This week we went back to 1982 for Bobs pick Poltergeist. This film manages to pull off the near impossible feat of a PG family horror film that scares children and adults to this day. Written by Steven Spielberg, Michael Grais and Mark Victor and directed by Tobe Hooper (a credit that seems to be debated to this date) The movie is brought to life with the acting talents of Jobeth Williams as Diane Freeling, Craig T. Nelson as father Steven Freeling accompanied by the amazing child actors Dominique Dunne as Dana, Oliver Robbins as Robbie and the adorable Heather O'Rourke as Carol Anne. The Freelings' start noticing strange events in their home. It quickly becomes clear there is a haunting but where at first the spirits appear friendly and  mischievous things soon turn more sinister until the youngest of the freelings is abducted by the spirits causing the Freelings to enlist the aid of Dr Lesh played by Beatrice Straight and psychic Tangina lovingly portrayed by Zelda Rubenstein.Working with a modest budget of under 11 million this film managed to slay the competition at the box offices when it hit theaters on June, 4th 1982 bringing in a whopping 121.7 million dollars.Movies Against Time is a bi-weekly film retrospective podcast hosted by married couple Sylvia and Dustin along with long time friend Bob.

Clint Eastwood, John Malkovich and Renee Russo tear up the screen in this Wolfgang Petersen thriller about Mitch Leary's assassination attempt against the president with one man standing in his way Agent Frank Horrigan. Although the romantic storyline between Eastwood and Russo feels forced and mismatched they still put out an academy award nominated performance along with John Malkovich putting on an acting clinic as the would be assassin.Subscribe / Listen Here - https://link.chtbl.com/matEmail: [email protected] Feed: https://moviesagainsttime.podomatic.com/rss2.xmlWebsite: https://moviesagainsttime.podomatic.com/Insta: moviesagainstTwitter: @moviesagainst

This week Sylvia picked Wes Craven's classic horror game changer A Nightmare On Elm Street. This film undoubtedly changed the way we looked at horror as a genre. Robert Englunds Freddy Kreuger has become synonomus  with nightmare and terror. This movie started out as another Halloween clone and quickly became it's own universe cut away from the slasher genre. While the acting is mid range to low there were some  standouts including Englunds performance, John Saxxons down to earth and real work as Nancy's father. This is also Johnny Depp's first movie role.  We give this film a 9 out of 10 for it's ability to stand out against time as one of the greatest horror films of all time.https://link.chtbl.com/mathttps://moviesagainsttime.podomatic.com/https://heliumradio.com/podcastfilter/movies-against-time/Also reach out to us here:[email protected]: moviesagainstTwitter: @moviesagainst

Bob's pick this week is Robin Williams bizare musical depicting the iconic sailor man himself. This movie hows a lot going wrong for it but inexplicably turns out to be a whole lot of fun. Editors note: If your new to our show then don't listen to this one first. We had a ton of recording issues, we didn't even get to start recording until midnight. Dustin is fighting a cold and everyone is generally exhausted. Still turned out pretty good for what it was.

For our 50th episode we broke our self imposed ban on sequels. Rocky 2 Is the obvious choice for us as it retains most of the heart of the first film but with a bigger budget and directed by Sly himself. From a 1 million dollar budget to a 7 million dollar budget is a big jump but in hollyweird it's still not a lot for a blockbuster. Sylvester Stallone, Carl Weathers, Talia Shire, Burgess Meredith, and burt young all return to reprise their oscar winning roles in this amazing story of what happens after the biggest moment of Rocky's life.Subscribe / Listen Here - https://link.chtbl.com/matEmail: [email protected] Feed: https://moviesagainsttime.podomatic.com/rss2.xmlWebsite: https://moviesagainsttime.podomatic.com/Insta: moviesagainstTwitter: @moviesagainst
