  • Toni Erdmann + The Wizard of Gore + Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed - Eclectica #101

    Run Gunners and Misused Colons

    After the party of episode 100 comes the hangover as Ryan, Tim, Aidan and Graham head to Room 101 for the worst cinema has to offer.

    From misbegotten video game adaptations (are there any other kind?), with "Hitman" and dubious documentaries with "Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed", to a trip to see the wizard, the not-so-wonderful "The Wizard of Gore".

    If you're one of those strange people who insist on only watching films that are good then we also have our Feature Presentation - Maren Ade's acclaimed German comedy "Toni Erdmann".

  • 2016 in Review - Eclectica #96
    It's that time of the year again, that's right, it's time for us to consider all the films that we have seen in 2016 and pit them against one another in gladiatorial combat. Join us for the winners, losers and feasts aplenty. Or, to put it another way, join us for our review of 2016 where we look at the great films that make up our top 10's, pick out some choice cuts from the year in home video and rant about the worst of the worst.

    BIFAs, Barbies and Brexit

    This week's episode marks the beginning of yet another awards season. When will they ever end? Elsewhere on the show, we looked at Steve Martin's Roxanne, skateboarding doc Lords of Dogtown, Tom Hank's latest attempt at being a real human boy in Sully and the Adam West film, Batman: Return of the Caped Crusaders.

  • United Kingdom + The Wailing + Allied + The Good, The Bad, The Weird - Eclectica #94
    Opening a can of Kevin Smith

    We have our 2nd ever photo-negative show, featuring loads of new releases from all over the world. The choice cuts where Kurosawa's Creepy, Botswanan drama United Kingdom, Robert Zemeckis's Allied and the hysteria-laden Korean horror, The Wailing. Sticking with South Korea, Kim Jee-Woon was the target of this week's directors lottery - and with that, we looked at his gonzo western, The Good, The Bad, The Weird.

  • Assault on Precinct 13 + 3-Iron + Weiner - Eclectica #93

    High Voltage: Carlos Danger

    The weather was as bad as Carlos Danger this week, as such the audio quality is fairly inconsistent. This week saw the return of the director's lottery, before that though we looked at the politically hilarious documentary Weiner, Early John Carpenter classic Assault on Precinct 13 before giving into peer pressure with Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find them. Kim Ki-Duk was the director of choice and for our feature presentation we looked at 3-Iron.

    Understanding Forest Whitaker

    We have a new voice on the show this week and another ill one just to balance it out. Films featured where Voice without a Shadow, Michael Madsen double bill(not that one)Into Eternity and the Visit, Twilight's Last Gleaming and surreal anime Saint Young Men. We should do more anime. Our feature presentation is Denis Villeneuve's thoughtful science fiction - Arrival.
