Ep. 036 - Beasts of No Nation


Listen Later

For October 20th, 2015, the OG crew Mike, Red and Scott meet in the Nostromo Lounge and discuss the surprisingly BitCoin-filled teen retro-comedy DOPE, the 1968 classic ROSEMARY'S BABY on potentially being the very first modern horror film, Ernest Cline's latest geek culture slathered novel ARMADA and a roller coaster ride of fan expectations, Mike's thoughts on the extremely short lived ABC sitcom MIXOLOGY, Scott drones on yet again about how Peter Berg's BATTLESHIP is an extremely competent film adaptation of something a silly as a board game, Robert Rodriquez signs on to direct the long-gestating BATTLE ANGEL ALITA for producer James Cameron, and much, much more before our featured review of the harrowing Netflix Original film BEASTS OF NO NATION from writer, director and cinematographer Cary Joji Fukunaga.
