There is something about this production that is esoteric in its uniqueness and so broad in its delivery, that truly anyone that loves 80’s and 90’s ‘trash cinema’ (not how many would describe it, but…) would find this podcast a must for their playlist. Hosted by Keean Murrell-Snape, Kira Jade Oppitz & Brodie (insert new surname here) as they take us as down video aisles once paved with blue and gold carpet.
I’m heavily invested in this now. It’s become a past-time for when I yearn for the peace I once found in my youth. When the aroma of a cinema carpet being vacuumed, worn down by buttered-popcorn kernels being ground into it and the cold tang of over-carbonised drink dispensers stayed with you long after the credits rolled. There’s some classics in the list from past years and if you’re like me, you tend to pick episodes from other shows of film you’re familiar with but - for the future listeners - this podcast is more about you than the movie. More about the experience than the learning. @WeirdKidVideo is a breath of fresh air from the commercialisation and television-ing of cinema today. It appreciates style over substance, writing over marketing and stunts over CGI. So, if that’s your thing, trust me… so is this. So glad I found this gem. Five stars!
