Podcasts about Luigi Cozzi

En este nuevo episodio hemos venido con ganas de una buena italianada, y qué mejor forma de hacerlo que con el señor Luigi Cozzi y su clásico más recordado “Contaminación”. ¿Será una película que más allá de ser una copia de Alien? Solo hay una forma de descubrirlo. ¡A disfrutar! Musica: Astrowind, No Spill Blood, The Gateless Gate, Kevin McCleod, Pulse Emitter

Greek mythology has a way of cycling back. Every generation seems to take a turn with these stories, reshaping them to fit the tools and tastes of the moment. With a new version of The Odyssey directed by Christopher Nolan on the horizon, it feels like a good time to revisit a few earlier attempts. Not the definitive versions. Just four films that each capture a different moment in how the myths were staged.Jason and the ArgonautsDirected by Don Chaffey and brought to life by the stop motion work of Ray Harryhausen, this remains the standard for mythological adventure on film.The skeleton fight is still the showcase. Harryhausen animated seven sword fighting skeletons by hand, frame by frame, matching choreography that had already been filmed with live actors. It took months to complete just a few minutes of screen time. The patience shows. The movement has weight and timing that still feels precise.There is also Talos, the bronze giant, who creaks to life in a way that feels mechanical and ancient at the same time. No digital polish. Just careful craft. The film was not a major hit in 1963, but it built its reputation through television airings and revival screenings. Filmmakers like Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson have pointed to it as an influence.Clash of the TitansNearly twenty years later, Harryhausen returned for what would be his final feature. Released in 1981, the same summer as Raiders of the Lost Ark, it feels like a bridge between eras.Medusa is the standout. Instead of legs she has a serpentine body, and the sequence plays almost like a horror film, full of shadow and flickering light. Harryhausen again handled the creature effects himself, at a time when optical and early digital techniques were starting to change the industry.The cast gives the film a formal tone. Laurence Olivier plays Zeus and Maggie Smith appears as Thetis. There is also Bubo, the small mechanical owl added after the success of Star Wars. Even at the time some viewers were unsure about that addition. It says a lot about where fantasy films were headed in the early 1980s.HerculesDirected by Luigi Cozzi and starring Lou Ferrigno, this version of Hercules leans into spectacle in a way that is sometimes baffling and sometimes charming.Ferrigno had already been known for playing the Hulk on television, so casting him as Hercules made sense on a physical level. The film itself mixes Greek myth with science fiction imagery, including cosmic visuals and creatures that feel closer to Italian fantasy cinema than to Homer.It was part of a cycle of sword and sandal films in the early 1980s, many of them international co productions designed for global markets. The effects are uneven, but there is sincerity here. It commits to its vision without irony.The OdysseyDirected by Andrei Konchalovsky and starring Armand Assante, this two part television adaptation aired in 1997 as an event production.The format allows it to cover more of the journey than most feature films attempt. The Cyclops sequence and the Sirens episode stand out, helped by visual effects that were ambitious for network television at the time. The production won an Emmy for visual effects and reflects a brief period when large scale myth adaptations were being mounted for prime time audiences.Watching it now, you can see both its limits and its effort. It wants to treat the source material seriously, without reducing it to spectacle alone.Taken together, these films show how the same source material can shift with the era. Stop motion craft in the 1960s. Transitional fantasy in the early 1980s. International genre filmmaking. Large scale television in the 1990s.When Nolan releases his Odyssey, it will enter a long line of attempts to translate these myths into something contemporary. Revisiting these earlier versions is a way to see how each generation solved the same problem with different tools.They are worth tracking down. Not because they are perfect, but because each one reflects a moment when someone decided these ancient stories were still worth staging carefully.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

Devin & James are back in the Den, and are go for launch! As we return to our Tour of Italy, this time the action will take us right into the stratosphere with ITALIAN SCIENCE FICTION! We start with the doomed visitors to Mario Bava's PLANET OF THE VAMPIRES, a still underappreciated film that inspired a generation of Sci-Fi writers and directors. We then swing into more action with the utterly bizarre, early body horror, Antonio Margheriti's WILD, WILD PLANET (it's wild enough to deserve it twice in the title). Then we take off for a galaxy far, far away-ish with Luigi Cozzi's Star Wars wannabe, STARCRASH. Finally, we follow up with more Luigi Cozzi with the (occasionally) explosive CONTAMINATION. Strap in, folks... this is gonna be a messy ride.

Feliz Halloween criaturitas de la noche. Esta vez no os traemos un especial muy "brujil" para la noche de... brujas. Vamos a repasar la trilogía de Las tres madres de maestro Dario Argento. Empezando por esas dos obra maestras que son Suspiria (1977) e Inferno (1980) para concluir con la más actual, La terza madre, La tercera madre, que dirigió en 2007. Como extra traemos dos films que satelitan esta trilogía. el primero, una bizarrada de Luigi Cozzi, Il gato nero (1989). Una metapelícula de terror extraña y que hay que ver al menos una vez en la vida. Y como no, cerraremos el programa con la versión de Suspiria de Luca Guadagnino, un remake con cosas interesantes. Todo esto junto a Elton Yonk, Molinski y el sr. Fanlo, muy buena música y mucho diálogos que ya son historia del cine.

The exploitation world of Star Wars rip-offs: you will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. This week, we're joined by part-time Dark Lord of the Sith, Walter Kafka, to check out Starcrash (1978), directed by Luigi Cozzi, and The Man Who Saved the World - better known these days as Turkish Star Wars (1982), directed by Çetin İnanç. In all honesty, we don't think it's possible to spoil these two slices of psychedelic sci-fi wonderment, so there will be no Spoiler Territory this week. Buckle in for intergalactic David Hasselhoff hair, Caroline Munro in a vinyl bikini, diabolical Joe Spinell in a giant clawship and some absolutely mindbending insanity from the otherworldly desertscape of Cappadocia, Turkey.

Dave shows Guy THE BLACK CAT from 1989, not to be confused with the million other films with the same title. This is the one directed by Luigi Cozzi, the Italian b-movie master and charismatic clerk of Dario Argento's Profondo Rosso Store! This film is a sort-of-kind-of meta sequel to Argento's SUSPIRIA and goes to some extremely strange spacey places. Cue vomit, haunted fridges, incongruous rock songs, and random cutaways to black cats!  Follow Show Me Something Wrong on Instagram and Twitter. Show Me Something Wrong theme song by JUNK!

Join us as we unveil a new spinoff series, Exposure Time, where we review new and upcoming films. Our first in this series has us diving into the life and work of the Master of Giallo, Dario Argento in Simone Scafidi's Dario Argento Panico which just premiered on Shudder.

Jon and Dave asked for Star Wars for Christmas but the shops were were all sold out, so instead our nans got us Luigi Cozzi's delightful space opera shambles Starcrash/Scontri stellari oltre la terza dimensione (1978) instead.

Today we're venturing into the B-movie vault to tackle what may well be my favorite Star Wars ripoff in Luigi Cozzi's wildly entertaining Starcrash! This one's got Joe Spinell as a Darth Vader wannabe, Christopher Plummer as the Emperor, The Hoff in one of his earliest roles, and the inimitable Caroline Munro traversing space in a bikini years before Leia would don one on Jabba's barge! This one is a stone cold cult classic. Want to support the channel? https://www.patreon.com/Horrorgeek https://ko-fi.com/thehorrorgeekGet Your Horrorgeek Merch!https://horrorgeek.creator-spring.com/ Purchase Star Crash here: https://amzn.to/3Gh63uBBattle Beyond the Stars: https://amzn.to/40U4X1iDisclaimer: this is an Amazon affiliate link.

Lee, Leah, and their friend and fellow podcaster Gary Hill travel through the cosmos this episode as they check out Luigi Cozzi's "Starcrash" (1978), a fun Italian "Star Wars" rip-off starring Caroline Munro, Marjoe Gortner, Joe Spinell, David Hasselhoff, and Christopher Plummer (!). Sexy costumes, big hair, clunky stop-motion, the lava lamp of death, a hillbilly robot cop, and handy magical powers out of nowhere are just some of things touched upon, as well as listener comments, and what the hosts have watched as of late.

THIS WEEK: Hercules in the Haunted World (1961), Hercules, Prisoner of Evil (1964), Hercules (1983)Hercules is the buffest hunk in classical Roman mythology so it makes sense that the Italians made roughly one billion cheap movies about him. We chose three. The best three? It's difficult to say, but we were able to squeeze in Mario Bava, Ruggero Deodato, and Luigi Cozzi, which is an all-star lineup by our standards. One of the movies has Lou Ferrigno throwing a bear into space too—the universal sign of quality cinema.Support Optimism Vaccine on Patreon

Nel PN1 di martedì 27 giugno, con Miky Boselli e Marco Vignoletti si parla di film di fantascienza all'italiana. Ad approfondire il tema è il regista Luigi Cozzi, conosciuto come Lewis Coates o Cozzilla per il mercato internazionale. Il regista è autore del libro Space Man, che racconta in modo molto appassionato una fantastica stagione per il cinema. Il titolo della pubblicazione è un grande omaggio al film omonimo di Antonio Margheriti, regista tra i promotori principali della fantascienza italiana. «Ho raccontato la storia del cinema in Italia, con tutte le sue stagioni che spiegano il perchè di certi film. Ho poi parlato dei film di fantascienza, che sono molto pochi nella fase del cinema muto, mentre cominciano a farsi numerosi dalla metà degli anni '50 in poi. Spesso venivano etichettati come B movie, di serie b. In verità sono dei capolavori».

The aftermath of Star Wars and the attack of the clones begins... This week James and Matt cover two of the many Star Wars 'inspired' films to hit cinema screens in the wake of the original films success. They take a look at Starcrash, Luigi Cozzi's disco lit Space Opera, along with Jimmy T. Murakami and Roger Corman's Seven Samurai in space, Battle Beyond the Stars.

Adrian Smith joins me as we return to our long-term discussion of the films of Antonio Margheriti. In the 1980's he made several ‘military men on a mission' films for various producers. These movies aped everything from THE DIRTY DOZEN to RAMBO: FIRST BLOOD PART 2 (1985) accomplishing much with meager budgets. Margheriti's expertise in special effect work and miniatures were a major help in keeping costs under control. These sometimes great and sometimes insane effects are part of the fun, especially as we get higher definition prints that allow for certain crazy details to become evident.   CODE NAME: WILD GEESE (1984) was the first of trio of jungle action movies Margheriti made with British actor Lewis Collins in the lead and it is easy to see why Collins was briefly considered to play James Bond. He projects ‘tough guy' hardness well and is a solid actor to boot. This film surrounds him with an international cast including an Oscar winner (Ernest Borgnine) and a couple of classic screen bad guys playing nice (Lee Van Cleef and Klaus Kinski) giving everything a sweaty sheen of near-respectability, even if Kinski is very oddly dubbed. Throw in a ridiculous car chase, a few dozen explosions, gratuitous Mimsy Farmer, a surprise villainous turn and it is easy to overlook the regularly disappearing plot, ill-defined motivations and bizarre effects choices. This one is fun in all the over-the-top ways that 1980's action cinema aimed to be. So, hop into that small helicopter and let's torch some opium fields for exciting but vague reasons! Woo hoo!   The show's email is thebloodypit@gmail.com and we'd love to hear your thoughts on this or any of Antonio Margheriti's films. And join Adrian and I on our other program Wild, Wild Podcast as we start a season focused on Luigi Cozzi! Thanks for listening!

Yes, we've made it to 1979's Italian Star Wars knock-off par excellence, the one and only Starcrash, featuring Caroline Munro in a space bikini and David Hasslehoff with a tight perm.In this episode Adrian and Rod share their unabashed enthusiasm for this silly film, whilst not holding back on just how difficult it is to accurately summarise the plot, even when it's written down in front of you.We would love to hear what you think of this film too.

The coats are killing again...and again...and again...for Luigi Cozzi's 1975 giallo: "The Killer Must Kill Again". An under discussed giallo, past the zenith of the sub-genre, that spends most of its time trying to subvert expectations again...and again...and again. The coats dive into a discussion about their favorite

Vuelve el cine malote por Podcaliptus. Y con canela fina, en esta ocasión traemos Starcrash de Luigi Cozzi. Una copia descarada de Star Wars con sus sables láser, sus robots neuróticos y su estrell... estoooo, "máquina de la muerte". Pero se ha acabado convirtiendo en una fantasía de culto con personalidad propia gracias a elementos como que despejan paradojas espacio-temporales con una frase chorra, Cristopher Plummer tiene la mirada de las cien yardas constantemente mientras está deseando irse a comer pizza, encontramos a David Hasselhoff con caguerillas, a un predicador que se convierte en actor, a un Joe Spinell fantástico dando órdenes genéricas como "¡maten! ¡maten!" así como a la fabulosa (y muy simpática) Caroline Monroe a la que la tuvieron un rato largo colgada boca abajo. Todo ello y mucho más convierte a esta obra en una delicatessen del cine trash. ¿La veis con nosotros?

This week we talk about Luigi Cozzi's deeply, committedly deranged 1989 hallucination The Black Cat. The Black Cat is an unofficial sequel to Dario Argento's Suspiria and Inferno and, more importantly, an inescapable vortex of gobsmacking gore logic, unrepentant fake-outs and guitar-instruction-VHS metal. 

All aboard the Caribbean Lady, but don't drink the coffee! This go around Sam and Dan discuss Luigi Cozzi's trash classic, Contamination! Spoiler level: 3/5 For their cinematic pairings, Sam and Dan also recommend films such as GREAT WHITE and SHIVERS, plus also talk about recent films they've seen including LAKE MUNGO and STRAY DOGS. Next time, Dan and Sam will be discussing Jack Hill's 1975 girl-gang classic, Switchblade Sisters.

On this episode of The Bonus Material Podcast, Thom Carnell & Langley J West talk with model, ballerina, musician, and actress, Barbara Magnolfi. Barbara is best known for her role as the catty Olga in Dario Argento's SUSPIRIA, but she's worked on dozens of terrific films such as Sergio Martino's THE SUSPICIOUS DEATH OF A MINOR, THE SISTER OF URZULA, Ruggero Deodato's CUT AND RUN, and Luigi Cozzi's BLOOD ON MELIES' Moon. We talk about her growing up, being cast by Argento in SUSPIRIA, and we'll go over some important other films in her filmography. After the break, Thom& Langley go over some News, review some trailers, and make a few recommendations.

In Episode 6, Mike and Marty discuss two "classics" from the 80s that tried to cash in on the success of Ridley Scott's blockbuster 1979 film Alien. The films covered are 1980's Contamination from italian maestro Luigi Cozzi, and 1985's Creature from William Malone and featuring the inimitable Klaus Kinski. These are both low-budget, earnest efforts from guys who really really love to make movies, and though neither can be considered a total success, they are both worth your time if you can find enough patience to ignore some of the more glaring problems they each have.Send us your thoughts on the show and recommendations for future episodes to flickersfrom@yahoo.com or flickersfrom@gmail.com.
