Ravenous is a 1999 horror Western cannibal film starring Guy Pearce, Robert Carlyle, Jeffrey Jones and David Arquette. The film, which is set in 1840s California, was directed by Antonia Bird and filmed in Europe. It was not a box office success and failed to recoup much of its $12 million budget. However, despite initial reception being mixed when released, it has since garnered a reputation as a cult film.

This week, Bri and Leah do something a little different: we're talking about cannibals! But these cannibals could definitely pass as vampires if they wanted to. We're looking at Ravenous (1999, dir. Antonia Bird) and Bones and All (2022, dir. Luca Guadagnino). While these films might seem like a weird double feature... hear us out!The articles Leah promises at the end of the episode:David Ehrlich for Rolling Stone on why Ravenous is the greatest cannibal Western ever made: https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-news/to-serve-man-why-ravenous-is-the-greatest-cannibal-western-ever-43674/Walter Chaw on Ravenous for Decider (he sees the Bones and All connection, too!): https://decider.com/2022/09/20/walter-chaw-ravenous/And, maybe my favorite (which compares Ravenous and Hannibal), from Samantha McLaren for Gayly Dreadful: https://www.gaylydreadful.com/blog/pride-2021-its-lonely-being-a-cannibal-hungry-homoerotic-friendship-in-ravenous-and-hannibalSupport the showSound effects credits: “Creaking door.wav” by visualasylum of Freesound.org (https://freesound.org/s/322377/) "Door, Wooden, Close, A (H1).wav" by InspectorJ (www.jshaw.co.uk) of Freesound.org (https://freesound.org/s/411791/)
1999's 180th-highest grossing film, Antonia Bird's Ravenous never finished higher than 18th at the domestic box office, earning just over 2 millions dollars on a 12 million dollar budget. And it was never released theatrically outside North America. Ravenous was also the recipient of decidedly (often wildly) mixed critics' reviews, all of whom seem to agree that the movie shifts tones so often and dramatically that it's hard to actually pin it to any one genre. But like our previous movie, Jawbreaker, it has since developed a loving cult following. So this week Joey and John invited back Logan Ashley-Kisner, who considers Ravenous one of his favorite movies, to help them with the intro, and then speaks to the hosts of the podcast Least Haunted, Cody and Garth, about the history and folklore that serves as the movie's inspiration, as well as a healthy debate about whether Guy Pearce is actually attractive.

What goes bump in the night giving Kyle a fright? This week it's Ravenous (1999) directed by Antonia Bird. This cannibal period piece has a group of military men beset by a hungry, tricky wendigo. What skills would you get by eating the boys? What beloved Nintendo character is a wendigo? Where were you in 1847? Ladle some of that stew as the Boo Boys break it all down.
This week we follow up our review of Antonia Bird's Ravenous (1999) with a historical event that greatly influenced that tale--the story of the infamous Donner Party. Eli takes Dave and John on a rhetorical roller coaster ride through the facts, fiction, folklore, and follies of the doomed group of pioneers as they succumb to the harsh realities of the wilderness.Come join us!

More women! More horror! Directors. And movies. We're right in the middle of a three-part series on horror movies directed by women! This episode features very strong evidence that sometimes dead is better, a young girl who dreams of creepy storybook characters while rabbits run wild in Australia, western expansion and cannibalism in the 19th-century, and a promising medical student driven to pursue an unconventional surgical career. Stephen King should be ashamed of himself. He gave a perfectly respectful graveyard honoring animals such a bad rap. It's a place where the dead speak. But you certainly do not want to go beyond, to the place where the dead walk! Director Mary Lambert takes us there and back again, in the first feature film adaptation of Pet Sematary (1989).Political tension, and rabbit panic are running wild in Australia in 1957. A young girl struggles with forbidden friendships, the death of her grandmother, the threat of her pet rabbit being taken away, and even her own imagination. Childhood proves to be a very challenging experience for Celia (1989), directed by Ann Turner.It's manifest destiny time in the United States. But some of these characters are definitely not who you would hope to encounter if you were heading west in the mid-1800s. Director Antonia Bird serves up a darkly comedic adventure of gruesome cannibalism, with some truly unsettling music setting the tone, in Ravenous (1999)!Ah, Katharine Isabelle is featured in the role of Mary Mason. A promising young medical student, who uses her skill to perform underground body modification surgeries. But why would she leave medical school for such a pursuit? Well, money. And revenge. The Soska Sisters invite you to spend a little time under the knife, with American Mary (2012).
IT'S WRANGLERS VS. DINOSAURS, BUCKAROOS VS. WEREWOLVES, AND DISGRACED SOLDIERS VS. WESTWARD EXPANDING CANNIBALS! Howdy, cowpoke, did you just hear a spooky coyote howl? Catch a glimpse of a ghostly cow, maybe? That's probably because Gabe and returning guest Luana Saitta are talking about westerns with a horror slant this month. Well, that was the idea, at least. We ended up covering classic dino “Weird Western,” The Valley of Gwangi (directed by Jim O'Connolly, 1969), an arty frontier bodice ripper with a werewolf twist in Martin Donovan's Mad at the Moon (1992), one gen-u-ine western horror classic – Antonia Bird's Ravenous (1999). Have you guys seen Ravenous? Because it's really good. Note: I didn't notice that Luana's mic was a bit hot and that mine was echoing until I was in the process of editing. I tried to fix both issues to the best of my abilities. Please excuse our occasional crackle and echo. 00:00 – Intro 04:51 – The Valley of Gwangi 33:22 – Mad at the Moon 56:40 – Ravenous 1:30:09 – Final thoughts and outro Listen to Luana and Travis Defend a Trash Movie: https://anchor.fm/trashmoviepod/episodes/The-Black-Cauldron-1985-e1iuube Please consider donating to the following charities/fundraisers if you have any spare cash: Equality Texas (trans youth resources): https://www.equalitytexas.org/ Transgender Legal Defense & Education Fund: https://www.transgenderlegal.org/ New Voices for Reproductive Justice: https://newvoicesrj.org/about-us/

Twisted, funny, gross cannibal western packed with great, great actors at the top of their game. Directed by Antonia Bird. Screenplay by Ted Griffin. Starring Guy Pearce, Robert Carlyle, David Arquette, Jeremy Davies, Jeffrey Jones, David Arquette, Sheila Tousey and Neal McDonough. Music by Damon Albarn & Michael Nyman How is the world wrong about this movie? From Bryan: This film's release was such a misfire. Put in multiplexes in the Spring of 1999, it came and went quickly. This should've been a slow roll out release through film fests and art houses. This isn't a movie for everybody, but the ads made it seem like a regular horror flick. It is quite the opposite.

Best remembered for containing Damon Albarn's one film acting performance, as wet-behind-the-ears aspiring gangster Jason, this week's Pop Screen argues that Antonia Bird's 1997 movie Face deserves more credit. A British gangster movie made in that brief moment before Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels inspired every screenwriter in the country to write a gangster movie, it's a brutal postmortem on eighteen years of Conservative government disguised as a brutal heist-gone-wrong thriller. Those unexpected political grace notes - including an eyebrow-raising opening cameo! - are among the topics discussed by Mark and Graham in this episode, along with the film's savvy use of genre icon Ray Winstone, the rise and fall of the Blair-era London gangland thriller, and the baptism of fire Albarn received at the hands of Quadrophenia's Phil Davis. We also praise the late, much-missed Bird and her writer Ronan Bennett, and if that sounds like we've not left much room for discussion of Blur... ...well, you're right, but that's a fine reason to donate to our Patreon where we're about to release an exclusive episode about the band's 1993 documentary Starshaped. It's the latest in our monthly Pop Screen bonuses; we've also just put out an episode of our other exclusive podcast Director's Lottery about Robert Wise, covering his films The Day the Earth Stood Still and Odds Against Tomorrow.

Golden Globe-nominated Linus Roache discusses money, growing up in a family of actors, the celebrity of his father William Roache, fulfillment, happiness, and more. Guest Biography Linus Roache is a British actor, probably best known for his roles as Michael Cutter on Law and Order and Thomas Wayne in Batman Begins. In 1975, Roache appeared in Coronation Street playing Peter Barlow, the son of his father's character Ken Barlow. Roache is also a past member of the Royal Shakespeare Company. Roache was born in Manchester, Lancashire, the son of Coronation Street actor William Roache and actress Anna Cropper. Roache was educated at Bishop Luffa School in Chichester, West Sussex and at the independent Rydal School in Colwyn Bay, North Wales. He studied acting at the Central School of Speech and Drama. Beginning in the 1990s, Roache began a career in film while remaining active in television and stage. In 1994, he received acclaim for his leading role in Antonia Bird's Priest. He is best known to US audiences as Dr. Thomas Wayne, father of Batman, in Batman Begins (2005) or as Executive Assistant District Attorney Michael Cutter in the American TV series Law & Order (2008–2010) and Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (2011–2012). In June 2010, it was announced that he would return to play Laurence Cunningham, alongside his father William Roache, in Coronation Street. In July 2010, he was cast in the HBO pilot The Miraculous Year. In April 2011, Roache was cast as the lead in the ITV mini-series Titanic, airing March–April 2012 to coincide with the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the ship. In February 2014, Roache debuted in season two of the popular TV series Vikings as England's King Ecbert. He is currently filming season 7 of Homeland, where he plays White House Chief of Staff, David Wellington. Show notes: http://www.inspiredmoney.fm/007 Links Homeland Coronation Street Linus Roache (IMDb) In this episode, you will learn: How to prepare for a performance. We non-actors can event benefit by these insights and routines because life is a grand performance! How you should not tie your self-worth to your work. We'll explore all sorts of things like wealth, fulfillment, and happiness. Linus is not just a great actor but after hitting many of his professional goals by age 30, he began to wonder if this is it? He took a break and explored the spiritual aspect of life that included meditating for at least 2 hours a day! So we'll explore this too. I think it's totally relevant because being healthy includes physical health, mental health, spiritual health, and financial health. Thanks for Listening!

Ravenous (1999) Review In one of our most spirited episodes in recent memory, the gang unites with guest Mike Worby to sing the praises of Antonia Bird’s gonzo 1999 cannibal shocker Ravenous. Is it a horror movie, a western, a cannibalism drama, a homoerotic fable, a survival story, a historical epic, a black comedy, or a satire? The answer is yes. Also: lots of talk about Michael Nyman and Damon Albarn’s oddball score, the brilliant cast, Robert Carlyle’s demonic antics, and how to sell your friends on this one-of-a-kind movie.
We got through this whole episode without a single Armie Hammer reference! Not sure whether to be proud or disappointed. Ravenous is a 1999 movie about cannibalism. Fun topic, really. Turns out when you eat people, strange things start happening in you. Guy Pierce, Jeffrey Jones, Robert Carlyle, David Arquette, Joseph Runningfox, Neil McDonough, and the unflappable Sheila Tousey star in this INSANE movie. See what we had to say about Ravenous.
And here we have our review of 1999’s insane cannibal period piece RAVENOUS! Is it a tasty morsel or a rotting corpse? Listen to find out! For early access to...

This week, Aaron and Derek start preparing for Thanksgiving by tackling 1999's Western horror cannibal tale "Ravenous" directed by Antonia Bird. They discuss the problematic production life, the balance of satire and horror, and the large amount of character actors in the cast, specifically Neal McDonough and David Arquette.

After graduating from Northumbria University with a degree in fashion design, Jill decided to refocus on costume design when an opportunity arose for her to relocate to London and join the pool of assistant designers within the highly respected and busy BBC costume department. It is well known that during the 1980’s and 90’s the working environment at the BBC (costume department) was considered the ultimate place to learn, gain experience and hone your craft. During her time there, Jill went on to become a designer working on a number of the BBC’s Screen One and Screen Two prestigious series of one-off films, including Antonia Bird’s Priest.During this period of intense productivity, Jill forged great, life - long associations with an amazing variety of co-designers, producers, directors and performers; enabling her, at the right point, to seamlessly transition into the freelance sector. She went on to design three films for Woody Allen, Matchpoint, Scoop and Cassandra’s Dream. Her work on The Life and Death of Peter Sellers and My Week with Marilyn was acknowledged with multiple award recognitions from BAFTA, The Emmy’s and the US Costume Design Guild. Further credits include Johnny English, The Full Monty and Sliding Doors.When it comes to Jill deciding if a project is right for her, she explains that there are two prime considerations; the script and the director. With those factors in place, the process of creating the costume narrative and her subsequent journey will fall into place resulting in many months of enjoyable and intense application and focus.www.angelsbehindtheseams.com
Tonight we’re watching Antonia Bird’s 1999 (best year for cinema) dark-comedy, RAVENOUS! A hilarious take on the Donner Party, and personally, we’ll take any angle we can get - BIG FANS. We discuss how characters using lanterns immediately makes a movie better, DIY tips on surviving in a cave (spoiler: keep those leather shoes supple), endless queer reads, and masculinity in the time of boring fort life. Let’s all light a lantern for Antonia - RIP.

Welcome the newest episode of Dark Discussions, your place for the discussion of horror film, fiction, and all that’s fantastic. Sometimes a troubled production can lead to, if not a great film, a cult film. Ravenous is one of those pictures. Released in 1999, the film changed directors in pre-production and had strong executive overwatch. When it was first released it received mixed reviews and did little at the box office making it seem like a film that would disappear and be forgotten. But due to a number of factors it has gained a cult following. When Lieutenant Boyd becomes a hero in the Mexican-American War, he is awarded a medal and promotion, but is then sent packing to a remote garrison because it is found his heroics occurred because of a cowardly deed. At his new location, a stranger named Colquoun appears claiming that his group of settlers had been trapped in a snowstorm and resorted to cannibalism. The garrison’s colonel decides to lead an expedition to see if they can retrieve any survivors. Unfortunately for the scouting party, things turn horribly wrong. Starring Guy Pearce and Robert Carlyle at the time they were considered up-and-coming leading men, the films cast, the film’s quirky humor and shocking violence brought it attention years later when it hit the video and disc market. Also, being directed by a woman, Antonia Bird, has given it more visibility. Dark Discussions takes a look at this film and gives their opinion. As always we welcome your comments: darkdiscussions@aol.com (written email or attached mp3 files) WWW.DARKDISCUSSIONS.COM

We hear about Sterlin's journey to becoming a filmmaker and he shares memories of growing up in rural Oklahoma as 'that weird artist kid'. Sterlin talks about being a founding member of renown Native comedy group the 1491s and reflects on the beginning project that catapulted the group to what it is today. Sterlin also talks about Standing Rock as an Indigenous led global movement and we get his perspective regarding the film works that have come since. Sterlin also offers his insight for existing in a world consumed by social media and offers advice on how to approach creating film work in today's accessible media platforms. Sterlin Harjo belongs to the Seminole and Creek Nations, and is a native of Holdenville, Oklahoma. Interested from an early age in visual art and film, Harjo studied painting at the University of Oklahoma before writing his first feature-length script.

Sterlin's project was one of 12 projects chosen from a pool of almost 2,500 based on the uniqueness of his voice, the originality of his story and the promise of this feature film offering something poignant to American cinema.

Critic Tim Robey and film buyer Clare Binns reveal what they're looking forward to in this year's Cannes film festival.

He also talks to composer Olga Neuwirth, who writes concert works as well as hybrids of film, theatre and performance art, and who has written the score for Goodnight Mommy, an Austrian horror film released in the UK this week.

Lee Russell and Daniel Harper review Antonia Bird's "Ravenous".
Howdy, pardners! Nos vamos al oeste para finalizar la década de los 90 con una película que, al menos para Víctor, pasó totalmente desapercibida y que vista con el tiempo ha ganado mucho. Esta historia de canibalismo en la frontera del viejo oeste, mitología india y humor muy negro tiene en su haber grandes actores(Un Robert Carlyle en la cumbre de su popularidad, un Jeffrey Jones con su rareza habitual y un Guy Pearce cuando molaba) y una estupenda ambientación, amén de la peculiar música compuesta por Damon Albarn de Blur, ahí es nada. Mañana más!
