Following a controversy that held up its release last year, Craig Zobel's "The Hunt" came out just in time before American theatres closed due to a worldwide pandemic. In this podcast, Andrew (who paid $19.99 to rent it a week later) speaks to Ohio-based filmmaker Henrique Couto (who saw it on the big screen opening weekend) about what is currently the Last Movie Standing. NOTE: This discussion contains spoilers about "the Hunt."

How are movie-goers coping without being able to go to the movies? It's a question no one in over a century has had to ask, but we need to come up with an answer. In this episode, Andrew offers a few suggestions.

Pixar's latest movie might not be their biggest hit (or most well-received), but could it be their best? Andrew makes the case for "Onward" from his car (appropriately) after seeing it. 

For the 500th episode of the Cinema File Podcast (est. 2009), Andrew took a social media poll asking which notoriously yucky film the listeners would like him to do a reaction commentary for, and Peter Jackson's 1992 gorefest "Braindead" (aka "Dead Alive) won. This is the 98-ish minute cut of the film.

Former Blockbuster Video co-workers Andrew and Sam give their respective picks and predictions for the 2020 Academy Awards as well as reviews for several new movies including GRETEL & HANSEL, DOLITTLE, BAD BOYS FOR LIFE, 1917, LITTLE WOMEN, JAY & SILENT BOB REBOOT and more.

In the Cinema File's ongoing CultCore podcast series created by Kate Owens, the 2003 Shadow Entertainment release starring Julie Strain and Brinke Stevens is discussed as an under-appreciated team-up of sorts between two of the hardest-working icons in B-movie history.

By taking steps to make audiences think it's just some "Alien" ripoff, "Underwater" tricks us into caring about its characters by showing how much they care for each other, but doesn't forget an iconic aspect of the sci-fi horror classic that often gets overlooked.

Former Blockbuster Video co-workers Andrew and Sam give their personal top 10 lists for 2019 and look ahead at movies they're most excited about for 2020.

I've been a professional film critic for over a decade and I completely enjoyed "Cats". Here's my handy guide to how that was possible, and a few suggestions on how this modern cinematic miracle can happen to you.

As the card said in "Love Actually," at Christmas you tell the truth. And the truth is I just saw "Home Alone" parts 1 and 2 for the first time just a few weeks ago courtesy of my concerned friend Henrique. How does a 10-year veteran film critic react? Find out here.
