    Deep Rising

    In this episode, we welcome Josh aboard to talk about a vastly underappreciated monster mash from the late 90s, Stephen Sommer's fun action-horror hybrid Deep Rising from 1998. Listen as we detail our love of creature features, marvel at this movie's amazing cast (chief among them the late, great Treat Williams), and mourn the decline of mid-budget genre blockbusters. Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and slimy tentacles. Our theme song is "Nostalgia TV" by Edward Jonathan Blakeley through Lynne Publishing.

    Best of 2024

    Once again, we're discussing our favorite movies of the past year, in this case 2024. Despite it being a terrible year for us personally, the films were still great, so listen as we run through our top ten lists, which include disquieting depictions of religious and political conflict, disturbing bad behavior from rich people, and slapstick comedy involving fiendish but cute animals. Warning: Contains explicit language, some spoilers, and some futile Oscar hopes. Our theme song is "Nostalgia TV" by Edward Jonathan Blakeley through Lynne Publishing.

    Shallow Grave

    Ellie answers our ad for a flatmate as we come out of the attic for a discussion of Danny Boyle's spectacular debut film, the 1994 darkly comic thriller Shallow Grave. Listen as we analyze the motivations of the three morally-challenged protagonists, discuss the highs and lows of Boyle's subsequent film career, and pine for more of Christopher Eccleston's Ninth Doctor. Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and colorful apartment decor. Our theme song is "Nostalgia TV" by Edward Jonathan Blakeley through Lynne Publishing.

    The Spy Who Loved Me

    It's time for our latest mission with 007 as Bob Chipman joins us again for a globe-trotting mission with The Spy Who Loved Me. Listen as we discuss how the franchise tries to create a more proactive Bond girl in the form of female lead Anya Amasova, make note of Bond's best quips and gadgets for this entry, and question Bond's status as a 'secret' agent. Warning: Contains explicit language, furniture, and strangely anatomical villain furniture. Our theme song is "Nostalgia TV" by Edward Jonathan Blakeley through Lynne Publishing.

    Dragonslayer

    Chris Chipman joins us again as we journey to a long lost age of monsters and movie magic and do battle with 1981's Dragonslayer. Listen as we marvel over the film's incredible animatronic and go-motion effects, examine how the film's portrayal of religion and authority reflects post-Vietnam cynicism, and discuss the movie's place among other 1980s fantasy films. Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and a crazy, murdering nutbar. Our theme song is "Nostalgia TV" by Edward Jonathan Blakeley through Lynne Publishing.

    The Quick and the Dead

    The street is ours as Peter joins us once again to draw our guns on one of the wildest and most entertaining Westerns ever made, The Quick and the Dead from 1995. Listen as we chronicle the decline of the Western as a film genre in the late 1990s, marvel at director Sam Raimi's visual ingenuity in creating the movie's unique look, and praise producer and star Sharon Stone's foresight in casting then lesser-known actors such as Russell Crowe and Leonardo DiCaprio. Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and phallic firearm discussions. Our theme song is "Nostalgia TV" by Edward Jonathan Blakeley through Lynne Publishing.
