Tonight we're chatting with Nick Roth, writer and co-director of the bloody horror comedy Hanky Panky, which just came out on Apple TV, Amazon Prime, and Google Play, and which Kristy Puchko of Mashable recently called a "gleefully absurd avalanche of silliness," and which a random person on Letterboxd described as "an extremely dumb movie that I enjoyed immensely." We also talk about the WGA strike and getting Hollywood back to work-- and what you can do to create your own projects when you need to.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/castle-of-horror-podcast--4268760/support.

WELCOME, one and all, to the long-awaited premiere of season 4! Today, your good ol' host, Shift Orion, is joined by Nick Roth and Lindsey Haun. Shift and Nick met while wandering around in the howling abyss of social media. Nick was looking for podcasts to talk about his new movie, Hanky Panky, and Shift was looking for inspiration to reboot this show. So Nick hailed Lindsey to join Shift for a chat about this fantastic, whacky, elevated, innovative film made with love under crazy conditions. And they also talk about other things like Nick and Lindsey's kids, Nick's upcoming haunted dreidel film, Lindsey's dark and vague works in progress, and Shift's upcoming sci-fi about an average white American man who gets knocked up by an alien parasite just after landing his dream job and has flashbacks to that one time he tried to convince his teenage girlfriend to not have an abortion.  We hope you enjoy this episode and then go watch Hanky Panky on Tubi! Special thanks to Gina Mangiaracinage for hooking it up with the functioning Internet that carried this episode to your ear holes while my Internet was not working. Nick & Lindsey, Co-Directors:  Hanky Panky marks the feature debut of frequent collaborators and future Hollywood power couple Nick and Lindsey. Lindsey is a gold-record winning singer/songwriter, an actor and horror icon (Village of the Damned, Trueblood, Shrooms, Color of Friendship), and a director of several award-winning short films and music videos. She is repped by Bohemia Group. Nick is a former middle-school substitute Latin teacher, current pun factory, and film and television writer who most recently wrote on ABC sitcom American Housewife. He is repped by Zero Gravity.   About HANKY PANKY  Logline: A man and his talking handkerchief save the world from an evil top-hat, and also learn to love. Genre: Puppets and Blood. Runtime: 86 minutes, 4 of which is a fight scene between a napkin and a hat. Full Synopsis: When sweet and quirky ayahuasca marriage counselor Diane mistakenly invites the wrong “Sam” to a retreat she's co-hosting with friends and family at an isolated snowy mountain cabin, instead of her best friend's sister Samantha showing up, she gets Sam, a socially anxious oddball who has brought his best friend, Woody, a foul-mouthed talking handkerchief Sam believes only he can hear, and who is sexually aroused by cleaning up messes. Diane is Sam's opposite, but it's love at first sight. The only thing that stands between them is that right away everyone in the cabin starts being mysteriously murdered, and the whole vacation quickly descends into a zany pandemonium of cults, psychedelics, aliens, and, as Woody himself puts it, delicious chaos. Short Synopsis: A socially anxious oddball and his best friend, a foul-mouthed talking handkerchief who is sexually aroused by cleaning up messes, must confront an inter-dimensional evil in order to save the world and find true love.

No matter how deeply you've dived into horror comedies, I can assure you that you've never seen anything quite like this... the comedy equivalent of a Jackson Pollock... sensational... an absolute avalanche of silliness... “ —Kristy Puchko, Mashable https://mashable.com/article/hanky-panky-movie-2024-review   "Hanky Panky is a delightfully unserious horror movie crammed with comedy." ––Becca James, Chicago Reader https://chicagoreader.com/film/review-hanky-panky/   "Hanky Panky is a genre-bending rollercoaster that seamlessly blends elements of comedy and horror, all while descending to a new level of insanity… A surreal success in ambitious independent filmmaking." ––Smrithika Majukar, Film Ireland https://filmireland.net/2024/04/08/review-hanky-panky/   "Cheap, Dumb, Delightful... Joyous. It's a silly movie that just wants to make its audience smile, and it succeeds." ––Kyle Logan, Screen Anarchy https://screenanarchy.com/2024/04/hanky-panky-review-cheap-dumb-delightful.html "Hanky Panky is the stupidly funny horror-comedy of the year... wacky, wonderful, and at times completely bonkers." ––Romey Norton, Film Focus Online https://www.filmfocusonline.com/post/hanky-panky-review "It may be a little too strange and outlandish for some, but those who are willing to embrace its unashamed weirdness and its brazen nonconformity are in for a great time." ––David Gelmini, Dread Central https://www.dreadcentral.com/reviews/494104/hanky-panky-review-seth-green-voicesan-evil-hat-in-absurd-new-comedy/?amp "It's silly, it's wild, and it's filthy in all the right ways, made by a team with a clear love of film... No one should deprive themselves of an opportunity to see a napkin learn about the power of friendship." ––Jules Caldeira, Film Inquiry https://www.filminquiry.com/hanky-panky-2023-review/?amp=1 FILM FESTIVAL SCREENINGS & AWARDS LA Comedy Film Festival Official Selection Int'l Independent Film Awards Best Actor (Jacob DeMonte-Finn) Best Supporting Actor (Seth Green) Best Actress (Ashley Holliday Tavares) Best Supporting Actress (Clare Grant) Best Casting Best Directing Best Narrative Feature World Premiere Film Awards Best First Time Filmmaker Best Comedic Script Best Comedy Feature Best Production Design Judges' Choice Central Coast Int'l Film Festival Official Selection Beast Feature Film Athens Int'l Monthly Art Film Festival Best Debut Feature Film Golden State Film Festival Official Selection Best Supporting Actor (Seth Green) Robinson Film Awards Best Comedy Feature Golden Lion Int'l Film Festival Best Actress (Ashley Holliday Tavares) Best Actor (Jacob DeMonte-Finn) Best Comedy Feature Best International Feature Film Los Angeles Film Awards Best Indie Feature Best New Director Italian Comedy Festival International Comedy Prize Five Continents Int'l Film Festival Official Selection Best Director Best Screenplay Best Actress (Ashley Holliday Tavares) Best Art Direction Best Team Performance The IndieFEST Film Awards Best Feature Film Best Ensemble Cast Best Special Effects Cinema Cappuccino Best Feature Film Gothamite Monthly Film Awards Best Feature Film Indie Vegas Film Festival Official Selection Best Supporting Actress (Clare Grant) LA Cinema Festival of Hollywood Official Selection Best Narrative Feature Best Director Best Actor (Jacob DeMonte-Finn) Kalakari Film Festival Official Selection Fortean Film Festival Official Selection MegaFlix Film Awards Official Selection Silver Wing Int'l Film Festival Best Narrative Feature Dreamz Catcher Int'l Film Festival Best Feature Film Independent Horror Movie Awards Best Feature Best Actor (Jacob DeMonte-Finn) Best Humor Best Kill Top Indie Film Awards Best Humor Best Original Idea Kalakari Film Festival Certificate of Achievement    Directors' Statement: Hanky Panky was inspired by the way certain zany comedies like Wet Hot American Summer and Caddyshack seemed to capture the energy of locking their whole cast and crew together in, say, a summer camp, or a coke-orgy fueled hotel in the middle of a Florida hurricane with Chevy Chase -- and then somehow get that energy on screen. We shot Hanky Panky in Lindsey's dad's cabin in the mountains above Heber, Utah, where the entire cast and crew crammed together, at 8,000ft of elevation, during the most intense blizzard ever recorded there. It was a true anarcho-communist-guerilla production: literally no budget, nobody got paid, everyone chipped in for food and drugs, and we all cooperatively own the film now. We shot it on a camera our team won with a short film at Slamdance in 2015. A friend who shoots porn let us borrow his lights. By far our biggest expense was that Lindsey backed her car into Nick's in the blizzard and knocked out a headlight, so that did cost us like $900 to fix. It was crazy. Everyone went a little bit crazy. Some of us went a lot a bit crazy. It's our hope that a bunch of that fun, contagious craziness has ended up on the screen.

Kristy Puchko — film critic, entertainment reporter, and the film editor at Mashable — was nine years old in 1992, and was probably entirely too young to see most of the dark, weird, horny movies that ended up shaping her warped mind at that age. Let's look back at them! (This episode is sponsored by the New York Film Festival.)

Lindsay and Madison discuss con-artist Bertha Heyman, as well as how you can seemingly make it as long as you have “confidence,” that it's never okay to fat-shame someone (even if they're an asshole), and how you can find a new career even after a life of crime.

How a riot in Manhattan reconfigured a New York exploitation classic – and American politics for half a century. John G. Avildsen's 1970 New York drama was originally titled The Gap, dramatizing the white-hot topic of the generation gap through the story of a white-collar businessman searching for his hippie daughter in New York's seedy youth underbelly. But when it came out in that summer, its ad campaign focused on the supporting character of a loudmouth, bigoted hardhat, and it had also been retitled after that character: Joe. In this episode, we'll look at how the May 1970 “Hardhat Riot” in downtown New York City prompted not only that change, but a shift in electoral norms and party politics that continues to this day. And we'll look at Milos Forman's Taking Off, released the following year, which told a similar story of well-to-do parents searching for their hippie daughter in Gotham, but in a very different way (and with a very different outcome). Our guests are author and historians Jefferson Cowie and Derek Nystrom, filmmaker Larry Karaszweski, and film writers Kristy Puchko and Zach Vasquez.

Log on with Kristy Puchko and Angie Han as they rank the 7 best movies ever made about world wide web!

Mike King talks with Albert Birney and Kentucker Audley about STRAWBERRY MANSION. t’s 2035, and the government is taxing our dreams. Dream about a buffalo last night? That’ll run you 25 cents. Plus 17 cents for the violin. And that’s on top of all the ads and product placement interrupting your REM. James Preble is a mild-mannered government lackey, assigned to audit the dreams of an eccentric artist who’s been dodging her payments. The elderly Bella welcomes James into her remote farmhouse, where he sets about combing through decades of her recorded dreams, prepared to nickel and dime her. But as he wades into her unconscious, he meets and falls for her younger self. As James pursues the young Bella through a mind-melting fantasia of dreamscapes, he uncovers some unsettling conspiracies infiltrating our subconscious. A true psychedelic charmer, Strawberry Mansion boasts a dazzling handcrafted aesthetic, conjuring its unique universe through colorful props and costumes rather than lifeless CGI. The thrift-shop look is a supreme asset, creating a cinematic experience with more visual imagination and wit per frame than any generic blockbuster. 2021 Sundance Film Festival. “Enchanting, mind-bending and heartwarming… feels like walking through another’s dream. Simply put, Strawberry Mansion is sensational, strange, and sophisticatedly sweet” (Kristy Puchko, rogerebert.com). (MK)

These jeans literally slay. Murder pants are devouring chic influencers and terrorizing an upscale boutique in the most original creature feature in years.

It's our first serial killer, peeps and creeps! This week, Kristin tells Mogab the story of Belle "Triflers Need Not Apply" Gunness, the most prolific female serial killer In American history.Belle was a true success story - she was able to overcome the struggles of being a woman immigrating to the US on her own in the late 1800’s. She managed to make a very comfortable life for herself by employing such tactics as arson, insurance fraud, and lots of good ol’ fashioned murder. And many people, including me, think she got away with all of it.

Pajiba Film Editor Kristy Puchko joins the crew to help us cover some of the recent Netflix shows we've been enjoying (or, in Dan's case, frantically watching half an episode right before the podcast), including The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina (7:40), The Stranger (26:10), You (37:56), and October Faction (53:05). And as always, we play a fun game (1:13:21) and end our longest episode ever with a rant (1:29:59)! Hope you enjoy the show, and if (when) you do, maybe rate and review us wherever you're listening!

Hey, folks! It's time for a brand-new episode of Mousterpiece Cinema, and even though Scott and Josh are getting close to the end of the podcast's run, they've still got some big titles to talk about. On this episode -- our first of December, and fourth-to-last overall -- Scott and Josh are talking about what's surely going to be the biggest animated film of the year, Frozen II. They're joined by return guest Kristy Puchko of Pajiba to talk about the massive hit in which we learn even more...kind of...about Queen Elsa of Arendelle. Is this film a solid follow-up to the 2013 phenom? Does the mythology make sense? And does this film do right by fans who see Elsa as a queer-coded character? We've got a lot to talk about this week, so get to listening right now!

Hey, folks! It's time for a brand-new episode of Mousterpiece Cinema, and this is a very special and unexpected one. If it was a normal week, Josh and Scott would be sitting down to talk about a film, but oh no! Scott came down with a nasty cold that destroyed his voice, so what is Josh to do? Instead of soldiering on by himself, Josh invites friends of the show Kristy Puchko of Pajiba and Bilge Ebiri of Vulture to talk with him about the 1999 teen comedy 10 Things I Hate About You. As this film hits its 20th anniversary, how well does it hold up? Does the Shakespearean adaptation work well in 2019? Are Heath Ledger and Julia Stiles as charming now as they were back in the day? And what the hell is the failed sequel 10 Things I Hate About Life? Listen to the new show to find out!

This week we discuss the fact that Kensington Palace revealed that trolls are targeting both duchesses, the ridiculous rumors that Duchess Meghan isn’t really pregnant and the beautiful angel-faced male dancer, Pepe, whom Celine Dion calls her best friend. We also talk about the horrific hate crime against Jussie Smollet, and how hard it can be to cover those kinds of stories. We cover the SAG Awards and our Oscar predictions and we review A Star is Born, which we don’t think is Oscar-worthy, and The Wife, which we both loved and hope Glenn Close finally receives an Oscar for.  (While I don’t think we have any spoilers for those movies, we do discuss the characters and some scenes in ASIB.) We also have a special feature with spoiler-free comments from Kristy Puchko at Pajiba about her love for the movie Serenity. I saw Serenity over the weekend and I absolutely loved it! I got some fellow movie-goers to talk to me about it afterwards and one awesome lady said she was happy to see Matthew McConaughey’s butt. Our user questions this week are about the celebrity couples we love and would hate to see break up and the celebrity couples we miss covering. We end with our weekly feature, the comment of the week. Stories, photos and memes we discuss can be found at Celebitchy.com under our podcast section and https://www.celebitchy.com/?p=608499 Music credit:  A.A. Alto, Meydan and via PremiumBeat

Sources: A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens "Why Charles Dickens Wrote A Christmas Carol" by Kat Eschner, The Smithsonian Magazine "The Real Reason Charles Dickens Wrote A Christmas Carol" by John Brioch, Time "Charles Dickens was a Real Life Ghostbuster and a Member of the World's Oldest Paranormal Research Group" by Charlotte Ahlin, Bustle "Fathering Christmas: Charles Dickens and the (Re)Birth of Christmas" by Tom Pold, www.victorianweb.org "Literature - Charles Dickens" by The School of Life "Person of the Week: Dick Boyd" by Jim Doblin   Scrooged (1988) "Scrooged is Still the Perfect Christmas Movie 30 Years Later" by Rob Harvilla, The Ringer "22 Fun Facts about Scrooged" by Jennifer M.

Lee Israel serves as the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come for Oriana. Kristy Puchko of Pajiba and Aly Semigran join her to discuss the literary forger, author of the beautifully sharp memoir "Can You Ever Forgive Me?" and subject of the equally beautiful and sharp movie of the same name starring Melissa McCarthy and Richard E. Grant. Oh also the Grift of the Week is these dummies: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/n-j-woman-alleged-gofundme-scam-was-duped-boyfriend-homeless-n937986

Hey, folks! Scott and Josh are excited to welcome you into a very special episode of Mousterpiece Cinema. In fact, you might even say that this episode is supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! That's because, as you have already guessed, we're revisiting the 1964 classic Mary Poppins on this week's show. Scott and Josh are joined by special return guest Kristy Puchko of Pajiba to talk about all things Poppins, from the beloved music (and some of its darker elements) to the performances from Julie Andrews and Dick Van Dyke, to which of the segments is equivalent to a scene from Singin' In The Rain, to whether or not the idea of a sequel 50-plus years later is a good idea considering how charming this movie is. Check out the new show now!

This week Louie and Gavin welcome professional film and culture critic Kristy Puchko to talk about the career of one of her favorite actors: Michael Keaton! From Batman to Birdman, Keaton has done it all, but what did we pick for our 1 star and 5 reviews? If you have any questions/comments/suggestions for the show, follow us on twitter @TheMixedReviews, like us on Facebook, or e-mail us at reviewsmixed@gmail.com  Don't forget to subscribe to us on iTunes, Spotify, Stitcher Radio, or Google Play Music.

On the 68th AwardsWatch Oscar podcast I am joined by Kristy Puchko, Managing Editor of Pajiba and we dig into what we saw at the fall festivals, what we liked and didn't like with Kristy talking a bit about her recent trip to Fantastic Fest. We land on a long conversation about A Star Is Born, talking about elements both good and bad and the differences between festival audiences and audiences at large.  Then we move into talk about the year of 'skater' movies including Skate Kitchen, Mid90s and how much we both love Minding the Gap, how great Hereditary is (and what it's like to sit next to Kristy at a movie) and that Toni Collette should be a real Oscar contender.  We also talk at length about stories with female and queer perspective including Eighth Grade and the upcoming Can You Ever Forgive Me? and the fantastic performances from Melissa McCarthy and Richard E. Grant.  Kristy gets super excited to talk about The Favourite, most especially the costumes (which makes sense comes from a fashion maven such as herself). Making sure we get some Oscar talk in there, we talk about the now defunct Popular Oscar category and why it was a bad idea.  This podcast runs 1h 50m with music. Opening music: "Sulk" by TR/ST Closing music: "New York City By Day" by Thomas Newman from the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack of Desperately Seeking Susan    

We kick off our October programming with a look at two allegedly family-friendly favorites ... featuring women who want to eat children.  We watched The Witches and Hocus Pocus!   Sources: The Witches: www.roalddahl.com "Gobsmacked!: Memories of Editing The Witches" by Stephen Roxburgh "20 Banned Books That May Surprise You" by Molly Driscoll, The Christian Science Monitor "In Which Consider the Macabre Unpleasantness of Roald Dahl" by Alex Carnevale.

Hey, folks! Get suited up, because it's time for a brand-new episode of Mousterpiece Cinema, and this one is going to be particularly...super. That's right, Scott and Josh are headed back to Municiberg to talk about Pixar's new film Incredibles 2. (Why, Brad Bird? Why have you forsaken the "The" in the title of this sequel?) Your hosts are joined by Kristy Puchko of Pajiba to talk about the biggest movie from Pixar (at least at the box office). It's been 14 years since the original film--does this movie pay off on the promise of the 2004 film? Has it been too long? Is this a case where, like Finding Dory, Pixar should have left well enough alone, or is this more like Toy Story 2 or Toy Story 3? Only one way to find out--check out the new show!
