Are we turning in a William Powell podcast? No complaints here!

Today we’re diving into Yojimbo. This is pretty much the perfect example of the podcast. Having your buddy experience a movie and genre that you adore.

In this episode, we dive into 1979’s nuclear-era thriller The China Syndrome, discussing its slow-burn tension, terrible (limited) music, and the studliness of Mr. Lemmon + Brimley.

And stick around after the main discussion for a full spoiler review of The Bone Temple. We continue to profess our love of this franchise.

A shadowy dive into The Killers (1946), where fate feels fixed, motives stay murky, and a man waits quietly for death. We unpack the film’s fatalism, fractured storytelling, and why this lean noir still hits like a punch in the dark.

This may be our most referenced film on the show (aside from the episode minus 1 It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World). What a lovely Christmas/new years film this is. Truly timeless.

Given how scary this film is, you'd think it was our Halloween episode.

Stop! Hammer Time!

Today we’re taking on The Curse of Frankenstein. In a sea of lousy Frankenstein and Frankenstein-like films, this is really stands the test of time.

A forgotten classic. There, I said it!

Death Wish (1974) – Charles Bronson grows a terrible mustache, receives a gun, and basically invents the vigilante dad genre. It’s grimy, it’s dated, and yet somehow it still hits way too close to home.

We're hanging out in the 1980s again with some fun fluff.
