Rey and the boys present their next entry of their “weird” science miniseries with the star studded (plus a lesser Baldwin) 1990 film “Flatliners”. Following Nelson’s (Kiefer Sutherland) lead/behest, four other medical students (though one is billed as a Doctor in the cast…) set out to explore near death experiences to discover if there is indeed an afterlife. Four of the five students are voluntarily murdered and revived with success until surreal visions from their personal pasts begin to terrorize their minds. That’s one hell of a pickle to be in. How are Kiefer Sutherland, Julia Roberts, Kevin Bacon, Oliver Platt, and William Baldwin going to get through  this? Forgiveness? Loss? Death? Tune in to listen to the boys work through the plot and resolution of this thriller that benefited from a sequel AND a reboot (which are likely awful). Lastly, as always, please like, subscribe, review and share your favorite (or not so favorite) Mokuest content wherever you get your podcasts!  

JOIN REY AND ROLAND AS WE GET INTO AN IN-DEPTH DISCUSSION OF THE NEW TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE! TELL US WHAT YOU THINK IN THE COMMENTS!

Welcome back, listeners, to our most recent addition to our series on weird/bizarre science films. This time around, we discuss one of the absolute best films of the 1980s–“Short Circuit”. This film follows the path of Number 5, the last in a series of prototype robots designed for the military by Nova Robotics Corporation after being struck by lightning while attached to a generator. In this accident, Number 5 develops sentience and wanders away from the facility. Enter animal lover and food truck operator Stephanie (Ally Sheedy), who meets 5 and seems to handle it pretty well–considering that she thinks it’s an alien from outer space. Nope, 5 is just your run-of-the-mill military industrial-complex Warbot. But 5 is alive, and Stephanie does everything she can to protect her new friend as Nova corp does their best to find and disassemble this “malfunctioning” robot. Newton Crosby (Steve Guttenberg) , 5’s creator, is also in the mix with his sidekick Ben as he tries to safely recover Number 5. Join Rey, Roland, and Daniel as they go through this fun movie that may have ties to the Terminator story (maaaybe). Don’t forget to smash that like button and share our stuff on social media!

We’re back, baby! After our first foray into timey-wimey adventures, we decided to keep close to that theme with a series of weird science films! Kicking off our list  is “Weird Science” where we are introduced to *checks off list* geeks/nerds/dweebs/dorks/outcasts named Wyatt (Ilan Mitchell-Smith) and Gary (Anthony Michael Hall) who face constant bullying and embarrassment from their peers. These two losers decide to create a woman with Wyatt’s “high-tech computer hacking skills” (sure buddy) and to their surprise–actually succeed. “Your mother was the lightning!” The end result is Lisa (Kelly Lebrock), an 80’s trickster-vixen with godlike powers, and she is the keymaster to levels of coolness and fear their nerdly hearts would never have dreamt possible (they kinda are pretty lame). Almost literally anything can happen. Will Lisa beat up Gary’s dad? Is Wyatt’s bro a piece of crapola on the inside as well as the outside? Does the great Robert Downey Jr. (yep he’s there) stand a snowball’s chance in hell of grooving on omega-hottie Lisa? Join Rey, Roland, and Daniel as they dive into this classic from the mind of John Hughes! Don’t forget to share and like our content on social media!

Cinekuest Presents: Groundhog Day aka Why Being a Doosh Works Out in the End

So here we present to you one of those that there super classy-classical-type comedy-almost-horror masterpieces of the early ’90s. Phil Connors (Bill Murray) is a weatherman from Pittsburg who really loves the smell of his own farts and is due to be scouted for a better station anytime now. Until then, he has to go hang out with the “hicks” at the Punxsutawney Groundhog’s Day Celebration for the fourth year in a row. Poor baby gets cranky without his juice box. After a half-assed attempt to report his boredom, “Ready in 3….2….*middle finger*…1…”, Phil ends his day stuck in town from some freak weather, and gets up the next day. He has the same coffee, the same conversations, the same celebration…the same day. And then…again. The same day. Over and over. What is a guy to do with eternity? Does the party ever end? No hangovers, no work, no bills, no problems…sounds great…right? Come chill with Daniel, Rey, and Roland as we sus out the details.

Cinekuest Presents: Hot Tub Time Machine aka Shotgun to the D*ck: A Philosophy

What happens when you live life to the fullest? It brings happiness, success, and…yeah so what happens when none of that crap works out? Enter the lives of Adam, Nick, and Lou, three (+1) absolute losers played by John Cusack, Craig Robinson, Rob Corddry (and Clark Duke as the +1). They all seem like cool people. What the hell happened? After a perfectly-timed not-a-suicide-attempt brings the buddies back together, a plan is hatched to get shit-faced at their old stomping grounds. Back in the ’80s when they were cool, when they had plans, when erectile dysfunction was just a phrase that got you called a nerd…there was…Kodiak Valley Ski Resort…the land of windbreaker jackets, bigass hair, Motley Crue…oh, and definitely not aids. Too bad the place is a shithole now. So three (+1) guys pile into a gross hot tub and somehow fail upwards into a time machine that sends them back to the best time of their lives. Or so we think. Who wouldn’t try for a do-over if you could? Join Daniel, Rey, and Roland and we try to make sense of Chevy Chase as a Time Lord of A-Holes!

Books of the Strange Present The Satanic Bible

If the legends are true, a young musician, circus performer, police scene photographer (just a few of his claims in life that are at times corroborated) turned magician had a midlife tilt and quickly became one of the world’s most impactful people of the 20th century and is proving to enjoy that honor in the 21st. Who is this person? Known by many titles, the raddest being The Black Pope, Anton Szandor Lavey, or as we like to call him, The Devil Formerly Called Howard Stanton LaVey founded The Church of Satan (not to be confused or conflated with other organizations such as The Satanic Temple) in 1966. The formation of LaVey’s church also necessitated what every good religion needs–a book espousing the tenets of the belief system. Thus, LaVey released The Satanic Bible 1969 into the world and is still in print blowing minds today–*cough*supportyourlocalbookstore*cough*. Nerds everywhere received a fascinating mash-up of philosophy, theology, and MAGIC, DUDES, MAGIC!!! This very book was used to fuel the Satanic Panic of the 1980s and 1990s by people who never read it. Find out what the news isn’t telling you about this flavor of Satanism by joining Rey, Roland, and Daniel as they misunderstand LaVeyan magic while getting most of the rest pretty right.

Regarded as “your favorite rapper’s favorite rapper”, a British citizen named Daniel Dumile once looked at the rap game and came to the conclusion that rap was becoming “what it looked like” versus “what it sounded like”. What did he do with this observation? He donned a metal mask and became the scene’s most loved supervillain and well-regarded wordsmith known as MF DOOM. That’s right, kids, Anatomy of Mixtape has finally taken the step that 40 Hands Dan has wanted since the inception of the show–an exploration of the life and music of MF DOOM that blew his mind a few years ago and continues to do so. In our first of two parts for this series, Rey and Daniel address what little we know of Dumile’s life which is shrouded in mystery purposefully. To paraphrase DOOM during an interview when asked to list five things that fans don’t know about him, he said “You don’t know anything about me”. Find out why this is the case even a year after his death by tuning in!

Cinekuest Presents: Donnie Darko aka the Pre-Regrettening Part Wtf (Frank the Furry Guru)

So what do you get when you make an indie film sandwich with an itty bitty slice of sci-fi salami? Whatever this is. Some coming-of-age timey wimey confusion aside, Donnie Darko is some bland-ass teenager farting through suburban hell. After a jet engine crashes into his room, (yes…why not) Donnie’s life gets a little…fuckin’ bananas. Don Don is soon possessed/influenced by the spirit/hallucination/projection from the future–Frank the Furry Guru, learns the world will end in 28 days, gets superpowers, oh and learns about time travel from Grandma Death. We’re blursed with iconical indie award-ling dialog such as, “Every living creature on Earth dies alone.” Such profoundery. Listen in as Rey, Roland, and Daniel try to make sense of what all the hububbery is about.
