Duck Duck Beowulf



This week is all about the Kurosawa remakes! First we spent time in the sorta family friendly world of A Bug's Life, Pixar's attempt at Seven Samurai. We take a strange trip through a deeply political dissent Kazakhstan take on Seven Samurai, Dikiy Vostock (aka The Wild East). At long last we take a good hard look at David Carradine in Dune Warriors, an ultra cheap version of Seven Samurai. Finally it's Antonio Banderas stretching his acting chops by playing a Middle Eastern poet banished to the Vikings in The 13th Warrior, a take on Beowulf. Yeah, one of these things is not like the others.
All that and Dave is broken, Tyler shocks everyone, Kevin gushes, and Craig joins a monastery somewhere in the Himalayas.
Join us, won't we?

Kolchak Goes to the Movies

This week we help a dogged newsman hunt down a vampire on the early 70s Vegas Strip with Kolchak The Night Stalker. Then we supervise a field trip to the cinema for a group of less than serious third string superkids as Teen Titans Go! To the Movies
Also Craig returns to break Dave, Kevin reveals a shocking truth about his home life, and Tyler is indefatigable.

V for Veiny



   This week we take apart two deeply political films. First up, all is not idyllic in Jolly Olde England as a masked man plots blowing up Parliament but still finds time for the odd side murder and total reprogramming of a news station employee. Then a man is mutilated by a racist cop and medically experimented on in prison for three years. When he gets out a unique kind of revenge will be unleashed on those who wronged him but he will still find time for a new love and some light stalking of his ex.
   Join us for V for Vendetta and Welcome Home Brother Charles, won't we? Also Tyler waxes poetically about certain special performer, Kevin realizes exactly what sin he committed in a past life to deserve these things, Craig is stuck in UPS center somewhere in Ohio, and Dave rants like his life depended on it... which it does.

Victorian Fruit



This week we reach deep into Tyler's brain and pull out his worst nightmare with another trip to the world dominating plans of Professor Gangrene and Return of the Killer Tomatoes. Then we poorly make amends by exploiting his interest in Jack the Ripper with Nicholas Meyer's 1979 time travel serial killer romp Time After Time.

Loving Lions Lovers Lyin's



Trampolines, nudity, ziplines, drugs, violent action, sexy action, Turkish Exploitation trash, French Exploitation art. This week we watch legendary star of Turkish cinema, Cüneyt Arkin, star in a film that asks "What happens if Tarzan was raised by lions during the first Crusade?"! The answer is Lion Man. Then we settle in for a meditation on emotion and passion. Where do you turn for a look at how it feels to be the most vapid bastard in the Universe having a nice long opium driven gaze at your own navel while crying and masturbating in a tub to memories of the one who got away. Apparently, all we need is Gaspar Noé's Love

Sometimes it's a carpet rolled killer, sometimes it's man cream, but RotP always brings tears to someone's eyes. Join us, won't we?
