Uwe Boll is no stranger to controversy. I first heard of him about 20 years ago when he challenged his harshest critics to a boxing match. Well, he's back in everyone's sights with his latest film, Citizen Vigilante, due to it's politically charging nature. Some recent interviews only focused on the politics. Others clearly never saw the movie and just wanted to attack him. However, I wanted to treat Uwe like how I would want to be treated and we just talked. Turns out he's one of the nicest people I interviewed!  Tune in as we discuss German food, bakeries, movies and more. Love him or hate him: Uwe Boll is always entertaining. If you're interested in seeing Citizen Vigilante, it's available to rent on Amazon Prime right now. If you're not doing so already, check out Classic American Movies on  Instagram and check out my written reviews on www.ClassicAmericanMovies.com

This week on ClassHorrorCast, we sit down with filmmaker, writer, adventurer and one of cinema's true originals - Richard Stanley.We begin with a look back at his cult classic Hardware and discuss why its themes feel more relevant today than ever before, before moving into Dust Devil and how the film has continued to find new audiences year after year.From there, we dive headfirst into one of the most infamous stories in movie history. The Island of Dr. Moreau.Richard tells the full story of being hired to direct the film, being fired, the complete chaos that surrounded the production, and the strange aftermath that followed.We also talk about how he feels about the experience today and whether his original vision for the film could still one day be seen.We also explore Richard's work as a writer on films such as The Abandoned and Imago Mortis, his process for writing, and his years spent away from filmmaking before making a remarkable return in 2019 with Color Out of Space starring Nicolas Cage.Bringing things right up to the present day, Richard tells us the unbelievable story of writing the third installment in the Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey franchise and how he ended up playing the role of villain… or hero… Balthazar von Woozle.Outside of film, Richard has spent years pursuing interests that go far beyond cinema.Living in the French Pyrenees, we discuss his fascination with the Holy Grail, Cathar history and the remarkable story behind his 2001 documentary The Secret Glory, which explored the life of Otto Rahn and his strange place in history.We also talk about his recent book Otto Rahn, Grail Hunter.Finally, we touch on projects still waiting to emerge from the shadows and Richard's continued desire to bring his long-held vision of The Dunwich Horror to life.This is a wide-ranging, fascinating and completely unpredictable conversation with one of genre cinema's most unique voices and one you definitely don't want to miss.For more of my content and to grab a copy of my book - CLICK HEREFor more on Richard's work - CLICK HEREBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/class-horror-cast-horror-movie-podcast--4295531/support.

There is a sentiment going around that Akira is mid. Richard Lewis, Thorin, and MonteCristo are here to tell you that the internet is wrong, but also that the people who told you it was a flawless 10 out of 10 masterpiece were wrong too. The truth is more interesting than either side. Akira's animation is a genuine 10 out of 10. Nothing from 1988 looks like this. Almost nothing from 2026 looks like this. The craftsmanship is immaculate, every frame hand-drawn with a fluidity and detail that makes anime produced a decade later look cheap by comparison. The soundtrack is spectacular. The world-building drops you into Neo-Tokyo without a single line of exposition. You don't even hear the word "Akira" for 50 minutes in a movie called Akira. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This is our spoiler-free review of Steven Spielberg's Disclosure Day. We break down the film's classic Spielberg visual style, strong performances, ambitious themes, and the narrative choices that both elevate and frustrate. Plus, we discuss where Disclosure Day ranks among Spielberg's celebrated sci-fi adventures and why, despite its flaws, it still captures that unmistakable sense of wonder only he can deliver. Disclosure Day premieres exclusively in theatres on June 12, 2026. Check out Geekcentric onYouTube | Instagram | Twitter | TikTokJoin the Geekcentric Discord HEREFollow Eatcentric - Same geeks.

This week, we pay tribute to one of the most devastating (and life-affirming) movies ever made. It's our very first Takahata film, and… it's a doozy. We simply couldn't do a Studio Ghibli series without honoring this masterpiece. **Please be aware that this episode includes some distressing themes around children and violence. We tried our best to celebrate the brilliance of the film but inevitably the conversation turned dark at times. Next week, we get a (much-needed) big, fuzzy hug from MY NEIGHBOR TOTORO (1988).

Sweet Smell of Success (1957) is one of the most visually ruthless films Hollywood ever made — and one that doesn't show up in the conversation as often as it should. We dig into James Wong Howe's New York City cinematography, the Burt Lancaster and Tony Curtis dynamic, and what the Library of Congress saw in it when they added it to the National Film Registry.   Since 1989, the National Film Registry has selected 25 films each year that are deemed "culturally, historically or aesthetically significant". In each episode, Mike Natale (Yahoo!) and Tom Lorenzo (Men's Journal) bring on a special guest to take a look at one of the films from the registry, to get to the heart of why these films matter.

Get in, losers, we're going to Laputa! This week we take flight with Pazu, Sheeta, and a gang of pirates with some seriously questionable motives to find the mythical land in the clouds where cool robots take care of birds (and shoot lasers). It's the first true Ghibli film, and, man, does it set the bar pretty high. Also... what the hell is going on with the English dub of this film?

“The Killing Cell” is an awesome found footage film that's been tearing up the festival circuit with awards and nominations! Writer/director/producer and actor Karsen Schovajsa and his crew pulled together a nostalgic horror flick that captures the same eerie energy as “Hell House LLC” and “Grave Encounters.” I was lucky enough to check out a screener, absolutely loved it, and had to bring Karsen onto the podcast to talk all about the making of this soon-to-be cult hit!
