“Both [Cage] and George C. Scott [in Hardcore] share the same forehead sweat…” - Andrew On this week's very special episode, we're celebrating EPISODE 800 with a very sleaze-tastic conversation on Joel Schumacher's 8MM! How funny is it the screenwriter got upset that the content was toned down from his more hardcore vision? Was Cage's Tom Welles in over his head with this case or was he just the man for the job? How funny is that scene with Gandolfini trying to skip town carrying several boxes of pornography? How great is Joaquin in this performance as Max California? And how terrifying is that final showdown at Casa de Machine? PLUS: “Marc Maron” asks Machine who his guys are! 8MM stars Nicolas Cage, Joaquin Phoenix, James Gandolfini, Peter Stormare, Anthony Heald, Catherine Keener, Myra Carter, Amy Morton, and Chris Bauer as Machine; directed by Joel Schumacher.

Send us a textIt's new theme time again and for this round we have "Rebels WITH a Cause" which involves Films about characters who go against the grain for a purpose, whether through social, political, or personal rebellion.Starting things off with a bang we have "Falling Down", the 1993 thriller from Joel Schumacher starring Michael Douglas and featuring Robert Duvall, Barbara Hershey and Rachel Ticotin. This film is a lot more than it appears to be on the surface and we dig into the good stuff to find the rebel and the cause within.Also stay tuned for our own stories of rebellion, discussions about what exactly is a 'cause' and Matt complains about his inner ear problems.

Rest in peace, Val Kilmer. This week, we're devoting our episode to Val and his smoldering performance in Joel Schumacher's first foray into the Batman franchise. There will never be another Dark Knight like you, Mr. Kilmer.Between Jim Carrey's unhinged take on the Riddler, Tommy Lee Jones trying against all odds to out-crazy him, and the overwhelming aura of horny energy exuding from Nicole Kidman, there is a lot to unpack with this 90s classic. Strap in, we're getting takeout in the (very phallic) Batmobile.Next week, it's Schumacher's even more deranged follow-up, BATMAN & ROBIN.

In the twenty-ninth episode of Season 11: The Son of Cult Flicks, Kyle is joined for a one-on-one conversation with screenwriter August Gummere to discuss the full 80s camp of soundtrack, aesthetic, and attitude in Joel Schumacher's flamboyant subversion of the vampire genre that reflects on found family, Generation X anxiety, and the seduction of immortality with no responsibility in the cult classic The Lost Boys (1987).

On the newest episode of BatMarch the boys discuss Batman Forever directed by Joel Schumacher starring Val Kilmer, Jim Carrey, Tommy Lee Jones, Nicole Kidman, & Chris O'Donnell. But first special guest Ahmed Raafat joins us to discuss the movie. Ahmed is an immensely talented comic book artist whose new series Who Are The Power Pals? just released from Dark Horse Comics. He also did a variant cover for Anthony's comic Superguy #1, and even recently worked on the comic Quick Stops with Kevin Smith. Batman Forever is a blend between the old Adam West Batman & Tim Burton's Batman. It's Bat Shit crazy. Despite being blasted by critics, the movie did very well at the box office. Jake has a technical problem during recording and ends up being lost to the void. Tommy Lee Jones apparently hated Jim Carrey during filming. Did Tommy Lee try to make his Two-Face too much like Jim Carrey's Riddler? Did we all get the McDonald's Batman Forever glasses? This is the only movie to show us a live action origin of Robin. Batman Forever gave us the Seal classic Kiss From a Rose. Are modern superhero movies missing something this movie has? The Riddler!s island looks like the Aggro krag!

As we continue our "In the March of Madness" series with a month-long look at films about madness and insanity, this week, we tak a look at the 1993 film, Falling Down. Michael Douglas plays an ordinary man who is frustrated with the various flaws he sees in society and he begins to psychotically and violently lash out against them. Listen in and find out what we thought.
Welcome to the almost interesting bonus episode about Joel Schumacher's last film, Trespass.

"La morte è come nuotare sempre più lontano ogni notte nell'oceano e vedere se riesci a tornare. E quando torni a casa dici: ho f****** di nuovo la morte" La nuotata finale giunse a suo tempo anche per il buon vecchio Joel Schumacher, noto e controverso regista che ha lavorato per trent'anni in un'industria costantemente in evoluzione e facendo ciò che gli riusciva meglio: fare cinema. Questo è il lungo, altalenante ma comunque ricco cinema di Joel Schumacher, uno degli ultimi grandi mesterianti della Hollywood che fu.

When was the last time you actually sat down to watch Joel Schumacher's Batman & Robin? Jim had never seen it, and Justin hadn't seen it for years and years. Is it worth a second look? (Or in Jim's case, a first?) In this Patreon-exclusive episode available now, we try to keep a cool head about a movie that provoked a lot of vitriol to have a clear-eyed discussion about what works and what doesn't.

Angry, White Man: Joel Schumacher's Falling Down Looking at the world - past, present, and future - this week Mr. Chavez & I sit down to watch and discuss Joel Schumacher's 1993 look at American male angst, disgust, and disspointment, Falling Down. As we "welcome" a return of the Republicans to political power, Schumacher's film is a brutal look at the disspointment of the American Dream. Michael Douglas leads with a powerful performance of a late-30s/mid 40s everyman, laid-off, divorced, and confused by his no longer being "Economicallay Viable". Sharing the screen is a strong, later-career performance by the great Robert Duvall as the Detective who connects the dots. A better film than it deserves to be, Falling Down is a powerful examination of what happens when the Dream falls apart.

Happy New Year's Eve, movie lovers! This week, the Shat crew bids farewell to 2024 with a truly twisted trip back to 1999 and Joel Schumacher's descent into darkness: 8mm. Nicholas Cage trades in his bees for smokes, Joaquin Phoenix dons the most questionable crop tops ever filmed, and we discover that apparently, “Are you a cop?” is still the universal password for underground crime rings. Join Gene Lyons and Big D as they wrestle with the true horrors of the film: not just snuff movies, but also parenting during awkward sex scenes, inexplicably bad investigative decisions, and the economics of murder in an era where a 20-inch shovel costs less than a Big Mac combo. Is 8mm a misunderstood thriller or a time capsule of 1999's obsession with edgy “dark detective” tales? Find out if this cinematic black hole ends the year with a bang or just wipes itself out. Spoiler alert: It's not the bees, but it might be the belly tees.

Send us a textJUROR #2 It's late-December and, foregoing our usual Christmas-adjacent movie watch, this year TGTPTU has a very special treat for the holidays. That's right, listener, we bring to you our hot takes on what may prove to be Clint Eastwood's final film--and even more likely his final theatrically-released film--JUROR #2 (2024) in time for its MAX streaming release so that you might celebrate with us and have yourself a very Merry Clint-mas. Eastwood's latest film with Warner Brothers continues what was a trend (excepting Cry Macho and The Mule) of not starring the star of the 70's ape comedies and the Dirty Harry series, instead keeping Eastwood off camera and bringing in a murderer's row (some pun intended) of character actors, including Nicholas Hoult from multiple Bryan Singer flicks as the titular Juror #2; Toni Collette from The Sixth Sense as Assistant DA Faith Killebrew who may put her career on the line to explore whether the person she put away for murder is guilty; J.K. Simmons from Postal (and likely some other films) as a former detective on the jury who also has suspicions of innocence; Cedric Yarbrough from Reno 911! as juror out for justice; Kiefer Sutherland from multiple Joel Schumacher flicks as Juror #2's AA sponsor and lawyer confidant; and even one of Eastwood's many children--Francesca Eastwood--giving the double bird in multiple, retold scenes Rashomon-style playing the once-and-future corpse. From The Mule & Richard Jewell, cinematographer Yves Bélanger is back with Mark Mancina returning from Cry Macho for the score. And surprisingly and, as discussed, perhaps as a first for Eastwood as a director, the man who addressed an empty chair at the RNC and practices TM actually worked with the film's writer to GASP! rewrite the script, an act host Ken who has seen and reported back on every Eastwood film takes to mean Juror #2 is the 94-year-old director's swan song. And the song is good! While the hosts conflict on where the movie lands politically in its cynicism and realism, all four of the folx talking in your earholes believe the moving picture a solid mid-budget thriller that harkens back to a time/era of pre-streaming moviegoing. Speaking of an era ending, Warner Brothers appears to believe the Time of Eastwood is done, releasing this latest film from the long-time collaborator in under 50 theaters seven scheduled weeks before releasing it for streaming on MAX. So get your spoilers here, and listen to the end of the p for what starts as a rant against WB's treatment of Eastwood and becomes men complaining about previews and ads before films that eventually ends with the four hosts recapping their 2024 movie-going experiences before awarding their best films of the year. Also fun: Evidence is presented throughout by hosts Ken and Thomas for whether provisional cohost Ryan should be promoted to a full-time host. Congrats, newly fully-fledged host Ryan. Don't rush to mess this up.

Prepare yourself for bloat and bombast because we're discussing Joel Schumacher's 2004 adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera for its 20th anniversary! Tagging in for the conversation is queer musician Bartees Strange, who provides some much needed musical insight on the film. Join us as we try to figure out why this movie doesn't sing (sorry) the way it should. It's a constant war of style vs. substance, with a lot of visuals that look great....but mean nothing. Adding insult to injury is the perplexing decision to cast non-singer Gerard Butler as the Phantom, who makes some questionable decisions regarding the villain's characterization. Plus: Emmy Rossum's breakout role, Patrick Wilson's Lord Farquad haircut, reprise after reprise after reprise, golden arm candelabra holders and a runaway chandelier. ***Episode Correction: During his prodcution history, Trace says that the stage production of The Phantom of the Opera premiered in 1968, but it was actually 1986.

Today we are talking about The Lost Boys directed by Joel Schumacher. It's the story of a young guy who moves into a town and gets caught up with some vampires. His brother figures out how to help with the help of Corey Feldman. There is also a guy who plays the saxophone. @lenanazarei joins us to talk about the definitive vampire movie of the 80's!
Wicked gives us the secret origin of the Wicked Witch of the West from The Wizard of Oz. We dive a little deeper into what makes her so unique.Wicked is shaping up to be one of the biggest cinematic hits of the holiday season this year, following on from its wild success first as a bestselling novel and then as an even more successful Broadway musical. Is there the equivalent of an EGOT for adapted properties? Because if so, Wicked just needs a video game or something to qualify.At the heart of Wicked, however, is the sympathetic origin story of the formerly nameless Wicked Witch of the West from the classic Wizard of Oz story. Given both a name and a significant backstory in Wicked, we learn that her trademark green skin wasn't the manifestation of some inner character flaw, but rather a somewhat magical mishap brought about by her mother consuming a potion while pregnant with the future villainess. We admit that delving into the realm of pure magic on Does it Fly? has occasionally proven difficult, but in the case of Elphaba, there's something to the question of just how green a person can get, and the possible causes.Watch the latest episode of Does it Fly? right here or check it out on our YouTube page to learn more. FURTHER READING Do you want to delve a little deeper into the facts, concepts, and stories Hakeem and Tamara referenced in today's episode? Of course you do! Book Learnin' Wicked is first based on Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West by Gregory Maguire, which also spawned the sequels Son of a Witch, A Lion Among Men, and Out of Oz.Of course, all of this goes back to L. Frank Baum's original children's novel, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. But did you know that book had a whopping thirteen sequels? Oz mythology is vast!The Evolution of Skin Color in HumansMelanin is what gives everyone their skin color, and understanding how and why various skin tones evolved is the foundation of our discussion about the (potential) science of green skin. Read more here.Don't Turn Green!As a quick PSA, here's a guide to how you can keep any copper oxide in jewelry from giving your skin that (lovely?) Oz-like green tint.When People Actually Turned GreenHypochromic anemia, or chlorosis, was a condition that did indeed leave some folks with green-ish skin. We usually try to do a little better than just Wikipedia links in these notes, but because chlorosis isn't really an issue these days, there's not a ton of contemporary writing about it. So start with this Wikipedia entry, and if you want to dig deeper there are two scientific journal articles you can try to access here and here. There will be a quiz next week! (not really)ThalidomideSince the origin of the Wicked Witch's green skin begins with her mom drinking a potion, an example Hakeem cites in this episode is the tragedy surrounding use of Thalidomide during the mid-20th century, in which expectant mothers took a drug that was supposed to help with morning sickness and instead caused severe physical issues with their babies. A full history can be found here, but please beware of disturbing imagery.SUGGESTED VIEWING Oz-related screen adaptations are pretty much too numerous to list, and too varied in quality to really get into in the space we have here. But here are the ones we recommend…The Wizard of Oz (1939)MGM's 1939 musical classic is rightfully the most inescapable, culturally dominant version of the Oz mythos ever put on screen. It's also the most beloved. Almost impossible to imagine anyone reading this isn't aware of it in some capacity.The Wiz (1978)Sydney Lumet and Joel Schumacher's screen adaptation of the stage play which updated the Oz story for a more modern audience features a cast that includes no less than Diana Ross as Dorothy Gale, Richard Pryor (!) as the Wiz, and the legendary Lena Horne as Glinda, the Good Witch of the North.Return to Oz (1985)Long before taking the lead role in The Craft, Fairuza Balk took her turn as Dorothy Gale in a movie that, while essentially a sequel to the 1939 film, is actually more frightening and disturbing than The Craft! Absolutely worth your time.Wicked Part I (2024)Director Jon M. Chu's anticipated adaptation of the book and Broadway musical boasts an absurdly all-star cast including Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba, Ariana Grande as Galinda, Jeff Goldblum as the Wizard of Oz, Michelle Yeoh, Peter Dinklage, and more!

We explore the rich dynamics of character portrayal in vampire stories, celebrating performances from George Clooney's suave role in "From Dusk Till Dawn" to Joel Schumacher's unique touch on "The Lost Boys." As we sprinkle in casting ideas for potential remakes, we savor the nostalgia and timeless appeal that vampire cinema brings to the screen.The episode wraps up with a spirited discussion about the cultural impact of vampire-themed media, from the iconic "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" to the cyclical popularity of the genre.

Recorded on: Tuesday September 10th, 2024 Hola, fans! That Horror Show Podcast is back with a brand new episode that will bring joy and excitement to your eardrums! Those lovable hosts Timothy Kazda and Chris Koenig have been doing some hardcore (eh, maybe softcore?) WWE practice for this very special episode. Yes, it's a double-feature horror movie review...BUT, it's also a little different in its approach. Basically, Chris and Tim review two 80s horror movies with a very similar theme that came out within the same year, and see which one is better than the other. In the case of this episode, it's none other than Joel Schumacher's set-in-stone classic "The Lost Boys" (1987) vs. Kathryn Bigelow's cult classic "Near Dark" (1987)...in other words, to movies that couldn't be anymore different...or are they??? Hey, you gotta listen to find out what the boys think. And also, none other than Nate from 'Kids Corner' will provide his brief take on both movies as well! * Edit update: Unfortunately, Nate could not make the recording session.
Vamp-tober continues as we zoom forward in time to the 80s! The 80s were a great decade for vampire films, and we'll be talking about two beloved cult classics from the time: The Hunger and The Lost Boys. The Hunger is slower, more stylish movie starring Catherine Deneuve, David Bowie, and Susan Sarandon — plus, it's the directorial debut from Tony Scott! The Lost Boys is a Joel Schumacher spectacle, in a teen movie + vampire mashup. Which approach will our hosts prefer? Plus, we open the show discussing the movies we got to see at Beyond Fest 2024!

Click here to try it out!Welcome back to Bad Dads Film Review! Today, we're delving into the eerie and thought-provoking world of Flatliners (1990), a film that combines psychological thriller and sci-fi elements with a dash of supernatural intrigue. Directed by Joel Schumacher, this movie explores the consequences of toying with life and death through an ambitious group of medical students.Flatliners features an ensemble cast including Kiefer Sutherland, Julia Roberts, William Baldwin, Oliver Platt, and Kevin Bacon as medical students who embark on a risky experiment to discover what lies beyond death. They take turns inducing clinical death, experiencing the afterlife for a few minutes before being resuscitated. What starts as a scientific inquiry quickly spirals into a nightmare as their past sins and personal demons begin to haunt them in the real world.The plot thickens as each student experiences death and returns with not only vivid memories but also haunting repercussions. These experiences range from spiritually enlightening to terrifyingly disturbing, affecting each individual differently. As they push the boundaries of their experiments further, the consequences become increasingly severe, forcing them to confront unresolved issues and moral questions about life and death.Flatliners explores profound themes such as the ethical limits of scientific exploration and the idea of redemption. It questions the arrogance of human endeavors to conquer death and highlights the inescapable nature of past transgressions. The characters' confrontations with their personal ghosts serve as a metaphor for facing one's actions and seeking forgiveness.A Dad's Take For a movie night with older kids or teens, particularly those interested in the melding of science and existential questions, Flatliners offers a lot to unpack. It's a film that encourages viewers to think about deep and sometimes uncomfortable questions regarding life, death, and the afterlife.So, join us as we dive into the chilling yet fascinating world of Flatliners, examining how far one can go in the pursuit of knowledge before they've gone too far. Whether you're revisiting this classic or experiencing its thrills for the first time, there's plenty to discover and discuss.

Doc Coyle is back on the podcast! He's one of our favorite personalities in the game and he's here to celebrate his first solo song release “Livin' On The Edge.” The song came out last week, along with its Falling Down inspired music video. We breakdown his take on a classic film and approach and the joy of creating a music video that references such a great movie. The conversation also heads into our love for film and filmmakers discussing Joel Schumacher, sequels having to always go camp with intense topics in masculinity, how masculinity has changed through the years and how classics films will be seen, and his preference of Tony Scott over Ridley Scott as a filmmaker. We also discuss metal fans being negative towards him being in Bad Wolves because of the elitist mentality in our scene, why he feels jealousy doesn't play a part in negativity towards legendary bands success, and his upcoming co-headlining tour with Pop Evil in North America. Petar and Brandon breakdown the week of countdowns that lead us to Linkin Park's delayed announcement and who the fans would embrace as the new singer of Linkin Park, Michael Sweet's comment about not knowing any Metallica songs, and the Cancer Christ frontman deciding to spend a decade or more behind bars for some craziness.
