An ECFS Productions Original Podcast: Cinema Spectator is a film history podcast that takes away the pretense that usually comes along with learning about film. Each week, we tackle a "classic" of film history but do these films actually hold up for a modern audience? Can they entertain someone who grew up on Spider-Man reboots and Jim Carrey movies, or will they forever be relics of a bygone era?

    The Babadook (2014)

    Finishing off Horror Month is The Babadook (2014), which takes on the terror of grief and loneliness. This small scale story of a single mother and a disobedient son takes a much quieter approach to monster-horror movies and delivers something more introspective.    Cinema Spectator is a movie podcast hosted by Isaac Ransom and Cameron Tuttle, with frequent appearances from film expert Juzo Greenwood.

    Robert Eggars' debut feature The Witch (2015) is a slow, contemplative movie about the inner workings of an exiled protestant family in the 1630s.

    Megalopolis (2024)

    Sorry for the curveball, but this movie is just too weird and too interesting not to talk about. Megalopolis is the latest Francis Ford Coppola epic about.... well, let's just say it's one of the most unique film experiences of our lifetime. An aged director, coming back from a 13 year hiatus, making a dream project he's been wanting to make for decades. Not to mention the extraordinary budget and even worse critical and commercial success. Cameron and Juzo discuss the confusing, hilarious, and inane musings of Francis Ford Coppola's Megalopolis (2024).   Cinema Spectator is a movie podcast hosted by Isaac Ransom and Cameron Tuttle, with frequent appearances from film expert Juzo Greenwood.
