    Diner (1982)

    Imagine…travelling back to a time before the Internet…before Mountain Dew Livewire…and before the neo-post apocalypse… This Summer, Apocalypse Video asks the question: Where Were You In ‘82?The date is May 21st, 1982. The theme for Chariots of Fire is climbing the charts as it inspires a generation of parody videos...and a little drama about 50s nostalgia is about to open wide and let the boomers relive their glory days. The film...is Diner. And it's open for business...Now! I’m your host, Dave, and joining me as we order another batch of gravy fries are fellow cinephiles and Diner regulars Mike and Ryan. Topics of discussion in this episode include Mickey Rourke paving the way in the 50’s for 80’s style hairdos; we debate the proper way to organize a record collection; and finally, we discover the origin of the “Dick in a Popcorn Bucket” gag, and whether or not Diner can claim it did it first.

See you then.

    300 (2007)

    If I’ve learned one thing doing 300 episodes of this show, it’s that you do NOT want to piss off a demented and super jacked Warlord when they come by requesting a special episode of the podcast. Thankfully, said Warlord’s special request of Zack Snyder’s 300 just so happens to perfectly line up with Apocalypse Video’s 300th episode. I don’t know if that’s divine planning or just super obvious programming on our part, but hey, I’m not going to argue with the Warlord who forced me to record this episode. Anyway, let’s oil up and talk about some good old ancient bloodlust and violence. AROO!! AROO!!!I’m your host, Dave, and joining me as we prepare for glory are fellow cinephiles and rejected Spartan warriors Ryan, Kara, and Janna, with special guest and Supreme Warlord of the Wasteland: Fridgius. Topics of discussion in this episode include the messed up childcare system in ancient Sparta; Janna professes her love for “the sexiest sex scene in all of Cinema”; and finally, we talk about the dawn of digital filmmaking, and whether this was the beginning of a bold, new era or the first of many to abandon sets and locations for a lifeless greenscreen alternative. Be sure to rate, review and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. You can also Like Us on Facebook, Follow Us on Instagram, or shoot us an email at apocalypsevideopod@gmail.com That will do it for the 300th episode of Apocalypse Video. When we return, we’ll be returning you to your regularly scheduled Airpril inflight programming with Drop Zone.

    Con Air (1997)

    On the second episode of Airpril, Apocalypse Video puts on some shackles and boards the Jailbird: a specially designed aircraft that houses the sickest, most depraved criminals in the country. But when Cyrus the Virus and his cadre of lunatics hijack the plane, former Army Ranger Cameron Poe must use all the power of his training and his slow motion hair to stop Cyrus and ground Con Air for good. I’m your host and Captain, Dave, and joining me on this flight are my co-pilots and fellow Army Rangers, Mike, Jackie, and Ryan. Topics of discussion in this episode include the enduring legacy of Con Air, including that magnificent Nicolas Cage hair gif; we dub Cameron Poe’s attorney as Worst Lawyer in All of Alabama; and finally, we get into the proper pronunciation of Buscemi, and why Steve gave up on fighting this losing battle long ago.

You can also Like Us on Facebook, Follow Us on Instagram, or shoot us an email at apocalypsevideopod@gmail.com That will do it for this leg of our Airpril flight through 90’s airborne action.
