    Cats (2019) - I Have No Cat Ears, and I Must Meow

    The lost footage from the Event Horizon has finally been uncovered, and we get to see the scene that transpired on board... This is pretty much what Cats (2019) adaptation is, is.

    Why do humans have such a fascination with causing great disasters in film, and media in the name of cats?
    How wide is the trench that uncanny valley is is in this film?

    In this episode we delve into why the film is such an odd and twisted product as it is, is.

    Black Christmas (1974) - Home, But Not So Alone

    It’s that time of year again.

    That time where the weather/holiday season leads us to be sequestered with those near and dearest to us..

    Well, maybe not those dearest to us..

    In this episode we take a look at the Christmas Slasher film Black Christmas (1974) - A cult classic. We take a look at how truly unsettling this time of year can be, and how those closest to us may hide the darkest of intentions.

    The Station Podcast - 2021 Film Retrospective

    The Station Podcast is little over a year old now!

    To celebrate this fact, we take a look back over our first year of doing the podcast, to examine our own recurrent themes.

    Covering pretty much all of the films that we have been going through in this past year - sort of reviving the original concept for the podcast.

    Post-Modernism, dystopias, nature reclaiming it’s place, odd cats.. It's all here, in one glorious (and perhaps lovecraftian) amalgamation.  

    So, come join us as we delve into the past year as The Station Podcast.

    The Green Knight (2021) - Headstrong and A Gully Of Fern

    The Green Knight (2021) - Headstrong and A Gully Of Fern

    Moss, degradation and dilapidation.

    These things are often the product of nature reclaiming its place, and ridding what once was - eminent and gleaming, to rubble and decay.

    As time often plays a vital hand in nature taking it's toll...

    This week we look at the 2021 adaptation of the mythic poem - The Green Knight.
    We examine how these themes come to light within the film.

    Mortality can often weigh down on us, like being on the executioner's block...

    Mullholland Drive (2001) - Lynchesque

    Mullholland Drive (2001) - Lynchesque

    What can our dreams tell us about reality? Is Synchronicity a phenomena that blurs the threshold between this world and one of pure intuition? Does our subconscious know us better than us, what would that look like visually...? 

    This week we take a look at the very bewildering and the highly respected 2001 Art-House Mystery Drama known as Mullholland Drive.

    After all, Hollywood is the place where dreams come to life.

    Cat In The Hat (2003) - The Cat That Rocked Pandora's Box

    In this month's episode, we take a look at the nightmarish 2003 adaptation of Dr. Seuss's classic children's book - The Cat In The Hat.

    We examine why this seemingly innocent film is completely freakish and disturbed, and how this potentially could have come about.
