October 15, 2016Ep 25 - Who Killed Captain Alex? - #WAKALIWOODATTHEHOLLYWOODThe film making language is always evolving. People across the globe view films through the lens of their individual cultures and customs, and it is only natural that those who would add to cinema would do so through that same lens. Who Killed Captain Alex? (2010) is prime example of this. It was made in the slums of Uganda, Africa by a team of filmmakers who dubbed themselves "Wakaliwood" and set out to make Uganda's first action film. We don't often ask, but please, if you can, watch the film to see what people can achieve when you're armed with determination, creativity and passion for films. Special thanks to Chris Archer who appears as a guest host this episode....more0minPlay
October 06, 2016Ep 24 - MYSTERY MEN - Blue Raja CultBack before the days of the MCU and BVSDOJ when life was simple a little film came along and predicted everything that would follow after it.

What causes it to stick in our hearts and minds the way it does? And more importantly, is it any good?...more0minPlay
September 29, 2016Ep 23 - THE NUMBER 23 - The Spoopy TapesFrom the Desk of Dr. Fitzgerald Harshaw to the Goons Orderlies of the Schumacher Asylum: We will soon be receiving three new patients here at this fine hospital: Parker Connell, Christopher Davidson and Olivia Whiteford, otherwise known as the hosts of Batshit Monsterpiece Theater. I know we all love hearing their hot takes on cinematic monsterpieces week after week, but recently it's been brought to my attention by our benefactors that their attempts to unpack Joel Schumacher's The Number 23 (2007) have driven them insane. The trio will be committed to our care until such time that therapy rejuvenates them or, as our benefactors have informed me, more drastic measures become necessary. THESE THREE ARE TO BE KEPT ON THE PREMISES AT ALL COSTS. Dr. Fitzgerald Harshaw, PhD...more0minPlay
September 22, 2016Ep 22 - SOUTHLAND TALES - Bicentennial2006 was a hard year but Richard Kelly knew it was only gonna get harder.

September 15, 2016Ep 21 - GODS OF EGYPT/X-MEN APOCALYPSE/BATMAN THE KILLING JOKE - TrifectaSometimes movies land with a wet thud. This week BSMPT is talking about three such wet thuds. Gods of Egypt (2016) is the latest attempt to stay relevant with weird results. X-Men: Apocalypse (2016) is Bryan Singer's latest attempt to prove he has no idea what he's doing. And Batman: The Killing Joke (2016) is DC Animation digging up the last good story they haven't desecrated. All this is discussed and more in this our TRIFECTA episode!...more0minPlay

September 01, 2016Ep 19 - THE MERMAID - The Shape of Things to ComeEvery once in a while a film comes along that changes everything and sometimes it's a film that you've never heard of.
