Episode 87: Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978)


Break out the coffee and grab those energy drinks because we've got to stay awake to watch Philip Kaufman's unnerving 1978 remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers. We discuss how the pod people serve as an adaptable metaphor for different social fears, soak in the atmosphere of paranoia created by Kaufman and his collaborators, and freak out over some inappropriate banjo music. Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and one fancy cutting board countertop.

Episode 42: The Magnificent Seven (1960)


Tim and Corinne are only two, but they podcast like two-hundred as they head south of the border to watch The Magnificent Seven from 1960. They compare this Americanized remake of Kurosawa's Seven Samurai to its Japanese source material, cringe at some of the "white savior" aspects of the story, and revel in the coolness of Yul Brynner and Steve McQueen. Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and a questionable Cajun accent.

Episode 34: The Fly (1986)


Corinne, Rosie, and Tim conduct a highly unscientific experiment by discussing David Cronenberg's gooey remake of The Fly from 1986. When not averting our eyes from the film's grotesque visuals, we discuss Jeff Goldblum's quirky and awkward performance as Seth Brundle, the disturbingly visceral make-up effects, and the film's surprisingly nonjudgmental stance on reproductive rights. Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and acidic regurgitation.

Movie In-Jokes: Mighty Joe Young (1998)

One of the fun games when watching movies is to spot references, secret messages and gags that filmmakers, film crews and actors can slip into movies to pay tribute to films they love, have a bit of fun with their previous work, or give the cinematic equivalent of a shout-out. Here's a spotter's guide to these inside jokes.

This time, a beautiful woman in an elegant gown inspires a bit of deja vu in Ron Underwood's 1998 remake of the monster classic Mighty Joe Young.
