This week, we get in the holiday spirit with Jeremy Saulnier's 2007 horror comedy, Murder Party. What would you do if you found a mysterious invitation on Halloween? Would you bake pumpkin bread? And if so, would you frost it? That last part isn't in the movie. We're just asking for a friend. Plus, a Cinner review of the new Halloween and we re-enact a classic scene from an Oscar-winning horror film. Also, watch Blue Ruin.

This week, we distill our favorite movie soundtrack, Cameron Crowe's 1992 Singles. It's a time capsule of a moment, one of the moments of musical history and our lifetime. Actually, it's a time capsule of the moment before the moment, a prescient assemblage of the soon-to-be sound of the decade. Plus, the history of plaid and what Frank really thinks of Billy Corgan.

This week, we discuss the 2015 documentary, The Wolfpack, about a band of brothers confined to their apartment and forced to live their lives through movie reenactments. But, how real is real when it comes to nonfiction film-making? Plus, old home movies, beer, Venom, and some top-notch, People's Choice Award level acting by your beloved hosts.

Quentin Tarantino's 1992 film changed the way we thought about movies. And not just us. It kicked open the door for the indie film boom of the 90s and its influence is still riding strong today. Also, for the record, we do believe in tipping.

This week, we distill the films of Gen X auteur, Quentin Tarantino. We came to life as film fans with him and we think we love him, but do his early classics still hold up? Do they overshadow his later films? Did he really make Death Proof? Plus, all the deep insight and/or nonsense you have grown to love.

In honor of the passing of American icon (and Floridian) Burt Reynolds, we did a full movie commentary for his most iconic role in Smokey and the Bandit. We defend Sally Field, gawk at Jackie's Gleason's waist size, and get historically deep into 1910's Mann Act. Plus, Frank gets a CB handle. It's a multimedia Cinner party.

This week, Wes Anderson takes his turn in The Distillery*. We discuss all his films, from his indie start with Bottle Rocket through his current status as an international auteur. Some say he begins to stumble mid-career (including one of us). Some say he has created a consistently pleasing universe with underrated depth masked by his unique aesthetics. Some are correct.

Do you remember 2007? What a different world we lived in. Or it was pretty much the same. Who can remember that far back. But we do remember the movies and now so will you! It was a top-heavy year, featuring two all-time classics that battled it out for the Oscar and our hearts. So, which do we pick as the best: No Country for Old Men or There Will Be Blood? Well, we're not going to tell you here, now are we?

You know we love distilling films, but what about people? No, not in a Soylent Green kinda way, but in an entertaining podcast gimmick way. It's the first CineSlam extravaganza featuring bare knuckle throw-downs between pretty boys Brad and Leo and action grandpas Sly and Arnold. Who leaves the squared circle wearing the acting belt?
