- TV & Film
We're two guys covering all kinds of cult films from horror to action and everything in between. We try to bring funny and engaging content with our unique personalities, and we also review beer in each episode as well. Some of our past and present coverage includes Halloween specials, series retrospectives, Difficult Films month, Red Hot '80s Action Summer, '90s remakes, and a lot more. It's a pretty eclectic mix here, but if you're into cult films and beer, this is the place to be. Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bloodandblackrum/support

THE OMEN (1976)
Since The First Omen is currently terrorizing theaters, we thought it would be a good time to do the first Omen, aka The Omen 1976 with Gregory Peck as a father finding out his adopted son may just be the Antichrist. Here we talk about the film's lasting effects, the similarities and differences to The Exorcist, the various outfits of Robert Thorn, and even a connection to Halloween 6? We're also drinking Hoof Hearted Brewing's Duke of Ripstick Super Party Pale Ale!

ASTEROID CITY
We've been fans of Wes Anderson for some time, so we thought we were about due for a new episode on his most latest output, Asteroid City. Here we talk about how the film further expands the border of Wes Anderson-isms, being a natural extension of The French Dispatch, the meta-contextual elements, the massive cast, and the bloat that sometimes creeps up in Anderson's most recent films. We're also drinking Ommegang's Farm Fresh Ale, Honey Conditioned!

LEPRECHAUN: ORIGINS
Happy St. Patrick's Day! We're continuing our journey through the Leprechaun series with a look at the WWE Studios reboot Leprechaun: Origins starring Hornswoggle as the titular horror character. The biggest thing about this movie is the fact that it is so generic and unmemorable, and we struggle to put into words just how humdrum the whole thing is. We're also drinking Sloop Brewing Co.'s (No) Green Beer NEIPA!

STARSHIP TROOPERS
With all the success of Helldivers 2, we thought it would be appropriate to finally cover Paul Verhoeven's Starship Troopers on our show. This has all of the things you've come to know from the director: parodical elements, propaganda pieces, ultragore, and a healthy satirical take on fascism. We talk about all of this plus the Dina Meyer/Costas Mandylor connection! We're also drinking Sierra Nevada's new 19.2 oz Cosmic Little Thing double hazy IPA.

FOXY BROWN
Happy Black History Month! We of course wanted to celebrate this occasion with another blaxploitation movie since we haven't done all that many on the show. Here, we take on Foxy Brown, released one year after Pam Grier's classic Coffy and featuring a lot of the same themes. We talk about the more exploitative elements in the film, the zany inclusion of certain scenes, and of course the sultry Pam performance. We're also drinking Brooklyn Brewing's collaboration with Four Roses Distilling, the Black Ops Imperial Barrel Aged Stout.
