Why Does the Wilhelm Scream?

On today's show we look at the Oscar contenders "Emilia Perez," and "Conclave." We also finish our look at the filmography of Kelly Reichardt with a beautiful and funny take on the creative process (and more) in "Showing Up." Brock loses his Silly Putty, so stay tuned to future episodes to see if he finds it.

We're back, Screamers, with another banger of an episode. A couple new films with Robert Eggers' take on Nosferatu, and Sean Baker's retconning of Pretty Woman with 'Anora.' We also dip back into Kelly Reichardt's filmography with 'First Cow' a platonic love story/anti-manifest destiny/capitalist allegory.

This episode is a doozy. It's our Christmas gift exchange episode! Jason gifted three movies to Brock: The Apple, Drop Dead Gorgeous, and Three O'Clock High; and Brock gifted Jason three movies: Viva La Muerte, Space Raiders, and About Endlessness. Six films that you never expected to be grouped together. Happy Christmas, Screamers.

Happy Holidays/Merry Christmas, Screamers! This is the start of the run of our Holiday episodes. And we're kicking it off with some doozies: "Our Little Secret," "Hot Frosty," and "Carnage for Christmas." Maybe next Christmas we can get a LiLo/Lacy Chaberty buddy-cop Christmas movie...

On this episode...Brock's dog, Sam, doesn't enjoy hunting; things get political before turning to movies, which, well, things still stay kind of political. The films discussed are 'Heretic,' 'Azrael,' and Kelly Reichardt's 'Night Moves.' Tangential discussions of the Bob Dylan biopic and the Robbie Williams 'biopic' also occur.

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.
