GBW Podcast

Summer makes us lazy here at GBW. Plus, our planned episode just didn't pan out. So, for this episode there is no topic and we're talking about the abundant films we watched since last time.

We start off talking about attending Vancouver's Cinemafantasique 3 this weekend where we had a blast with Pool Party Massacre, checked out the latest Nuke 'Em High film, met a psychotic Oliver, and enjoyed multiple short films.

From there it's a smorgasbord of Kong, a Gun Woman, some amazons, some gladiators, a Blackcoat's Daughter, some Fast Times, and much more!

We here at GBW are avid movie collectors and this is one of the greatest times to be one as there are many labels out there delivering the goods. That's why we decided to take a suggestion from a listener and start shining the spotlight on the company's we love.

Our first subject, the quality control obsessed Synapse Films. Formed in 1997, Synapse have delivered so many great titles in their ten years of existence and don't look to be slowing down one bit. If you need your fix of Italian horror, outrageous Asian fare, and low-budget cinema you might not be aware of; Synapse will deliver.

As always we first talk about what we've been watching as Chris finally finishes the Police Academy series, Josh re-watches one of the greatest sex comedies of all-time, there's more stoner comedy on tap, and much more!

It's a rite of passage when you're a kid. Yes, we're talking all about summer camp. We certainly don't have great memories of going but lots of people out there do - which might explain why there's quite a few movies set at camp be them horror, comedy, or something else. We talk about our favourites and a few you might not know about.

First up we catch you up to speed on what we've watched including multiple trips to the theatre, a couple of franchise continuations, Mark Mark getting psycho, a T&A 'bait & switch', and much more!

The 70's were just the beginning! We welcome back past guest/filmmaker Vince D'Amato as a co-host for the second in our series of episodes where we'll be diving back into the past five decades of film.

The 1980's may go down as the most schizophrenic for movies but, like all decades, there's some that just don't get the attention and recognition they deserve and that's where we come in! Josh, Chris, and Vince have all chosen ten films each that they feel deserve to be seen by movie fans everywhere and it's quite an assortment of horror, action, horny teenagers, and much more - plus where else are you going to hear the sweet strains of the Ghostbusters theme?

Before getting down to business in episode 70 with our "UNDERRATED 80's" lists, we invited past guest (and friend to the podcast) Vince D'Amato to join us for a pre-episode where we talk all about what we've watched since last episode.

We have another dive into Police Academy, some indie flicks you can find on Netflix, a handful of horror movies, Josh diving back into his VHS collection and much, much more!

Universal debuted their "Dark Universe" line this past week with Tom Cruise's The Mummy and the reception was, shall we say, less than kind.

That's where we come in as we're here to tell you all about other films that contain some form of Egyptian curse that causes people to either shamble around wrapped in bandages looking for revenge, get possessed by some form of ancient goddess, or go tomb raiding. From the classics, to the lesser known, and (yes) even the Cruise film are mentioned.

First we're talking about what we watching including two trips to the theatres to see a butt-kicking female superhero and deceivingly marketed 'horror' film, Chris continuing his journey through an ensemble comedy series, two 'killer kids' movies, some heavy metal horror mayhem, another dive into Josh's over-stuffed VHS collection and much more!

Are you ready for the third dimension?

For this episode we tackle 3D. From its heyday in the 1950's, its impact on cinema going, the fact that it really was considered a "fad", and its eventual resurgence in modern times. We also give our opinions on the format and talk about our favourites that used 3D to their advantage.

First up we've got a lot of films we've watched between episodes ranging from a bunch of low-brow comedies, an alien taking on Arnold Schwarzenegger, the debut film from a stoner duo, Josh being amazed at Chris' quickness mentioning an obscure director, and much more!

Linnea. Brinke. Michelle. If those three names paired together make sense to you, then this is the episode you want to hear! Actresses who have made a career appearing in numerous horror flicks have been given the title "Scream Queen" but what exactly does that mean? We go through our definition of the term, who we think are the earliest examples of the type, the actresses we think deserve the term, and (of course) the trio we mentioned above.

First up, we talk about what we've been watching including our big screen adventures with The Evil In Us and The Descent, some questionable comedy choices we made that include guys in drag as well as Adam Sandler and some police recruits, a bunch of Dollarama choices, and much more!

For this episode we've decided to pick our favourite musicians who took a turn at acting as well. We're not talking attempted 'starmaking' vehicles like Brittney Spear's Crossroads or Mariah Carey in "Glitter" - we're talking musicians who actually made a go of stepping in front of the camera and had success doing so. It's a varied list filled with names you might (and might not) expect.

First up, we talk about what we've been watching and this time we both report back from seeing Free Fire on the big screen, wax figures come alive to kill, a movie gets "gonged", ex-NFL player Howie Long tries to go all action hero, Josh has issues with Ferris, and much more!

Jackie Kong has directed such films as The Being, Night Patrol and the cult classic Blood Diner. We got the opportunity to sit down with her before a Midnight screening of Diner to talk about her career, the longevity of her films and the struggles of being a female filmmaker in a male dominated industry. Along the way we have a few laughs, hear a few stories and get an exclusive on her ongoing Blood Diner "Insanity Tour".

After the interview be sure to stick around to hear us talk about what we've been watching and, while it might not be the best of films, there are giant robots, golf course mayhem, werewolves, and much more!
