Uncanny Cinema is your home for the obscure, the bizarre, the unloved, the overlooked, and the underappreciated in film. We cover all genres but focus on films off the beaten path as we highlight oddities, champion obscurities, and marvel at the projects that somehow came to be. Discussions include spoilers, but the next cinematic treasure on our list is announced at the close of each episode, so feel free to follow along at home.

Marcel the Shell with Shoes On (2021)
Me and the droogs look at the criminally underseen and ridiculously charming Marcel the Shell with Shoes On feature film from 2021, marveling at its humor, beauty, pathos, and more.

Mother Goose Rock 'n' Rhyme (1990)

April Fools' Day Switcheroo - Once Upon a Time in the West (1968)
For our annual April Fools' Day Switcheroo, we look at the certified classic western Once Upon a Time in the West with a haunted Charles Bronson, a despicable Henry Fonda, a beautiful Claudia Cardinale, and a playful Jason Robards.
Panelists: Eric, Jimmy -

Broadcast Signal Intrusion (2021)
The crew goes deep down the rabbit hole with plenty of red yarn to try to decode Broadcast Signal Intrusion, the conspiracy theory movie that weaves a tangled web.
Panelists: Jason, Jimmy, Jack -
Freaked (1993)
We strap in tight to check out Freaked, which is possibly the most '90s movie in existence. Featuring bizarre humor, great practical effects, a who's who of character actors, and Nosey, this hard-to-find film is an unexpected delight.
Panelists: Eric, Steve
Customer Reviews
Great podcast for weird movies
This podcast is great for exploring the weirdest reaches of the movie universe.
Adolescent, a bit snarky, but at least they care
If you want to hear sentence fragments beginning with “like” , “ sort of like” “ closed to like the Twilight Zone” ad infinitum, this is your site of sites!
These are basically roundtables
on episodes of the Outer Limits.
The general pattern is to point out the primitive characters and old plot lines are a source of amusement, particularly compared to today’s
sci fi.
Picture a group of college boys deconstructing
each portion of dated Outer Limits script elements in MST 3000 style, and interminally
holding them up to ridicule as compared to what
would be possible in true physics and without any “ suspension of reality” in which almost all movies and television episodes depend!
The point is to sound cool and to critique the lack of reality moorings in this era’s writing and special effects
Great Host
Really enjoy the host of this one and his strange movie selections are the best!!!
