Cinema Possessed

Join Us! Jack, Justin & Corey take apart Sam Raimi's ferociously original THE EVIL DEAD (1981), the ultimate experience in grueling terror! The three talk about their first times seeing the film, share their appreciation for the franchise, dissect the nerd appeal of Bruce Campbell, debate which body part they would dismember first, critique adults acting like children, and Jack pulls out an early home movie and explains how influential the movie was to him as a young filmmaker. Oh! And Jack gets possessed by a Kandarian demon and forces Justin and Corey to play a game.

As if! Jack, Justin and Corey give snaps to Amy Heckerling's teen movie classic CLUELESS (1995)! Nostalgia runs rampant in this totally sporadic episode (did we use that right?). The three drool over the film's iconic fashion, whip-smart screenplay and joyful tone, debate the stigmas of The Valley, and try to decide if the on-screen step-sibling romance is actually that weird. Meanwhile, Jack reveals how Amy Heckerling influenced his sexually formative years, Justin breaks down the connections to Jane Austin's EMMA, and Corey relates to Cher with her own high-school story of unrequited love. This podcast is totally buggin'.

MmmHmm. Jack and Justin take a trip down to Arkansas with Billy Bob Thornton’s award winning SLING BLADE (1996)! The boys talk scene-setting DVD menus, rhapsodize about the low-key charm of Arkansas movies, rave about Billy Bob’s transformative acting style, break down Sling Blade’s impact on culture, and Jack weeps like a baby about ten different times trying to describe scenes. Then Corey joins to give her take on hometown nostalgia, weird field trips in middle school, and bad southern accents. Jack ends the episode with some surprise snacks.

Rush, rush! Jack and Justin say hello to Brian De Palma’s little film, SCARFACE (1983)! The boys gush about Jack’s gorgeous DVD collectors case of the movie, discuss its impact on pop culture, critique the overly white-washed casting, nerd out over the Giorgio Moroder score, and dissect how the film is an outlier in De Palma’s filmography. Then Corey joins them to discuss the film’s iconic fashion, Tony Montana’s likability and why only Michelle Pfeiffer can pull off that hair style.

Jack and Justin spill their guts on Tobe Hooper’s seminal horror classic, THE TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE (1974)! The boys reminisce on when they first saw the film, make the case for Leatherface as a sympathetic villain, speculate on the pro-vegetarian themes and intended comedy of the script, and take to task some of the more troublesome aspects of its production. Then they’re joined by Corey Clifford to get a slightly less nostalgic perspective as she shares her takes on what makes a horror movie watchable, her love of a 90 minute runtime and why the character of Franklin actually rules.

Each week best friends & filmmakers, Jack Bishop & Justin Nijm, take a close look at one film in their combined DVD & BluRay collections to find out what it was about it that originally possessed them to want to possess it. They revisit the film, bonus features and all, and discuss whether or not the film still holds that power over them today. Then they'll hear from actor, director Corey Clifford for a fresh perspective, and in the end they'll decide whether the film deserves to keep it's place on the movie shelf... or be given away... TO YOU!
