So, as you might expect, we e…

Move #2 of Keith's bday selection is one that has haunted him since he was one of the extremely few people to view it in a cinema at the time: The End of Violence (1997).
Starring Bill Pullman, Gabrie…

We open Keith's birth month-o-movies with Brian de Palma's rock n roll Faust with a soupçon of Leroux/Lubin and a heaping scoop of Paul Williams.
An excess of excess, an explosion of exploitation, a …

The film Keith discovers is a bigger "root" then previously acknowledged and is then subsequently beset upon by a ~mid~ life crisis.

Extremely controversial in it's day (for legitimate reasons), somewhat middling today; this week we bring you the movie that began William "Hurricane Billy" Friedkin's hate affair with Al Pacino, Cru…

So you can count on di…

This week we bring you a charming story of two old school friends reconnecting later in life after one of them has transitioned. Along the way there are run-ins with law enforcement, problematic fa…

The "priest" they called him. and they were correct. He was a priest.
And spoiler: He's gay.

Here we are, ramming head first into Z's birthmonth selections with The Cell (2000).
Bucking our recent trend, we go on at length about this one because we liked it.
Be warned though; we've given it a…

At long last, dear listeners, we bring you a film made famous by Paul Rudd.
A movie bank-rolled by Golden State Foods and Coke-a-Cola and yet looks worse than many a indie project.
Special guest Rand…

CW for the is ep
We talk about Jeffery Jones' child pornography charges, Quiet on Set (2024), and Jared from Subway: Catching a Monster (2023).

What happens when Ralph Bakshi mixes live action with animation in a post Roger Rabbit universe?
We examine the result: Cool World (1992). Too much toon, too little cohesion, and a nice soundtrack.

Starting off a month of movies that we wonder why they got made or think they probably shouldn't have, we bring you Blame in on Rio (1984).

Z almost fell asleep, Keith was inspired by the soundtrack, we both were confused.

Join us and these surprisingly unhorny teens for a not very gorey weekend in the woods with a lot of beer, a lot of…
