Collateral Cinema Movie Podcast Beau Maddox

At the conclusion of Season Seven of Collateral Cinema, we are checking out the 1984 spy adventure film starring Henry Thomas, Dabney Coleman, and Michael Murphy: Cloak & Dagger! This 80s flick resonated with us on many levels, sparking discussions on its setting in San Antonio, Texas; tie-in arcade game by the same name; and status as a family-friendly espionage movie. We had an absolute blast this season and we hope you have as well; stay tuned for post-season content and Season Eight in October!

Gentlemen, BEHOLD! This 4/20, we are getting absolutely baked with Jason from Dads from the Crypt, as we cover Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters! Essentially an 85-minute episode of the Adult Swim animated surrealist black comedy series, this is an ideal stoner film to check out this holiday, so come hang with us and whatever you have—be it bongs, blunts, or joints—smoke it if you got it... And remember: it don’t matter, none of this matters.

Collateral Cinema is joined by the Retro Anime Podcast for yet another old school anime review, as we talk Project A-ko! Beau, Ian, and Lewis discuss the 80s action comedy sci-fi parody at length, from where it stands as an anime movie today, to its various references to classic anime and its own impact on the medium, as well as its OVA sequels and spin-off. If you enjoyed this episode, stay tuned for our next anime film review on The Last: Naruto the Movie, with Anime Talk!

On the latest episode of Collateral Cinema, The Vern from Cinema Recall joins us for a discussion on David Lynch’s 1997 surrealist psychological thriller Lost Highway, starring Bill Pullman, Patricia Arquette, Balthazar Getty, and Robert Blake (in his final film role). How does this movie stack amongst Lynch’s filmography, such as the other two set in L.A.—Mulholland Drive (2001, previously covered by Collateral Cinema) and Inland Empire (2006)—or others? Where does it stand in 2024? Find out now, and stay tuned for more content very soon!

Welcome back, movie fans! We’re joined by Kevin and Erin from The Podcast That Wouldn’t Die! to analyze the 1986 independent action-fantasy film The Wraith, starring Charlie Sheen, Nick Cassavetes, Sherilyn Fenn, and Randy Quaid. Our obligatory car movie of the season, you could call this a guilty pleasure of ours, but we definitely enjoyed talking about it with our guests, and we hope y’all enjoy the episode, as well. If you did, stay tuned for our Miikeversary Special on Takashi Miike’s Happiness of the Katakuris, as well as our next numbered episode on David Lynch’s Lost Highway!

As we settle in to 2024 and look forward to upcoming film releases, we thought it was a good idea to go back and cover some of the movies that came out last year but we didn’t feature on Collateral Cinema At the Movies. So, come with us as we quickly review five 2023 theatrical releases and briefly talk about a few others!
