are all cinema that he considers himself an expert in. But he grew up in a home that respected the
