Lowery Lads™ and Cronenboys™ unite as October rolls along. We're joined by writer/director/tweeter extraordinaire Megan Gilbert to talk about filmmaking, the afterlife and how passive-aggressive ghosts can get when you don't listen to their demo.

Ghost month continues apace with Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Kairo aka Pulse. It's tough to imagine this film being set at any other place or any other time but its increasingly prescient and universal themes make for great, indepth discussion. Make sure you stick around until the end to hear Raymond's analysis of what might be the scariest scene in movie history.

October is here and ghost stories came with it, folks. This week we're discussing Personal Shopper which is one of Raymond's all-time favorites. We get into Kristen Stewart's extraordinary thumb acting, this movie's richly textured soundscape and whether or not ghosts have iPhones.

Austin is finally back from Italy so we're discussing one of his all-time favorites with a little help from my dog. We hear about his travels in another installment of Austin's Hayden Voyage™ before getting into what this movie means to him, how it defies the viewer's expectations and what we all expect from art in general. I usually try to write at least three sentences for these so that's what's going on at this point in the description.

Evan Yee jumps on the podcast at the last minute to discuss George Miller's Fury Road followup, Three Thousand Years of Longing. An ode to romance, storytelling and life itself, this film is refreshingly sincere if slightly unconventional. Join us as we discuss its themes, execution and place in Miller's legacy.

Austin is busy gallivanting around Italy so Mella from When Cinephiles Attack joined Raymond in the podcast factory for a discussion of Patricia Cardoso's Real Women Have Curves. We discuss the film's legacy, Cardoso's attention to detail and America Ferrera's brilliant breakout performance. This indie trailblazer may be underseen but it undoubtedly deserves a place in the visual canon.

We celebrate Labor Day and give another tip of the cap to James Caan with a discussion of Michael Mann's proletarian powerhouse debut, Thief. Rich with atmosphere and obsessed with process, Thief is a simple story that's elevated by masterful filmmaking and topnotch performances. It's so good, Austin would try to steal the election from Misery again if he could. Whether or not he gets the diamonds, James Caan will always have our hearts.

Join us as we discuss the film that looms the largest over Scorsese's early work, John Ford's The Searchers. Our guest breaks down the many reasons he counts this as his favorite film of all time and we end the episode by running down a few favorites of our own with the highly anticipated Western Draft.

After mentioning it on multiple episodes, we finally jump into the Time Tunnel to discuss Sydney Pollack's The Yakuza. It's always tough for me to figure out what to write here but it's even more difficult this week because I don't leave a whole lot left unsaid during this discussion. In case you can't tell, this is one of my favorite films but it launches a much broader conversation on film culture in the 21st century, how this movie might be different today, what makes a great onscreen hero and why Ken Takakura fits the bill.

We'll be back next week with The Searchers. Enjoy the show!

Ra'Shawn and Mella from When Cinephiles Attack join us for a discussion of Jordan Peele's newest nightmare. We're talkin' Gordy, we're talkin' Kaluuya, and you better believe we're talkin' about how this movie (like all movies) is a western. Then, we end the episode by discovering that Austin is a bad planner and worse negotiator. As I upload this at 2:45 AM, I'm sure of exactly one thing; This podcast is a bad miracle.
