The Suspense is Killing Us

We cover three Alec Baldwin thrillers in depth, tell some jokes, do some Baldwin impressions and are never sick at sea. You ask us if we have a God complex? Let me tell you something: WE ARE GOD.

MALICE (1993, Harold Becker)

THE JUROR (1996, Brian Gibson)

HEAVEN'S PRISONERS (1996, Phil Joanou)

The boys discuss three "edgy" independent crime movies that were basically targeted directly at them as curse-word loving movie nerd teens in the 90's.

ROMEO IS BLEEDING (1993, Peter Medak)

KILLING ZOE (1993, Roger Avary)

THE USUAL SUSPECTS (1995, Bryan Singer)

We take a dark and twisted look inside the dark and twisted minds of some of cinema's most second rate psychopaths!

KALIFORNIA (1993, Dominic Sena)

COPYCAT (1995, Jon Ameil)

PRIMAL FEAR (1996, The Hoblit)

To celebrate our 20th episode (!) we pay tribute to our Patron Saint of Cinematic Sleaze, Michael Douglas. Sleaze, for lack of a better word, is good.

DISCLOSURE (1994, Barry Levinson)

A PERFECT MURDER (1998, Andrew Davis)

DON'T SAY A WORD (2001, Gary Fleder)

We discuss three movies that were clearly inspired by Chinatown. They all take place in mid-20th century LA, deal with morally ambiguous men exploring vast, evil conspiracies, and feature classic cartoon characters. Well, only one has cartoons.

WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT (1988, Robert Zemeckis)

DEVIL IN A BLUE DRESS (1995, Carl Franklin)

MULHOLLAND FALLS (1996, Lee Tamahori)

We've had ENOUGH with movies that aren't about husbands who DECEIVED their brides into not realizing they were SLEEPING WITH THE ENEMY. So we discuss a handful of movies about that particular subject matter.

SLEEPING WITH THE ENEMY (1991, Joseph Ruben)

DECEIVED (1991, Damian Harris)

ENOUGH (2002, Michael Apted)

The fabulous Amie Simon joins the gang for a JUST AS LONG AS IT SHOULD BE discussion of the early provincial noirs of John Dahl.

KILL ME AGAIN (1989)

RED ROCK WEST (1993)

THE LAST SEDUCTION (1994)

The boys examine three movies beginning with the prefix "UN" and manage to score a 66.6% on the Diane Lane meter!

UNFORGETTABLE (John Dahl, 1996)

UNFAITHFUL (Adrian Lyne, 2002)

UNTRACEABLE (Gregory Hoblit, 2008)

We come out to the coast and have a few laughs discussing the work of the often lazy and always smirking Sir Bruce Willis.

STRIKING DISTANCE (1993, Rowdy Herrington)

COLOR OF NIGHT (1994, Dick Rush)

PERFECT STRANGER (2007, James Foley)

The peculiar charms of MICHAEL KEATON are examined in this whirlwind episode. Specifically in the 1990's, when he was arguably at the peak of his charming peculiarity.

PACIFIC HEIGHTS (1990, John Schlesinger)

ONE GOOD COP (1991, Heywood Gould)

DESPERTE MEASURES (1998, Barbet Schroeder)
