The analysis and evaluation of films
POPULARITY
It's that time of year once again! It comes every year! SPOOKY PENIS MONTH! And we're hitting it hard with a "classic" in the form of John Irvin's GHOST STORY! I don't want to diminish it; it is a classic. It has some memorable moments and a scene that we uncover that we got very excited about. The way it's put together and how it's presented really make it. But other than that, it's about a bunch of rich old men having nightmares after some supremely abhorrent behavior in their youth haunts them and irritates their spouses, and that's about it. Anyway, let's ring in the festivities with our first installment of the season!
In this episode, Bill and Chris delve into the film 'Coherence', exploring its intricate themes of alternate realities and character dynamics set against the backdrop of a dinner party. They discuss the film's unique storytelling approach, including its use of improvised dialogue and low-budget production, which contribute to its authenticity and emotional impact. The conversation highlights the characters' struggles with identity and reality, culminating in a thought-provoking analysis of the film's ending and its implications for viewers. In this episode, Chris and Bill delve into their film recommendations, focusing on the intricacies of 'The Black Room' (1982). They discuss the film's unique take on horror and its narrative structure, while also reflecting on the performances and thematic elements. The conversation transitions into a broader analysis of film-making techniques and the evolution of genre films, culminating in their final thoughts on the film's impact and their anticipation for upcoming releases.

"No fear. Like Tom f---ing Cruise." One Battle After Another is Paul Thomas Anderson like you've never seen him before. Gripping you from the first second of its barnburner opening montage, Anderson synthesizes his typical mastery of emotional stakes with the very unexpected: action chops. We discuss his love for Terminator 2, another all-timer Leonardo DiCaprio performance, and the star turn of one Chase Infiniti. Even middle-of-the-road PTA is good enough for a spot in the best of the decade. Hell, make it two decades.

Today, Sean and Sarah welcome Author, YouTuber, Journalist, Speaker, Podcaster, Film Critic and Baptist Minister, Peter Laws to discuss his upcoming book 'The Frighteners: Why We Love Monsters, Ghosts, Death and Gore'. The book will be published on 9th October 2025. 'The Frighteners' finds Peter on a paranormal pilgrimage to seek out what is it that draws people to both the dark and macabre, but also to the light and faith.With a healthy dose of dark-humour including threatening a zombie in a wheelchair with a shotgun, enticing a werewolf with peppered steaks from a Sainsbury's Local, to a festival which Peter described as a sort-of meta-physical Come Dine With Me, this thought-provoking book is one not to be missed. When I say thought-provoking, mainly death if we're honest but we'll get into that.As the book blurb proclaims: 'Grab your crucifixes, pack the silver bullets, and join the Sinister Minister on his romp into our morbid curiosities!'Sean, Sarah and Peter share their own ghost 'experiences'.Guest Links:-Peter Laws Website: https://www.peterlaws.co.uk/-Into The Fog with Peter Laws: https://www.youtube.com/@IntoTheFog-Creepy Cove Community Church Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/3238cjOfCXGgXHI3SKI4ka-Uncanny: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0010x7cAcknowledgments: Thank You To Peter, Elle-Jay from Icon Books and Paul Bavill from the 'History Rage' podcast.Chapters:0:08 Welcome to Review It Yourself1:06 Literary Exploration of the Macabre2:25 Introducing Pleasure a.k.a.

Find the 9 Points Rating System here: https://www.alostplot.com/9-points/ In this episode, the hosts delve into the 1982 film Tron, exploring its themes, character dynamics, and the portrayal of its villain, the Master Control Program. They discuss initial impressions, the nostalgic value of the film, and how the character of Flynn embodies the cocky protagonist trope prevalent in 80s cinema. The conversation highlights the film's age, its simplistic plot, and the lack of character development, particularly for the villain, which ultimately affects the audience's engagement with the story. They explore the film's visuals and its believability, considering the cultural impact and nostalgia surrounding it. The climax and conclusion of the film are analyzed, leading to a discussion on its lasting legacy and the future of the Tron franchise.----------Highlights:0:00 ‘Tron' Introduction6:15 Opening Scene10:35 Flynn22:11 The Master Control Program (MCP)33:03 Graphics and Critical Reception of the 80s47:27 The Climax and Conclusion53:21 Lasting Impact#tron #disney #jeffbridges #tronfilm #alostplot #film #filmthoughts #thegrid #podcast #characterdevelopment #tronseries #ram #flynn

Akira Kurosawa at the height of his power or Spike Lee's late style curio? We talk about aging masters, baffling scores, and Lee's storied oeuvre as a whole.

Keeping secrets...In the shadows... Or something more descriptive/funny/entertaining, etc. This film is the very definition of "twisty-turny", full of characters waiting to double-cross or double-cross those double-crossers. Maybe the twistiest, turniest film we've ever covered. More so than WILD THINGS. A very serious film about the Dutch Resistance fighters during the Second World War made by Paul Verhoeven.BLACK BOOK marked his departure from Hollywood and a return to Holland since making THE FOURTH MAN. This is a very accomplished film by a very accomplished filmmaker and is well worth a watch or two to get all the little details he put in there. Sit back and strap in for a 2.5-hour ride (don't worry, this episode is only 50 minutes).

The gang take a tour of Tromaville this week as they review the cult classic anti-super hero movie, The Toxic Avenger.

Send us a textSquid Game Season 3 on Netflix brings the brutal saga to a close with a sharp edge and emotional gravity. This final chapter sees Seong Gi-hun return not as a player, but as a man with a mission—to dismantle the twisted machinery behind the games. Across six tightly wound episodes, the show doubles down on moral ambiguity, betrayal, and the human cost of survival. Familiar faces resurface, past wounds are torn open, and justice becomes a blood-stained pursuit. It's not just about who survives anymore—it's about who can live with what they've done. The ending doesn't just tie up loose ends; it leaves scars—on characters and viewers alike.But Squid Game was always bigger than its plot. It reshaped global entertainment, proving that a Korean-language series could dominate the world's screens and spark global conversations about inequality, desperation, and the price of choice. Its legacy is etched not just in ratings or awards, but in culture—those green tracksuits, the haunting music, the symbolism of every game. Season 3 may mark the end of the story, but Squid Game's impact will echo for years. It didn't just go out with a bang—it signed off in blood and ink, sealing its place as one of the most daring and influential shows of our time.Remember to click on the link in the show for your 30 Day Free Audible Trial and help support DMR in the process!

Well, it was high time we take a bite out of the second Jurassic Park movie of the 90s. Widely known as a far inferior sequel, (and they're right) but it was directed by Spielberg so how bad could it be? Me and Charles take the opportunity to tell you exactly how bad and just all the many reasons this was doomed from the start. There is no better co-host than Charles to talk about the films that electrified him as a youth seeing them multiple times in the theater. We talk the MANY differences from the novel to the screen, just how weird the whole daughter storyline was, and just why it fell apart as soon as they got off that island.---Get BONUS episodes on 90s TV and culture (Freaks & Geeks, My So Called Life, Buffy, 90s culture documentaries, and more...) and to support the show join the Patreon!
