Directed by Robert Rodriguez and starring George Clooney, Quentin Tarantino, Juliette Lewis and a gnarly were-rat, the movie focuses on what happens when murderous criminals meet murderous vampires. In this episode, they also talk about exploding vampires, f-bombs, vampire cinema, and were-rats.
El episodio 4 de Cape Fear nos deja algunas de las revelaciones más importantes de la temporada hasta el momento. Descubrimos el traumático pasado de Tom, la verdad sobre la muerte de su hermano, nuevas pistas sobre Nava y una teoría que podría cambiar por completo nuestra visión de Max Cady. En este análisis con spoilers repasamos todo lo ocurrido en el capítulo: el inquietante personaje interpretado por Juliette Lewis, el sorprendente beso entre Anna y Max, la investigación sobre Naevah, el deterioro emocional de Zach y las señales que apuntan a que la familia podría estar siendo manipulada desde varios frentes al mismo tiempo. Además, analizamos las principales teorías del episodio: ¿es Nava realmente hija de Max Cady? ¿Qué relación existe entre Anna y Max desde hace 17 años? ¿Está Zach repitiendo el mismo camino que siguió el hermano de Tom? ¿Y quién es realmente la misteriosa mujer que continúa vigilando a Anna?

Von Kampfballett, blutigen Remakes und einem enttäuschenden Turnier Die neue Folge startet mit einer unerwarteten Nebenrolle: Zeljko wird zum Puppenmacher beim Ballett – und schwitzt dabei mehr als beim Workout. Außerdem hat er für The Furious eine Kinoreihe gemietet und freut sich auf den zweiten Durchgang auf der großen Leinwand. Dann geht's um Over Your Dead Body – das US-Remake des norwegischen Originals The Trip. Ein Ehepaar versucht sich in einem abgelegenen Ferienhaus wieder anzunähern, doch die Situation eskaliert auf blutige und überraschend witzige Weise. Samara Weaving und Juliette Lewis liefern ab, der Film ist drüber, chaotisch und macht richtig Spaß. Wer das Original kennt, muss den nicht unbedingt noch mal sehen – wer es nicht kennt, bekommt hier eine solide, unterhaltsame Variante mit viel schwarzem Humor. Film der Woche: Mortal Kombat II – und leider eine Enttäuschung. Immerhin gibt es diesmal ein richtiges Turnier, und die Optik ist hochwertig, aber der Film langweilt trotzdem. Die Kämpfe sind okay, die Story fühlt sich generisch und checklistenartig an, und selbst Karl Urban als Johnny Cage kann nicht retten. Im Vergleich zum ersten Teil, der mit seiner eigenen Note überzeugen konnte, wirkt der zweite wie ein uninspiriertes Abhaken von Fan-Erwartungen. Beide landen bei einem ähnlichen Fazit: Mortal Kombat II darf nicht langweilen – und das tut er leider. Also, Ohren auf und ab in die Welt von "Once Upon A Time In Cinema - Der Filmpodcast" - jeden Sonntag um 10:00 Uhr, überall wo es Podcasts gibt!

Cape Fear (1991) Review | Scorsese, De Niro & a Disturbing Thriller (Vintage Cinema Review)Dave, Matt, and Zap welcome viewers to the Vintage Cinema Review and discuss Matt's pick, Martin Scorsese's R-rated thriller Cape Fear (1991), noting it's a remake of a 1962 original with cameos, a 128-minute runtime, and strong box office against a $35M budget. They cover the cast led by Robert De Niro, Nick Nolte, Jessica Lange, and Juliette Lewis, then recap the plot: ex-con Max Cady stalks attorney Sam Bowden over withheld evidence, escalates with violence against Laurie Davis, manipulates Bowden's teenage daughter, and pushes the family to a climactic houseboat showdown on the Cape Fear River. They debate ethics, performances, disturbing scenes, and some effects, share fun facts (Spielberg/Scorsese project swap, green screen use, De Niro's physical transformation and dental work), and give their “late fee/return/burn” verdicts.00:00 Welcome to Vintage Cinema00:26 Why Cape Fear00:52 Remakes and Originals02:03 Theater Memories and Dune02:49 Back to Cape Fear Facts04:03 Budget Box Office Talk05:14 Cast Roll Call07:25 VHS Synopsis Read10:21 Plot Setup and First Encounters12:31 De Niro Transformation13:43 Smoking and Theater Etiquette18:52 Stalking Backstory and Dog20:30 Lawyers Ethics Debate27:15 Assault and Manipulation Escalate33:11 Danny Scene Breakdown36:08 Emancipation Confusion36:51 Creepy Theater Moment38:29 Max Turns the Tables39:47 Courtroom Tape Debate41:16 Good Old Boy Justice43:25 Slasher Villain Energy44:04 Under the Jeep Twist46:46 Riverboat Final Showdown48:33 Style Choices and Visions50:27 Boat Effects Breakdown52:09 Fun Facts Roundtable01:03:06 Ratings Late Fee Return Burn01:10:34 Wrap Up and Plugs
Cape Fear is back, Apple TV's new 10-episode Cape Fear series stars Javier Bardem as Max Cady, and we're breaking down the first two episodes. Meaghan is joined by Arthur (filling in for Shirin) to dig into the new Cape Fear adaptation on Apple TV, starring Javier Bardem, Amy Adams, and Patrick Wilson. We trace it back to John D. MacDonald's 1957 novel The Executioners and compare this version to the 1962 film (Gregory Peck, Robert Mitchum) and the famous 1991 remake (Robert De Niro, Nick Nolte, Jessica Lange, Juliette Lewis). Cape Fear's long road from novel to Apple TV Cape Fear started life as The Executioners, a 1957 novel by John D. MacDonald (also known for the Travis McGee series). It's been adapted three times now: the 1962 film with Gregory Peck and Robert Mitchum, the 1991 remake with Robert De Niro and Nick Nolte, and now this 10-episode Apple TV series. At just over 200 pages, the source novel is short, meaning the new miniseries has a lot of room to expand the story. Javier Bardem's Max Cady, how he compares Bardem takes over a role previously played by Robert Mitchum (1962) and Robert De Niro (1991), both iconic, very different takes on the character. We talk about how unsettling his stillness is, and how the show keeps us guessing about whether Max Cady is actually guilty of the murder for which he was convicted. In this version, Max Cady's conviction (for the murder of his wife and unborn child) gets overturned after a confession surfaces, setting up a very different starting point than previous adaptations. Amy Adams and Patrick Wilson as the Bowdens Amy Adams plays Anna Bowden, the defense attorney from Max Cady's original trial, a gender-swapped twist on the classic "Sam Bowden" role. Patrick Wilson plays Tom Bowden, the prosecutor in that same case, now Anna's husband. We dig into the implication that Anna and Tom may have colluded during the original trial, and what that could mean once the truth comes out. The Bowden kids: Natalie and Zack Natalie Bowden, played by Lily Collias, is Anna's daughter from a previous relationship, and seemingly the "responsible" sibling. Zack Bowden, played by Joe Anders, is dealing with a troubling backstory and increasingly disturbing behavior, including a deeply unsettling moment involving self-harm. We talk about whether Max Cady is somehow connected to what's happening with Zack, or whether it's something else entirely. The SJLP subplot and our early theories Anna works for the Savannah Justice League Project (SJLP), an organization focused on freeing the wrongfully convicted — alongside her business partner, Noa Toussaint. A separate wrongful-conviction case tied to the SJLP takes a dark and suspicious turn almost immediately after Max Cady is released. We share our early predictions for where the rest of the season is headed, including whether Max Cady is guilty, innocent, or something murkier. What's next Cape Fear airs new episodes weekly on Apple TV, with the finale on July 31. We'll be back with a full Cape Fear season recap once it wraps.

We cover Apple TV+'s Cape Fear episode 3, “Phantom Sensations,” with Sona, starting with a quick Knicks aside and then a scheduling note: we'll cover episode 4 next week before pivoting for two weeks to The Bear, with The Agency also returning. We recap key points from earlier episodes, including Anna's strained relationship with her father, Max's abusive adoptive upbringing and dog-training imagery, speculation about “devil's breath,” and the discovery of a murdered family. In episode 3, Tom confronts pool squatters and his gun stash is emphasized, while Anna escalates by cloning Zach's phone and impersonating him, drawing Nevia to the house; Nevia's motives remain unclear. Max's unsettling public encounter, the family's glitching security footage, leaked party videos, Tom's near-affair, and the episode-ending VHS featuring Juliette Lewis and a dog-collar song deepen the show's themes of intrusion, surveillance, and destabilization.

Over Your Dead Body (Prime Video) | Rosenkrieg auf die harte Tour „Over Your Dead Body“ zeigt, dass ein romantisches Wochenende schnell zur tödlichen Zerreißprobe werden kann. Nach dem Motto „Was sich liebt, das neckt sich – was sich nicht mehr liebt, versucht sich umzubringen“ geraten Samara Weaving und Jason Segel in der schwarzen Komödie als Ehepaar in einer handfesten Beziehungskrise an ihre Grenzen. Doch als plötzlich drei flüchtige Kriminelle – darunter Timothy Olyphant und Juliette Lewis – auftauchen, eskaliert die ohnehin angespannte Situation vollends. Die Mischung aus rabenschwarzem Humor, Ehekrieg und blutigem Chaos verspricht garstige Unterhaltung. „Over Your Dead Body“ startet am 10. Juni exklusiv bei Prime Video. Wer mehr über die turbulente Komödie erfahren möchte, sollte in die Besprechung von Andi und Stu reinhören, die den Film ganz ohne mörderische Absichten, dafür aber mit jeder Menge Harmonie unter die Lupe genommen haben.

Tune in as Rolo Tony (@PoorOldRoloTony and These Guys Got Juice) hops back onto the podcast to navigate Strange Days, the 1995 tech-noir thriller that follows the last two days of 1999 as an LAPD vice cop-turned-black marketeer and a bodyguard/limo driver rush to uncover a criminal conspiracy involving illegal technology that records your memories and physical sensations for other people to viscerally experience.

We reviewed the big movie of the weekend, the Michael Jackson biopic "Michael," on Tuesday. But there are plenty of other new releases as we await the summer crush. Here's what we discussed in the latest episode of our Breakfast All Day podcast: OVER YOUR DEAD BODY. Samara Weaving and Jason Segel play a miserable married couple who go on a weekend getaway to work on their relationship -- or so they've told each other. Timothy Olyphant and Juliette Lewis co-star in this twisty action comedy from director Jorma Taccone ("Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping"). In theaters. I SWEAR. Robert Aramayo was the surprise best actor winner at the BAFTAs this year for his portrayal of John Davidson, a Scottish man with Tourette syndrome. Writer-director Kirk Jones' film is formulaic in its depiction of adversity, but its heart is in the right place. Maxine Peake, Shirley Henderson and Scott Ellis Watson co-star. In theaters. MOVIE NEWS LIVE! Always a lot to talk about, including "Michael" reactions, early footage of "The Mandalorian & Grogu," casting on Alex Garland's "Elden Ring" movie and more. We won't be here next Friday in solidarity with a nationwide labor strike, but come back on May 8. Thanks for sharing some of your weekend with us!

Time extremely well spent with a master of storytelling... and barbecuing! Dave Grohl in the Dish studio. It finally happened. The award-winning musician and founder of Foo Fighters settled in for a delicious meal with Nick and Angela to discuss the band's forthcoming album, My Favourite Toy. The record - the group's twelfth - is out on Friday 24 April ahead of a worldwide tour that includes two dates at Liverpool's Anfield Stadium. From Nirvana, Foos and Them Crooked Vultures to collaborations with the likes of David Bowie, Juliette Lewis, and Paul McCartney, the world of Dave Grohl is a great place to orbit. Add in his incredible passion for wine, food and, in particular, the art of slow-cooking and barbecues, and it's a Dish episode like no other. Angela goes low and slow for the main course, with a serving of Spanish-style lamb accompanied by roast potatoes with confit garlic and rosemary and a side of new-season asparagus. The Waitrose wine experts selected a bottle of Muga Selección Especial Reserva Rioja to accompany the lamb. The trio also enjoy a glass of Jameson Triple Triple Distilled Irish Whiskey as they realise that Angela and Dave have a lot more in common than you might initially think. You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube and on Spotify.

This week on Shat the Movies, we're diving into The Way of the Gun (2000), where kidnapping goes sideways and nobody is as smart as they think they are. Ryan Phillippe and Benicio del Toro play low-rent criminals who stumble into a job way over their heads, and things get messy fast. Gene and Big D break down the brutal realism, awkward silences, and a shootout style that feels way too grounded to be comfortable. Is this a hidden gem or just a cold, slow burn that never quite pays off? Tune in and find out. Full movie info below The Way of the Gun (2000) is a crime thriller written and directed by Christopher McQuarrie and stars Ryan Phillippe, Benicio del Toro, Juliette Lewis, and James Caan. The film follows two small-time crooks who kidnap a pregnant woman involved in a high-stakes surrogacy deal, only to find themselves hunted by dangerous professionals. Known for its realistic gunplay and stripped-down storytelling, the film has developed a cult following despite mixed reactions at release.

Welcome back to Gnostic Insights and to the Gnostic Reformation on Substack. Last week, I had a good conversation on the telephone with my brother that I thought I’d share that with you today. It’s another aspect of what I call Gnostic Psychology that my brother Bill, Dr. Bill Puett, and I have been developing. He wanted to share with me an article about psychopathy and his Gnostic insight about the article. These conversations started when I was probably about four years old, and Bill was a young teenager at that point. He was already a philosopher, and he and I would have these conversations together. So I grew up with these sorts of interactions with my older brother concerning the nature of reality, God, physics, astronomy, psychology. We’ve been talking about these things now for well over 60 years. from left: Billy, Cyd, and brother David. Recently returned from a sojourn in Japan, 1958. When I became a PhD, I imagined that I would be able to have these sorts of conversations with other people, especially with other professors at the universities I taught at. I expected that this is the nature of conversation, to have this give and take, this interaction, this sharing of information, interrupting each other, getting excited, moving on. But I haven’t found that with anyone else except my brother. I think that when we pass out of this particular material life and return to the abode above, I expect this sort of conversation to be happening up there. Well, certainly in the philosophers’ cafes, if there are such things up there. You know, my vision of the afterlife is very much like what we have here on Earth, because this is, after all, a deficient copy, a deficient imitation by the Demiurge of the land above. And so I expect that we will have these sorts of communities and churches and experiences, but without any of the death, destruction, disappointment, the negative memes, the vices, that will not be there. It’s all going to be good. It’s all going to be on the up and up. And so what I’m hoping for, what I’m expecting, is that there will be gatherings with people like Socrates and Plato and Aristotle, and of course, Christ. Jesus is going to be there, no doubt. And we’ll be having these interesting conversations about things. School of Athens, a fresco by Rafael, painted in 1509 to 1511 So let me bring you up to speed with a thumbnail sketch of what Gnostic psychology is. What I have gleaned from the Tripartite Tractate and other Gnostic books is that we are all fractals. We all carry the Spirit of God within us. We are made in the image of God, it says in the Old and New Testaments. And that image of God, as I see it, is the pleroma of the Fullness of the Hierarchy of God, which itself is a breaking out into all of the variables contained within the Father and the Son, but broken out into their individualities. So if you can imagine that the Father or the Son knew all of music and all of mathematics and all of everything, right? Well, the breakout personalities of those knowing everything would be the philosophers, the mathematicians, the musicians of various types, and everything else. All other personalities are represented in the Fullness of God. And not only the personalities are in the Fullness of God, and by the way, we probably refer to those as angels. Angels are not in the Tripartite Tractate—we use the word Aeons. Those are the inhabitants of the Fullness of God, and they are each one a particularity of the Son, and they have come to self-awareness. But the Fullness of God is not only those personalities, those angels, as we think of them, but it’s concepts like mathematics, like music, like dynamics—up and down, in and out—chemistry, physics. Every concept that can be broken out into a particularity is also part of the hierarchy of the Fullness of God. The Aeons of the Fullness dream as one of Paradise. Okay, so back to the psychological aspect. Each of us second-order powers, and I’ll talk about us humans since we are humans sitting here, we have a fractal copy of that Fullness of God– the image of God as they put it in the Bible. So we have that pure, idyllic self that is a perfect fractal of the Fullness of God. So it’s all good, it’s all loving, it’s the consciousness of the Father and the Son, it’s the purity of talent. So for example, when someone is in the zone, if someone’s a great basketball player, and they’re in the zone in the game, and they’re sinking those baskets like nobody’s business, that’s an aeonic trait of the great basketball player in the sky, you could say. It’s like that, but for every particular skill, for everything that humans are, we each represent constellations of those personalities that are represented in the Fullness of God. We’re each unique in the distribution of those talents. We have the Fullness within us, but certain parts of ourselves are highlighted, and those are our personalities. And so that’s what I call the capital S self. In a lot of spiritual writing, they call that your spirit or your soul. We also have an ego, and the ego is not a negative thing. Even the Aeons above have egos, and the ego is simply your designation. It’s your particular place, position, power; it’s your talent, it’s your duty in the hierarchy. And so when we are born into this material world, we bring that identification of our particular ego with us. Now here’s where the Gnostic Psychology comes in, once we’re in this material world and we are attached to the molecules that make up our body, which are not from above—they come from the Fall. In Gnosticism, this materiality of the cosmos, this materiality of our physical space, is a demiurgic construction based on the Demiurge’s blueprint memory of the Fullness of God, except that the Demiurge doesn’t realize that. The Demiurge thinks he cooks it all up. The Demiurge believes itself to be the only pre-existent consciousness. The Demiurge thinks consciousness began with it when it woke up, and that it is now God. And look all the things it can do. It can create the heavens and the earth. It can create all of the minerals and elements. It can build rocks and crystals and mountains. But it thinks it came up with it. It doesn’t remember it fell from the Fullness of God. It doesn’t remember it is the ego of the fallen Aeon. And here at Gnostic Insights, we identify that fallen Aeon as the Aeon known as Logos. And Logos was the last Aeon to be created in the Fullness of God. And it carried within itself the entirety of the Fullness in a fractal form. When we are sent into this world as a conscious birthing choice by the Aeons above and by our pre-existent spirit, we are melded onto that material, that mud of the Demiurge. Because the Demiurge can build stuff, but he can’t bring it to life. The Demiurge doesn’t contain the life, the light, the love, the memory of the Father and the Son and the Fullness. We bring that into this world when we are born here. So our physical part of our human body, the purely physical part underneath the cells, the molecules, the amino acids, the chemicals, even the processes, these are demiurgic. And we, our Fullness spirit and our ego, that is what is melded into the physical molecules. And then we grow up with those molecules and build up through the stages of gestation and become born as a fully-fledged second-order power. So we’re one third material. We’re also about one third ego identification. Who we are—those are our proclivities, those are our talents and our personality, our recognizableness. We are also perfect Self with a big S. Our Self, which is a fractal of the Fullness of God. So all three of those parts walk around with us. We 2nd Order Powers are melded to the demiurgic material below us and are infused with life from above Now, the Gnostic Psychology part is how it is that our ego and our Self share the consciousness of this body. And it’s not just our ego now, because once we’re in the world, especially once we’re in the culture of the world, we start picking up memes. A meme is a unit of information. So we pick up these memes, and the ones we love, the ones we like a lot, get stuck to our egoic structure, like strings wrapped around our egoic structure. We start acquiring memes throughout our lifetime from the culture around us, from our parents, from the books we read, and our education. We not only collect the memes we like, such as, I like dogs. That’s a meme. Obey your parents, that’s a meme. Vote, that’s a meme. I’m an American, that’s a meme. You see, every thought we have, every discrete unit of information is a meme, and we wrap those around our bundle of the ego. But not only the ones we like, we also pick up the memes we don’t like, the things we are completely repelled by and hate. We carry that hatred wrapped around us as well. So things that stir you up, your triggers, your baggage, those are memes that are wrapped around your ego. And then this idea of vices and virtues. Virtuous memes are the memes that come from the Fullness of God, the virtues that we think of, such as love, belonging, helpfulness, caring, honesty, all that sort of thing. All the good, good things. Those are virtues. They all have inverses down here. They all have opposites, because in Gnostic philosophy, down here is the shadow of above. So what was a virtue originally is a vice down here, and it’s the opposite. So we have hatred, and lying, and dishonesty, and lack of trustworthiness—these sorts of things. Those are the vices that are shadows of the virtues. So that is the entirety of our psychological makeup: The perfect Self that is at the core of our being, and the ego, which is who we were born as, who we were meant to be in the personality sense. Your innate talents. The Self at the center of our souls is a fractal of the Fullness of God Who are you innately? Are you really good at something? That’s part of your ego that you were born with. And then we have this meme bundle that’s wrapped around our ego. And the things that cause us discomfort, the things we’d like to get rid of, the things that weigh us down, and dishearten us, and make us cry. Those are negative memes that have stuck onto our ego. And we can drop them by deciding to. I’m not going to do it. I’m quitting smoking this time. I’m never going to pick up a cigarette again. That is a decision, for example, to drop that I love cigarettes meme. And so if you can drop these negative memes on your own, and everyone can, if you realize it, decide it. Because we have a very strong willpower. We have free will. Free will is a characteristic of the Father, the Son, and the Aeons. We were born in that line of inheritance whereby we have free will. We just forget about it down here because of the confusion in the world. But if you enable your free will, you can drop your negative memes. If you can’t do it on your own, you can do it through prayer by appealing directly to Christ to help me. Please, Lord Jesus, take this burden from me. Heal me of this alcoholism, or whatever the thing is, right? You can do it through prayer. It can happen in a miraculous second. Or you can do it through therapy, if it’s good therapy. The idea in good therapy is to peel off those memes one at a time. Get rid of those negative memes through therapy, not through pharmaceuticals. You can’t peel off memes from pharmaceuticals, either self-administered pharmaceuticals or psychiatric drugs. That doesn’t peel the memes off of you. It just throws a wet blanket on them, but you’re still carrying them around. The best type of therapy is where you realize the negative meme and you decide with the therapist’s help to drop it. That could be something like rational emotive therapy. It can be hypnotherapy. Before I go any further, let me share with you this article my brother was citing. It’s from the blog known as Aeon. The article is called, There Are No Psychopaths: Virtually everything you know about psychopathy has been thoroughly debunked. Why does this zombie idea live on? Quoting the article, Psychopathic personality disorder, or psychopathy as it is commonly called, is one of the oldest and most researched mental health diagnoses. In modern science, psychopaths are typically described with reference to concrete symptoms, like a lack of empathy, remorse, and conscience, or more explicit behavioral signs, like predatory violence, pathological lying, and impaired impulse control. The psychopath has also become a well-known figure of fascination in popular culture, frequently portrayed in best-selling novels and cinematic thrillers, [such as the movies No Country for Old Men and Natural Born Killers]. However, there’s a problem with this idea of psychopathy. While it has been researched across hundreds of empirical studies, especially since the explosion of research in the late 1990s, there is still remarkably little evidence that corroborates popularized claims about the diagnosis. Woody Harrelson and Juliette Lewis in Natural Born Killers Despite enthusiasm among researchers in the 1990s and 2000s, the past two decades have been sobering. Today, virtually every claim about psychopathy has been either thoroughly refuted or failed to find empirical support in experimental settings. Psychopathy may not exist at all. I’m jumping all around in this article. The article is much longer. The link is included in the transcript to this episode, if you want to go look it up. In the vast majority of tests, [89% of all tests], no clear distinction can be made between psychopaths and control groups. That is extremely strong. So there you go. Hence the title of the article, Psychopathy Does Not Exist. This author produced a study of all the other studies of psychopathy, and this is his conclusion. An alternative answer to this question, that has so far received little attention, is the possibility that psychopathy may be an instance of what scientists colloquially refer to as a zombie idea. Ideas that have the quality of being intuitively appealing, but the idea itself is essentially a fallacious misconception of reality. Just like zombies, when these ideas have been falsified, known to be dead ideas, they somehow still manage to stubbornly stick around in the halls of prestigious universities, only to once again infect another generation of young scientists. He says, The aggregation of scientific evidence does not corroborate the idea of psychopathy. If anything, it throws the whole notion into doubt. And by the way, psychopathy is included as a personality disorder. I couldn’t think of that word when I was talking to him on the phone, but the word I was searching for is personality disorder, and those are pretty much agreed to be impossible to treat. A person is a certain way, and that’s the way they are. My brother and I both agree that so-called psychopathy is a collection of memes that have stuck onto a person’s personality, because they were not born that way. It’s not part of their eternal aeonic personality. It’s a bundle of negative memes. And like any other memes, they can be pulled off if you understand the psychology in this manner. At this point in the episode, I had planned to share about 10 minutes of the phone conversation my brother and I had on this topic but we decided to pull that segment. We felt it was possibly too lighthearted for such a serious topic and that our joshing around might be misunderstood. So we'll leave it at this. I hope you have enjoyed this look at psychopathy and a review of Gnostic psychology. So until next week, God bless us all, and Onward and Upward!

Amanda Kramer's By Design is far more than "the movie where Juliette Lewis turns into a chair".It's a surreal slice of cultural critique that looks at frivolous spending, shallow friendships, and the dark side of female friendships. In this brief interview, Ian talks with Kramer about casting 90s rebel icons as people their characters would have despised; finding a new angle on "wish" movies; and working with the great Udo Kier in one of his final roles!By Design opens in theaters this Friday, courtesy of Music Box Films.Support Kicking the Seat on Patreon, subscribe to us on YouTube, and follow us at:XLetterboxdInstagramFacebookShow LinksWatch the By Design (2026) trailer.Read Ian's By Design review at Kicking the Seat!In Chicago?

The teaming of Kathryn Bigelow and James Cameron is always a potent proposition, as the former married couple are both heavyweight directors in their own right. This should have made their 1995 collaboration Strange Days--a dystopian cyberthriller set on the eve of Y2K starring Ralph Fiennes, Angela Bassett and Juliette Lewis--a surefire smash. Unfortunately, the movie's hot button political themes and pitch black tone didn't translate to boffo box office, and to this day it remains frustratingly unavailable stateside in a high definition format. Join Sebastian and Jennifer as they jack in, fire up some playback and ring in the new year with this underappreciated and chillingly topical sci fi classic.

This Christmas, Shat The Movies takes a detour into one of the strangest holiday comedies ever made with Mixed Nuts, Nora Ephron's chaotic 1994 remake of the French farce Le Père Noël est une ordure. We're revisiting this deeply uncomfortable Christmas movie in honor of the late Rob Reiner, who helped define smart, character-driven comedies—even when they didn't always work. Gene and Big D unpack how a film with an absurdly stacked cast—Steve Martin, Madeline Kahn, Rita Wilson, Adam Sandler, Juliette Lewis, and Liev Schreiber—somehow became a cult curiosity instead of a holiday classic. They debate whether Mixed Nuts was simply ahead of its time, fatally misjudged in tone, or doomed by trying to balance farce, mental health, and Christmas cheer in the same gift box. Along the way, the guys reflect on why Mixed Nuts now plays less like a failed holiday romp and more like a bizarre time capsule of transitional Hollywood. Is this a Christmas movie worth reclaiming—or one best left buried under the tree?

This week, we talk about that teaser for Avengers: Doomsday, a trailer for The Odyssey that probably plays better on the (really, really) big screen, and a film in which Juliette Lewis has a Freaky Friday style body swap with . . . a chair??? Plus, the story Jonathan was trying to remember regarding a plot to have a fake kidnapping was The Fantasticks. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Buzz buzz buzz Yellowjackets Hive! Buzz in for the October (I apologize for the delay in uploading to Spotify!) installment in our character deep dive series. We are rounding out the last of our main characters in this deep dive, one very close to my heart, Miss Natalie Scatorccio herself. Although Natalie was not physically present in the adult timeline of season 3, it's apparent that her memory will never fade. I mean come on, Misty took her leather jacket from that storage locker and probably hasn't even taken it off to shower. Nat will never truly die for MFQ. We dive deep, discussing her role as a leader amongst the group in the wilderness, the role she played in their eventual rescue, her relationship with Travis, the decisions and choices she made to protect both herself and others, what happened post-wilderness, and A LOT more.Nat has been such an integral part of the story so far, with both Juliette Lewis and Sophie Thatcher helping to craft such a wonderfully deep and conflicted character. Can't wait to chat all about her! Buzz in for a fun discussion. As always, thanks for watching/listening :)

Click here to send us a message!Just in time for Halloween, we're revisiting two of our favorite classic 90's horror flicks. Fresh off an Academy Award for Pulp Fiction, Quentin Tarantino teamed with director Robert Rodriguez for From Dusk Till Dawn, starring Tarantino and George Clooney. Rodriguez would follow that up with The Faculty, from writer Kevin Williamson. With sprawling casts and self-referential scripts, these films still hold up among the best horror of the 1990's.
The cult classic film The Rocky Horror Picture Show will celebrate its 50th anniversary this fall. Timed to the occasion, HarperPop will be publishing ROCKY HORROR: A Behind the Scenes Look at the Cult Classic (HarperPop; on sale September 30, 2025; 256 pages, 4-color throughout, $50.00; ISBN 9780063385689), a visual compendium of rarely-scene photographs by legendary rock photographer Mick Rock. Full of unique behind-the-scenes moments from the production of the iconic film, ROCKY HORROR is set to be the ultimate collector's item for fans and cinephiles alike.Capturing the essence of a cultural phenomenon that defied the odds, Rock's collection is a testament to the film's enduring legacy and its vivid undercurrents of sexual fluidity and B-movie camp. The Rocky Horror Picture Show initially flopped upon its release but rose to become a midnight cult classic, inspiring audiences to interact with the film through live performances and spirited audience participation.The late Mick Rock-famous for his work with music legends like David Bowie, Queen, and Blondie-was granted exclusive access during the six weeks of filming. His camera captured not only the action on set but also the essence and energy that made Rocky Horror unique. "I could snap whatever caught my eye, stirred my imagination," said Rock. This creative freedom resulted in an extraordinary collection of images that offer a fresh perspective on the film.The book features a foreword by Richard O'Brien, the creative force behind Rocky Horror, who reflects on the film's incredible journey to becoming a theatrical staple with the longest-running release in history. Interviews with cast members, Mick's personal notes, and other production ephemera are beautifully compiled in a stunning four-color format. The book also contains quotes from the legion of fans of the movie, including Joan Jett, Billy Corgan, Courtney Love, Juliette Lewis, Jinkx Monsoon, Duff McKagan, Anna Sui, Karen O, Trixie Mattel, Peaches, Norman Reedus, Cassandra Peterson (aka Elvira, Mistress of the Dark), and many, many more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

When the directors of Pulp Fiction and Desperado joined forces in 1996, nobody expected the chaos that followed. From Dusk Till Dawn is part crime thriller, part vampire splatterfest, and entirely unforgettable. This week, the Born to Watch crew sinks their teeth into the film that turned George Clooney from TV doctor to Hollywood icon.Whitey, Damo and Gow hit the road to El Rey, cocked, loaded, and possibly armed with a "dick gun." The boys dive straight into the movie's outrageous tonal shift: one moment it's a gritty outlaw chase, the next it's a full-blown blood-soaked vampire brawl. Half road movie, half horror comedy, From Dusk Till Dawn remains one of cinema's wildest left-turns – and the lads can't get enough of it.They reminisce about seeing it for the first time, back when nobody knew the twist. Gow remembers sitting in a dark cinema thinking it was just a stylish Tarantino heist until all hell literally broke loose. Damo recalls wearing out the VHS tape twice in a row, and Whitey laughs about taking five unsuspecting mates to see it just to watch their jaws drop. This is movie memory at its finest: the mid-'90s, Empire magazines, no spoilers, no internet, just word-of-mouth madness.The conversation slides quickly from Clooney's charisma to Quentin Tarantino's unnerving performance as Richie Gecko, possibly his best acting turn. Damo describes him as “quiet, creepy and dangerous,” while Gow compares his brotherly chemistry with Clooney to "a bomb about to go off." The trio agree Clooney oozes movie-star presence, Harvey Keitel grounds the chaos, and Juliette Lewis somehow still looks 23 for the next 20 years.And then there's Salma Hayek. The fellas do not hold back on the famous Titty Twister dance scene, the snake, the stumble, the hips, and Tarantino's now-infamous foot fetish. Whitey confesses it's "maybe the sexiest dance in movie history," while Damo says it's proof every song has an inner stripper. The music, the lighting, the moment – pure '90s cinematic magic.Between the beer, blood, and banter, the boys celebrate everything that makes From Dusk Till Dawn such gleeful trash. They quote the immortal "Mexican or domestic?" gag, debate the "ugly snorbs" among the vampire horde, and burst into laughter, recalling Clooney's moral compass, the bad guy with the good heart. There's genuine affection for how the film refuses to play by any rules.In Film School for F-Wits, Whitey goes full academic, calling the film the "ultimate tonal shift" and challenging the others to name a movie that turns harder or faster. Damo nominates a few classics, Gow brings his rugby grand-final energy, and the chat devolves into biscuits, Monte Carlos and Venetians, proof that even when the vampires attack, Born to Watch stays on brand.From the "popcorn popping in the servo" opening to Cheech Marin's triple role and the legendary Titty Twister monologue, the episode is wall-to-wall chaos, nostalgia and laughs. By the time the guys hit The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, it's clear this flick isn't high art, but it's pure fun. A 7.2 on IMDb? The crew say it's worth every drop of blood and beer.So grab a cold one, reload your dick gun, and join Whitey, Damo and Gow as they revisit From Dusk Till Dawn, the movie that proved you never know what's lurking inside the bar until the sun goes down.#BornToWatch #FromDuskTillDawn #GeorgeClooney #QuentinTarantino #RobertRodriguez #SalmaHayek #90sMovies #MoviePodcast #FilmNerds #MovieNight

Send us a textSPECIAL NOTE: SEASON 15 OF THE GOOD, THE POD AND THE UGLY CELEBRATES THE USE OF THE PRACTICAL AND DIGITAL EFFECT KNOWN AS THE SQUIB. IRL GUN VIOLENCE IS INTOLERABLE AND RENOUNCED BUT... CINEMATIC VIOLENCE WILL BE CELEBRATED IN A WAY THAT MAY DISTURB SOME LISTENERS. Yo, put the da bomb rap-rock mix CD on the Walkman, brush off your fly three-button boxy suit, and get your pre-9/1l cool on fo' shizzle, home skillet, as TGTPTU breaks with its patent-pending temporal pincer movement to cover THE WAY OF THE GUN (2000). Before he (strike as appropriate: ruined / renewed / continued) the Mission Impossible film franchise but after winning the Best Original Screenplay Oscar for 1995's The Usual Suspects, Christopher McQuarrie would write and direct this (strike as appropriate: possible war crime / secret masterpiece / neo-Western action-thriller satire), and land in director jail. Unlike a highly successful sequel he'd write and produce two decades later also with “gun” in the title, McQuarrie's directorial debut was not “top,” nor would it receive any Academy noms for Orig Screenplay or Best Pic. Instead, it would be twelve years before McQuarrie would direct again when he'd write and direct Jack Reacher (the one ((strike as appropriate: starring / miscast)) with Tom Cruise). The Way of the Gun was purportedly McQuarrie's attempt to unmake the antihero criminal movie popular by the late-90s by going further than other films had in making its felonious buddy protagonists not just unlikeable but reprehensible. Selected for the job, after many turned down the role, Ryan Phillippe who got a haircut and adopted a voice for the role of Parker (no relation to the Richard Stark series) and the always magnetic Benicio del Toro as Longbaugh. These two petty but also not-so-petty criminals happen upon a scheme during their brief road trip's peeing in bottles, punching women, and distributing sperm to banks for quick cash, a plan involving kidnapping for ransom a surrogate mother named Robin (played by Juliette Lewis) who SPOILER ALERT whose baby doctor is her baby daddy who, despite having a different last name, is SPOILER the son of the expected father of the embryo that didn't take and the plot gets (strike as appropriate: purposively complex / even dumber / more twisted / majorly buggin') from there. Another Lewis, pod favorite and Juliette's father Geoffrey, is introduced (strike as appropriate: losing / winning) at a complex variation of Russian roulette as part of James Caan's Members-only posse who mount up for the film's squibbiest moment, a finale at a Mexican cantina and whorehouse. O.G. host Ken casts Jonah Hill as Jonah Hex in a McG remake of the film while hosts Thomas and Ryan introduce Natural Born Killers into the chat, wondering if it not The Friends of Eddie Coyle for the 90s. Guest host Jack defends the movie's inclusion in Season 15 as all that and a bag of chips and not wiggity wiggity wack. Next week is Robocop. Psych! My bad. That's in the pairing after next.

Dave Elitch has been teaching privately for over 20 years and has developed a reputation as the technique/body mechanic specialist for drum set. He has helped many of the world's best players as well as top educators "get out of their own way" by being as efficient as possible in regards to conservation of motion and energy.The more we're able to remove our bodies from the equation and let the instrument do the work, the more we can relax. The more relaxed you are, the better your time, tone and feel will be.

We're using our 1988 episode to finally wrap up our Backs of Life series, in which we review every backdoor pilot episode of classic 80s sitcom The Facts of Life. And this final two-part backdoor pilot from April 1988 is actually the end of the whole show! (Farewell, Tootie...) We start with a fleeting glimpse of the regular cast (which by this point also includes Australian moppet Pippa), but soon we're solidly in backdoor pilot territory. Eastland, the girls' old school, is in danger of closing, so Blair buys the place, and welcomes boys to enroll as well as girls. Then we see a whole new crop of young Eastland students, including some future stars: Juliette Lewis, Mayim Bialik, and Seth Green! Did this backdoor pilot lead to another beloved long-running series? Of course not. But does it end with the girls meeting a giant chicken? Well, kids, sometimes the world really seems to be living up to our dreams. The Flopcast website! The ESO Network! The Flopcast on Facebook! The Flopcast on Instagram! The Flopcast on Bluesky!
