For decades past, the month of May used to be well into blockbuster movie season. But now, thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, theaters are closed and there doesn’t seem to be a “big summer popcorn movie” season this year. At least, not yet. Are there still any great movies to watch on VOD? Your late-night host Jason Pyles (aka “Jay of the Dead”) is here in Episode 027 of Considering the Cinema to answer that question for you!

During this show, Jay will bring you the scoop on 2020 new release movies on VOD, such as Capone (2020) and Green Rush (2020) and Blood and Money (2020) and Walkaway Joe (2020). But the major highlights of Episode 027 are the three special guests: Jay welcomes BillChete and Lady Phantom of Movies in 4K and Horror Movie Weekly to help him review the Horror chiller The Lodge (2020). And Jason also welcomes the Irishman himself, Karl Huddleston from Movie Podcast Weekly, to review The King’s Speech (2010). This episode features an incredibly sobering comment from Justin the Juggernaut. And as always, Jay brings you a bunch of Mini Reviews, including a quick description of Love Wedding Repeat (2020) on Netflix.

Don’t whiz on the Sacred Ancestral Tree! Good advice. Anybody who has been listening to Jay of the Dead’s podcasts for awhile knows that there is often content that was recorded months (or even years!) previously before it ever sees the light of day. But that content does eventually get released!

In Episode 026 of Considering Horror Cinema, your late-night Horror host Jason Pyles (aka “Jay of the Dead”) is finally revealing the podcast recordings that have been hiding in his attic! All the reviews in this episode were recorded in 2019. This episode has the longest review ever committed to the film 976-Evil (1989), as Jay of the Dead discusses it with Greg “The Gray Man” Bensch. (It’s about an hour long.) Then Jay does a 75-minute deep-dive discussion of Midsommar (2019) with the oracle Jody Horror Guy and his unclouded intuition. Jay also gripes a little about the term “Folk Horror” and goes on a lot about the scariest disease ever, Munchausen syndrome by proxy. Jay also brings you solocast reviews of BrightBurn (2019) and The Intruder (2019) and The Perfection (2019) and Friend Request (2017) and The Hunted (2014) and Basement Jack (2009).

You’re not seeing double. And no, this isn’t a rerun. Yes, you are indeed getting a SECOND celebration of the very best films from 2010 to 2019 — but with three of the most obsessed movie-fan cinephiles you’ve ever heard! Your late night host, Jason Pyles (aka “Jay of the Dead“), and Considering the Cinema present Encore – Another Top 10 Movies of the 2010s Decade Show! In Episode 023, Jason welcomes his friends, Dave “Dr. Shock” Becker and filmmaker Mack Robins, to present their Top 10 Movies of the 2010s Decade, as well as their five Honorable Mentions. And since Jason already listed his Top 15 movies of the 2010s during Episode 016, in this episode, he provides his best picks of the decade for 11 through 25. This is a must-listen episode!

Notes about Episode 023: For simplicity’s sake, we are using the year listed on IMDb to determine each film’s year of release. And this episode was recorded in two different sittings, months apart: The first half was recorded on Feb. 8, 2020, and the second half was recorded on April 19, 2020.
