Z and Keith Watched A Movie

We end the month, year and season with Brian de Palma's Raising Cain (1992), a film we knew we'd enjoy (again).
We discuss the saga of Manuel's troca, this film's permanently foggy park,
tripods, und Holländische Winkel.
Plus a brief review of the month and season 5.
Thanks so much for being here!
xo,
Z & K

Here we have yet another Hollywood reimagining of a French film with questionable sexual politics that left an impression on young Z.

Welcome to Dysfunctional December!
To start, we bring The First Wives Club  (1996), or as I like to think of it: Three divorces and a funeral.
Lots of porn talk and some graphic language in this one. So come back when you're an adult, okay?

Keith here-

I had the very special privilege of joining Sven (Ep 5.38) on his podcast documenting our rich and wonderful local music scene: Champaign is Also a Band, Ep 130 of CIAB aired in July of this year in which I discussed my/Professor Ping's track that serves as our podcast's theme song.

Hope you enjoy!

And follow CIAB for many more (& more interesting) conversations with our local creators!

Nosvember continues with Ken Russell's 1988 adaption of Bram Stoker's novel. Grant, Capaldi, Donohoe, Oxenberg, mongeese, Oh My!
Plus we jib-jab about abortion, phone case demos, and the Balkanization of Z's interest in Keith's special interests.

Taking off from an almost clique 80's launchpad, Vamp (1986) lead us down several garden paths, keeping us on our toes with its tongue in its cheek. the whole time.

Oh and Grace fucking Jones dances and plays a vampire in it.
WARNING: this episode is lousy with Keiths

Nosferatu November is back, baby! Once bitten, twice as nice...
You know we love punishing ourselves with adaptations of Stephen King works, so we begin with this three hour television event. Also: admissions of partial literacy, prescription hallucinations, and will the real Babs Badcop please stand up.
