Films & Filth episodes

July 14, 2020 Detective Pikachu
Luke loves Pokemon and is an expert on the topic. Matt played a few minutes of HeartGold ten years ago. Thus, we enter the world of Detective Pikachu with wildly different perspectives. Hear how it all works out in this first episode in our Dreamcast vs. GameCube challenge!

July 07, 2020 Total Recall
I think we’ve already made it clear that this is an Arnold positive podcast, and this one is about as Arnold as you can get. Director Paul Verhoven went as ultraviolent as possible (unless you count some of his other films), and we dive down into the nitty-gritty of this Martian civilizing, blood squib blasting, and absolutely tripped out mind-fragger of a film.

June 30, 2020 Independence Day (w/ Mark Malek from "Quaranstein")
Luke is British and watches this every Independence Day. Mark is American, got sick in the theatre watching this, and would definitely not vote for Bill Pullman. Matt mostly just giggles like a loon. That’s three-fourths of the Gospel truth on ID4, and all of it if you’ll take in that Luke has “John” in his middle name.
Today’s guest, Mark Malek, was involved in “Quaranstein,” a quarantined Frankenstein hybrid that you can read about here:

And Mark actually contributed the music you’re hearing between segments in this episode:

Luke also raps about Pokemon (sometimes literally) at Luke Loves Pokemon:

June 25, 2020 Revolt in the Fifth Dimension
Matt decided to make Luke watch 1967’s “Revolt in the Fifth Dimension” without mentioning what it was. Several minutes of hijinks ensued.

June 23, 2020 Transformers (w/ Stuart Webb from Podcast Maximus)
This week we chat about what is arguably the template for the 2010’s blockbuster. If our normal conversation isn’t geek enough for you, we’ve brought in Stuart Webb, who wrote “Transformation: A Personal Journey Through the British Transformers Comic,” and co-hosts “Podcast Maximus.”

June 16, 2020 Space is the Place
We rolled tape on this Blaxploitation, Afro-Futurist jam on May 24th, not knowing that the next day the whole world was gonna straight up open that putrid can of worms called “racism,” that had been taking up way too much space on the shelf. It’s not that we regret what we said here, but we obviously omit George Floyd, who was still thankfully walking at the time, and we jokingly dismiss white supremacists. We would have given them more firebrand hell the next day. Black Lives Matter. Why? Because the sheep that has come near the wolf’s mouth is the one that needs your attention at the moment, not the ones that are safe in the herd. This is why we’ve gotta put Black Lives Matter at the tip of our tongues at the moment. Lest us not forget, this film may be fantastically weird, but Sun Ra’s core metaphysics have never been more important than the moment you are calling Now.

June 10, 2020 Back to the Future (w/ David Turner from "The Computer Game Show")
Everyone loves this one, right? It’s like a Platonic solid of a movie. Luke and Matt needed some heavy artillery to do this one justice, so we are joined by Dave Turner of “The Computer Game Show” and “Star Call's” podcasts. Geek love is thrown at the flick, uncomfortable questions about yo’ momma are asked,and we try to flux capacitate our brains into the weird mechanics of time travel.

May 26, 2020 Godzilla
Matt and Luke take on this monster of a flick from atop a rugged Japanese mountaintop. Be warned, the original is not one of the fun Godzilla flicks, but it happens to be the legitimately great one. You may have not even seen this as the original cut went unavailable in the west until 2014 or so.

May 20, 2020 Color Out of Space
It’s like the color, maaannn. And the space. And crazy Nic Cage having a go with Lovecraftian sci-fi horror. The movie pretty much came out of nowhere, but Matt and Luke find it a great jumping of point to talk about the weirds.
