Okay, Hobbitses, it's our last journey through Middle Earth! And Bilbo's first! Dom's back, and so is Peter Jackson, Philippa Boyens, Fran Walsh, Ian McKellan, Andy Serkis, Elijah Wood, and… Radagast the Brown?! Although this is our only episode on the Hobbit trilogy, we're not just covering UNEXPECTED JOURNEY this week. Listen in for some cross examination of the two (troubling) sequels, the many fan edits (especially the one from Maple Films), and Guillermo Del Toro's greatest unmade production. A very special thanks from Dom to all the listeners who reached out with support during his absence. And thanks to Stephen Hilger for pinch hitting! Next week, it's Jackson's final (?) narrative film, MORTAL ENGINES (2018) from director Christian Rivera.

Emil, Erik och Magnus diskuterar den högst bioaktuella SCREAM 7.

This week on the show, we descend into the haunting world of Jacob's Ladder - a film that, on the surface, feels like a straightforward psychological horror about demons, paranoia, and a man losing his grip on reality.But scratch beneath that surface and you'll find something far more profound.What if this isn't just a story about madness… but about death? About grief? About the terrifying space between holding on and letting go?In this episode, we explore the film's deeper themes - the idea of being trapped between life and death, the fear of accepting the inevitable, and how resistance can turn peace into torment.We break down the behind-the-scenes origins of the film, the philosophical concepts that shaped it, and why its message may be one of the most emotionally devastating in horror history.Is it a demonic nightmare? A psychological breakdown? Or something far more spiritual?Sometimes the scariest thing isn't the monster in the shadows - it's the truth waiting at the end.If you enjoyed this - Check out my other content HEREBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/class-horror-cast--4295531/support.

This steampunk fantasy world has everything: dæmons, talking polar bears, Daniel Craig with a snow leopard, and Nicole Kidman in her villain era!  Attempting to replicate the success of THE LORD OF THE RINGS, New Line Cinema tries to kick off a new trilogy by adapting Philip Pullman's The Golden Compass, but it… doesn't quite work out.

In 1995, a film predicted POV recording technology, VR experiences you can buy on the black market, deepfake manipulation, police brutality caught on camera, and a society addicted to experiencing other people's lives through a screen. It starred Ralph Fiennes, Angela Bassett, and was written by James Cameron. Almost nobody saw it.   Strange Days bombed at the box office, nearly destroyed Kathryn Bigelow's career, and has been virtually impossible to find ever since, as right now no streaming service carries it. But everything it warned us about has come true, and somehow the reality is worse than the fiction.   MonteCristo, Thorin, and Richard Lewis make the case for why this is one of the most important sci-fi films ever made. We get into the SQUID tech that directly inspired Cyberpunk 2077's Braindances, the darkest plot device in sci-fi, Ralph Fiennes as the perfect cyberpunk noir anti-hero, Angela Bassett's tragically wasted career as an action star, the Rodney King and OJ parallels baked into the script, and a long conversation about how AI, social media, and surveillance culture have made this film more relevant than ever.   Roger Ebert gave it 4 stars in 1995 and called it a future cult classic. He was right. Again.   Control Body Odor ANYWHERE with Mando and get 20% off + free shipping with promo code FOURPLAY at https://shopmando.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Eine Wüste, endlose Straßen, eine verschwundene Frau und Kurt Russel... mehr braucht ein spannender Film nicht. Und trotz positiver Reputation redet niemand mehr über Breakdown. Kühne und seine heutige MovieVirginAnne Autenrieb vom Kammerflimmern Podcast versuchen in dieser Folge herauszufinden, wie es sein kann, dass der Action Thriller fast gänzlich aus den Köpfen der Menschen verschwunden ist. Ist er zurecht in Vergessenheit geraten? Handelt es sich um einen Geheimtipp oder kam er zur falschen Zeit in die Kinos? Ist der Film heute überhaupt noch zeitgemäß? Viele Fragen und noch mehr Antworten in der neuen Ausgabe der MovieVirgins.

For decades, Australia treated video games differently.Titles were banned. Content was refused classification. Games were edited, delayed, or never released at all. For years, we didn't even have an R18+ category for games — meaning adult players were restricted by a system built for something else entirely.In this episode, we trace the history of video game censorship in Australia — from early classification battles to moral panics, high-profile bans, and the eventual fight for an R rating. What was actually being censored? Who decided? And why were games singled out?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/weird-crap-in-australia--2968350/support.

CW: This episode contains discussion of sexual assault and violence, including abuse of minors, in relation to recent revelations in the Jeffrey Epstein case. Listener discretion advised.   Some Big News Weeks led us to a slightly unwieldy conversation about several topics alongside Joel Schumacher's 1999 thriller 8mm. Written by Se7en scribe Andrew Keving Walker and boasting a rich ensemble cast including Nicolas Cage, Joaquin Phoenix, Catherine Keener, James Gandolfini, and Peter Stormare, the film explores elite depravity, snuff films, and the dark core of the American dream where desperate people's lives become a commodity. We first begin with some thoughts on recent events at the Berlin Film Festival and offer our definitive answer to the question on everyone's lips, "Is cinema political?" Then, we venture into Schumacher's film, a not-very-good grisly crime thriller with some resonant considerations about the brutalization of young women within the machinery of capital. Finally, we share some personal thoughts on the most recent releases from the Epstein Files, what they tell us about the nature of power in the world, and offer up an alternative movie title for those thinking more deeply about the case's reverberations. Get access to all of our premium episodes and bonus content by becoming a Hit Factory Patron for just $5/month.....Our theme song is "Mirror" by Chris Fish.

Deutschland kann kein Genre? Von wegen! Schließlich haben wir mit Sebastian Fitzek einen wahren Meister seines Fachs - zumindest, was die Verkaufzahlen angeht. Über die Qualität seiner literarischen Ergüsse kann man sicherlich geteilter Meinung sein, aber den Erfolg kann man dem Berliner nicht abstreiten. Todesmutig stürzen sich Carlo, Kühne und Jacko in zwei Verflimungen seiner Werk: Abgeschnitten von 2018 und Der Heimweg, der erst letztes Jahr seine Premiere bei Amazon Prime Video feierte. Ob wir uns beim Konsum dieser Prachtstücke auch was abschneiden wollten oder vor lauter sensationeller Twist überhaupt noch nach Hause gefunden haben, könnt Ihr in der neuen Episode hören.

For decades, Australian audiences were told what they could and couldn't watch — often with scissors, black ink, and outright bans. From silent films and imported reels to grindhouse classics and modern cinema, Australia developed a reputation as one of the most restrictive film-censoring countries in the Western world.Join Holly & Matthew as they trace the history of Australian film censorship, from early morality laws and customs seizures to the creation of classification boards and the long fight over violence, sex, and “community standards”.

Was The Matrix the first film to ask whether our reality is manufactured? No! There are huge parallels between Dark City and The Matrix, with both films using some of the same themes, visuals, and even sets. In this episode of Four Play, we dive into Dark City (1998): Alex Proyas' noir-drenched sci-fi cult classic that arrived one year before The Matrix and explored memory, identity, and control in ways that still feel unsettlingly modern. Is Dark City just a forgotten cyberpunk curiosity or is it one of the most important science fiction films of the 1990s?

What happens when you take the legend of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight… and turn it into an 80s fantasy fever dream starring a glitter-covered Sean Connery? In this episode of Nerd Legion, we dive into Sword of the Valiant (1984): one of the strangest fantasy adaptations ever made. Featuring Miles O'Keeffe, Peter Cushing, John Rhys-Davies, and Ronald Lacey, this stacked cast somehow delivers one of the most unintentionally hilarious medieval movies of the decade. From animatronic severed heads… to magical invisibility rings… to unicorn-eating knights… to the worst synth soundtrack we've ever heard.  This movie has everything except a coherent moral. Is it terrible? Absolutely.Is it entertaining? Without question. Let's talk glitter armor, bad fight choreography, Arthurian lore, and why Sean Connery keeps taking fantasy roles he “doesn't understand.” Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Send a textA truck driver who can't stop asking questions, a friend who does the real fighting, and a sorcerer who waited 2,000 years for green eyes—there's a reason Big Trouble in Little China refuses to fade. We dive straight into why this cult classic still sparks debate: the self-aware camp, the electric synths, the rain-soaked neon, and the audacity of casting a swaggering, lovable bumbler as your poster hero.We break down Kurt Russell's Jack Burton as a brilliant misdirect—loud, lost, but weirdly brave—while Wang carries the narrative weight and the martial arts grace. That inversion lets John Carpenter poke holes in the American hero myth without losing the popcorn thrills. From practical monsters and the iconic knife throw to uneven but ambitious fight staging, we pull apart the craft that makes the movie sing. And yes, we talk about the moments that age poorly—forced flirtations, accented English used among Chinese characters—and how the satire lands alongside the stereotypes.Carpenter's fingerprints are everywhere: the synth-driven score that snaps scenes into focus, the pulpy color palette that turns Chinatown into a fever dream, and the long partnership with Russell that keeps risk-taking fun. We trace cultural ripples into 90s pop culture, Mortal Kombat parallels, and why this film bombed before becoming midnight-movie royalty. Two of us call it pure five-star joy; one of us gives it a thoughtful seven, intrigued enough to chase The Thing next. Whether you rewatch for the set design, the one-liners, or that thunder-lit ceiling shot, there's big charm in this little slice of cinematic chaos.Hit play, ride with the Pork Chop Express, and tell us: is Jack Burton a hero, a decoy, or the perfect mix of both?

In this episode of ClassHorrorCast, we dive deep into Together (2025) - one of the most unsettling relationship horror films of the year.From its visceral practical effects and shocking moments of gore to its suffocating atmosphere and uncomfortable intimacy, we break down the scenes that hit hardest and why they work.This is a full spoiler discussion. But beyond the body horror, Together asks a more disturbing question: what does it really mean to spend your life with someone?At what point does partnership become possession? When does “us” begin to erase “me”? We explore the film's central themes of identity, co-dependence, emotional fusion, and the fear of losing yourself inside a relationship.Is this a love story twisted into horror or was it always horror to begin with?We also dig into behind-the-scenes trivia, the creative choices behind the film's effects, and whether Together ultimately succeeds in what it sets out to do.Join us as we unpack one of 2025's most uncomfortable cinematic experiences.For more content - CLICK HEREBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/class-horror-cast--4295531/support.

Send us a textOn this episode of Movies Worth Seeing, we take on One Battle After Another — and fair warning, this one did not survive the review.We went in open-minded, ready to meet the film where it was… but what we got was a bloated, self-serious experience that mistakes noise for meaning and ambition for depth. Instead of tension, momentum, or emotional payoff, the film delivers repetition, confusion, and a whole lot of wheel-spinning.In this episode, we break down:Why the movie feels exhausting rather than grippingHow “important” themes are hinted at but never exploredThe lack of payoff after all that buildupWhere the storytelling completely loses the audienceAnd why ambition alone doesn't make a movie worth your timeThis isn't a hate-watch for the sake of it — it's an honest conversation about why some films just don't work, no matter how hard they try to look meaningful.

Send us a textThis week on Movies Worth Seeing, we crank the dial back to peak '80s insanity with The Running Man — and honestly, this movie rules.What looks like a dumb, muscle-bound action flick is actually a viciously funny, cynical satire wrapped in neon spandex and one-liners. Game shows, fake news, manufactured villains, and entertainment built on public humiliation — somehow this film feels more relevant now than it did in 1987.We break down:Why this is one of Arnold Schwarzenegger's most underrated rolesHow the movie balances brutal action with sharp social commentaryThe outrageous villains, practical effects, and iconic killsJesse Ventura, Richard Dawson, and a supporting cast having an absolute blastAnd why The Running Man is pure rewatchable fun that still hits todayIt's loud, ridiculous, politically incorrect, and unapologetically entertaining — exactly what great '80s cinema should be.

Send us a textTwo of us walk out emotionally numb from The Running Man remake after a marathon of twists, a muddled motive, and a game with broken rules. We compare it to the 1987 original to show how tone, stakes, and satire were stripped away while talent was wasted.• why changing Ben Richards' motive breaks the story• tone clash between campy 80s satire and modern grit• hunters with no identity versus iconic stalkers• villain split that dilutes menace and focus• worldbuilding that expands scope but kills logic• media manipulation then and now, without the sting• rule changes that patch holes instead of creating tension• wasted performances from a strong cast• why simple, bounded game design creates better stakes• final ratings and what remakes should keepPlease give us a like, share, and subscribe for more reviews like this Support the show

Send us a textThis week on Movies Worth Seeing, we go back to the jungle for one of the most rewatchable action films of all time: Predator.What starts as a macho '80s commando fantasy slowly mutates into a razor-sharp sci-fi survival horror — and that's exactly why Predator still slaps nearly 40 years later. We break down how the film cleverly subverts the invincible action-hero trope, why the ensemble cast is stacked with pure testosterone, and how the Predator itself became one of cinema's most iconic monsters.We also dig into:Why the first half feels like a different movie (on purpose)Arnold Schwarzenegger's quiet evolution from gun-blazing leader to hunted survivorThe brilliance of the creature design, sound design, and jungle settingIconic lines, scenes, and memes that refuse to dieAnd whether Predator is secretly smarter than it ever gets credit forIf you love practical effects, quotable dialogue, and films that reward repeat viewings, this one absolutely earns its place on the list.

Julian, Madeline, and Emilio continue their cycle of Oscar-Worthy Rom-Coms with a Suggestion Box episode focusing on "The Apartment," Billy Wilder's unforgettable multi-Oscar-winning film from 1960. The trio dig into this classic tale of work-related romance by discussing its iconic performances from Jack Lemmon, Shirley MacLaine, and Fred MacMurray, the dynamics of the love triangle it portrays, and how the film's transgressive qualities stand the test of time. Anchoring the conversation are a slew of favorable comparisons to other films, new and old, along with appreciations of film's fine-tuned aesthetic details and a tally of a word Wilder and co-writer I.A.L. Diamond clearly relished in, suffix-wise...If you enjoy our podcast, please rate and review us on your podcast platform of choice.

For decades, Australian audiences were told what they could and couldn't watch — often with scissors, black ink, and outright bans. From silent films and imported reels to grindhouse classics and modern cinema, Australia developed a reputation as one of the most restrictive film-censoring countries in the Western world.Join Holly & Matthew as they trace the history of Australian film censorship, from early morality laws and customs seizures to the creation of classification boards and the long fight over violence, sex, and “community standards”. Along the way, we'll examine infamous bans, bizarre edits, and the cultural anxieties that shaped what Australians were allowed to see on screen.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/weird-crap-in-australia--2968350/support.

David Cronenberg's Naked Lunch is not an adaptation: it's a psychological autopsy. In this episode of Four Play, we dive deep into one of the most challenging films ever released by a major director: Cronenberg's surreal, disturbing, and deeply personal interpretation of William S. Burroughs' life and work. Rather than translating Burroughs' famously “unfilmable” novel to the screen, Naked Lunch fuses biography, addiction, sexuality, guilt, and creativity into a dream-logic nightmare that feels closer to a hallucination than a movie. Control Body Odor ANYWHERE with Mando and get 20% off + free shipping with promo code FOURPLAY at https://shopmando.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Few video game adaptations truly understand the source material — Silent Hill (2006) is one of the rare exceptions.This week on ClassHorrorCast, we descend into the fog to explore why Christophe Gans' Silent Hill has not only endured, but evolved into the gold standard for video game horror adaptations.We break down the film's deep lore, hidden meanings, and symbolic imagery, unpacking how the movie translates the unsettling psychology and atmosphere of the games to the big screen.We dig into the film's pre-production, the writing process, and the major creative choices that reshaped the games' narrative for cinema including what was changed, what was preserved, and why those decisions ultimately worked.From its commitment to practical effects and creature design to its oppressive soundscape and world-building, we examine how Silent Hill achieved an authenticity most adaptations never attempt. Finally, we discuss why the film has aged so well, how its reputation has grown over time, and why it continues to be cited as the strongest argument for the greatest video game adaptation of all time.Turn up the volume.
