Why Does the Wilhelm Scream?

Brock Kingsley and Jason Wiseman discuss and review movies worth watching in a way that nerd-ish types do when they sit down to chat. Passionate opinions, (bad) inside jokes, obscure references, and rants; there will be rants. Often irreverent, sometimes insightful. Plus, occasional special guests and special topics.

    The Second Annual Screamies!

    “The Screamy is given in recognition of achievements (or lack thereof) in direction, performance, and “should have’s” that represents Wilhelm’s iconoclasm and overall opinionated views during “the previous year.” Tonight, we invite you to Scream, sit back, and enjoy.     Keep in touch and read more at whydoesthewilhelmscream.com on instagram and threads @whydoesthewilhelmpod  Find out more about upcoming Fort Worth Film Club screenings and events at fortworthfilmclub.com and @fortworthfilm Support the next generation of film lovers at reelhousefoundation.org and on facebook reelhousefoundation Artwork by @_mosla_

    'Nosferatu,' 'Anora,' and Kelly Reichardt's 'First Cow'

    We're back, Screamers, with another banger of an episode. A couple new films with Robert Eggers' take on Nosferatu, and Sean Baker's retconning of Pretty Woman with 'Anora.' We also dip back into Kelly Reichardt's filmography with 'First Cow' a platonic love story/anti-manifest destiny/capitalist allegory.     Keep in touch and read more at whydoesthewilhelmscream.com on instagram and threads @whydoesthewilhelmpod  Find out more about upcoming Fort Worth Film Club screenings and events at fortworthfilmclub.com and @fortworthfilm Support the next generation of film lovers at reelhousefoundation.org and on facebook reelhousefoundation Artwork by @_mosla_

    'Heretic,' Kelly Reichardt's 'Night Moves,' and 'Azrael'

    On this episode...Brock's dog, Sam, doesn't enjoy hunting; things get political before turning to movies, which, well, things still stay kind of political. The films discussed are 'Heretic,' 'Azrael,' and Kelly Reichardt's 'Night Moves.' Tangential discussions of the Bob Dylan biopic and the Robbie Williams 'biopic' also occur.      Keep in touch and read more at whydoesthewilhelmscream.com on instagram and threads @whydoesthewilhelmpod  Find out more about upcoming Fort Worth Film Club screenings and events at fortworthfilmclub.com and @fortworthfilm Support the next generation of film lovers at reelhousefoundation.org and on facebook reelhousefoundation Artwork by @_mosla_
