Dracula (1992)

It is the 30th Anniversary of Francis Ford Coppola's horror film Dracula. As we revisit this unique film Jeremy and Devin consider if it is a classic and why it is special when compared to other films in the genre.

Be Kind, Rewind: It’s the End of the World as We Know It

Here is our second Be Kind, Rewind episode and it was a blast to record. One of our very own Patrons called in and asked a wonderful question as did a very mysterious caller pretending to be Tobe Hooper.

On this episode we talk foreign films of the 80s, influential post-apocalyptic films, and what the best film of 1982 is. So come along and let's rewind.

It is so hard to believe that it is the 40th anniversary of Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior. On this episode Devin and Jeremy try and figure out why this film is so special and what makes this collection of characters some of the most influential and memorable characters of the 1980s.

Unforgiven (1992)

Are you ready to get back in the saddle and be a killer again, rope your best friend into helping you, get really sick, get really drunk, lose your best friend, and exact a terrible vengeance on those that did it?

That's right we are revisiting the classic Western film by Clint Eastwood, Unforgiven (1992). Hard to believe it is the 30th anniversary of the film and what is even more surprising is how well the film holds up, especially in light of the celebrity culture we live in today. So come along and saddle up and let's get a dose of Clint in this dark and powerful story.

Prey (2022)

This is an episode that is for our supporters on Patreon. We thought we would share with all of you as a thank you for listening. Enjoy!

Are you ready to hunt a Mountain Lion (in a tree), fight against gender stereotypes, use a tomahawk in one of the coolest ways EVER, be hunted by an alien, and overcome being the prey by becoming the predator?

Devin and Jeremy decided to sit down and discuss the Predator prequel, Prey (airing on Hulu). Where does Prey rank in among the Predator films? Is Prey one of the better action/adventure movies of the last 10 years? Should more Predator films be made, or should this be the last?

Come along as we take a look at this action hit!
