Let's Jaws For a Minute Sarah Buddery and MJ Smith

This week, Sarah and MJ are joined once again by Rob Daniel to discuss Bong Joon-ho's brilliant The Host. They talk about how wathcing the film feels...different in 2024, what context it came out in in 2006, and try to stay on topic talking about only ONE Bong Joon-ho film.

This week, Sarah and MJ are joined by Nick Mear of the NickFlix Podcast to talk about the 1999 cinematic masterpiece, The Mummy. They talk about the film's surprising staying power considering it was released in what many consider to be a stacked year for movies, the joys of watching a movie that is pure "fun" and of course, how incredibly attractive the cast is!

This week, Sarah and MJ are joined by Sarah's husband, Martin Buddery, to talk about David Cronenberg's 1986 remake of The Fly. They talk about the effects, what insect they would like to be gene spliced with, and the efficient way the script gives viewers believable reasons for Seth Brundle's gruesome transformation!

This week, Sarah and MJ are joined by Andy Gaudion of the Ramblin' Amblin podcast to talk about the 1982 classic, John Carpenter's The Thing. They talk about the 2011 prequel, the iconic effects, how cool Kurt Russell always is, and the deeper themes hiding just below the surface of this wintry monster movie.

Monster Movie Season makes a stop in Sarah's backyard as Sarah and MJ discuss An American Werewolf in London. They talk about what makes this film work, why it shouldn't, the incredible effects, and take a detour to discuss their love of music videos!

This week on LJFAM, monster movie season keeps on trucking to the 1954 classic, Creature From the Black Lagoon. Sarah and MJ talk about the film's unspoken influence on basically every film that followed it, the unjust accredidation of the Gill Man's design, and whether style over substance is, in fact, a bad thing.
