In 2001, writer/director Richard Kelly's genre-busting rookie feature DONNIE DARKO crashed and burned at the box office. But it almost immediately rose from the ashes to become one of the first cult hits of the 21st century...and it took the music of '80s band Tears for Fears along for the ride.Host Rico Gagliano tells this twisty tale with the help of Kelly, star Jena Malone (THE HUNGER GAMES), and the film's composer Michael Andrews—whose stripped-down cover of Tears's "Mad World" became maybe the most unlikely smash hit in UK history. To celebrate our new season of the podcast, we're partnering with the American Cinematheque to present a double feature of DONNIE DARKO and THE EVIL DEAD on Sunday April 9th at Santa Monica's Aero Theatre. Rico Gagliano and Richard Kelly will attend for an in-person discussion. For more details, check out the American Cinematheque's website here.The third season of the MUBI Podcast, titled “Needle on the Record,” dives into the unifying power of movie music and tells the stories behind some of cinema's most renowned “needle drops”—moments where filmmakers deployed pre-existing music instead of an original score.

Just in time for the holidays, I ramble about my visit last October to the 12th Annual Dusk-to-Dawn Horrorthon at the Aero Theatre, where we watched: An American Werewolf in London; Popcorn; The Tingler; Hack-O-Lantern; Shocker; Brainscan; and Death Bed: The Bed that Eats. At this rate, I'll be posting episodes about Christmas movies by Easter. Anyway, enjoy listening to Fuckhead refer to Death Bed writer/director George Barry as "John Barry", even though he had his name written in front of him.Click here for the written version of these ramblings on my blog.
