The DMC Movie Podcast The DMC Movie Podcast

Dave, Marcus and Colin escape Mathtilda May’s entrancing beauty long enough to discuss Tobe Hooper’s ambitious $25 million Space Vampire sci-fi epic. While it fails to deliver a coherent storyline, believable characters, or any level of logic, it more than makes up for in chaotic entertainment. Dave fails to master Steve Railsback’s character name, Colin does his best impression of several characters, and Marcus thinks his friends must have seen a better film. The guys remain confused by….well…almost everything, but have a lot of fun discussing what amounts to a bizarre ‘80s artifact.

After discussing Rob Zombie’s original Halloween remake, the guys decide to take a run at the sequel, Halloween II. Colin is having none of it, Marcus doesn’t want to live in Zombie’s world, and while Dave can appreciate some of what Zombie was attempting, everybody agrees the movie is generally unpleasant, extremely violent, and narratively bizarre. Nobody understands (or cares about) ghostly apparitions and white horses, and we’re all confused why EVERY PERSON in Haddonfield a disgusting human being. While we want you to listen to the podcast, we can’t recommend actually watching the movie…..

This is the 5th Halloween franchise film the DMC podcast has discussed – Marcus and Colin blame Dave, and her agrees it’s his fault. But, while the movies haven’t been great, the podcasts are a lot of fun, so if you’d like to check out the earlier films we discussed, you can find them here:


Rob Zombie’s Halloween remake
Halloween 2018
Halloween Kills
Halloween Ends

Dave, Marcus, and Colin discuss Ridley Scott's sci-fi masterpiece Alien, the birth of the franchise, the artistry of the sets, and Veronica Cartwright's fantastic terror performance.

The guys discuss the film, the state of modern action and Netflix original films. Everybody loves the action but finds the rest of the story threadbare. They discuss the effectiveness of both “moist” and “wet” teams, compare the film to a Chili’s chicken sandwich, marvel at the range and speed of mini-taxis, and debate the best 80’s bubblegum brands/flavors. Lots of praise for Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans, but they can’t agree on which fictional super-assassin would win in a fight between Jason Bourne, Sierra Six or McCall from The Equlizer, but they agree recording the pod was probably more fun than the movie itself.

The guys discuss the classic sci-fi horror film - arguably John Carpenter’s greatest film. Everybody marvels at Rob Bottin’s amazing practical effects, but Marcus doesn’t love all the gore. High praise for Kurt Russell, questions about flamethrower management, and Wilford Brimley gets REALLY excited dissecting Alien dogs. Grab a bottle of J&B scotch, and enjoy the ride!

After watching and enjoying Prey (2022) Dave, Marcus, and Colin dive deep into the Predator franchise discussing each of the movies. Spoiler alert: the first and last are the two best of the 6 movies.

The original Predator starts at 13:21, Predator 2 starts at 41:02, Predator v. Alien at 51:19, Predator v. Alien: Requiem at 59:36, The Predator at 1:06:13 and rounding out the discussion the new movie Prey at 1:12:06.
