    River Phoenix and the Whale of Hollywood

    River Phoenix was so young—man, what could’ve been. On a long enough timeline, maybe he ends up in some questionable projects… or worse, an experimental playwright film where everyone just riffs their lines into oblivion. Hollywood’s a seductive whale—swallowing ships and spitting out shimmering debris. Beautiful, chaotic wreckage glistening in the moonlight. This week, OMFG (Original Montana Film Guide) dives into those waters with another Sam Shepard-penned film—where bad decisions stack up and consequences come knocking. It’s a 1994 line in the sand: On one side, tight, gritty 90-minute films. On the other, bloated 3-hour slogs. You already know where we stand… but which side are you on? Grab a dog, hang out with us, and let’s get into it. #OMFGPodcast #OriginalMontanaFilmGuide #RiverPhoenix #SamShepard #90sCinema #IndieFilm #FilmPodcast #MovieDiscussion #CultCinema #FilmAnalysis #DarkCinema #NeoNoir #CinemaDebate #BadDecisions #HollywoodStories

    The prequel to John Wick ~ Street Kings

    A Quickies mini episode with Matoon and Quick. In this one, we dive into the chaotic world of Street Kings—where alcoholism is just a minor inconvenience when there are two bodies half-buried in your backyard. Who you gonna call? Keanu… and Captain America, of course. It’s a wild ride from the jump—Man on Fire-level saturation, relentless violence, and some surprisingly fun detective work. Plus, we get “The Game” stepping into a movie role like he’s been there before. Join OMFG (Original Montana Film Guide) as we do some back-alley forensics on a movie that’s equal parts mess and masterpiece. Love it or leave it. #OMFG #OriginalMontanaFilmGuide #StreetKings #KeanuReeves #ChrisEvans #TheGame #DirtyCops #CrimeThriller #ActionMovies #MoviePodcast #FilmTalk #MovieNerds #CultCinema #UnderratedMovies #ViolentCinema #ManOnFireVibes #2000sMovies #CopDrama #ForensicsVibes #PodcastLife #MontanaCreators #IndiePodcast #MovieBreakdown #FilmAnalysis #WatchOrSkip #MovieAddicts

    Is Missouri Breaks Marlon Brando's secret masterpiece?

    Sometimes you just have to eat all the butter—even if your cholesterol says otherwise. Marlon Brando, one of the greatest actors of a generation, was no stranger to indulgence. But with greatness comes pressure… and maybe a little cortisol-fueled chaos along the way. And then there’s Jack Nicholson—absolutely at the top of his game in The Missouri Breaks. A strange, sensitive, almost sensual outlaw-farmer type of Jack that somehow works. So the OMFG (Original Montana Film Guide) crew gathered like a bunch of horse thieves at Casa del Rapido and dove into this weird, underrated ‘70s western. Listen to our takeaways—and let us convince you this one’s worth your time. #OMFGPodcast #MontanaFilm #WesternFilms #FilmPodcast #MarlonBrando #JackNicholson #1970sCinema #UnderratedMovies

    Courtney Goes French: Mauvais Sang (Quickies)

    Courtney Blazon is taking a French class—she’s 90% French, after all (and yes, the beret checks out). Her influence has been a great addition to the pod, bringing in a different lens—one that leans into street life, melancholy, chaos, and the strange beauty of being alive, falling in love, and maybe biting someone along the way. Today we’re diving into Mauvais Sang (1986) in a Quickies episode. This shorter format is the brainchild of Larkin Matoon—our resident Mix Master Mike—who spins films from the past like they’re pressed on vinyl. These episodes are short, loose, and a little off our usual structure. So step outside the sanctioned zone with the OMFG (Original Montana Film Guide) crew—and let’s thrive. #OMFGPodcast #OriginalMontanaFilmGuide #MauvaisSang #LeosCarax #FrenchCinema #ArtHouseFilm #QuickiesEpisode #FilmPodcast #IndieFilm #CultCinema #MovieDiscussion #PodcastLife #MissoulaCreatives #FilmLovers #UndergroundCinema

    The Glimmer Man: Peak Seagal Energy

    The OMFG (Original Montana Film Guide) crew is at it again, heading down the only road they’ve ever known—cheap thrills, empty threats, and plenty of lost threads. Our special guest, Tony Gregori—professional comic book artist and good bud—joins us for the ride as we peer into Steven Seagal’s widow’s peak and somehow see ourselves staring back. Beware The Glimmer Man: an unintentional comedy with Russians. #OMFGPodcast #GlimmerMan #StevenSeagal #CultCinema #90sAction #MoviePodcast #MontanaFilmGuide #SoBadItsGood

    Rewatching Stand By Me… It’s Not What You Think

    If you could eat one thing for the rest of your life, what would you choose? Tough call. Unless you’re Courtney Blazon, who would go peanut butter every time. I’m picking ground beef tacos. Larkin is a turkey bacon sandwich guy. Daniel would absolutely demolish fruit pies. The entertainment version of this question always gets me. There’s something mildly terrifying about choosing the same book or movie forever. That might actually be hell. But if I had to choose, Stand by Me is a pretty solid pick. It’s a road movie, a thriller, a coming-of-age story, and it’s packed with enough likable characters that you’re bound to find at least one to connect with. Join OMFG (Original Montana Film Guide) as we discuss low-stakes crime, the long-term effects of seeing a dead body, and Daniel’s history with the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks. #OMFG #OriginalMontanaFilmGuide #StandByMe #MoviePodcast #FilmPodcast #MovieDiscussion #ComingOfAge #RoadMovie #ThrillerMovies #ClassicMovies #StephenKing #PodcastRecommendation #IndiePodcast #MontanaPodcast #FilmLovers #CinemaTalk #MovieFans #PopCulturePodcast #MovieNerds #PodcastLife

    The Patriot - A Militia led by Jizm

    I’ve always believed talent isn’t just some God-given lightning bolt — it’s built. Hard work and dedication matter. Now, I haven’t personally gone down any random Steven Seagal in Russia YouTube rabbit holes (a friend mentioned it, obviously). But you have to admire the confidence. Not exactly an Olympic specimen, yet somehow he always emerges victorious against a dozen attackers. A true master of… cinematic physics. Meanwhile, in a world that feels increasingly chaotic and corrupt, your friends at OMFG (Original Montana Film Guide) decided to revisit The Patriot — because sometimes you just need a reminder to stand up for your town. In our case? Ennis, Montana. We’ll talk rebellion, questionable heroics, freelancing ne’er-do-wells, civic pride, and maybe even solving COVID with pure brainpower. It’s another rabbit hole episode — and yes, by the end, we might just find hell waiting for us. God bless. Stay curious. And remember to vote. #OMFG#OriginalMontanaFilmGuide#ThePatriot#MoviePodcast#FilmDiscussion#FilmNerds#Cinephiles

    The Thicket - Cutthroat Bill fights a fainting goat

    It’s hard to get a tan in the winter — especially in the mountainous Old West. Skin toughens, dries out, and starts to map every contour of a hard life. Scars stand out sharper in the cold air. And Old Cutthroat Bill? She’s not afraid to show us her pain — physical or otherwise. Being an outlaw is a tricky business. When companionship comes through kidnapping, gambling, or whatever dirty hustle gets you a clean dopamine hit, you start to understand the desperation of a gray, sun-starved frontier. It’s not like they had antidepressants. Seasonal gloom probably hit a lot of Westerners hard — and the “treatments” weren’t FDA-approved. Anywho… join your friends at OMFG as we watch the Tubi original The Thicket and spiral into conversations about Juliette Lewis, frontal assault tactics, nepotism, church burnings — and not in that order. You’ll be thrilled by our geography detective work, and whatever you do, don’t cross Dinklage. He may just nail your nether parts to a wooden chair. Godspeed, sinners. #PodcastTags #OMFGPodcast #OriginalMontanaFilmGuide #TheThicket #TubiOriginal #WesternFilm #IndieFilm #JulietteLewis #PeterDinklage #MoviePodcast #FilmDiscussion #FrontierStories #OutlawCinema #MontanaPodcast
