The Electro and Banno Movie Power Hour Podcast ·

2020/11/03

Electro and Banno make their triumphant return to theatres with Christopher Nolan's Tenet. In one of the craziest years for film, Robert Pattinson was not the hero we deserved but the hero we needed.

#46: The Nightmare on Elm Street

The Electro and Banno Movie Power Hour Podcast ·

2020/11/01

The spooktacular finishes up with Wes Craven's classic The Nightmare on Elm Street. Electro and Banno had not seen this movie since they were growing up in the 90s. Does it still hold up for them? Also, the full moon must have got to producer Oz because he sees Freddy as the victim in this tragic tale.

The Electro and Banno Movie Power Hour Podcast ·

2020/10/20

The spooktacular blasts ahead with 1997's Event Horizon. Directed by Paul W. S. Anderson, whose filmography can be best described as "interesting," to say the least. This was his effort to make "The Shining in space." Did the guys think he achieved that? Listen to find out!

#43: The Evil Dead

The Electro and Banno Movie Power Hour Podcast ·

2020/10/14

For our first spooktacular episode, we cover Sam Raimi’s 1981 classic The Evil Dead. The guys had not seen it in many years, and Oz and Banno didn’t even know who Raimi was. Electro, among other things, thinks the trees and the bookshelves get a little too grabby in this horror classic.

The Electro and Banno Movie Power Hour Podcast ·

2020/09/27

The Devil All the Time is the new film by Antonio Campos and features Tom Holland and Robert Pattinson, amongst other great actors. Based on Donald Ray Pollock's novel, which Electro claimed to read back in 2011. In the words of Preston Teagardin, DELUSIONS! Did the film live up to Electro's expectations after reading the book? Have you read the book? Is he right or wrong?

#40: Bill and Ted Face the Music

The Electro and Banno Movie Power Hour Podcast ·

2020/09/21

After almost 30 years, Alex Winter and Keanu Reeves return to play the lovable duo Bill and Ted, and we had to get in the studio and record an episode. Did it live up to our expectations after all this time? Does this current generation relate to the characters? Did we even like it? We answer all these questions and more in this most bodacious episode.

#39: Uncut Gems

The Electro and Banno Movie Power Hour Podcast ·

2020/08/25

Uncut Gems is the Safdie brothers follow-up to 2017s acclaimed film Good Time. Does it live up to its expectations? Not according to Banno, who barely watched it even though it’s available on Netflix. Oz and Electro thought it was worth it just for Julia Fox. Seriously, just watch it for Julia Fox.

#38: The Lodge

The Electro and Banno Movie Power Hour Podcast ·

2020/07/19

Cults, suicide, snowstorms, cabin fever, ghosts?! Makes sense that The Lodge was a Banno selection. Does Veronika Franz and Severin Fiala's first English language film live it to our expectations? Well pour yourself a cup of hot cocoa and listen as we discuss this chilling psychological horror.

#37: Underwater

The Electro and Banno Movie Power Hour Podcast ·

2020/07/01

If this episode feels like 45 minutes of being underwater, it is because we wanted to capture the suspense and terror of this week's movie, William Eubanks sci-fi horror Underwater. We had low expectations for this film, yet it still disappointed us. How could an underwater monster film be so dull, why does Oz know so much about Cthulu, and why did Electro like it more than the others. All those answers and more this week on the podcast!

#36: Parasite Part 2

The Electro and Banno Movie Power Hour Podcast ·

2020/06/17

In part two, we round off the rest of the plot. As we continue to talk about it, we make connections we didn't make before. By the end of the episode, we realize that we enjoyed the movie more than we initially thought. What do you think? What did we get right or wrong?

#35: Parasite Part 1

The Electro and Banno Movie Power Hour Podcast ·

2020/06/16

Parasite won Best Picture, Director, and Screenplay over the likes of Martin Scorcese and Quentin Tarantino, has the Academy lost its mind? Apparently not because we talked about Bong Joon-Ho’s movie for so long that we had to slice the episode in half like a fierce Jaguar attacking its prey. Part one gets through most of the plot, and we went through most of the pot.

#34: The Platform (El Hoyo)

The Electro and Banno Movie Power Hour Podcast ·

2020/05/30

For the time being, movie theatres are a thing of the past except in Scandanavia for some reason? Luckily we have Netflix who is continually releasing new movies. This episode we talk about Galder Gaztelu-Urrutia’s directorial debut The Platform. Electro and Banno found the film to be deliciously disturbing. Lil’ Lil is also back again and she has more than a ‘lil to say about the film and her official nickname. Oz didn’t watch this one but was more than high enough to be a part of the

#33: Outbreak and Contagion

The Electro and Banno Movie Power Hour Podcast ·

2020/04/25

We’re sick about all this pandemic talk, and the cure comes in the form of this podcast. In our final episode covering the pandemic, we talk about Outbreak and Contagion. In one, Steven Soderberg paints a realistic picture of what we’re living through today. In the other, Wolfgang Peterson thinks that Rene Russo would marry Dustin Hoffman. If you had Cuba Gooding Jr. or Matt Damon to save the day, who would you choose?

#31: The Hunt (Not talking about Helen)

The Electro and Banno Movie Power Hour Podcast ·

2020/04/24

Movie theatres seem to be a thing of the past at the moment but before the outside world was shut down we were able to make it out to one more movie. The Hunt is the latest film to come out of Blumhouse Productions which Electro and Banno really enjoyed. Oz was not really convinced of the story except for the excellent acting delivered by Sturgill Simpson. Listen as they argue back and forth trying to convince each other about who has the smartest opinion.

The Electro and Banno Movie Power Hour Podcast ·

2020/03/17

This episode, Electro and Banno talk about the latest edition of a story that goes back over 120 years.

#29: Birds of Prey and Bad Boys (Double Feature)

The Electro and Banno Movie Power Hour Podcast ·

2020/03/03

This week, Electro and Banno try to figure out if they should ditch the podcasting game and instead start a boy band. This episode is what is called in the movie biz a "double-feature." We had to include a review of "Bad Boys' because "Birds of Prey' was so bad we could not dedicate a whole hour to it. The way we see it, Ethan Hawke is the only bird of prey we need!
