Our Bedroom to Box Office Summer Event begins with David Cronenberg's sophomore effort, RABID - a horror ditty starring iconic adult movie star Marilyn Chambers. The concept of patient zero using an armpit-stinger to infect other people must have blown critics' minds back in the 70s, leading to a fresh 78% Tomatometer score. To us? It's basic, uninspired Cronenberg.

Dan, Manny, & Billy welcome back Nostalgia Test Podcast all-star Meghan Nolan to put the 1996 Pauly Shore Stephen Baldwin “comedy” Bio-Dome to the ultimate test—THE NOSTALGIA TEST!   “Dude, could you think of a worse person to get high with than Pauly Shore? Like, there is literally no one that I would rather less get high with than Pauly Shore. 'Cause I would be like, "Dude, shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up." Could you imagine that, dude?” -Billy D'Elia   Dear Nostalgia Testers, this is the episode that almost broke the podcast. The guys decided to put their fate in The Wheel of Pauly Shore and was given the task of putting Bio-Dome to the test, and boy was it a huge... well. This movie defines the major issues with the 90s and why Manny talks about 80s cheese vs 90s trash. This movie seems like it was written by AI but was instead written by three people. That's right?! It took three people to write these lines that Pauly Shore and Stephen Baldwin literally fart out for 90 minutes. This movie sets the bar lower than low for men and is an insult to any and all men. The so-called jokes use sexual assault as a punchline, there's a Nazi salute that happens as all these morons go into the bio-dome, homophobia, and more badly developed body humor and horror than a David Cronenberg film. Dan, Manny, Billy, and Meghan go through some deep self-reflection starting with shame, shame that they all saw this movie, some more than 5 times, denial that they thought it was ever good, anger that this movie was even made, and acceptance that this is why they do this podcast. Dan creates a Bio-Dome “Would You Rather” game, and let's just say someone would rather wear a diaper for a week than watch Bio-Dome. So, take something really strong to calm yourself down, gather all your Pauly Shore movies and adoration, light a huge dumpster fire, and join The Nostalgia Test Podcast as we attempt to erase this part of the 90s from existence.

Tonight, on After Hours Cinema: From the desk of Pete: "Pete has gained a reputation for enjoying films of...um..well...a certain quality. He loves to test his co-hosts with movies filled with blood, beasts and a bounty of boobs but ever since AHCRAP officially hit the airwaves, Anna has slam dunked on Pete picks. This week, Anna not only doubles down on the perverted-ness, but also has the audacity to give him a 'People's Elbow' with legendary director David Cronenberg. 1996's Crash is quite literally like watching an automobile accident; you can't look away, you hope everything turns out ok and when it doesn't, you feel bad about watching. The conversation we have is wild and hilarious with a few stingers that certainly turn into a cross-show running gag."

"Heathcliff, it's me, I'm Cathy, I've come home, I'm so cold, Let me in-a-your window . . ." Kate Bush song aside, up next on CITIZEN FRAME we're discussing obsessive desire, people getting sexually aroused by public executions, and someone turning into a dog for reasons best left alone . . . No, it's not some sort of batshit David Cronenberg horror film -- it's the recently released "WUTHERING HEIGHTS" starring Barbie herself and Frankenstein's monster! Enjoy! #MargotRobbie #MartinClunes #JacobElordi #EmeraldFennell  

"Crímenes del Futuro" (2022) del director David Cronenberg.

Vi tar oss an tidsloopar som fenomen i skräckfilmen och tittar lite extra på spanska Timecrimes från 2007 och Triangle från 2009. Nils påvisar skillnaden på den deterministiska och den fria tidsloopen, vilka vi kan se exempel på i avsnittet, och Tomas kan inte riktigt greppa koncepten med hopp i tiden och försöker desperat hävda att det egentligen gäller alla människor. Vi pratar också kort om: Tenet, Nacho Vigalondo, Schrödingers katt, Chekov's gun, David Cronenberg, David Lynch, The O.C, The Shining, psykisk ohälsa, föräldraskap, CGI-stormar, autism, The Babadook, Hemsworth, Idiot plot och riktiga människor. För patrons pratar vi också om guldrullarna Happy Death Day från 2017 och japanska Exit 8 från 2025.  Mycket nöje! 

Prosegue il nostro viaggio nel cinema horror grazie al ritorno di Antonio Buoso per parlare dell'affascinante "Cabal" conosciuto anche come "Nightbreed" film diretto da Clive Barker e basato sul suo romanzo omonimo del 1988.Aaron Boone è un giovane tormentato da sogni ricorrenti su una città sotterranea chiamata Midian, rifugio di creature mostruose chiamate i Nightbreed. Manipolato dal suo psicanalista, il sinistro Dr. Decker (interpretato da David Cronenberg), Boone viene incastrato per una serie di omicidi e finisce per scoprire che Midian esiste davvero.Un film che affronta temi come l'emarginazione, l'identità e il rovesciamento del concetto di mostro: i veri antagonisti sono gli esseri umani "normali", mentre i creature di Midian rappresentano gli esclusi e i diversi che cercano solo un posto sicuro nel mondo.

It's hard to think anyone could argue against the cast of this DENNIS THE MENACE adaptation. It's not just Matthau, Thompson, and Christopher Lloyd doing solid work, but also Mason Gamble as Dennis, holding his own against them. And it's directed by Nick Castle, the original Michael Myers? We can all agree it's an artifact of interest at least. But is it a good movie too, or does it only work if you let nostalgia for the 90s (and perhaps your own childhood) overwhelm you?TIMELINE00:01:26 Only been around for five years00:02:27 Real Talk00:49:59 The Future & Patreon Stuff- Interested in more Contrarians goodness?

LexG with some mini "lightning rounds" on a few formative faves, from David Cronenberg to Kathryn Bigelow to Walter Hill, with a few shorter riffs on Paul Verhoeven, Peter Hyams, and John Badham. Not meant to be comprehensive or scholarly, just freeform riffing about some favorite filmmakers, in what might become an ongoing occasional series or segment.

Chris Paul and Burning Bright settle into a new Thursday night 10:30 PM ET time slot with a deep dive into David Cronenberg's 2007 crime drama Eastern Promises, written by Steven Knight and starring Viggo Mortensen, Naomi Watts, Vincent Cassel, and Armin Mueller-Stahl. The guys unpack why this stoic, brutal character study is more than a mob movie. It's a meditation on moral relativism, the weapons of the enemy, and the blurry line between systems and sovereigns. Along the way, they argue that stories (not facts) are the real terrain of the info war, using Nikolai's undercover FSB operation as a lens for understanding narrative warfare, controlled opposition, and what it really means when you can't verify any of the "real" stories being fed through your screen. They also wander into the Russian Vory code, the Ukrainian oligarch pipeline, Putin's strange bureaucratic war on the criminal underworld, the Donbas trafficking pipeline, and why Nikolai's tattoo ceremony is really a ritual of dehumanization. Plus, a sneak peek at next week's pick: No Country for Old Men.

The very funny Nick Kocher and Brian McElhaney had never seen David Cronenberg's The Dead Zone, so naturally we had to make them watch it and report back. You know Nick & Brian collectively as BriTANiK from their sketch work at SNL, their writing on It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and the two movies they have coming out this April: Pizza Movie, which they wrote and directed and is out now on Hulu, and Over Your Dead Body, hitting theaters this very weekend. So, what did they think of Cronenberg's film? Well, you'll have to listen and find out, but I will say that had just as many questions for Vespe and Breznican as the hosts had for them.

This week, the boys teleport back to 1986, when Jeff Goldblum was awkward yet ripped and writing was weird, especially for women. Only our second David Cronenberg after “Crimes of the Future”, we dive into “The Fly”: the tropey writing, the B-movie plot outline done at an A-list scale with top-notch hair and makeup, and why we all walked away with different ratings for the movie.

This is a preview of a premium episode from our Patreon feed, Paid Costly For Me! Head over to Patreon.com/PodCastyForMe to hear more for just $5 a month. We're back with another commentary track, this time for a movie by a director we almost covered: David Cronenberg. His 1988 identical twin gynecologist horror-tragedy DEAD RINGERS deals with all kinds of themes we love: the nature of the self, of experience, of the body, of morality. It's also got the guy from Soderbergh's KAFKA and the lady from TIGHTROPE and OBSESSION. Listen to this along with the film or just listen on its own - it works either way, in our opinion! "Dead Ringers" by Ron Rosenbaum & Susan Edmiston Thanks as always to Jetski for our theme music and Jeremy Allison for our artwork.

In this episode of Face2Face, David Peck sits down with filmmaker Andy Hines and songwriter Adam Baldwin to explore the powerful Canadian film Little Lorraine. What begins as a conversation about a song becomes a deeper reflection on storytelling, community and the human condition. Together, they unpack how a simple narrative rooted in Cape Breton evolves into a compelling film about desperation, resilience, and belonging. With stunning cinematography and emotionally rich performances, Little Lorraine is ultimately a story about family, survival and the quiet search for healing in hard times.Andy Hines was born into a creative family, Andy's passion for the arts has been a lifelong endeavor. As the son of a landscape and portrait photographer, Andy grew up with a camera in his hands and the opportunity to travel and grow a world view from an early age.As a Grammy nominated director, Andy has spent over a decade working alongside musicians ranging from Beyonce, Kanye West, and Missy Elliott to Luke Combs and Keith Urban. His range has never been limited by genre or style. His work has garnered multiple MTV VMA Awards and nominations as well as five Cannes Lions including Gold for both commercials and music videos.His debut feature film titled, Little Lorraine, premiered in September 2025 at The Toronto International Film Festival. The film stars Stephen Amell, J. Balvin, Sean Astin and Rhys Darby. Beyond filmmaking, Andy has spent time as an art director for Converse special projects and as a creative director for Grammy nominated singer Khalid, designing the campaign that brought Khalid on the tarmac for his historic performance in front of the Virgin Galactic on its maiden voyage to space.When Andy is away from set, he spends much of his time in the wilderness of Canada and Northern California raising his two daughters, tending to his lifelong passion of raising chickens and goats.Adam Baldwin is a Canadian singer-songwriter from Nova Scotia known for his vivid, character-driven storytelling and East Coast perspective. Blending folk, country, and rock influences, his music explores themes of hardship, resilience, and everyday life with honesty and depth.His song Lighthouse in Little Lorraine, inspired by a real story, became the foundation for the feature film of the same name. Baldwin also contributed to the screenplay, helping bring authenticity to the film's voice and setting.His work is rooted in lived experience, capturing the struggles and spirit of working-class communities, and continues to resonate with audiences through its raw, human, and deeply relatable storytelling.David Peck is a writer, speaker, and award-winning podcaster who works at the intersection of storytelling, social change, and meaningful dialogue.

We are back and we figured what better day to drop our Shin Godzilla episode. The day the first teaser for Godzilla Minus Zero was released. Well we did it. We watched another Godzilla movie. This movie is part allegory and part Godzilla movie by way of David Cronenberg. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did. 

Kristoffer Borgli's The Drama uses the revelation of one character's dark secret as a provocative “twist,” but also as the basis for an exploration of whether a romantic relationship can survive such dramatic upheaval, a premise that calls to mind 2005's A History of Violence. The central couple of David Cronenberg's thriller, played by Viggo Mortensen and Maria Bello, is much further along in their marriage than the altar-bound pair in The Drama, which lends fascinating nuance to their attempts to reckon with the husband's violent past — particularly for a bunch of podcasters who are decades into their own long-term relationships. So this week we do our own reckoning with the film's ideas about how violence can shape a person and redefine a marriage, and what makes A History of Violence stand out among both action thrillers and Cronenberg films. Then in Feedback, we welcome some constructive criticism regarding Project Hail Mary as well as our choice of film to pair it with.  Please share your thoughts about A History of Violence, The Drama, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

Phil Lord and Christopher Miller's Project Hail Mary is an exceptionally audience-friendly adaptation of Andy Weir's novel of the same name, offsetting the story's doomsday scenario with lots of jokes, a charismatic lead, and most especially the buddy dynamic between Ryan Gosling's human protagonist and an alien engineer named Rocky. The film's light touch has made it a hit, but it also left some of your Next Picture Show hosts wanting more, as we break down in our discussion of the new film before turning to Connections and a companion film that's as prickly as Project Hail Mary is cuddly: Douglas Trumbull's 1972 directorial feature debut, Silent Running. Sure, both films explore the idea of a lonely man finding human connection in a non-human companion, the threat of worldwide ecological collapse, and the question of what we owe the Earth and what causes are worth dying for, but each takes a very different approach, to very different effect... as do the several other films we considered pairing with PHM, which we collectively recommend in Your Next Picture Show. Please share your thoughts about Silent Running, Project Hail Mary, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

Neue Podcast-Episode: Ready or Not 2, Der Super Mario Galaxy Film und Shelter – unsere Filmkritik zum aktuellen Kinoprogramm In der neuen Folge unseres Filmpodcasts dreht sich alles um drei Titel, die aktuell besonders viel Aufmerksamkeit bekommen: „Ready or Not 2: Here I Come“, „Der Super Mario Galaxy Film“ und „Shelter“ mit Jason Statham. Wenn du nach einer schnellen, fundierten Entscheidung suchst, welche Filme sich im Kino lohnen – oder einfach Lust auf eine unterhaltsame, spoilerarme Einordnung hast – bist du hier genau richtig. Den Auftakt macht „Ready or Not 2: Here I Come“, die Fortsetzung des Horror-Comedy-Hits. Regie führen erneut Matt Bettinelli-Olpin und Tyler Gillett, und Samara Weaving ist wieder als Grace dabei. Dieses Mal wird der Druck noch größer: Die Geschichte setzt direkt nach den Ereignissen des ersten Films an und schickt Grace in eine neue, tödliche Runde, in der es um Macht, Regeln und das nackte Überleben geht. Mit dabei sind unter anderem Kathryn Newton, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Elijah Wood, Shawn Hatosy und David Cronenberg. Als zweites sprechen wir über den großen Animations-Blockbuster „Der Super Mario Galaxy Film“. Die Fortsetzung baut auf dem Erfolg des Vorgängers auf und schickt Mario und Luigi diesmal buchstäblich in neue Sphären. Regie führen Aaron Horvath und Michael Jelenic, das Drehbuch stammt von Matthew Fogel. Im Original sind unter anderem Chris Pratt (Mario), Charlie Day (Luigi), Anya Taylor‑Joy (Peach) und Jack Black (Bowser) wieder dabei – ergänzt durch Neuzugänge wie Donald Glover (Yoshi), Brie Larson (Rosalina) und Benny Safdie (Bowser Jr.). In unserer Podcast-Einordnung geht es um Tempo, Humor, Fanservice und die Frage, ob der Film eher für eingefleischte Nintendo-Fans oder auch für Familien ohne „Mario-Vorwissen“ funktioniert. Zum Schluss folgt Action: „Shelter“ ist ein Thriller mit Jason Statham als zurückgezogen lebendem Mann auf einer abgelegenen schottischen Insel. Als er ein junges Mädchen aus einem Sturm rettet, zieht er ungewollt gefährliche Gegner an – und muss sich seiner Vergangenheit stellen. Regie führt Ric Roman Waugh, das Drehbuch schrieb Ward Parry. Wir sprechen darüber, wie gut die Mischung aus klassischer Statham-Action und emotionaler Survival-Spannung aufgeht und ob „Shelter“ im Kino-Actionjahr heraussticht. Wenn du Filmempfehlungen suchst, aktuelle Kinostarts vergleichen willst oder einfach Spaß an Filmkritik, Hintergrund und Diskussion hast: Diese Episode liefert dir Orientierung – kompakt, verständlich und so spoilerarm wie möglich.

Just when I thought that looking in the mirror was all the Body horror I could take, Chad and Keith do a deep dive into David Cronenberg's VIDEOCROME!!!! Side note, for some reason I always call it 'Video drone'.....but I'm an idiot.. Remember, first it controls your mind. Then it controls your body. Yikes.

In this episode of Face2Face, David Peck sits down with magician, historian, and thinker David Ben for a wide-ranging conversation about curiosity, illusion, and the deeper intellectual life behind magic. At the heart of the discussion is Ben's extraordinary collection, now housed at The Lilly Library at Indiana University, a vast archive spanning more than a century of magical history. Together, they explore magic as a “prism” for understanding the world, touching on ethics, problem-solving, and the power of wonder. This is more than a conversation about magic, it's about how we see, ask questions and make meaning.David Ben was the sole protégé of Ross Bertram (1912-1992), one of the great sleight-of-hand artists of the twentieth century. While studying magic with Bertram, David also graduated from the University of Toronto (BA), the University of Western Ontario (LLB), and the London School of Economics (LLM). He flirted briefly with a career in tax law but abandoned it in 1990 to pursue his passion for performing, writing and community.David is now recognized as one of the world's foremost sleight-of-hand artists. Theatrical works he has developed have been staged at the Shaw Festival, Theatre ROM, the Charlottetown Festival, Soulpepper Theatre, Luminato, the Canadian embassies in Paris and Tokyo, the Smithsonian in Washington, DC, and elsewhere. He has made numerous television appearances and was the subject of the award-winning documentary “A Conjuror in the Making.”David has written several books and has contributed articles and reviews to the Globe and Mail, the Toronto Star, and many other publications. He is the co-founder and artistic director of Magicana, a performing arts organization and registered charity, and he uses learning, practicing, and performing magic to help disadvantaged children, to fight isolation in seniors, and to help unlock creativity, innovation, and problem solving.David also tries whenever possible to give back to the community. In 2016, after losing his wife Jan Howlett to brain cancer in 2013, David raised close to $250,000 by having his signature mop of hair shaved off as part of The Princess Margaret Hospital “No Hair Selfie” campaign.A recipient of the Order of Canada, Ben has been recognized for his outstanding contributions to the performing arts and for preserving the cultural and intellectual heritage and legacy of magic.He lives in Toronto with his partner Jessica Levman, near his children Court and Harrison, and spends his spare time playing the piano, painting, indulging in culinary delights, and acquiring historical Canadian art.For more info on David visit his site here.David Peck is a writer, speaker, and award-winning podcaster who works at the intersection of storytelling, social change, and meaningful dialogue. As the host of Face2Face and former host of Toronto Threads on 640 AM, he has published over 650 in-depth interviews with some of the world's most compelling thinkers, artists and storytellers, including Viggo Mortensen, Sarah Polley, Raoul Peck, Werner Herzog, Chris Hadfield, David Cronenberg, Jason Issacs, Gillian Anderson and Wade Davis. With a background in philosophy and international development, David brings a thoughtful, globally aware perspective to every conversation.He's a published author and experienced keynote speaker, known for creating spaces where complexity is welcomed and ideas come alive.

Writer and critic Robert Rubsam returns to the show to discuss Kiyoshi Kurosawa's enigmatic, unclassifiable thriller Charisma, the story of a failed hotage negotiator torn between factions of scientists, government agents, and madmen all fighting to decide the fate of a very unique tree in a mysterious, nameless forest. It's as strange as it sounds! We discuss Kiyoshi Kurosawa's vision of nature as a dialectical force where harmony and disorder coexist. Then we debate the film's titular tree, Chrisma. Is it malevolent, toxic, or a neutral force weaponized by humankind? Finally, we trace Kurosawa's lineage through filmmakers like David Cronenberg and the great journeyman Richard Fleischer, and how their influence, filtered through his austere style, produces a deeper sense of distance and unease.

On the latest episode of A Life In Movies, the movie interview podcast by All The Right Movies, we're talking to legendary actor James Woods.With a career spanning five decades, James has built a reputation as one of cinema's most compelling performers. An actor drawn to morally complex characters and unafraid to inhabit the darkest corners of human nature. A two-time Academy Award nominee with multiple Emmy wins to his name, his filmography reads like a masterclass in intensity.Speaking to us from Los Angeles, James takes us through the key moments that shaped his remarkable career. From his early days studying Political Science at MIT before the pull of acting proved too strong, to his film debut working with the legendary Elia Kazan. We dive deep into five landmark films: David Cronenberg's prophetic body-horror Videodrome, Sergio Leone's epic Once Upon a Time in America opposite Robert De Niro, Oliver Stone's raw and urgent Salvador (which earned him his first Oscar nomination), the action-comedy The Hard Way with Michael J. Fox, and Martin Scorsese's Casino where he brought the slippery Lester Diamond to unforgettable life.James also shares insights into his approach to those morally ambiguous characters that have become his trademark, his acclaimed television work, the compelling story behind his Executive Producer credit on Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer and his most recent artistic endeavour in music. A fascinating conversation with one of American cinema's most distinctive talents.Connect with ATRM: To join our fantastic community of film fans, support what we do, access our archive, listen to exclusive episodes, and a whole lot more, become an ATRM patron:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join the ATRM Community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ We're available on any podcast platform:Listen on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Listen on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to our channel⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠We're across all major social channels too:Twitter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@ATRightMovies⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@allthe_rightmovies ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our movie group⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bluesky: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@alltherightmovies.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@alltherightmovies⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠alltherightmovies.com⁠⁠
