Forgotten Cinema

The Mikes are working the morgue and running the corner with Fonzi and Beetlejuice on this week's episode of "Forgotten Cinema" as they discuss the 1982 film, "Night Shift" starring Henry Winkler, Shelley Long, and featuring Michael Keaton in his first starring film role.

Neither Mike Butler or Mike Field have seen this film about city morgue workers who through some unusual circumstances become widely successful pimps on the side. What did the Mikes think of this film? What's it like seeing Fonzi as an uncool coward and how did Keaton do in his first big time role? Find out by checking out this episode!

The Mikes are seeing the light and getting real smart with John Travolta as he creeps on Kyra Sedgwick.

Mike Butler and Mike Field discuss the 1996 film "Phenomenon". This nice PG drama film is one that Butler remembers fondly, but does it hold up? Is Travolta the only choice for the lead role? What inspired this film? And is there anything Robert Duvall is NOT amazing in?!

The Mike's are traveling with Tony Shalhoub and his family to a glass house filled with ghosts on this episode of Forgotten Horror as they discuss the 2001 film, Thir13en Ghosts.

Listen in as Mike Butler and Mike Field discuss the awesome set design of this ghost trap disguised as a house and the cool practical ghost make-up and in camera effects while simultaneously taking issue with the dialogue, unclear plot points, and lack of true scares or kills. Nonetheless, Butler still enjoys the late 90's/Early 00's of it all.

So, grab your smudge sticks, please notice the glass walls to the left and right of you and settle down for Forgotten Horror.
