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.

It's a real doozy of an episode, Screamers. We talk two (well, three) new films: 'The First Omen' (and Immaculate), and Alex Garland's 'Civil War.' We also have a conversation with Tony Nguyen of Spacy Micro Cinema And we tackle two more from Ralph Bakshi with our thoughts on 'Fire and Ice,' and 'Hey Good Lookin.'
On May 22nd, 7:00pm we're holding a live recording of our "official" 50th episode here in Fort Worth at WineHaus. We'd love to see you there.
