Kicking off our month of spooky episodes, our first "Monster of the Week" is Zombies. Our first zombie movie is the eerie Danny Boyle flick 28 Days Later starring the wonderful Cillian Murphy, Naomie Harris and lots of zombies. Then we switch to one of the most unique horror-comedies of the last 20 years, Shaun of the Dead. Enjoy! 

Prison breaks make for a particularly unique style of film, yet our two films this week seem vastly different. First up we have a movie on many must-see lists, The Shawshank Redemption. Then we jump to the equally famous, or infamous, Escape From Alcatraz. This episode is a fun dig (get it?) into all of the small elements that make movies great. Enjoy!

In celebration of the legacy of a true revolutionary hero, we're focusing on all things RBG for this episode. First up we have the scripted drama, On The Basis of Sex, which focuses on Justice Ruth's earlier years in school and as a professor as she learns to challenge the status quo of the law. Then we discuss the RBG documentary, which covers almost the entire span of Ruth's life and her tireless fight for equality for all genders. Enjoy!

It's a hard move to make, but every once in a while a pro-wrestler makes the successful transition to the big screen. For our first featured wrestler-turned-actor, we discuss The Rock aka Dwayne Johnson, specifically in one of his more hilarious films of the decade, Baywatch. Then we jump to arguably the first big celebrity wrestler, Andre The Giant, and his spectacular role in the classic The Princess Bride. This was a real fun one for us so we hope you enjoy!

This week's episode celebrates the late actor Chadwick Boseman, King of Wakanda and a King in our hearts. Our first film, Marshall, centers on one of the many well known cases Thurgood Marshall worked on in his journey to becoming the First Black Supreme Court Justice. Then we discuss one of the most iconic movies of our generation, Black Panther. In our discussion of these fantastic films and Chadwick's incredible talent, we're glad we also get to explore the many heroes of black culture and the subject of equality for the black community. Wakanda forever.

The vampire film genre is huge, so we're breaking it down to those based on books for this episode. First up is Queen of the Damned, based on an Anne Rice novel and honestly, I can't even begin to sum up this movie so you'll just have to listen. Then we have the modern day vampire love story that took the "young adult" market by storm in the early 2000s with Twilight, the first in a series of films based on the Stephanie Meyers novels. Enjoy!

For this episode, we dig a little deeper a very unique genre that has one toe in traditional cinema, and one in musical theatrics. First up is possibly Whoopi Goldberg's (EGOT Queen) most widely known comedic film performance, Sister Act. Mollie and Lindsay very much disagree on this movie so that's always fun. Then we move to the stellar ensemble sensation that launched several people to household name status, Pitch Perfect. Enjoy!

It's full on, run from the blazing sun, can barely put on clothes, summertime. And what could be more summery than summer camp? This week we take a look at two classic summer camp movies. First up is Wet Hot American Summer, a fantastic cult satire starring an alarming number of now very famous actors. Next we have Heavyweights, one of those classic 90's movies about friendship and adolescence that perhaps didn't age all that well, but carries a special nostalgia with it. Enjoy and stay cool!

We love a good biopic, and considering the many conversations being had these days that echo so much of the 1960's Civil Rights Movement, we thought it would be fitting to do a deep dive into to of the most iconic Black leaders from that era. First we have Spike Lee's Malcolm X, an epic film giving us so much insight into a complicated man often vilified in history books. Then we jump to Ava DuVernay's Selma, a movie that on it's surface depicts just a single civil rights march, but truly gives a broader, painfully accurate portrayal of America at one of it's lowest moments.  

As we continue to celebrate Pride Month, we decided to look back at a couple of noteworthy additions to queer cinema. First we have the screen adaptation of John Cameron Mitchell's poetic multimedia musical about the turbulent life of an emigrant transgender punk rocker. Then we discuss the well-known big production Philadelphia, starring Denzel Washington and Tom Hanks as they depict one man's fight for his rights in a world of homophobia and HIV/AIDS stigma. Happy Pride. We hope you enjoy.
