Tapeheads: A Podcast on VHS Tapeheads

Sean selects his VHS copy of the 1984 holiday horror classic Gremlins, written by Chris Columbus, directed by Joe Dante, and starring Zach Galligan, Phoebe Cates, Frances Lee McCain, Hoyt Axton, Dick Miller, and Corey Feldman.

Lyndsey selects her VHS copy of the 2000 Nancy Meyers blockbuster What Women Want, starring Mel Gibson (pre-meltdown), Helen Hunt, Ashley Johnson, Marisa Tomei, Sarah Paulson, Judy Greer, Bette Midler, and Alan Alda.

In this very special Halloween episode, the Tapeheads discuss the 1996 horror classic Scream, written by Kevin Williamson, directed by Wes Craven, and starring Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox, David Arquette, Skeet Ulrich, Matthew Lillard, Jamie Kennedy, Rose McGowan, and Drew Barrymore.

Lyndsey selects her VHS copy of the 1995 romantic comedy While You Were Sleeping, starring Sandra Bullock and Bill Pullman.

Globe-trotting diplomat and friend of the show Paul Fischer presents his VHS copy of Barry Levinson’s genre-defying 1992 film Toys, starring Robin Williams, Michael Gambon, Joan Cusack, Robin Wright, and an Oscar-worthy LL Cool J (!) for Tapeheads inspection.

Merry Quarantinemas! In this belated holiday special, Lyndsey and Sean tackle not one, not two, but THREE films of the Home Alone series that all began with director Chris Columbus' 1990 classic starring Macaulay Culkin, Joe Pesci, Daniel Stern, John Heard, and Catherine O'Hara. We also discuss the 1992-based Manhattan sequel featuring a memorable extended cameo from Tim Curry, plus the 1997 black sheep of the family starring Alex D. Linz. We hope you're ready to see hell!
