    Steamy VHS Thrillers - The "One-Boxers"

    The Cinephiles return with a vengeance and a new format. Taking you back to the days of VHS rentals at your local strip mall video store. Remember all those steamy suspense flicks on the shelves? Not the big blockbusters which took up an entire wall. The stylish under-the-radar adult thrillers complete with passionate moral quagmires and sordid plot lines. These are the subject of the Cinephiles' discussion in this episode.  Here you'll find the world's first and foremost term and definition of this sultry genre big in the 80s and 90s. The standout films. The actors and actresses who made this genre sparkle. The adultery. The betrayal. The Madeline Stowe fantasies.  Join us as we dive haphazardly into this seductive world full of tanned-up Tom Berengers and malicious Michael Madsens. Enjoy!

    The Hit (1984)

    It’s time for one of the hippest, coolest, indie road trip gangster films you’re ever likely to see.   Join the Cinephiles in going a little too deep into Stephen Frears’ 1984 cult classic The Hit. Starring Terence Stamp in a career-defining role, John Hurt as cinema’s most reptilian and mysterious hitman, and Tim Roth in his first big screen breakout. It’s a hitman movie, it’s a road trip movie, it’s an expat movie, it's a philosophical movie, and to top it off Laura Del Sol provides buxom sex appeal for this existential thrill ride through Spain.   See why Chistopher Nolan named this one of his 10 favorite Criterion movies all time. And stay for the abundance of off-color jokes featuring a certain disgraced financier who shall remain nameless. The Cinephiles go where other podcasts won’t in bringing you the story and ethereal allure of THE HIT.   John Smirk called...

    The Holdovers (2023)

    Alright all you rancid Philistines, hormonal Vulgarians and fetid Layabouts. It's time for the Cinephiles to dive deep and dirty into Alexander Payne's wintry tour de force The Holdovers. A movie that will change you just as it does our main character Mr. Hunham. Come bear witness to the motley crew of Paul Giamatti, Dominic Sessa and Davine Joy Randolph as they holdover for the holidays and go on a ramshackle journey of self-discovery. It's hilarious, heartwarming and full of exquisite vocabulary for the troglodytes in your life. A perfect movie for a cozy winter night and the Cinephiles will have you laughing around every corner of this all-too-human tale. Enjoy the ride and as always stay dirty!

    Planet Terror (2007)

    It's time for some crackling Grindhouse horror! The Cinephiles return with a vengeance! Join the guys as they delve into Robert Rodriguez's 2007 action horror comedy schlock fest PLANET TERROR. A movie that is NOT FOR EVERYONE but for those select few who like their movies dripping with sleaze, gloriously gory, hilariously campy and genuinely shocking.  Whether it's a one-legged go-go dancer, the best damn BBQ cook in Texas, a very dysfunctional family of doctors, a sheriff whose comatose wife farts like a pack mule, a couple of crazy babysitter twins or the one who goes by...El Wray. This episode has it all and will leave you so full of grime and goo you'll need a shower afterwards. Proceed with caution and enjoy the moist discharge of pus from a pulsating abscess on the asymmetrical expanding head of a freshly infected zombie. We're gonna eat your brains and gain your knowledge!

    The Eiger Sanction (1975)

    It's time for Clint Eastwood's James Bond mountain climbing movie. In honor of Clint turning 95 join the cinephiles for one of the most unique, entertaining and un-PC movies he ever made. It's a spy movie, it's an adventure movie, it's a racy drama (literally), it's a man vs nature epic survival story. It's Clint giving the funniest one-liners of his career with a host of colorful characters, spectacular locations, death-defying stunts and a dog named, well we'll let you find out.  Come have some 70's fun which would never be allowed today as Clint searches for the bad guys, seduces the ladies, contends with Mr. Dragon and takes George Kennedy up on top of the Totem Pole for a beer.  Ladies and Gentlemen....we bring you The Eiger Sanction!

    Saint Jack (1979)

    It's 5 o'clock somewhere. Time to delve into the seedy streets of Old Singapore with Ben frickin Gazzara for the all-time great expat movie Saint Jack. The atmosphere is breezy, the ladies are questionable, the CIA is lurking and the characters colorful. But underneath the carefree exterior lies something supremely human begging to be unearthed.  Join us as we pick apart this underrated gem directed by Peter Bogdanovich and produced both by Roger Corman and Hugh Hefner. Yes THAT Hugh Hefner. Both of the Cinephiles have experienced the expat life in a significant way and bring hilarious stories and insights straight from the source. And you'll find out exactly what a Wang House is!

    Sideways (2004)

    Pour a glass of Pinot as the Cinephiles get philosophical and as irreverent as ever for Alexander Payne's 2004 road trip buddy drama booze fest Sideways. A week in wine country was never funnier than this. We go deep into the dark underbelly of midlife crises and mommy issues. We get existential with mortality, marital issues and Merlot. Our jokes age like fine wine as we explore Alexander Payne's filmography and contribution to cinema. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll go through your mom's undies drawer in search of cash. Get ready to go Sideways!
