Fuds On Film Scott Morris

We thought we'd return to the horror genre's heyday in the 70's to look at six of the most highly regarded horrors the world has yet seen. Join us as we discuss Don’t Look Now, The Wicker Man, The Exorcist, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Omen, and Halloween. Get the full show notes at http://www.fudsonfilm.com/70s-horror/

Now, on this podcast we love a bit of Dick, ol' Phil K being a favourite author in this neck of the woods, with some of our favourite films based on his work. We've already discussed Blade Runner and Total Recall, but it's fair to say that these are both only very loosely based on the works that inspire them. We thought we'd take a look at two films rather more adherent to the source material, with Richard Linklater's 2006 adaptation of A Scanner Darkly and 2014's Radio Free Albemuth, directed by John Alan Simon.

As October draws to a close, it's time for us to reconvene and pass judgement on an assortment of films: Blood Father, Bridget Jones Baby, Soy Nero, Inferno, The BFG, The Girl on the Train, The Red Turtle, and The Free State of Jones.

We're all used to the Technicolor realities of modern cinema by this point, but there's still more than a few examples where, either by economic necessity or stylistic preference, it's monochrome in the multiplex. Today we're looking at some notable examples, namely Pi, The Good German, Good Night and Good Luck, Schindler's List, The Mist, The Man Who Wasn't There, and La Haine.

We're looking at The Prestige and The Illusionist this month, two films with fairly similar high level plots but very different executions as they explore rivalry, love, and obsession through the world of illusion. And we don't mean the old Megadrive game. See the full show notes at http://www.fudsonfilm.com/illusionist-prestige/

Another month has passed, so again we congregate to discuss what horrors cinema has unleashed on us. Get our takes on The Light Between Oceans, Captain Fantastic, Bastille Day, Doctor Strange, The Shallows, Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, Supersonic, Lo & Behold: Reveries of the Connected World, Jack Reacher: Never Go Back, and The Infiltrator.
