Movieing On - Movies from 1999 or Earlier episodes

  • Movieing On #169: Elvira: Mistress of the Dark
    Andrew’s away this week, so Jon steps in to take his place in what might be the most buxom episode of Movieing On ever to be recorded. Unfortunately, however, it’s another one of those days where everybody just likes the movie enough for there to be a dearth of discussion to be had about it – it’s hard to find anything to discuss when everybody just genuinely likes the movie in question.
    Still, we all had a good time, and that’s what counts; right?

    * Elvira: Mistress of the Dark (1988) (imdb.com)
    When her great aunt dies, famous horror hostess Elvira heads for the uptight New England town Falwell to claim her inheritance of a haunted house, a witch’s cookbook and a punk rock poodle. But once the stuffy locals get an eyeful of the scream queen’s ample assets, all hell busts out and breaks loose. Can the Madonna of the Macabre find love with a studly cinema owner, avoid her creepy great uncle, titillate the town’s teens and become a Las Vegas dance sensation – all without being burned alive at the stake?

  • Movieing On #168: Koyaanisqatsi
    This week, we sit down to watch the 90 minute Philip Glass music video also known as Koyaanisqatsi – a collection of expertly photographed phenomena with no conventional plot. The footage focuses on nature, humanity and the relationship between them.

  • Movieing On #167: The Faculty
    The gang’s back together, and they suspect something not right in the world. People just aren’t acting the way they’re supposed to be acting …

  • Movieing On #166: Heavenly Creatures
    This week, Rachel picks a movie and makes herself unavailable when we start recording the episode about the movie. Andrew, Breki and Toerag suspect this might be her payback for having forced her to watch all the violent, hateful, surprisingly often Nazi-themed movies we’ve seen of late.

    Rachel and Andrew couldn’t make it today, so Toerag and Breki sat down to talk about the best movie in the history of forever and ever.

  • Movieing On #163: Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid
    It’s a film noir parody – and most of us really didn’t like it. At all.

  • Movieing On #162: Starship Troopers
    Another week, another movie from 1999 or earlier! This time around, the gang covers the movie very loosely based on the Heinlein book of the same name. It’s not a very good movie, but there are plenty of things that can be said about it anyway.

  • Movieing On #161: Cabaret
    It’s a movie about a female club entertainer in Weimar Republic era Berlin who romances two men while the Nazi Party rises to power around them. One would think the discussion of said movie would be fairly straight forward and everybody would agree with each other. Instead, what we got was a heated debate about … well, listen to the episode and find out for yourself!

  • Movieing On #160: The Thing
    It’s that time of the week again, and – barring some technical issues that kept Andrew from joining the show until a few minutes in – three people sit down and talk about the John Carpenter classic; The Thing.
