    S04 E24 The hunt is on

    Join Josh, Jason, and Adam as they discuss how hunting is portrayed in movies. The hosts talk about how hunting can be a metaphor for power and how it is often used as a way to show that a character is upper class. They also discuss how the social strata of the hunter is often reflected by the prey they select. After the hunting discussion, Jason leads a review of The Legacy of a Whitetail Deer Hunter. This 2018 Netflix film stars Josh Brolin as Buck Ferguson, a famous hunter who takes his son, Jaden, on his first deer hunting trip. Danny McBride plays Buck's cameraman, Don, and Montana Jordan plays Jaden. If you're a fan of Danny McBride, you'll enjoy The Legacy of a Whitetail Deer Hunter. If you're not a fan, you might not like it. It’s a niche film that will appeal to certain audiences. The guys also talk about The Deer Hunter, and The Most Dangerous Game, and Mousehunt

    S04 E20 Werewolf. There Podcast

    Ever wonder why werewolves are such a horror staple? On this episode of "The Bricked Pit," we're diving deep into the world of cinematic werewolves, exploring the myths, the movies, and everything in between. We'll trace the werewolf legend back to its roots in ancient Greece (turns out people have been afraid of turning into wolves for a long time!), and talk about how those stories have changed over time. Plus, we'll discuss how 20th-century horror classics like "The Wolf Man" shaped how we see werewolves today. Remember those awesome practical effects in "The Howling" and "An American Werewolf in London?" We'll revisit those iconic transformation scenes and talk about why they're still considered the gold standard . Of course, no discussion of werewolf movies is complete without talking about classic tropes like full moon transformations, the battle between man and beast, and those oh-so-contagious bites. We'll also dig into some of our favorite werewolf movies, including the feminist horror flick "Ginger Snaps" and the hilarious horror-comedy "Werewolves Within." So, grab your silver bullets and join us for a howling good time as we explore the wild world of werewolves on film!
