They Made Another One?!

Content warning: discussion of transphobia, homophobia, sexual assault, and graphic violence throughout the episode.

Liam and his longtime friend, special guest Neal, both love the hell out of the movie SLEEPAWAY CAMP, which is known for it's iconic and controversial twist ending. We decided that was reason enough to decide to watch RETURN TO SLEEPAWAY CAMP, a film the same writer/director made 25 years later because people have bad ideas sometimes. This was one of our bad ideas, as far as Corey is concerned. Can he be convinced?

In these uncertain times, we've decided to seek out our roots and find familiar comforts. Of course, that means watching a forgotten sequel in a much-beloved horror movie franchise. It's never been a guarantee for the movie to blow us away, but there's always a chance, and with anxiety swirling around us now, it's a chance we wanted to take. It paid off. Without further ado, here's our take on another unsung gem, with some phenomenal performances and mind-blowing effects. It's our honour to present POLTERGEIST III.

In the midst of this awful quarantine we figured we'd take a look at a slam dunk for this show: Nicolas Cage in THE WICKER MAN. However, it seems to us like the film's reputation can be a bit much at times, and a lot of the thematic elements are... dubious. What eventually forms is a loving serenade to an underappreciated actor unfairly meme'd out of being taken seriously by most. Here's to Nicolas Cage, in the era of pandemic, perhaps when we need him most.

Looks like everything is still terrible, so we thought we'd try to offset that terribleness with a movie so pleasant and cute and sugary sweet that our mood would have to improve -- and we brought returning guest Laura along for the ride. We finally see the next installment of Lara Jean and Peter's story that... well I'm not sure we were too worried about but it's bright and colourful and -- hopefully -- the antidote to all our woes. One of us thinks so, anyway.

Look, everything is pretty miserable right now so let's cut right to the chase: THE INVISIBLE MAN is an incredible film. Take a break from the outside world and let us tell you why.

In need of a new tactic to avoid the Animal Gods, we decided to try and class the joint up a bit with the return of friend of the show Mitch to discuss FRENCH CONNECTION II, John Frankenheimer's seemingly immediately forgotten sequel to the grimy classic. Friedkin's film has a massive reputation to uphold -- iconic chases, cutting characters, thoughtful insight into the duality of law enforcement -- and with Mitch's help, we try to find out if "what if Popeye but in Marseilles" is up to the challenge.

Content Warning: discussion of suicide throughout the episode.

Seeing as our Animal Month woes appear to be slowly disappearing, we figured it might be safe to head back toward an animal movie. We were wrong. What results is one of the most divisive episodes of TMAO to date, discussing a movie that is absolutely overloaded with questionable, painfully 90s decision making. You bungee jumped off of what? The werewolves are CG? What Smash Mouth song was that? All these and more will be answered, if we survive...

PS: Support your local library -- they're safe from wizards!

We're still on the run from our Animal Month antagonists Dunston and the Electricity Wizard Clancy Brown. Despite our predicament, Liam phoned in from a safe location to chat about TOY STORY 4, a movie we had basically completely forgotten about that is stuffed top to bottom with people having various degrees of an existential crisis. As we gradually realize we're not nearly as in-touch with Disney/Pixar films as we thought, TMAO has an existential crisis itself.

The Animal Gods were displeased that we attempted to end Animal Month, and, unable to record a new episode, we must resort to The Vault -- to one of our very first recordings: ROBOCOP 3. While we attempt to appease Dunston &the Electricity Wizard Clancy Brown, hear an extended analysis of both the squandered potential of ROBOCOP 3 and whatever the hell the movie RIPD is. As a special bonus, Corey talks about split diopter shots at length without knowing what a split diopter is! (He did eventually learn.) Also, Priest Cop, Ghost Cop, Vampire Cop. It's a weird one, but that's what happens when you enter The Vault.

Well, the finale of our critically-acclaimed, much-beloved ANIMAL MONTH has finally arrived, and what better way to cap it off than with a remix of a 50s classic: LEAVE IT TO BEAVER. In the heat of the Mischief Movie moment of the 1990s, plenty of household names got their family movie makeover -- Dennis (the menace), Dunston (checks in), Beaver (left to). And to celebrate the discovery of this forgotten flick, the TMAO boys get up to some mischief too. Secrets will be revealed!
