The Spooky Linings Playlist

This week on the program, grab your Dou Dou and pour yourself a martini cause we're once again saddling up next to Daniel Craig in his Aston Martin DB5 as we discuss James Bond's ultimate swan song with 2021's No Time to Die. With a troubled production and constant delays, this one has no right to be as good as it is. And while we acknowledge that sometimes things don't necessarily work, the film still manages to resonate with just the right amount of melancholy and hope. We'll cover every nook and cranny of this movie, plus discuss jungle showers and bidets, filing your taxes as a henchman, the TSLP kimono (merch design pending), and much more. And while we hope you enjoy this episode while it's still hot, there's no need to hurry; you have all the time in the world.

No Time to Die stars Daniel Craig, Léa Seydoux, Lashana Lynch, Ralph Fiennes, Christoph Waltz, Ben Whishaw, Naomie Harris, Rami Malek, Jeffrey Wright, Ana de Armas, Billy Magnussen, Rory Kinnear, and David Dencik. Directed by Cari Fukunaga.

With the Academy Awards less than a month away, we're taking a look at one of the most interesting feckin' films of last year that has a lot to say about grief, friendship, and legacy; it's The Banshees of Inisherin from director Martin McDonagh. While we haven't discussed one of his movies since all the way back in Season 1 with In Bruges, we're back in familiar territory, and McDonagh has only gotten better as a storyteller. Grab a pint and kick your feet up with your favorite furry friend as we discuss the film, plus the troubles with tandem parking, how we - as a nation - allowed Larry the Cable Guy to happen, the acceptable cash limit for concert tickets, and so much more!

The Banshees of Inisherin stars Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson, Kerry Condon, and Barry Keoghan. Directed by Martin McDonagh.

We're finally diving into the insane world of Paul Verhoeven with a steamy erotic thriller from the '90s. Of course we're talking about none other than 1992's Basic Instinct!

So uncross your legs and get comfortable cause we're spreading this one open to talk about it all, including the movie's striking similarities to Gone Girl, the ultimate tip for douchebag interior decorating, being stuck in a room alone with Steven Spielberg, and plenty more with returning guest Ashley McGlothren!

We told you we'd be back, and we weren't lying. That's right; this week we're revisiting the one that started it all: 1984's The Terminator from director James Cameron. If you can even believe it, before he committed himself to the Pandorian dirt, Cameron was a pioneer of auteurism with his incredible ability to make a dollar out of pennies. Does this one stand the test of time? We'll find out. So get yourself a couple cans short of a six pack and put on your dark sunglasses cause we're dissecting the film and talking all about accepting fake city geography, Terminator iguanas, the '90s Doctor Strange movie, and a ton of other great topics with returning guest Josh Browning. Listen now if you want to live.

The Terminator stars Arnold Schwarzenegger, Michael Biehn, Linda Hamilton, and Paul Winfield. Directed by James Cameron.

Alex Garland is known for very cerebral, thought-provoking screenplays, and while 2022's Men are both of those things, the film (frustratingly) doesn't seem to commit to anything in particular. That being said, this one has a lot to offer; beautifully haunting atmosphere, a powerhouse performance from Jessie Buckley, and a score that's out of this world. We'll discuss all of that and more, including wine moms drunk at the movies, the horrors of staying at an Airbnb, poor TV placement on furniture, and other seemingly benign topics.

Men stars Jessie Buckley, Rory Kinnear, Paapa Essiedu, and Gayle Rankin. Directed by Alex Garland.

Hey...you wanna see Paul Rudd's pubes? Well, you've come to the right podcast! That's right, this week we're taking things back to 2003 with the abhorrent The Shape of Things from director Neil LaBute. Never heard of this one and want to watch it? Good luck; the movie has been lost to time, it seems. But don't worry, dear listener; we're here to tell you all about it, and this is one you probably don't need to see. So put on your reversible jackets and grab your Jones Cream Soda because we've got a lot to discuss, including Neil LaBute's apparent issues with women, the problem with art students, and the return of the Dorito's discussion. All of this and more with your hosts Dustin, Mallie, and Jathan, plus returning guest Ashley McGlothren!

This week on the program, we're granting the wishes for those of you who want more schlocky horror movies covered on the show. This time it's none other than 1997's Wishmaster. Candyman, Jason, and Freddy all starring in the same flick? Well...sort of. Tune in as Dustin and Nathan choose their words carefully while they discuss the movie, plus the worst name to yell when you're panicking, what defines a "wish", the struggles with becoming a GMILF, and more callbacks than you can shake a stick at. If you can't beat them, burn them, bay-beeee!

Wishmaster stars Tammy Lauren, Andrew Divoff, Kane Hodder, Tony Todd, and Robert Englund. Directed by Robert Kurtzman.

Drink it up!

There Will be Blood stars Daniel Day-Lewis, Paul Dano, Kevin J. O'Connor, Ciaran Hinds, Dillon Freasier, Sydney McCallister, David Willis, David Warshofsky, Colton Woodward, Sunday Colleen Foy, and Russell Harvard. Directed by Paul Thomas Anderson.
