Uncanny Cinema episodes

  • The Incident (2014)

    The dark sci-fi/fantasy film The Incident focuses on two sets of characters caught in what I'm calling a "space loop," and one which leads to some disastrous results. Our resident horror expert David was highly disturbed - a feat we're quite proud of!

    Panelists: David, Eric

    1 hr 52 min
  • The Autopsy of Jane Doe (2016)

    A county coroner and his son uncover a bevy of mysteries in The Autopsy of Jane Doe, a tight, lean horror-thriller that upends a lot of standard tropes.

    Panelists: Jack, Izzy, Jason

    1 hr 36 min
  • Super Mario Bros. (1993)

    We take a warp whistle to the famous flop Super Mario Bros., the movie that effectively killed video game adaptations for years. Recommended for fans of fungus, Blade Runner (?), and gangster chimps.

    Panelists: Steve, Fabs, Ryan

    1 hr 40 min
  • Tiptoes (2003)

    Gary Oldman stars in the role of a lifetime in Tiptoes, a movie that's become notorious for... reasons. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll probably mostly just cry.

    Panelists: Jack, Eric, Izzy

    1 hr 43 min
  • Swiss Army Man (2016)

    Swiss Army Man boasts a wholly original plot, solid acting, an excellent score, and a dead Daniel Radcliffe. It's also, as one of our panelists described it, "fartastical."

    Panelists: Jess, Jimmy, Chris

    1 hr 34 min
  • Krull (1983)

    Star Wars inspired many great films... and it also inspired Krull. Buckle up as we take on this expensive '80s fantasy misfire. Recommended for fans of clydesdales, spider ropes courses, old British men, and nonsense.

    Panelists: Jack, Steve

    1 hr 48 min
  • Nightbreed (1990)

    Clive Barker pulls out all the stops for his Gothic horror fantasy Nightbreed, a movie jam-packed with monsters, David Cronenberg's acting prowess, and lobster croissants.

    Panelists: David, Nate, Dusty

    1 hr 35 min
  • Stay Tuned (1992)

    We've got another HBO time capsule with the TV-centric Stay Tuned, a movie featuring fake shows and commercials, a Chuck Jones cartoon, and a whole host of 1992 references!

    Panelists: Eric, Matt

    1 hr 14 min
  • The Apple (1980)

    The panel beholds the musical cult film The Apple in all its confounding, excruciating glory. Trust us on this one - you can enjoy this ep without having seen the flick. In fact, you're better off.

    Panelists: Catie, Chris, Dusty

    1 hr 41 min
  • Wendy (2020)

    Wendy, the 2020 Peter Pan reworking by Beasts of the Southern Wild director Benh Zeitlin, vanished like a troublemaking shadow, all due to COVID. The panel takes a look at its beauty, ambition, missteps, and big monster fish.

    Panelists: Eric, Jack, Jess
