Caleb and Angelo are joined this week by special guest Drew Campbell (@vlasinda_stormdrain) to discuss David Lynch's 1986 film, Blue Velvet! But first we learn about Vlad's favorite movie snacks before diving into Last Four to discuss what we've been watching...

We crush on Lynch for a bit before exploring the earie underworld of Blue Velvet. We explore Lumbertown, The Slow Club, and brainstorm on meanings and interpretations of the dreamy flick. Plus, possible connections to Twin Peaks and other Lynch films. We talk to the Lynch regulars, and as always, our read of the films themes and hidden secrets.

All this and more on this week's Log It!

Caleb, Andy start things off by giving our thoughts on the age of 2 ½ hour plus blockbusters. Then to last four, then to Polite Society.

Andy tells us why Polite Society was his pick. We discuss the plot and our favorite moments, from burgers in wedding gowns to front double back kicks. Why we appreciated the characters and writing in the movie. We dive into the eclectic list of movies that inspired the film. Andy tells us his favorite scene of the movie (hint: there’s food in it). To wrap it up, Andy recaps his halloween movie season and a haunting movie experience.

Angelo joins us this week, and we jump straight into last four and discuss some recent watches before we dive into Eyes Wide Shut. 

We do our best to recap the movie and explore its masked themes and mysteries. We dive into the films conspiracy-riddled making, Cruise and Kidman's experience working with Kubrick, and discuss the film’s connection to its Freudian source material - the short-story Traumnovelle - and alternate casting for early versions of the film, and the film’s connection to Spielberg and A.I.

Then we dive into last four and hear what we've been watching and learn a little more about Turbo Sleepover...

Finally, we dig into each and every Friday the 13th movie, from Camp Crystal Lake 1980 to outer space 2454. We dive into the rushed origin of the franchise, the lore of Jason, the making of the film, and so much more. We cover all 12 films and talk best kills, best lines, and rank the films and compare.

This week on Log It! We kick things off talking horror classic, recommendations and classics we still need to see. Ian takes a potshot at the Dodgers. We tease a baseball podcast? Baseball movie episiode? Last four we discuss the latest movies we’ve been watching.

Finally, The Exorcist. Ian's first time seeing it, he tells us his thoughts, Angelo tells us why it's one of his favorites. Angelo also tells us more about the making of the film, about Linda Blair's experience, working with Friedkin as a director, and much more. We also dig into the film's themes, and try to make sense of some of its enduring mysteries.

Caleb explains why Beetlejuice never clicked for him. Sammy Davis Jr for Beetlejuice? The original, darker script. Michael Keaton’s standup background. We veer into pumpkin-purse girls, Disneyland, New Wave, and whether or not aliens are real… We discuss some differences from the original script vs the final movie.

(skip to 10:15 for Maximum Overdrive talk)

A surprise twist makes this the scariest episode of Log It! yet. We discuss the 1986 drug-induced coma dream from Stephen King, Maximum Overdrive. Before that, Last Four, then, a trip down memory lane to discuss some of the scary movies that imprinted on us in our youth. 

Then we floor it for Maximum Overdrive, diving into King’s borderline cursed experience on the film, his state of mind, his experience working with producer Dino De Laurentis, and King’s obsession with The Shining and nuclear bombs in space. ACDC did the score, and we like that.

We explore the film’s odd connections to Blue Velvet, Bruce Springsteen, and The Simpsons.

Plus who lost an eye during production? Who did King really want to play the lead? (Sorry Emilio!)

Ian asks us about our airplane cinema history. Last four who’s talking. We call out Balto and give Togo the credit deserved. Caleb tells us his shortcuts to a guaranteed good time movie watch.

We discuss the differences between the Japanese and English dubs of Godzilla. We discuss our (Americanized) history with Godzilla, and the personal attacks we felt from Shin Godzilla. We disagree about the music of the film and how it was used. We talk about the sequel and what we think will happen. Finally, we have our most suspenseful next week’s movie choice in LI-AMP history - you won’t wanna miss it.

Ian checks in and let’s us know what he’s been watching.

Ian, Angelo and Caleb open things by discussing franchises they have not interest int. We do last four and Angelo tells us about his in theater experience - a labor day slasher marathon at the New Bev. We do a quick stop to talk Mission Impossible, and Ian shares some bonus covid watches.

Angelo and Caleb stick around to discuss Angelo’s pick, Tokyo Drift. We discuss Justin Lin’s trojan horse in the film. And we spend a lot of time talking about how great Han is in this. Also, Lucas Black was on X-Files. We Do our best to map the entire F&F Franchise. Plus, the fourth wall break that broke Caleb.

LA is burning! Anglelo and Caleb unite to discuss 2008's Speed Racer and how it's aged 15 years later. But first we run through last 4, Caleb talks about his first impressions of Friday the 13th 1, 2, and 3, and Angelo reminisces about Jurassic Park 3D in theaters recently.

Then we do Speed Racer. What would a sequel look like?

What do M. Knight and the Wachowski’s have to do with eachother? We laugh about actor’s reactions to early greenscreen movies. Also, get to the true-true o’ Cloud Atlas, Jupiter Ascending, and try to make sense of the Wachowski's innovative career.
