Why Does the Wilhelm Scream?
Brock Kingsley and Jason Wiseman discuss and review movies worth watching in a way that nerd-ish types do when they sit down to chat. Passionate opinions, (bad) inside jokes, obscure references, and rants; there will be rants. Often irreverent, sometimes insightful. Plus, occasional special guests and special topics.

On today's episode, a couple of new films that question the very nature of our existence: 'Humanist Vampire Seeks Consenting Suicidal Person,' and 'It's What's Inside.' We also continue on with our look at the films of Kelly Reichardt with 'Meek's Cutoff...' an adaptation of the video game 'The Oregon Trail'? Maybe?

A couple of "scary" movies on this episode--albeit for different reasons. We dig into the Joker sequel and continue on our path down Kelly Reichardt's filmography with 'Wendy and Lucy.'
We also have a sponsorship pitch for Chappell Roan.

We've got three new films for you today, Screamers. We also talk a lot of other enjoyable nonsense. Did you know Jason doesn't really like theaters? And Brock tries to tell you he shoots film without telling you he shoots film. We also get around to talking about 'The Substance,' 'Booger,' and 'Strange Darling.'

'Speak No Evil' (Hollywood edition) and 4 Football Films
Saturday Sep 28, 2024

It's football season, so we're talking football movies. Four of them, to be exact: The Best of Times, All the Right Moves, Wildcats, and The Program. Hard hitting cinematic gridiron... We also yell about the remake of Speak No Evil.
Also, Jennifer Warnes did, in fact, sing a rendition of Leonard Cohen's Famous Blue Raincoat.

On today's show, we finish up our Araki series by looking at--or trying to look at--'White Bird in a Blizzard.' We also talk two new films: Zoe Kravitz's directorial debut, 'Blink Twice,' and a spooky golem tale, 'Oddity.' Oasis also comes up...

'This Closeness,' 'Twilight of the Warrior: Walled in,' and Gregg Araki's 'Kaboom'

We're in close quarters today, Screamers. The latest from Kit Zuahar is a delicious look at intimacy; 'Twilight of the Warrior' is a kick-ass Hong Kong action flic, and Gregg Araki's 'Kaboom' ranks higher for us than 'Smiley Face.' Hope you enjoy.
