Podcasts about Dick Miller

Four directors remake several classic Twilight Zone episodes, as well adding as their own material. Does it work? Do anthology films work? Can this movie escape the tragedy that occured during production? Is this a movie, or just tv on a big screen? Starring Dan Ackroyd, Albert Brooks, Vic Morrow, Scatman Crothers, Kathleen Quinlan, and John Lithgow. Oh, and Dick Miller. Directed by John Landis, Steven Spielberg, Joe Dante, and George Miller. Written by John Landis, Richard Matheson, Melissa Mathison, George Clayton Johnson, Jerome Bixby, and Rod Serling.

For our second episode in the "Corman Graduates: Jack Hill" series, we talk with director, writer and cinematography, Elle Schneider (THE FOOD THAT BUILT AMERICA, PLEDGE NIGHT: AN INTERVIEW WITH ROGER CORMAN, BLISS BLUE, THAT GUY DICK MILLER), about Jack Hill's MONDO KEYHOLE and PIT STOP.  In addition to being friends with Dick Miller and interviewing Jack Hill and Roger Corman on multiple occasions, she is a huge fan of PIT STOP.  She brings an technical perspective on both of the films that you won't find anywhere else. First, we talk about MONDO KEYHOLE.  We discuss the history and legal challenges with making "Nudie Cuties" and "Roughies" films during the 1960s and how that impacted the distribution of MONDO KEYHOLE.  We talk about how Jack Hill got involved with movie, the unique approach he took to casting and filming the movie and the fact that it had to play in adult theaters upon it's initial release. Next, we dive into fan favorite, PIT STOP - one of Jack Hill's most impressive films.  We talk about the struggle the movie faced trying to get an audience in an era when black and white films were going out of vogue in the drive-in circuit.  We share mutual appreciation for Sid Haig's emotional performance - one that is unique to his filmography.  Finally, we discuss the filming approach by cinematographer, Austin McKinney and the unfortunate rift with Jack Hill.  We even talk a tiny bit about Sorceress. Elle shares stories about Roger Corman including his ambitions to be a studio director and the decision to step away to start New World Pictures. We also spend a little time talking about serial killers, the fallout between Jack Hill and Austin McKinney, and movies with the best scenes featuring Dune Buggies.  Why Dune Buggies?  Because Dune Buggies are awesome. We want to generously thank Elle for being on the podcast and sharing her perspectives on these films.  You can check out her website at http://elleschneider.com and look for her next documentary about educational films.  Maybe she'll cover For Safety's Sake: In the Neighborhood?  Probably not.

Welcome back to the Video Store! Valentine's Day is almost upon us and if you're here looking for movie selections instead of out buying flowers or making dinner reservations, then sir or madam, I salute you. For this week's episode of the show I've picked four movies that feature unconventional relationships. After browsing the stores aisles looking for this week's film recommendations, I ended up rewatching all four of these movies (a couple of which I hadn't seen in decades) and for the most part they have all aged well. Harold and Maude (1971)Harold is a young adult obsessed with death, while Maude is a 79-year-old woman infatuated with life. The two share a hobby in common — attending the funerals of strangers — and soon this odd couple forms a close relationship. Wikipedia describes this film as a “romantic black comedy drama,” which only begins to describe it. It's sweet, it's funny, and it's emotional. While critics originally hated it, the film as gone on to appear in many “best of” film lists. Something Wild (1986)The last person you would expect a New York banker like Charlie to get involved with is a carefree person like Lulu, but after she kidnaps the yuppie for a weekend of reckless fun, Charlie finds the adventure exciting… until things get out of hand. When Lulu's husband discovers what the pair has been up to, he is none too happy. Someone — or perhaps everyone — has been lying. This not-to-miss thriller stars Jeff Daniels as Charlie, Melanie Griffith as Lulu, and a terrifying Ray Liotta has Lulu's husband, Ray. After Hours (1985)Have you ever had one of those days? After work, Paul Hackett heads to a local diner where he meets a woman named Marcy. The two exchange numbers and later, she invites him over to her apartment. This starts off a chain of events that will have Paul running around the streets of New York from one mess to the next. Before the end of the night his face ends up on wanted posters, he's chased by an angry mob, and he becomes involved in a city wide crime ring. It's a night that Paul will never forget — or maybe, survive. Featuring a star-packed cast including Griffin Dunne (An American Werewolf in London), Rosanna Arquette, Linda Fiorentino, Teri Garr, Catherine O'Hara, Bronson Pinchot, Dick Miller, and even Cheech and Chong. Directed by Martin Scorsese.Valley Girl (1983)Randy (Nicholas Cage) is a punk rocker from Hollywood. Julie (Deborah Foreman) is a Valley Girl. Their worlds are complete opposites and it seems that everybody and everything will try and stop them from getting together, but sometimes, love finds a way. This classic 80s film was directed by Martha Coolidge and will take you back to the sights, sounds, and music of the 1980s.Thanks for checking out the podcast. If you don't have plans this Valentine's Day, you can have a great time renting and watching one of these films. And if you would prefer to get out of the house, you can always drop by a stranger's funeral. You never know who you'll meet! This is a public episode.

From a great well-known cast of faces, such as William Sadler, Jada Pinkett, Billy Zane, Dick Miller and Thomas Haden Church to some genuinely spooky great practical effects and world building, Demon Knight really delivers in a way most low-budget horror movies don't.Not to mention, it's probably the only horror movie where a black woman is the final girl, and she saves the world!I never thought I'd say that Billy Zane was the best part of anything.... he chews the scenery like never before or again as The Collector. Maybe he's entranced me into doing this episode? Maybe I'm possessed? What is this green goo?!Mentioned in this episode:From the ArchiveThere's no new episode this week, so I thought you might be interested in revisiting this slightly older, but no less brilliant episode.

This week we have a look at the 1959 horror film A Bucket of Blood.  This is Episode #440! A Bucket of Blood is a 1959 American comedy horror film directed by Roger Corman. It starred Dick Miller and was set in the West Coast beatnik culture of the late 1950s. Written by Charles B. Griffith, the film, produced on a $50,000 budget, is about a dimwitted, impressionable young busboy at a Bohemian café who is acclaimed as a brilliant sculptor when he accidentally kills his landlady's cat and covers its body in clay to hide the evidence. When he is pressured to create similar work, he becomes a serial murderer.A Bucket of Blood was the first of a trio of collaborations between Corman and Griffith in the comedy genre, which include The Little Shop of Horrors (which was shot on the same sets as A Bucket of Blood) and Creature from the Haunted Sea. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/castle-of-horror-podcast--4268760/support.

Not only did A Bucket Of Blood give Dick Miller one of his few starring roles, but it provided a story template (as well as leftover sets and actors) for Little Shop of Horrors a year later. See if this Corman classic still provides laughs and chills today as we walk you through this homage to House of Wax that parodies the beatnik scene at the time.

This week we have a look at the horror film The Little Shop of Horrors.  This is Episode #439! The Little Shop of Horrors is a 1960 American horror comedy film directed by Roger Corman. Written by Charles B. Griffith, the film is a farce about a florist's assistant who cultivates a plant that feeds on human blood. The film stars Jonathan Haze, Jackie Joseph, Mel Welles, and Dick Miller, who had all worked for Corman on previous films. Produced under the title The Passionate People Eater, the film combines dark comedy with farce and incorporates Jewish humor and elements of spoof. The Little Shop of Horrors was shot on a budget of $28,000 (equivalent to $288,000 in 2023). Interiors were shot in two days, by utilizing sets that had been left standing from A Bucket of Blood.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/castle-of-horror-podcast--4268760/support.

This week Lee and Daniel are joined by friend and fellow podcaster Gary Hill to continue the Roger Corman tribute thread. This time they cover two very similar cheapies Corman and writer Charles B. Griffith came up with "A Bucket of Blood" (1959) & "The Little Shop of Horrors" (1960), which are two great examples of doing more with less. The economic film making of the Corman method; the greatness of Dick Miller, and many other things are touched upon. The host also talk about what they've watched as of late.

For the first time in nearly a century, we wake up in the morning to a world without Roger Corman in it. In addition to reshaping the face of American cinema for generations, he also directed a few movies. We spend as much time as we can discussing 1963's X: The Man with the X-Ray Eyes and 1959's A Bucket of Blood before we can hold back no longer and gush about how awesome Dick Miller is.

Jim reminisces about the second "Monster Movie" he ever saw - Roger Corman's 1958 Sci-Fi "War Of The Satellites," starring Dick Miller, Susan Cabot, Richard Devon, Eric Sinclair, Michael Fox, Robert Shayne, Jared Barclay, and John Brinkley. The story centers around man's attempt to explore space while an alien race tries to prevent them from leaving planet Earth.

Lee, Leah and Daniel are continuing the podcast's Corman tribute by covering "The Terror" (1963). Under Corman's watch a lot of future greats had a part in the production of this patched-together gothic horror, starring a fresh-face Jack Nicholson, an elderly Boris Karloff, and "that guy" Dick Miller (who threatens to steal the whole movie at times!). Is it the janky mess all of those old public domain 50 movie DVD packs make us think it was, or did watching a fully restored version surprise the hosts expectations? Did this film somehow inspire a future great film that Nicholson was also the lead in? You're already visiting our decaying old castle by the sea, you might as well stay for a while and find out!

This movie is the perfect all-nighter watch. NYC in the mid 80s'? Please and thank you! And much like the misadventures of Griffin Dunne in this Martin Scorsese masterpiece, After Hours, I just couldn't get this one done. It was a long and winding road that took me at least twice as long as usual. Very apropos. Now that it's done. Let's all relish the absolute monster cast of....Griffin Dunne, Rosanna Arquette, Linda Fiorentino, Teri Garr, Catherine O'hara, John Heard, Dick Miller, Bronson Pinchot, Cheech & Chong, Verna Bloom, Will Patton and all the bit players that round out this movie. 

The Dick Miller-verse is real.LIWstudios.com

David Lynch recently made an announcement, and in typical Lynchian fashion, nothing is as simple as it seems. One thing is for certain: it will be a treat for our eyes and ears. We also talk about one of the strangest musicals we have ever heard of. If you like anime and giant naked men, this may be the news you have been waiting for.When you are going to review a Roger Corman movie, it is hard to decide what to do. There are just so many of them. And his resume is so varied that even the most cursory look involves diving into a deep rabbit hole. So we decided to go with one that starred Jack Nicholson, Boris Karloff, and Dick Miller.Little did we know there was more to The Terror than just a bunch of famous names.After six directors, nine months, and days of filming without an actual script, the movie hit theaters. Unsurprisingly, it is not very good, but how well did its strong cast fare? Corman wanted his own take on Edgar Allen Poe, which he did manage to pull off, but the way he did it will surprise you (or not if you know anything about Corman's methods). Do modern eyes have a different take on The Terror?Over the course of five years and almost three hundred episodes, we have covered all sorts of topics.
