So It's Come to This: A Movie Podcast

This week, we're working in the lab with the 1962 cult classic "Hand of Death." We talk about actor John Agar, the movie's mad scientist monster and its clever commentary on racism. Listen now.

This week, we are remembering Olivia Hussey with a look at her iconic performance as Norma Bates in 1990's "Psycho IV: The Beginning." We get into the Showtime sequel's mix of goofy and dramatic moments and why we've been watching so many movies with mother issues lately.

We're starting the new year with one of the oldest stories in cinema history, "Nosferatu." We talk about seeing Robert Eggers' new vision of the classic horror tale in a packed theater and how it compares to other versions. Listen now.

It's Christmas Eve and we're waiting for Santa to show up by watching the iconic 1984 slasher "Silent Night, Deadly Night." We talk about the movie's traumatic storyline, bloody kills, and why it got a big backlash. Listen now.

We're getting into the holidays this week with a new-to-us Christmas classic, 2000's "Reindeer Games." We talk about the movie's cool cast, never-ending twists and dedication to its bit. Listen now.

It's Friday the 13th, again, and we're keeping up with the series by watching 1984's "Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter." We talk about the movie's kills, Corey Feldman's masks, Crispin Glover's dancing and if this is the best of the 12-film franchise or if it's overrated. Listen now.

This week's podcast gets theological over the new A24 hit "Heretic." We talk about Hugh Grant's deadly charm, the movie's labyrinth of mystery, the weirdest things we did in the name of religion, and of course, Jar Jar Binks. Listen now.

We are wrapping up Ti West's X film series with "MaXXXine," and it may be our favorite of the trilogy. We talk about how much Mia Goth rules, West's previous movies "X" and "Pearl," and why this throwback mix of '80s Hollywood sleaze, slashers and Giallo had us rooting for Maxine. Listen now.

We're cutting the brakes and watching a previously unknown (to us) thriller from 1994, "Mother's Boys." We talk about how great Jamie Lee Curtis is in a villain role and the movie's mix of art and trash. Listen now.

This week, we're carrying on with 1994's "The Crow." We talk about Brandon Lee's iconic performance, remember Tony Todd, marvel at the movie's visuals and soundtrack, and talk about VHS trailers. Listen now.
