Burger brings the lettuce to talk more on “The Devil’s Rejects.” One of the reasons why I love having the Ranked co-star on my show is that he comes overly prepared and has a lot to talk about, which is why we usually have two-part episodes. We both loved the music so much on this we did a top 5 music in movies ranking, hangout movies, B-movies and more!If you're not doing so already, check out Classic American Movies on Instagram and Facebook.

Quite possibly one of the most recognizable names ever, Alex Cox joins me to talk about his iconic career, spanning over four decades. After realizing being an actor wasn’t in the cards, Alex decided to move to production (which was unpopular at the time) and has been making beautiful films since. "Repo Man," "Sid and Nancy," and "Straight to Hell," are just some of his iconic masterpieces.We talk about his early life, inspirations and his latest (as of the recording) movie “Tombstone Rashomon,”

2024/02/26

Every once in a while I’ll allow friends to pick a movie to research for the podcast. Baroque has been asking to do this flick for sometime now and I finally broke down and said yes. We both do a deep dive in the history of D, Jack Black as The Genie in the live action “Aladdin” franchises and more! Tenacious D really isn’t my thing, but I was glad to have finally watched this flick and it’s obvious why “Destiny” has become a cult classic over the years.If you're not doing so already, please follow

2024/02/16

When I record a podcast, the majority of the time, I'll have the mics on and I'll chat with my guests for awhile about anything. I like to do this to loosen them up, feel at home and generally welcomed. Being on a podcast can be nerve racking and the last thing you want to do is sound stupid or come off in the wrong light. So, what I have here is a compilation of clips from various guests that have come over and we talked. Not always about movies, but overall it was fun and interesting to re-listen

2024/02/12

Channeling the energy of creative geniuses like Sean Cunningham and Al Adamson, Baltimore indie filmmaker Shawn Wright is bringing back the sleazy gory horror films of yore with his production company FaceMelt Features. His first feature, “Night of the Axe” was a fun throwback to the 80’s slasher and his follow up “Spirit Board” (based on the Ouija horror films) is currently in preproduction. After chatting with Shawn, it’s very clear he has a promising future in horror films and I’m looking forward

Jessica (from the “Ghosts of Appalachia” Halloween special) joins me to talk about one of the most memorable movies that kicked off Rob Zombie’s other career.

One of my all-time favorite genres is murder mystery. However, this movie does it with a twist: The audience already knows who did it, but we don’t know why.

Back in 2015, a young Romanian filmmaker revived an all but dead genre of filmmaking with his ultimate cult film, “Be My Cat: A Film For Anne.” I stumbled upon this flick while scrolling through Tubi and I am thrilled I did! It is such a rollercoaster of great filmmaking and, honestly, I couldn’t tell if Adrian was acting or not.

Coming straight out of Montreal, Sébastien Landry (Seb) and Laurence Morais Lagacé (Baz) created one crazy, violent, fun, and well shot horror film called “Game of Death.” The stylish flick really got the duo the chance to spread their creative wings and let loose! Over the years, they had shot tons of music videos, as well as doing their own separate projects, all of which are beautiful and creative in their own light. I was super excited to talk to these guys about their amazing career as well as
