The 1981 movie DRAGONSLAYER may be little remembered today, but it contains lots of magic and adventure. And more gore than you might expect from a Disney production. And surprising explosions.

A lot of spoilers in this episode, so please beware.

Back in the 1960s, Gerry and Sylvia Anderson imagined the 2060s as a world of engineering marvels, space exploration, and smooth, swinging style. And they imagined an organization called International Rescue to help keep that world safe. This was the Tracy family and their amazing machines, the Thunderbirds.

English bikers, weird cults, standing stones, the undead, and very questionable folk music come together in the strangely compelling 1973 movie Psychomania.

Happy Halloween, everyone!

Please note: The movie discussed in this episode of the IMMP Podcast deals with the subject of suicide, in a horror fantasy context. If you might find this subject upsetting, please consider listening to a different episode or to another fine podcast.

What if Sherlock Holmes and John Watson had met when they were still in school, long before Watson was a combat surgeon and Holmes was a cocaine addict? And what if Steven Spielberg, Barry Levinson, Chris Columbus and Henry Winkler got together to make a movie about it? The surprising and often neglected Young Sherlock Holmes may be the most 80s thing ever.

In their almost-sort-of sequel to UFO, Sylvia and Gerry Anderson show us the glory of space exploration: a moon base that serves as a way station and a nuclear waste dump. But if that’s not sufficiently glamorous, hold on: before long the moon is blasted out of orbit to drift among the stars, wandering into a new adventure each week. This is SPACE: 1999.

Sometimes after watching a show for the IMMP, Ian and Matthew are happy to leave it behind. But sometimes , they keep watching. For this episode of the podcast they return for another look at two favorites: Peter Falk in COLUMBO, and Patrick Macnee as John Steed in THE AVENGERS

Religious themes explored through a combination of psychedelic vegetation and innovative, discursive storytelling style. No, Ian and Matthew didn’t watch Altered States again. For this Millennial Strikes Back episode, they watched Jonah, a VeggieTales Movie. But they watched it with the strange and incredibly funny DVD commentary track featuring the characters Larry the Cucumber and Mr. Lunt, everyone's favorite decorative gourd. The movie may be for kids, but this commentary track is not.
