David Bax of Battleship Pretension returns for his third sleepover in the witch house where he witnesses Jim have an existentialist crisis in real time as he realizes that perhaps Mia Watkins' and Catherine Hardwicke's supremely unfaithful adaptation is not very good. Keziah Mason looks cool no doubt, but this adaptation in name only ditches the fatalism and math for spiritualism and a version of Brown Jenkins whose masterplan is just to be kind of a big jerk, I guess?  If you want your own "Fight Like a Final Girl" t-shirt, be sure to head over to Poltergeists and Paramours.

Battleship Pretension's David Bax returns almost two years after his first appearance to talk about yet another adaptation of "Dreams in the Witch House" (and also his latest podcast, The One Where I Met Your Mother and also his thoughts on NHL free agency). Basically everything from the production quality to narrative logic in Bobby Easley's H.P. Lovecraft's Witch House (based on the novel Push by Sapphire) is severely lacking, but gosh darnit, at least it feels like they're trying. Sure, the ending muddles the entire journey and the story plays up too much Judeo-Christian mythology and the math literally adds up to nothing, but at least they're trying something beyond straight titillation.  Follow David on Twitter @daveypretension Listen to The One Where I Met Your Mother Check out The Cast of Cthulhu on Facebook or Twitter and email any questions or comments to moviesofmadness@gmail.com.

Full Transcript

David Bax, the other half of the Battleship Potemkin podcast, joins us just days after having read his first H.P. Lovecraft short story to discuss Stuart Gordon's adaptation of it, "Dreams in the Witch-House"! You'll have to wade through roughly 19 minutes of nostalgia for Showtime's short-lived Masters of Horror, but after that, there's plenty of discussion of the 3 biggest things wrong with Gordon's last foray into Lovecraft adaptations: 1. Ezra Godden 2. Stripping the source text of its most menacing and interesting elements to fit an hour-long runtime 3. Ezra Godden Listen to and read David at Battleship Pretension Follow him on Twitter @daveypretension

David Bax remains the only I Do Movies Badly guest to actively pitch me topics and thus, he returns for the second time in three months to discuss some Canuxploitation films - or, less fun, "tax shelter films" - in which our neighbors of the Great White North used tax laws to create genre films that were precursors to American genre films in more ways than one. There is, of course, some talk about the impending NHL playoffs and why they're a stupid idea, wading into the waters of questioning if Hamilton is a "movie" or not, and, obviously, the recommendations: Bob Clark's Black Christmas (1974), George Mihalka's My Bloody Valentine (1981), and Mark L. Lester's Class of 1984 (1982). 

This week's Out Now with Aaron and Abe (https://www.facebook.com/outnowpodcast) is receiving a signal… from the skies! Aaron and Battleship Pretension’s David Bax discuss The Vast of Night, the directorial debut of Andrew Patterson. The guys discuss the strength of this directorial debut and what it is about this 50s-set sci-fi flick that speaks well to what independent features are capable of. Following some listener feedback, the group also discusses streaming services, which ones cater to what aspects of media, smaller services deserving a shout out, and the best way to allocate funds in regards to which services would serve best for folks.

I Do Movies Badly returns from its month-long with David Bax of Battleship Pretension in tow (tug? Like a tugboat? That's a boat joke). It's been a while, so there's a good deal of catching up first including some talk on working and viewing habits in the pandemic, recapping my improvised marriage in the face of a shelter in place order, and revisiting the lost bet* that resulted in David choosing the topic of discussion.  That topic of discussion, by the way, is on Soviet silent films, which were ahead of their times in how they pioneered editing techniques (...and state funded propaganda). It's a return to film school as David recommends Sergei Eistenstein's Battleship Potemkin (1925), Vsevolod Pudovkin's Mother (1926), and Dziga Vertov's Man with a Movie Camera (1929).

This week's Out Now with Aaron and Abe (https://www.facebook.com/outnowpodcast) is what it is. Aaron and Abe are joined by First Showing’s Alex Billington and Battleship Pretension’s David Bax to go over Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, the final entry in the Skywalker Saga (including a clearly-noted spoiler discussion). Hear what this group has to say about this J.J. Abrams-directed series finale of the biggest movie franchise of all time, along with additional thoughts on the upcoming Christopher Nolan movie, Tenet, and more. Among the topics covered, there’s a fun round of Know Everybody (4:47), Out Now Quickies™ (9:53), Trailer Talk for Tenet (21:42), the main review (31:35), Games (1:42:00), and Out Now Feedback (1:53:32). The gang then wraps things up (2:03:05), followed by this week's closeout song, plus a blooper (2:11:45). So now, if you've got an hour or so to kill...

Aaron and Abe are joined by David Bax to discuss Scary Stories to tell In the Dark.

We might be through with the mumblecore, but the mumblecore ain't through with us. David Bax returns to I Do Movies Badly to convince Jim to give mumblecore another chance, to explain his distaste for the label "mumblecore," and to discuss Stanley Cup predictions that, due to recording in May, are already hilariously dated! David didn't care for Jape Man's recommendations back in the day, so he's making three of his own: Andrew Bujalski's Funny Ha Ha (2002), Barry Jenkins's Medicine for Melancholy (2008), and Lena Dunham's Tiny Furniture (2010).

David Bax stops by I Do Movies Badly for his fourth tour of duty to talk hockey for far too long (of course) and the idiosyncratic arthouse films of South Korean filmmaker, Kim Ki-duk, who Jim literally had no idea existed until David pitched the idea. What Jim learns is that the films of the Catholic filmmaker living in a predominantely Buddist country are unfairly linked together with the South Korean Revenge subgenre and often deal with themes of what it means to be human and if humans deserve the world in which they live (or live in the world they deserve). Those films are: The Isle (2000), Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter...and Spring (2003), and Pieta (2012).

This week’s Out Now with Aaron and Abe heads to snowy Utah. Aaron and Abe are joined by Alex Billington and David Bax to discuss the highlights of the Sundance Film Festival.
