If you've been snowed in thanks to last week's winter storm, you're not alone. The entire parking lot of our Video Store is covered with three feet of snow. I've been stuck here for three days, living off of popcorn, Hot Tamales candy, and Red Bull. You and I are not the only ones completely snowed in — so were the characters in these films. I say “were” because not everyone makes it to the end of their respective films. In fact, almost no one does. Warm up the cocoa, turn on the fireplace, and enjoy these four films in which people got snowed in.Snowbeast (1977)The Colorado ski resort in this film has everything guests could ever want, and one thing they don't want: a murderous Yeti. With a plot that closely mirrors Jaws, guests and locals do their best to warn others of the two-legged beast while the owners of the resort do their best to downplay the danger. Once the bodies start piling up there's nothing left to do but to track down the Snowbeast… before it tracks them down! Sure, this is basically Jaws with a killer Yeti instead of a killer shark, which is exactly why I love it.Screams of a Winter Night (1979)If you're a sucker for horror anthology films, this one's a slow 70s burn with more atmosphere than blood. When a group of young adults become snowed in while staying in a winter cabin, they exchange stories — three, to be exact — in an attempt to entertain (and more importantly, scare) their friends. It's all fun and games until the Native American spirit known as Shataba arrives at the cabin. This deep cut is worth a watch for fans of anthology films and brooding 70s horror.Terror Train (1980)It's New Year's Eve and a group of college graduates are throwing a costume party on a train. Everyone's there — the graduates, David Copperfield (no, really), and Kenny, a former classmate whom the group pranked years ago, leaving him in an apparently bad state of mind. Fresh out of Halloween, it's up to Jamie Lee Curtis, her friends, the train's conductor and yes, David Copperfield, to put an end to Kenny's rage-filled rampage. But which costume is Kenny wearing? Only his victims know for sure. Come for the magic show, stay to see the audience disappear one by one.Iced (1989)If we've learned anything from 1980s slasher films it's to politely decline anonymous invitations to stay at a cabin or resort for free. The characters of Iced learn that lesson the hard way. Four years after the group's friend Jeff skied over the side of a cliff after being humiliated by his friends, the group find receive anonymous invitations to stay at the Snow Peak ski resort. Once they arrive it seems Jeff may be there too, based on the number of bodies that begin piling up. Featuring all the classic misdirection and creative deaths we came to expect from an 80s slasher film.The snow is starting to melt in the parking lot. Soon, all this white stuff will be a memory but these films will stick with you for years to come. You may actually need therapy to forget them. Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

Jamie Lee Curtis shared top billing with Ahhhnold in 1994's mega hit, True Lies. Made for a then record-breaking budget for over $100 million, the movie featured Schwarzenegger and Curtis outrunning explosions, machine gunfire, and Tia Carrere. But now, over thirty years later, was it money well spent? Is 6-foot-2 Arnold the best choice for an under-the-radar spy? And where's the line between women in peril and just plain misogyny?

The horror side of the podcast kicks off with a film that put Jamie Lee Curtis on the map. She owes her entire career to this one single epic movie that is beloved by all. Halloween? pfft boring. Trading Places? SNORE. No way. I'm talking about the Oscar winning treasure from 1999: Virus. Wait, what? You've never heard of this movie? Well, you're in for a treat especially if your favorite kind of treat is a chocolate covered banana slug. Friends, this movie is bad, but Charlie and Pete ended up enjoying the heck out of its "badness." We definitely knocked it out of the park with this first horror episode of 2026.
I discuss and review the 1980 John Carpenter film starring Jamie Lee Curtis, Adrienne Barbeau and Hal Holbrook. 3/5

What happens when life changes your body, your identity, and your sense of safety overnight?In this powerful conversation, I'm joined by John Kippen: Entrepreneur, professional magician, speaker, and resilience coach, who shares his extraordinary journey of self-acceptance after adversity.After surviving brain tumor surgery that left him with permanent facial paralysis, John spent over a decade in hiding. What ultimately brought him back wasn't “fixing” himself—but reclaiming joy, breath, creativity, and the courage to live his own dream.In this episode, we explore:How self-acceptance becomes a nervous-system practice—not a mindset shiftWhy doing what you love is often the most healing thing you can doHow breath anchors safety when life feels overwhelmingWhat it means to stop waiting to be “whole” before livingWhy adversity can become an unexpected initiation into purposeThe power of daily presence, compassion, and creative expressionJohn also shares incredible moments from performing magic for Alex Trebek to being featured in a documentary with Jamie Lee Curtis, and how those experiences reinforced a deeper truth:Being different isn't something to overcome. It's something to honor.This conversation is a reminder that healing doesn't mean returning to who you were.Sometimes, it means finally becoming who you are.Connect with John:https://kippencoaching.comConnect with Kelly:drkellykessler.comFree Guide: Sacred Boundaries: http://drkellykessler.com/sacredboundariesSelf-Respect Reset is a guided, body-based experience for women who struggle to set boundaries—not because they don't know what they need, but because it hasn't felt safe to honor it.Inside, you'll learn how to rebuild inner safety, strengthen self-trust, and create boundaries that actually protect your peace—without guilt, over-explaining, or self-abandonment.
Remember Trading Places (1983), starring Eddie Murphy, Dan Aykroyd, and Jamie Lee Curtis? We had practically forgotten all about this early-'80s comedy, but even the trailer promises a whole lot of political incorrectness, and we couldn't be more excited. We remember it being hilarious, but has time been kind to this comical social commentary, or has it curdled into an outdated relic? Either way, we're all in.
John Kippen – motivational speaker, empowerment coach, professional magician, and author joins host Traci Stein to share his remarkable 12-year journey of coming to terms with the facial paralysis he was left with following brain tumor surgery. John shares how he transformed his greatest challenge into his life's purpose.John is also the author of, “Playing the Hand You Are Dealt” and the subject of the documentary, “John's Ultimate Illusion,” co-starring his friend and award-winning actress, Jamie Lee Curtis.By the end of this episode, you'll understand why John's TedX talk has garnered over 1 million views and counting.For more on John Kippen, his book, his coaching, his documentary and much more, visit: https://www.johnkippen.com/Listeners of this podcast can download a free copy of John's book by listening for the special link he mentions in the episode.For more on Traci Stein, visit: https://www.drtracistein.com/

Moviewallas Episode 585 Welcome back to Moviewallas — your weekly fix for smart, spoiler-free movie reviews and cinephile banter. In Episode 585, Joe, Rashmi, and Yazdi return to a two-feature format, covering a buzzy new political dramedy from James L. Brooks and a genre-bending psychological thriller from Paul Feig. Along the way, they catch up on trailers, discuss new clip mics, and celebrate the San Diego Film Critics Society awards season. Full list of winners now live at https://www.sdfcs.org Ella McCay Written and directed by James L. Brooks, Ella McCay is a 2025 political dramedy about a rising political star (Emma Mackey) navigating public scrutiny, personal relationships, and generational conflict in the run-up to an election. With an ensemble that includes Jamie Lee Curtis, Woody Harrelson, Jack Lowden, Ayo Edebiri, and Albert Brooks, the film blends wit, idealism, and emotional nuance — marking Brooks' return to filmmaking after a 13-year hiatus. The Housemaid From Paul Feig comes an unexpected turn into psychological suspense. The Housemaid is a dark, stylized thriller set in a glossy Manhattan high-rise, where a seemingly docile domestic worker gradually upends the life of her wealthy employer. With echoes of Single White Female and Parasite, Feig's latest blends social satire and tension into something uniquely disquieting.

The Film School Janitors know trash when they see it, and with this review they ask - is CHRISTMAS WITH THE KRANKS trash? Or is it gold? Or frankincense? Or myrhh? Tim Allen and Jamie Lee Curtis star in this adaptation of a John Grisham novel (yes, the courtroom thriller guy tried to get some of that crunchy Christmas cash). The nicest thing to say about this film is... it's weird. The naughtiest thing to say... involves a strange tanning booth sequence in the film. Unwrap this podcast today to find out more!
Send us a textKatie and Bridget KRANK IT UP as they re-watch the movie: Christmas with the Kranks! Come along as we meet Luther and Nora Krank, a couple who says goodbye to their daughter before Christmas time (girls in the Peace Core... Allegedly...) and they become severely depressed. But as anyone from Jersey knows, the one cure to fixing the holiday blues involves three simple things: tanning, Botox, and cruises! When the Kranks decide to skip out on Christmas the movie becomes a horror movie, and nightmare induced bullying ensues! At least up until their daughter announces she's coming home for Christmas last minute - and possibly getting married!? - then they pivot and slap that Krank button to get the holiday spirit back in swing at their house. We've got Christmas sweater vests, early 2000's references, and a big old bob-cut all wrapped up in this tonally confusing Christmas movie! Released in 2004, it stars Tim Allen, Jamie Lee Curtis, Dan Aykroyd, M. Emmet Walsh, Elizabeth Franz, and Erik Per Sullivan.

MUSICRoger Daltrey of The Who is now SIR Roger Daltrey. He was knighted by Prince William at Windsor Castle on Wednesday. It's in recognition of not only his musical achievements, but also his charity work. Here he is on the award, and what his younger self and band would've thought back in the day. https://consequence.net/2025/12/sir-roger-daltrey-knighted/ Sharon Osbourne has given her first interview since the death of her husband Ozzy this past July.Appearing Wednesday on the British TV show Piers Morgan Uncensored, hosted by her longtime friend, she opened up about his health struggles, doing his final show this past July 5th in Birmingham, England, their last conversations and much more. You can watch the show on YouTube, and here are a few excerpts:Sharon Osbourne on the last two weeks of Ozzy's life. OC:...in seven years. :27 [Courtesy of Piers Morgan Uncensored]"He was so happy Piers afterwards. And he kept looking at the papers and he goes to me, 'I never knew so many people like me.' But that was the way he was. I mean, he knew he was famous, but not to the amount that people loved him. It's a whole different thing. And he was just so happy. Happier than we'd seen him in seven years."Sharon Osbourne on dreams Ozzy was having the last week of his life. OC:...he was ready. :26 [Courtesy of Piers Morgan Uncensored]"He was having dreams the last week of his life. He was seeing people that he never knew. I said, 'Well, what kind of people?' He goes, 'All different people. And I just keep walking and walking and I'm seeing all these different people every night. And I go back there and I'm looking at these people and they're looking at me and nobody's talking.' And he he knew. He was ready." Sharon also talked about the first time she and Ozzy met, when they fell in love, how she will never want to get married again, how if she didn't have kids she would have killed herself when he died, and the thing she misses most is holding his hand.On a lighter note, she also talked about how she wanted to get back at Roger Waters for the negative things he said about Ozzy after he died. And that was by sending him a Tiffany box filled with feces, which she used to do to critics who wrote negative reviews about Ozzy's shows without being there. When she did, it was her infant son Jack's poop that would be used.She ultimately decided against it, saying, “Even that is a waste, to send [crap] to him. It's a waste because he's really insignificant. But I just thought, anybody that passes has a family… you don't do that.” (Sharon's not the first musician's wife to do that. Paul and Linda McCartney sent some of their daughter Stella's poop to a journalist who earned their trust, then betrayed them.)Going forward, Sharon says she's continuing to work on an Ozzy bio-pic and that she knows who she wants to play him. When asked if it was Yunglbud she didn't confirm nor deny.https://youtu.be/aaLMsEJKZEQ Kurt Cobain's MTV Unplugged Martin D-18E has been donated to the Royal College of Music London by Peter Freedman, who paid $6,010,000 for it at an auction in 2020.

But there are plenty of other films that spark the same argument, "Is this actually a Christmas movie?" Here are 13 more:1. Every "Harry Potter" movie (2001 - 2011). All the "Potter" flicks . . . with the possible exception of the last one . . . have some kind of yuletide vibe . . . or at least a wintry one.2. "Batman Returns" (1992). One of the big set pieces is the lighting of the Gotham Christmas tree.3. "Eyes Wide Shut" (1999). Even though it was released in July, it takes place over Christmas.4. "Gremlins" (1984). This one has Christmas written all over it. And also little green, murderous demons.5. "First Blood" (1982). The first of the "Rambo" films has a Christmas tree in the background of one scene. So . . . Christmas movie!!!6. "Trading Places" (1983). There's a Christmas party, and Dan Aykroyd as a drunken Santa waving a handgun. But it doesn't end on December 25th. If it's a Christmas movie, then it also qualifies as a New Year's movie.7. "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" (2005). This one takes place during the Christmas season in L.A. And it was released in November.8. "Edward Scissorhands" (1990). Kind of a no-brainer.9. "Lethal Weapon" (1987). Another one of those action movies that HAPPENS to take place around Christmas.10. "Rocky" (1976). This might be the greatest American holiday film of all time, because it includes Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's. And also punching.11. "Hook" (1991). The scenes in the real world, outside Neverland, are set at Christmas. 12. "Iron Man 3" (2013). The whole movie plays out around Christmas.13. "The Nightmare Before Christmas" (1993). Is it a Christmas movie or a Halloween movie? Why not both?AND THAT IS YOUR CRAP ON CELEBRITIES!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
We're holding it together with ribbons and Scotch tape this week on Breakfast All Day. Alonso is off promoting the new edition of his book, "Have Yourself a Movie Little Christmas," so here's what we've got for you: ELLA McCAY: Yes, it is as baffling as you've heard. Thankfully, Tim Grierson from Screen International returns to help try and make sense of it. The latest film from Oscar-winner James L. Brooks stars Emma Mackey as a young lieutenant governor who must step up and lead her state, but various personal and professional crises get in the way. Jamie Lee Curtis, Albert Brooks and Woody Harrelson are among the impressive supporting cast. In theaters. DUST BUNNY: Writer-director Bryan Fuller (TV's "Pushing Daisies," "Hannibal") makes his feature debut with this delightfully dark tale. A precocious girl (Sophie Sloan) hires a hitman (Mads Mikkelsen) to kill the monster beneath her bed. But is the creature real, or just in her imagination? Sigourney Weaver and David Dastmalchian co-star. In theaters. If you're looking for Alonso's Christmas movie livestream, here it is, free to view on our Patreon.

In this February 2014 episode of the Aw Yeah Podcast, the boys slip on the boots for a free-wheeling pop-culture marathon they lovingly call “The Shoemaker.” A big celeb name dropping episode.It's one of those classic hangout sessions where every tangent is fair game and the laughs come fast. We kick things off revisiting Robin Williams' Popeye, the strange, ambitious, spinach-powered musical that still sparks debate decades later. From there, the conversation veers into the unforgettable era when Jamie Lee Curtis became the unexpected queen of “yogurt-helps-you-poop” commercials, and yes, everyone has opinions.The crew also digs into Jonn meeting Robert Vaughn, The Man From UNCLE and Artie's least favorite villian from Superman 3, the Rocky films, breaking down why the franchise still hits as hard as ever, and then jumps into a deep dive on the Planet of the Apes movies . Sprinkled throughout are some priceless Harry Caray stories, the kind that only this crew can tell, plus a lively discussion on John Romita Jr.'s take on Superman, what makes his version stand out, and why it grabbed fans' attention.It's loose, it's goofy, it's packed with memories and comic-shop energy. A vintage Aw Yeah episode through and through.
