The Reel DMC Movie Podcast

Three longtime friends discuss a wide range of films including horror movies, action flicks, comedies, and sci-fi; good or bad we'll give our take. Come hang out with Dave, Marcus, and Colin and see if you agree.

    Basic Instinct (1992): An Artifact of the ‘90s or a True Classic?

    Dave, Marcus, and Colin continue their journey through the films of director Paul Verhoeven. Colin makes the case for the film being one of Verhoeven’s best but Dave and Marcus are not convinced. Everybody agrees the famous interrogation leg crossing scene is iconic and that the film has some fun cheesiness. But while Colin finds the film still delivers on the eroticism, Dave thinks the sex scenes are tame and boring–and Marcus is somewhere in the middle. And although the film was noted to be...

  2. Total Recall (1990) - A campy Paul Verhoeven fever dream or a masterpiece of sci-fi?

    Total Recall (1990) - A campy Paul Verhoeven fever dream or a masterpiece of sci-fi?

    Dave, Marcus, and Colin discuss Paul Verhoeven's sci-fi classic Total Recall (1990). We all really enjoyed revisiting the sci-fi action movie and wonder is it that last great 80's action movie? Can anyone else play Quaid other than Arnold? And is it real or all in his mind?

  3. Blue Thunder (1983) A Good Film or a "Hot Mince Pie?"

    Blue Thunder (1983) A Good Film or a "Hot Mince Pie?"

    Dave, Marcus and Colin rewatch a film from their youth and have a very different experience. What was once an an intense, dark action film has become--to adult eyes--flat out hilarious. The guys marvel at officer Lymangood’s juvenile horniness, love Murphy’s wise cracking antics, and all agree the “conspiracy” makes almost no sense whatsoever. And let's not forget the especially bizarre dialogue: what the hell does “a hot mince pie under each arm” actually mean? Don’t be a “JAFO.” Just tune i...

  4. Lifeforce (1985) - Tobe Hooper's Big Swing (And a Miss)

    05/11/2024

    Lifeforce (1985) - Tobe Hooper's Big Swing (And a Miss)

    Dave, Marcus and Colin escape Mathtilda May’s entrancing beauty long enough to discuss Tobe Hooper’s ambitious $25 million Space Vampire sci-fi epic. While it fails to deliver a coherent storyline, believable characters, or any level of logic, it more than makes up for in chaotic entertainment. Dave fails to master Steve Railsback’s character name, Colin does his best impression of several characters, and Marcus thinks his friends must have seen a better film. The guys remain confused by….wel...

  5. Rob Zombie's Halloween II (2009): Is this technically even a HALLOWEEN movie?

    10/31/2023

    Rob Zombie's Halloween II (2009): Is this technically even a HALLOWEEN movie?

    After discussing Rob Zombie’s original Halloween remake, the guys decide to take a run at the sequel, Halloween II. Colin is having none of it, Marcus doesn’t want to live in Zombie’s world, and while Dave can appreciate some of what Zombie was attempting, everybody agrees the movie is generally unpleasant, extremely violent, and narratively bizarre. Nobody understands (or cares about) ghostly apparitions and white horses, and we’re all confused why EVERY PERSON in Haddonfield a disgusting hu...

  6. Alien (1979) - Ridley Scott craftsmanship and the start of the franchise

    10/02/2023

    Alien (1979) - Ridley Scott craftsmanship and the start of the franchise

    Dave, Marcus, and Colin discuss Ridley Scott's sci-fi masterpiece Alien, the birth of the franchise, the artistry of the sets, and Veronica Cartwright's fantastic terror performance.

  7. The Gray Man (2022): Are Netflix Original Films Actually Worth Watching?

    08/30/2023

    The Gray Man (2022): Are Netflix Original Films Actually Worth Watching?

    The guys discuss the film, the state of modern action and Netflix original films. Everybody loves the action but finds the rest of the story threadbare. They discuss the effectiveness of both “moist” and “wet” teams, compare the film to a Chili’s chicken sandwich, marvel at the range and speed of mini-taxis, and debate the best 80’s bubblegum brands/flavors. Lots of praise for Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans, but they can’t agree on which fictional super-assassin would win in a fight between J...

  8. The Thing (1982) - John Carpenter's 80's horror masterpiece

    08/08/2023

    The Thing (1982) - John Carpenter's 80's horror masterpiece

    The guys discuss the classic sci-fi horror film - arguably John Carpenter’s greatest film. Everybody marvels at Rob Bottin’s amazing practical effects, but Marcus doesn’t love all the gore. High praise for Kurt Russell, questions about flamethrower management, and Wilford Brimley gets REALLY excited dissecting Alien dogs. Grab a bottle of J&B scotch, and enjoy the ride!
