Podcasts about Genre Films

Randy and Bob checked into the Overlook Film Festival this year... perhaps they've always been there? It comes as no surprise one of the best genre festivals of the past decade lined up over 40 fantastic horror and sci-fi films. In addition, they threw some amazing parties, hosted panels, Q&A's, immersive games, trivia, and anniversary screenings.  On this special episode... Tune in for spoiler free reviews of Drop, Dead Lover, Ick, Ash, Good Boy, Abraham's Boys, Clown in a Cornfield, It Ends, Frewaka, and more!   Connect with us: Support us on Patreon Website Facebook Instagram Twitter YouTube Shop

Samara Weaving (Ready or Not, Scream VI, The Babysitter) and her husband, writer-director Jimmy Warden (Cocaine Bear, The Babysitter: Killer Queen), sit down with us to talk all things Borderline—a darkly twisted thriller about fame, obsession, and dangerous attraction. Samara stars as Sofia, a former ‘90s pop star trapped in a psychological game with an unhinged fan (Ray Nicholson), and Jimmy pulls back the curtain on making his feature directorial debut alongside his wife.We dive into the film's wild creative process, Samara's electric chemistry with Ray, and what it was like directing a film that blurs the line between love and madness. Plus, they share a hilarious (and slightly eerie) real-life story about being followed home—eerily fitting for Borderline's themes.Beyond the film, we talk The Babysitter, Cocaine Bear, and Samara's rise as a modern scream queen. And yes, we ask about Ready or Not 2—how could we not?Follow Us on Social Media:Instagram & Threads: @mostlyhorrorpodTikTok & Twitter/X: @mostlyhorrorSteve: @stevenisaverage on all socialsSean: @hypocrite.ink on IG/TikTok, @hypocriteink on Twitter/XEnjoy this episode?

Die Berlinale, auf der sein Horrorthriller Welcome Home Baby die Sektion Panorama eröffnet, hat Regisseur Andreas Porchaska noch in guter Erinnerung. Vor 16 Jahren präsentierter er hier die Romanverfilmung Das finstere Tal, einer düsteren Saga zwischen Heimatfilm und Horror. Diese nur scheinbar gegensätzlichen Genres vereint auch sein jüngstes Werk, mit dem er nach zahlreichen Fernsehprojekten zum Kino zurückkehrte. Am Folgetaag der Premiere nahm sich der österreichische Filmemacher Zeit für ein Gespräch mit Lidanoir über unheimliche Dörfer, österreichische Düsterkeit und die Faszination des Genrefilms.

“Genesis 23-24” from Faith Over Fear by Aaron Hulbert. Track 11. Genre: Film. The post Faith Over Fear: Genesis 23-24 appeared first on CALVARY BIBLE CHURCH.

In the second hour of "Connections with Evan Dawson" on Nov. 1, 2024, guest host Scott Pukos and his guests explain what a genre film is and preview the upcoming Anomaly film festival.

"Deep Blue Sea" ist ein unterhaltsamer und actionreicher Hai-Thriller, der vor allem durch seine spektakulären Spezialeffekte und rasante Inszenierung punktet, wenn man mal von den (aus heutiger Sicht) eher mittelmäßigen CGI-Effekten absieht. Der Film liefert packende Spannung, wenn genmanipulierte Haie die Kontrolle in einer Unterwasserforschungsstation übernehmen und die Protagonisten ums Überleben kämpfen müssen. Zwar bietet der Film wenig Tiefgang in Bezug auf Charakterentwicklung oder Story, aber er gleicht dies mit seiner adrenalintreibenden Atmosphäre gut aus. Insgesamt ist "Deep Blue Sea" ein spaßiger und kurzweiliger Genre-Film, der genau das liefert, was man von einem Hai-Horror erwartet. Ich habe heute das erste mal das Vergnügen mit Benny zu sprechen, mit dem ich viel Spaß hatte. Checkt auch gerne Bennys YouTube-Kanal aus, er freut sich bestimmt über ein par Besucher, besonders Alien-Fans kommen hier auf ihre Kosten: XenomaniaGermany

Ihr könnt aktuell im Kino einen wirklich guten Western sehen… und zwar The Dead Don't Hurt von und mit Viggo Mortensen. Horizon, von und mit Kevin Costner dagegen, ist zwar eine gute Stunde länger, findet aber trotzdem kein echtes Ende und zieht als Genre-Film in gleichem zeitlichen Kontext in jeder Hinsicht den Kürzeren. Ob, in welcher Form und wie umfangreich die eigentlich fest geplanten Nachfolger erscheinen werden, hängt aktuell noch in der Schwebe. Daniel findet in Die Letzte Filmkritik aber sowieso, aus dem Projekt hätte gleich von Beginn eine Streaming-Serie gemacht werden sollen.

Bioshock is one of the greatest games of all time. It is not just a one off either as it has two impressive sequels. The stories tackle individuality, class, race, and a myriad of themes in a world filled with 1950s art deco and futuristic technology. They are the definition of “must play” video games.How we overlooked that an adaption is coming to Netflix is beyond us. But we did see the news that the budget has been lowered for it. Will this negatively impact a story filled with awesome powers and robot-like monstrosities? Or is this an opportunity to focus on the amazing story and characters?In a Violent Nature is one of the most exciting and fun slashers to come out in years. It has been a hit with audiences so it comes as no surprise that a sequel has already been announced. Is it too soon or is this the next big horror franchise?We do things slightly differently this week as we look at three films. Our first one is a short that recently made its world premiere at the Fantasia Film Festival. It is also our first entry in our look at sex in genre film. Dirty Bad Wrong is a look at the past and possible future of how we look at sex workers. It is also a tense watch with an uncomfortable climax and thought provoking ending.Before getting hot and heavy, we wanted to dip our toes into sex and horror. We start by entering the modern dating world in The Dead Thing. The plot revolves around a woman whose life is consumed by work, dating apps, and shallow hookups. Until she meets a man who wins her over. But when he ghosts her, it leads to a dangerous obsession.Los Angeles has been the setting for a myriad of movies over the decades. We talk about how this film is different and how it adds to the plot. The direction also combines noir and eroticism in a stylish mix. And while the story does not reinvent the wheel, it does touch on some powerful themes and one of us thought it had an all but perfect ending.It is almost a shame how little The Dead Thing does with its characters, however. Blu Hunt does a fine job in the lead role, but she is given little to work with. There is little in the way of development and if you end up caring about her at all it probably will not be in a positive way. The object of her affections does not give the audience anything to work with. Why is any of this happening? And if I do not know why, how can I care?We step away from sex and close the show with Cuckoo. Intentionally choosing style over substance, Director Tillman Singer crafts an atmospheric tale that is creepy while explaining little. A great performance from Euphoria's Hunter Shafer pair with Dan Stevens in an over the top role are highlights. But are they enough to make up for a plot that has plenty of questions but no answers?

In this episode of the VIFF Podcast, filmmaker Zarrar Kahn talks about his debut feature film, In Flames, with VIFF Director of Programming Curtis Woloschuk. In Flames, which premiered at Cannes 2023 and screened at VIFF 2023, follows a mother and daughter navigating loss and supernatural forces in Karachi, Pakistan. After the death of the family patriarch, a mother and daughter's precarious existence is ripped apart. They must find strength in each other if they are to survive the malevolent forces that threaten to engulf them.This conversation was recorded remotely.This podcast is brought to you by the Vancouver International Film Festival.Presented on the traditional and unceded territory of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) nations.

In den letzten Jahren haben wir in der Filmkritik oft über Rassismus gesprochen. Sowohl, wenn es um die Handlungen von Filmen ging, als auch um Castingentscheidungen, Awardnominierungen und das generelle Thema, wer eigentlich wie repräsentiert sein sollte. In der Filmwissenschaft allerdings wird immer noch recht wenig zu Rassismus geforscht. Um auf diesen blinden Fleck aufmerksam zu machen und aufzuzeigen, warum man nicht bei Repräsentationsfragen stehen bleiben sollte, haben Alena Strohmeier und Ömer Alkin ein neues Buch herausgegeben. In "Rassismus im Film" (Schüren-Verlag, PDF ist frei verfügbar) versammeln sie Beiträge, die das Thema neu beleuchten. Es geht um rassistische Klischees im Genre-Film, Blackfacing, Nekropolitik, anti-muslimischen Rassismus, das deutsch-türkische Kino und vieles mehr. In dieser Folge spricht Christian mit Ihnen über ihre Forschung und das Buch. Shoutouts: Brigherton, Was von der Liebe bleibt, Es brennt

Actor, director, and writer Megan Rosati was not a child vampire. But from first watch, she so identified with Eli, the 12-year-old vampire in LET THE RIGHT ONE IN, the modern horror classic from Sweden, that she would show the film to people to help them understand her. In this episode, she and Jordan dig into the ways we can feel like we're different -- especially in adolescence -- and the power of genre films to make a statement.Then Jordan has a quick thing about the late, great Scott Wampler and the impact of his work.To support or learn more about THE VANITY, go to Seed&SparkTikTok @thevanityiswatchingInstagram @thevanityfilmTwitter @thevanityfilm***With Jordan Crucchiola and Megan Rosati

SHOW NOTES: Grab your popcorn, take a sledgehammer to your 80s Pan N'Scan VHS (Disclaimer: Casual Trek endorses Physical Media, just, just not Pan N'Scan) and climb into your favourite beep-chair as Casual Trek goes to the movies In Search of Spock for Star Trek III: The Search for Spock! But, we have a little B-Feature before we hit our A-Picture and so we're also covering the other time a member of the Enterprise stole the Enterprise because the needs of the one, outweighed the needs of the many, ‘The Menagerie,' a clever way to reuse the unaired pilot of Star Trek- ‘The Cage' (See Episode 1 of this show) or a clever way to scrimp on some gold-pressed latinum for a series that was more expensive than it looked. Then, we go all in on ‘The Search for Spock,' as the Casual Trek crew won't stop raving about Christopher Lloyd's turn as a baddie. The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, but sometimes, the needs of the few is to be rated and reviewed on all good podcatchers and apps! CONTENT WARNING: We talk about some very ableist tropes from a piece of 60s television. Episodes talked about: ‘The Menagerie' (12:22) and ‘Star Trek III: The Search for Spock,' (49:03) Miles pimps his latest appearance on ‘Breakfast in the Ruins,' Taskmaster, DragonBall, 2000ad and the Judge Dredd movies, Miles talks about Dan Dare, The Rolling Stones, Zager & Evans, our crew talk about attending our first gigs, Did Spock just kill a guy? How ‘The Cage' completely rewrites the message and meaning of ‘The Cage,' 60s ableism, Pike's gloopy make-up job, how Star Trek: Strange New Worlds has made ‘The Cage' REALLY weird, Tendii from Lower Decks would not be happy with the portrayal of Orions, Duran Duran (Wild Boys) Some of the many, many, many classic Genre Films of 1984 (and Miles didn't even mention the film adaptation of 1984 which came out that same year), oh, and also Repo Man. Despite his love of ‘Buckaroo Banzai,' you see Miles remember in real time that Christopher Lloyd also appears in that film. Casual Trek does not advocate underage drinking, but at least try for better than white wine. PAN AND SCAN IS THE DEVIL. Ponn Farr, David's death, Shatner CAN act, Utopia still needs dive bars, Bones has a Top-Five Dive Bar list, the Bones/Spock fusion, Mr. Adventure is dead now, he died in the cupboard, words Miles never thought he would ever say on this show ‘Pallette-Swapped Adric,' Kruge is a great villain, we're just going to talk about him a lot, better Magnificent Seven in Space films than ‘Rebel Moon.' James Horner, Does Spock's Return cheapen death? Miles confuses lighting with colour, What do Christopher Lloyd and Patrick Troughton have in common?

https://letterboxd.com/needsintro/ In this episode, Victor delves into the world of cinema, discussing his recent exploration of the original 'Roadhouse' film and the new reboot starring Jake Gyllenhaal, directed by Doug Lyman. He shares his thoughts on the remake's modernized elements, compares it to the original, and highlights the contrast in themes, fight scenes, and performances. Victor also reflects on the broader context of 'Roadhouse's' cult classic status amidst other significant 1989 films, offering insights into what makes a movie memorable. The episode includes a detailed breakdown of both 'Roadhouse' films, complemented by recommendations for films that blend action, comedy, and unintentional camp, akin to the pleasures offered by the 'Roadhouse' saga. 00:00 Welcome to the Show: A Dive into the Ghostbusters Franchise and More 00:40 Letterboxd Shoutout and Social Engagement 01:10 Deep Dive into the Original Roadhouse: A First-Time Viewing 01:58 Exploring the Cultural Impact and Box Office of Roadhouse 03:21 The Unintentional Comedy and Camp of Roadhouse 07:45 The Awkward and Amusing Aspects of Roadhouse 22:28 Recommendations: Films with a Similar Vibe to Roadhouse 31:24 Schwarzenegger's Last Huge Hit & Cult Classics 32:06 Exploring Lockout: A Space Jail Adventure 33:40 Streaming Recommendations & Roadhouse Revisits 34:36 Deep Dive into Doug Liman's Career 37:11 Reviewing the New Roadhouse: A Gritty Reimagining 39:16 The Darker Tones and Action Sequences of Roadhouse 42:16 Character Dynamics and the Shift in Tone 56:22 Concluding Thoughts on Roadhouse and Genre Films

Making an independent film is a miracle in and of itself. That said, it's only the first part of the process.

On this episode, Andrew chats with American filmmaker Lola Blanc about her new short film Pruning. This creepy flick follows a Fox News adjacent political commentator, played by Madeline Brewer, who finds herself in a moral conflict when a mass shooter cites her as an influence for their actions. Over fifteen minutes, Lola Blanc forces viewers to question the morality of those who spout reactionary and inflammatory comments in the media, all the while trying to distance themselves from the violence that is inspired by their words. In this interview, recorded ahead of Pruning's International Premiere at the Fantasia Film Festival, Lola talks about creating the main character with Madeleine, where her interest in exploring the fractured mindset that emerges from these kinds of fringe voices comes from, and then around the halfway mark we head into spoiler territory as Lola talks about some of the more fantastical and unsettling elements of Pruning. Aside from being a filmmaker, Lola is also an accomplished musician and has a successful podcast called Trust Me. Find out more about Lola's work by visiting LolaBlanc.com.

From his early films like The Roost (2005) and Trigger Man (2007), to  his work with other bootstrappy filmmakers on the original V/H/S anthology, to this year's double  -- no, make that triple! -- feature of X, Pearl, and soon MaXXXine, director Ti West has been a distinctive voice in the genre cinema landscape.  So how perfect that he felt seen -- and inspired -- by another unique cinema voice, Peter Jackson. Jackson's first film, Bad Taste (1987), saw him play multiple roles both behind and in front of the camera. It proved to a young Ti West that if you want to make a movie badly enough, you can always go ahead  and do it yourself.Then, Jordan has one quick thing about Jennifer Lopez's next big (fictional) wedding.Additional reading:More about Glass Eye PixMore about V/H/S ***with Jordan Crucchiola and Ti West
