Quick Takes!: Up Against Amanda

Come on in, Maniacs. The water is VERY nice. Join Paul, Mike and special guest Tim as they break down the early 2000's erotic thriller "Up Against Amanda", all while sipping on some wine in the hot tub. This episode of Quick Takes has as many twists and turns as the movie itself, so get ready for some real world intrigue!

Special Guest Faith Roswell joins Paul on this episode to chat about the 1958 drive-in classic THE BLOB! Faith is the author of "Movie Monsters of the Deep", a book about sharks, kraken, kaiju and all sorts of underwater scary stuff! There's a link below if you'd like to check it out.

Thanks to Faith for being on the show and thanks to all of you Maniacs for listening! Our 12th Annual B-Movie Marathon is this weekend, so we hope to chat with you then! www.bmoviemania.com

J and Paul welcome horror actress Marina Schenk to B-Movie Mania to help them break down all the revenge in 2017's Revenge from director Coralie Fargeat.

Marina and J also talk about their new, short horror film, That Damned Yellow Raincoat which you can watch right here on YouTube. They discuss festivals, podcasts and where the film is headed in the future.

We're kicking off 2024 with some Not Quite Canon! Join Mike and Paul as they welcome special guest and valued friend Tim Bavlnka to discuss Dax Flame's movie about the making of YouTube, which is very appropriately titled... "Making YouTube".

Please note that this episode was recorded awhile back and sat on the shelf for a bit, so some of the information is a little outdated. It's fine. Dax Flame, if you're out there... hope you enjoy our review! 

You can watch the full film for free on YouTube, of course!

Happy Thanksgiving, Maniacs! Welcome to our very first (and very last) Potluck Special. Grab a plate and load up on some great holiday movies with us! This is something we recorded a couple years ago and never put out - until now! Thanks to AI technology, we were able to fix some mistakes and finally release this special episode. So please enjoy, and leave a comment below to let us know what movies YOU are thankful for this year!

In 2020, J and Mike discussed Ginger Snaps. This time J and Paul discuss Ginger Snaps 2: Unleashed, complete with updated cinematic universe theories! Mike calls in on this episode. We really don't know where he was or what he was doing but he sent us photos of what he was looking at. Come to think of it, we haven't heard from him in quite some time. Should we call somebody?

Here's Jason Huls' newest film, That Damned Yellow Raincoat.

This is it, everyone! It's been a wild ride over the last few years, but it's time to bring season 6 to a close. The boys laugh, they pray, and they even suggest who you should talk to for a belated Thanksgiving dinner in this long lost finale episode! And they also talk about the 2016 animated film, The Misty Green Sky, which you can watch it on Tubi here. Thank you, listeners, for sharing the laughs, the fun, and the love.

Thank you listeners for your concern and impatience for our episode on The Misty Green Sky. We assure you, it is on the way, but in the immortal words of Jeff Goldblum, life uh... life gets in the way. As an apology for the lateness of our final episode of the season, here's a Quick Take of Chris and Mike laughing for half an hour. There's also some discussion of Ninja 3: The Domination.

You have questions.  If you have even more questions after watching The Misty Green Sky on Tubi, you'll find all the answers you seek next week on B Movie Mania.
