Holt die Blumenkränze und die weißen Kleider raus: Wir feiern Midsommar! Der längste Tag des Jahres steht schon in den Startlöchern, deswegen haben wir uns den Film von Ari Aster noch mal genau angesehen. Dabei haben wir uns die wichtigsten Fragen gestellt: Ist Christian der schlimmste Freund der Filmgeschichte? Was steckt wirklich hinter dem Mythos von alten Menschen, die von Klippen springen? Die zweite Frage kann Arie mit Fakten beantworten, zur ersten Frage hat Lena immerhin sehr viel Meinung.  Genießt die kurzen Nächte mit dieser Folge und wenn jemand schwedisch mit euch spricht, fragt lieber noch mal nach – und lasst euch keinen Bären aufbinden!

Obsession (2025) | Does Curry Barker's Divisive Horror Live Up to the Hype? ft. Raiders of the Podcast & EF ContentmentJose (Cupcake) and Mike (WillDaBeast) bring back two beloved pod guests — Kevin from Raiders of the Podcast and E.f. Contentment — for a spoiler-free review of Obsession (2025), the polarizing TIFF sensation from YouTube filmmaker Curry Barker, now distributed by Blumhouse.Part Gen Z Fatal Attraction, part Ari Aster descent-into-dread, Obsession arrives loaded with hype, and the crew debates whether it earns every bit of it. Starring Michael Johnston and a star-making Indy Navarrete, this is a horror film with layers: a monkey's paw premise modernized into something raw, uncomfortable, and genuinely hard to shake. Imagine Hereditary meets May meets Fresh — and you're still not quite there.The Boyz cover Barker's origin story (including his debut $800 found footage film Milk & Serial), the film's consent and mental health subtext, and whether Indy Navarrete is the next Mia Goth.

Sam Clements is curating a fictional film festival. He'll accept almost anything, but the movie must not be longer than 90 minutes. This is the 90 Minutes Or Less Film Fest podcast. In episode 165 Sam is joined by filmmaker György Pálfi, writer and director of Hukkle and Taxidermia. His new film Hen [Kota] is in UK cinemas from 22 May 2026. A big thank you to Mark Baczoni for translating the conversation.  György has chosen The Firemen's Ball [Hoří, Má Panenko] (73 mins). Directed by Miloš Forman, the Czechoslovak New Wave satirical comedy was nominated for Best Foreign Language Film at the 1969 Oscars, and was the last film Forman made in his native country of Czechoslovakia. Sam and György discuss filming Hen from the point of view of a chicken, his film Hukkle being selected for the podcast by Ari Aster, and why The Firemen's Ball still resonates today.  Listen to Ari Aster talk about György's film Hukkle on this podcast.

Welcome back! This week the ladies dive into "The Drama", the uncomfortable, anxiety-inducing A24 film starring  Zendaya and Robert Pattinson. What starts as an awkward romantic drama about an engaged couple heading into their wedding week, quickly spirals into something much darker after a “worst thing you've ever done” conversation goes completely off the rails. Emma reveals a disturbing part of her teenage past, and that one confession detonates the relationship, the "friend"group, and the entire wedding weekend. We break down the film's tense atmosphere, uncomfortable chemistry, and the bigger conversations surrounding alienation, radical honesty, identity, and whether people should be permanently defined by their teenage years. We also discuss how the movie intentionally challenges audience expectations by centering a Black woman in a narrative typically associated with a very different demographic, and whether that changes the level of empathy viewers are willing to extend. If you watched this movie and immediately needed to unpack all of that emotional chaos with somebody, this episode is for you. Cheers!

Novum, or James as his real name is, has made a name of himself on Youtube where he makes in-depth analysis of cult horror films such as The VVitch, Alien and our focus in this episode: Ari Aster movies. I stumbled upon Novum's youtube channel on Reddit where someone made a joke about making a 7 hour long analysis of Midsommar A youtube video I immediately devoured.  This podcast is usually in Swedish.

Was im Leben so oft gesagt wird, gilt beim Thema Kurzfilm definitiv: Es kommt nicht auf die Länge an, sondern auf die Technik… oder auf die Idee, die Schauspielenden, das Drehbuch oder einfach nur den Mut. Neu erschienene Kurzfilme sind so leicht zugänglich wie nie zuvor in der Filmgeschichte. Doch wie lassen sich in der Flut aus Muscheln die Perlen finden? Wir versuchen euch in dieser Folge weiter zu helfen und besprechen insgesamt zwölf Kurzfilme, decken dabei über 100 Jahre Filmgeschichte ab und haben von Ari Aster bis Charles Chaplin jede Alliteration im Gepäck. Freut euch auf Er im Paradies (1921), ZVP (2017), Laurel & Hardy - Der zermürbende Klaviertransport (1932), The Strange Thing About The Johnsons (2011), Steamboat Willie (1928), The Amazing Screw-On Head (2006), Buster Keaton bekämpft die blutige Hand (1921), The Robbery (2017), Im Schallplattenladen (1934), Too Many Cooks (2014), Ein Hundeleben (1918) und Super (2023).

Welcome to Decorating the Set: From Hollywood to Your Home with Beth Kushnick!  This week on Decorating the Set, Beth and Caroline sit down with actor, writer, director and producer of 2022's Forty Winks and 2025's Atrabilious, William Atticus Parker. Will is here to discuss his new movie, The Auction, which is in pre-production (and which Beth is Production Designer), and his journey to becoming a filmmaker in a changing industry.

Interact with Beth, Caroline, Producer Mike, and all of the DTS listeners! GUEST BIO: WILLIAM ATTICUS PARKER   William Atticus Parker is a writer, director, producer, and actor living in Brooklyn, New York. At twenty-one years old, he has already written, directed, and produced two micro-low-budget feature films. Forty Winks, starring Justin Marcel McManus and Susan Sarandon, had a successful festival run and is now streaming on Prime Video, Tubi, Roku, and more. Atrabilious, starring Leon Addison Brown, Mark Boone Junior, Jeffrey Wright, and Whoopi Goldberg, had a successful festival run and will release on Prime Video July 18th, 2025. Forty Winks was filmed in Black & White with Atrabilious drenched in a neon color palette. Despite technical and financial limitations, both films did very well with critics and audiences alike. Forty Winks was filmed in less than a week with a budget of $5,000 when he was 17 and Atrabilious was filmed in a week and a half with a budget of $20,000 when he was 18 – both films were entirely self-funded. The Auction, his upcoming third feature starring Raúl Castillo & Mary-Louise Parker, is set to take his small-scale darkly comedic thrillers to a science-fiction horror spectacle. His acting career began as a seven-frame cameo in Forty Winks. He has now taken on roles in The Gray House (directed by Roland Joffe), Obstacle (short film with Megan Boone) and Their Town (written by Mark Duplass) as well as being set to appear in The Auction. His inspirations include Jordan Peele, Ari Aster, Donald Glover, Spike Lee, Wes Anderson and Joel & Ethan Coen.

After the impossible high of director, Ari Aster's debut, Hereditary, for me the follow-up Midsommar was a complete miss. Since then he's posted two take no prisoners art-house triumphs, Beau is Afraid and this equally wild but very different meta-western. The most analogous film to One Battle After Another and just about as good. Ari is one of the greatest out there right now as is his lead actor Joaquin Phoenix, in one of his finest and most unknowable roles.

Alex's brother Michael makes his podcast debut to break down one of 2025's most divisive films in Ari Aster's Eddington. A modern western/paranoid thriller/dark comedy that drags it's viewers into the depths of the COVID response & associated culture wars, it's a movie that isn't subtle in it's motives and vibrant in it's expression. Love it or hate it, Eddington is tough to forget and worth bringing to the Captive Audience theater. So dig out your old K95 masks, keep your eyes peeled for Antifa supersoldiers, and pump up the Katy Perry while we break down 2025's most unique movie. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Oscars may have come and gone, the speeches have been made, and the dust has (mostly) settled—but here at Ticket Stubs, we're not quite finished with 2025 just yet. A little late, perhaps, but right on time where it counts, we're officially closing the book on the cinematic year that was with our 3rd Annual Harry Dean Awards—the true final word on awards season. Join us as we take one last affectionate look back at the highs, lows, and, above all else, the most memorable moments in film from the past year. From defining performances and standout directorial efforts to our favorite oddball distinctions, returning legends, and everything in between, we sort through a wide array of categories both heartfelt and slightly irreverent. As always, it all builds toward our ultimate honors: Filmmaker of the Year and Film of the Year. Awards season may have crowned its winners—but now it's our turn to have the final say. As always, please like, subscribe, rate, and review us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and wherever else you listen! Got thoughts or questions? Email us at huffmanbrothersproductions@gmail.com

In the wake of the Prairieland verdict, Sam and Jamie speak with Alex and Blue, two comrades engaged in support work for the defendants. How did this ridiculous show trial, in which evidence included possession of a feminist essay on the movies of Ari Aster (yes, you read that right) result in convictions for the defendants on almost all counts? The invention of "Antifa" as a domestic terrorist group. The various ways the Trump administration put its thumb on the scale for the prosecution and the implications for dissent in the Trump 2.0 era. How this case dovetails with Trump's persecution of trans people. Plus, we read the names of the people who snitched.

We made it to Episode 500!

Happy 2026, Vintage Sand fans! Thank you for taking time away from looking for real estate opportunities in Greenland to join us for Episodes 65 and 66, our first of 2026. Herein, Team Vintage Sand returns one last time to the source of some of our most popular episodes: Danny Peary's hard-to-find 1993 classic "Alternate Oscars". In the past, we have used Peary's model to approach the Best Picture Academy Awards from every decade going back to the 1930's. Collect them all! For this episode, we wrap up this series with the most recent complete decade, the 2010's. First, a caveat: we began this podcast eight years ago, in the spring of 2018, which means that we have already discussed many of today's films in a number of different contexts already. We did our Best of the Teens in early 2020, and recently did our Top 10 of the Century so far, wherein many of the films we're talking about today are contained. Add in that we did episodes on the best of 2018 and 2019, respectively, in those years, and you get the sense that we have already covered this ground several times. But like all good film fans, we're completists, so we conclude this series of episodes with these two, which will focus on 2010 to 2014 and 2015 to 2019 respectively. Mercifully, perhaps, these episodes are shorter than most others we've done, simply because, as mentioned, this is terrain we have covered several times already. The teens were clearly a transitional time for film, especially in Hollywood. The foreign market came to dominate, as did the teen market, which led to a kind of lowest common denominator for American film in these years. Throw in the uncertainties created by the rise of streaming and the changes in where and how people watch film, and you have…well, it's still a little too early to tell what the 2010's will look like to film historians, if there are indeed any film historians left. That being said, it's clear that the decade featured some of the greatest films ever made, ones that will stand the test of time and will continue to be watched long into the future. In many ways, the Mexican New Wavers dominated the decade, winning half of the Best Director Oscars for the whole decade: Del Toro for "Shape of Water", Cuarón for "Gravity" and "Roma", and Iñárritu for "Birdman" and "The Revenant". And of course, the stunning triumph of "Parasite" ended a decade in film that many were ready to write off (and got rid of the bad taste left behind by "Green Book" the previous year). It was also a decade that saw the arrival of some wildly innovative and talented filmmakers, among them Chloe Zhao, Ryan Coogler, Ava Duvernay, Jordan Peele, Greta Gerwig, Steve McQueen, and Damien Chazelle, plus amazing directors who transcended often marginalized genres like Ari Aster, Alex Garland, Robert Eggers and Denis Villeneuve. We also saw some great works from directors who came of age in the 90's and early 00's like David Fincher, the Coens, Spike Lee, Christopher Nolan, Todd Haynes and the Andersons, both Wes and PTA divisions. And for the icing on the cake, we got some brilliant work from the old guard Hollywood New Wavers like Martin Scorsese (who just seemed to pick up steam as the decade went on), Steven Spielberg, (at least with "Lincoln"), Terrence Malick and, most surprisingly, Paul Schrader. So make yourselves comfortable, have yourselves one of those lovely pastries from Mendl's, and join us for our final foray into the world of Best Picture Alternate Oscars!

Alexandria Collins does not look away from the dark. She walks straight into it, eyes open, camera steady. A filmmaker shaped by Tallahassee soil and Los Angeles light, she builds stories that breathe with heat, faith, doubt, and desire. From her early work in Emotional Intelligence and Goals N' Shit to her newest chapters behind the lens, Alexandria has committed herself to character driven storytelling that asks harder questions. “We have to face our darkness and our light, not deny any part of ourselves,” she says. And she means it.Her horror short Reborn emerged from a vision. A young girl rises from baptismal waters with power humming beneath her skin. What followed was not spectacle, but excavation. Raised in the church and fluent in its language, Alexandria flipped the hierarchy of belief on its head, questioning who holds power and who decides what is holy. That vision found a home in Hulu's Bite Size Huluween series and opened new doors. She cites Ari Aster, Jordan Peele, and Stanley Kubrick as masters of tension, architects of dread. You can feel that influence in her work, but the voice is her own. Southern. Spiritual. Unafraid.Named to the 2025 directing cohort of Film Independent's Project Involve, Alexandria stands at the intersection of craft and calling. As Founder and Executive Producer of Supernormal Ventures, she shepherds stories from spark to screen, developing shorts, features, and pilots while collaborating with platforms like Hulu and Galatea TV. She has led marketing teams, produced award winning projects, organized festival strategy, and moved fluidly between art and execution. From the 39th Student Senate at FAMU to working alongside Taye Diggs on a vertical drama, she has learned how power moves in rooms. More importantly, she has learned how to move it with intention.In this episode of Visual Intonation, we sit with a filmmaker who listens to cicadas and sermons, who reads thrillers even when they terrify her, who understands that faith and fear share a heartbeat. We talk about religion and rebellion. About building worlds from a single image. About what it means to claim authority as a Black woman director in rooms not built for you. This is a conversation about tension. About tenderness. About facing the water and choosing to rise.Alexandria Collins:ALEXANDRIA COLLINSSource: IMDbAlexandria Collins - IMDbSource: InstagramAlexandria Collins (@acscollins) • Instagram photos and videoshttps://vimeo.com/alexandriacscollinsSupport the showVisual Intonation Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/visualintonation/Vante Gregory's Website: vantegregory.comVante Gregory's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vantegregory/ To support me on Patreon (thank you): patreon.com/visualintonations Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@visualintonation

On this episode of Cinema D'Amore, Chuck and Justin dive into Ari Aster's Eddington, a COVID-era small-town pressure cooker where civic order, online hysteria, and personal grievance collide. What begins as a grounded portrait of pandemic anxiety gradually mutates into something far more unstable… and violent. They break down Joaquin Phoenix's deliberately abrasive sheriff, Pedro Pascal's smooth but slippery mayoral rival, and how misinformation, social media performance, and moral absolutism rot the town from the inside out. The conversation zeroes in on Aster's tonal bait-and-switch, the film's shocking final act, and the bleak emotional fallout that refuses easy catharsis. Love it or hate it, Eddington demands a reaction, and Chuck and Justin don't dodge the mess.
