Podcasts about midnite cinema

This week, we are trapped inside and beset by unnameable horrors in a dark corner of the Great White North. Sammy from the Gentlemen's Guide to Midnite Cinema pops in to discuss Pontypool (2008), directed by Bruce McDonald, followed by the notorious SOV act of lunacy, Things (1989), directed (if that's what you can call it?) by Andrew Jordan. As well as pondering the profound cultural influence of language as a thing in and of itself, we also tackle some other philosophical questions such as: The possibly Saxon origins of the word, "fart". Kettle or urn, which is better? And just what the hell does "no cap" mean? It's not really possible to spoil Things (because it's not really possible to understand the plot, assuming there is one), but we will call out Spoiler Territory for Pontypool. If you want to skip ahead from that point, you can rejoin the conversation at the 1:33:23 mark to avoid spoilers. Want to get in touch?

Welcome to your favorite spooky podcast about some of scariest cinematic bombs! On this week's thrilling episode, the gang bids a bittersweet farewell to the spookiest season of the year—yes, Spooktober is coming to a close. But hold on to your hats, folks, because this episode might have more tricks than treats! Our intrepid crew takes us deep into the realm of science fiction as they discuss the 2007 horror film The Invasion. Now, this motion picture marks the fourth cinematic adaptation of the 1955 novel “The Body Snatchers,” and stars none other than Nicole Kidman, alongside a pre-007 Daniel Craig, as they battle a world teeming with—you guessed it—body-snatching aliens! Joining the crew for this out-of-this-world discussion is Sammy from the GGTMC, and let me tell you, folks, things get wild fast. The conversation spirals into a chaotic frenzy—one so bizarre, it's been described as, and I quote, ‘like someone farting into your can of oatmeal.' Now, if that doesn't paint a picture, I don't know what will! So, dim the lights and prepare yourself for this light-hearted yet outlandish dive into The Invasion. It's all happening on the Not A Bomb Podcast—where absurdity reigns supreme, and the scares? Well, they're a little less than terrifying. Stay tuned!

Happy Halloween, everybody! On this spooky edition of Not A Bomb, the “Breaking Brad” crew discusses the sequel to one of the greatest horror films of all time, Fright Night Part 2. Picking up 3 years after the events of the first film, Fright Night Part 2 finds Charley Brewster and vampire hunter Peter Vincent battling a brand new cadre of sexy vampires. Fright Night Part 2 was given less of a budget than the original film and struggled to get theatrical distribution. The critics were also harsh on the sequel and the vampire flick didn't really find an audience until it was released on VHS. Oh…and a highly publicized murder of a studio executive might have played a part in this films rough distribution cycle. Yeah, this movie had some dark things happening behind the scenes. Does Fright Night Part 2 live up to the original or has this horror franchise lost its bite? Spoiler alert: someone called this thing a bomb! You won't be able to guess who!Fright Night: Part 2 is directed by Tommy Lee Wallace and stars Roddy McDowall, WIlliam Ragsdale, Traci Lind, and Julie Carmen.

Welcome back to another exciting episode of Not A Bomb podcast. Normally, this is the podcast where we go back and re-examine some of the biggest bombs in cinematic history and see if they deserve a second chance. However, this week we've decided to invoke the “Don Lee Clause.” What is the “Don Lee Clause?” Without using a ton of legal jargon, we reserve the right to discuss any Don Lee film regardless of the movie's critical or box office success. This week's show is a full house as we bring a ton of guests to discuss 2018's Champion. Sammy from the GGTMC, Jose from Watch/Skip+, and professional Don Lee cosplayer John Nance take time out of their busy schedule to discuss this Korean sports film centered around competitive arm wrestling. We kick things off talking about some of our favorite sports films that make our eyeballs sweat (because guys don't cry). Eventually, everybody spends ample time gushing over this amazing film that showcases the acting prowess of Korea's most popular movie star of 2023. Please do yourself a favor and watch Champion! This film deserves all the attention!Champion is directed by Kim Yong-wan and stars Don Lee (Ma Dong-seok), Kwon Yul, and Han Ye-ri.

On this episode, the gang tackles “Legendary” director Dario Argento's adaption of Dracula in 2012's Dracula 3D. Oh boy. There is so much to unpack in this one: Asia Argento's “performance”, a CGI praying mantis, color changing trains, a sleepwalking Rutger Hauer performance, and garlic bullets.

On this week's episode, the guys are joined by Sammy from the GGTMC and Jose from Watch/Skip+ to discuss 2020's science fiction film - Underwater.

“In brightest day, in blackest night, no evil shall escape this podcast.”Welcome back to your favorite podcast about some of Hollywood's biggest bombs. On this week's episode, the guys welcome back Sammy from the GGTMC to discuss 2011's superhero film - Green Lantern. As one of the biggest box-office bombs of all time, it was only a matter of time before the gang tackled Hal Jordan and his magical ring. With a production budget of $200 Million, Green Lantern was marred by director/actor conflicts, less than stellar CGI, several rewrites, and extended scenes of expository dialogue. Somehow, the guys discuss all those issues and Mutated Ron Jeremy! The more important question….did anybody actually enjoy the film?

On this week's episode of Not A Bomb, the guys do a complete 180 from last week and discuss one of the most thought-provoking love story films - The Fountain. Coming six years after Requiem for a Dream, Aronofsky effortlessly creates a heartbreaking romance between Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz. This film is too philosophical for a two-person podcast, so the guys welcome Sammy from the GGTMC back to the show. Listen as the gang spoils the heck out of this film and discusses the deep, philosophical subtext within each frame. Don't worry! This episode isn't just an academic deliberation on man's mortality. They also derail the conversation with thoughts on white tree sap, intimate sex scenes in bathtubs that cause water damage to hardwood floors, “naturalistic upper male nudity”, and so much more.Timestamps: Intro - (1:35), Box Office Response and Critical Response - (2:52), People Involved - (11:21), Production and Development - (32:15), Commerical Break - (48:06), The Fountain Discussion - (50:05), Is it a Bomb? - (98:50), and Outro - (107:00)The Fountain is directed by Darren Aronofsky and stars Hugh Jackson Rachel Weisz, and Ellen Burstyn.If you want to leave feedback or suggest a movie bomb, please drop us a line at NotABombPod@gmail.com or Contact Us - here.

Welcome back to Not A Bomb Presents: Breaking Brad! Troy, Sammy from the GGTMC, and Jose from the Watch/Skip+ pick some of the worst films imaginable to see if they can break Brad. On this episode, the gang tackles 2003's American musical comedy - From Justin to Kelly. This well-known box office turkey stars American Idol winner, Kelly Clarkson and runner -up, Justin Guarini. From Justin to Kelly is the product of what a boardroom of old white men think happens on spring break. Infamously, From Justin to Kelly is considered one of the worst musicals of all time and has gained a reputation as one of the worst films ever made. Naturally, someone on the podcast loves the film while the others are left wondering why this cash-grab was even made. Was this the film that finally broke Brad?

On this very special episode of Not A Bomb, the gang celebrates their three-year anniversary with a show dedicated to all thing's grindhouse cinema. To cap it off, the guys dive deep into 2007's epic theatrical bomb - Grindhouse. We couldn't celebrate this anniversary without some help. So, we asked Sammy, “The Godfather of Grindhouse,” to join us and puts his knowledge on display. Released as an over three-hour experience, Grindhouse featured two full length films - Planet Terror and Death Proof from Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino. Also, various other directors contributed fake move trailers to capture the traditional grindhouse theatrical experience. Sadly, this unique film experience flopped at the box office and prevented audiences from getting another experiment like Grindhouse for a long time. Before the timestamps, we have one last note. We at Not A Bomb thank you for your support over the past three years! This community is fantastic and we look forward to exploring more epic movie bombs with all of you.Timestamps: Intro - (2:15), Grindhouse Cinema talk - (5:32), Grindhouse Film origin story - (20:20), Box Office Results and Critical Response - (24:57), Why Did it Bomb? - (28:49), Planet Terror Key People - (39:53), Planet Terror Discussion - (42:16), Commercial Break - (69:04), Grindhouse Trailer Talk - (71:44), Death Proof Key People - (75:10), Death Proof Discussion - (79:04), Is it a Bomb? - (110;37), RoboReviewer1000 - (118:00), Shoutouts! - (122:25), and Outro - (132:09)Planet Terror is directed by Robert Rodriguez and stars Rose McGowan, Freddy Rodruguez, Josh Brolin, Marley Shelton, Jeff Fahey, Micheal Biehn, Bruce Willis, Naveen Andrews, Fergie, Tom Savini, Julio Oscar Mechoso, Nicky Katt, Michael Parks, and Quentin TarantinoDeath Proof is directed by Quentin Tarantino and stars Kurt Russell, Zoe Bell, Rosario Dawson, Vanessa Ferlito, Sydney Tamilia Poitier, Tracie Thoms, Rose McGowan, Jordan Lann, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Michael Parks, Quentin Tarantino, James Parks, and Jonathan LoughranIf you want to leave feedback or suggest a movie bomb, please drop us a line at NotABombPod@gmail.com or Contact Us - here.

Welcome back to Not A Bomb Presents: Breaking Brad! Troy, Sammy from the GGTMC, and Jose from the Watch/Skip+ pick some of the worst films imaginable to see if they can break Brad. On this episode, the gang tackles the 1980 Philippine action-comedy spy film - For Y'ur Height Only. A parody of James Bond films and starring Weng Weng as Agent 00, For Y'ur Height Only is cheaply made, horribly edited, poorly paced, and laughably written. But… is there a chance that all four hosts enjoyed it? How many short jokes can be made in one podcast? Was this the film that finally broke Brad?

Welcome back to Not A Bomb Presents: Breaking Brad! Troy, Sammy from the GGTMC, and Jose from the Watch/Skip+ pick some of the worst films imaginable to see if they can break Brad. On this episode, the gang is joined by a few friends from one of the longest running horror podcasts, Night of the Living Podcast, to tackle 2016's B.C. Butcher. Our special guests, Amy and Freddy, picked out this little gem for Brad which was dubbed as "the first prehistoric slasher film." The film is also notable for starring the infamous internet celebrity Kato Kaelin. The director, at the time, was only 17 years old so surely Brad cut her some slack….right? Listen as the episode completely derails into dad jokes, quacks, and Spike Lee. The big question, however…did B.C.

The Boys venture into Dracula's lair to review comedy-action director Chris McKay's high concept twist on the classic Universal monster vampire, "Renfield" starring "Nic Squared" (Nicholas Hoult and Nicholas Cage). Surprise guest Sam U. Rai from our Pod Father podcast "The Gentleman's Guide to Midnite Cinema" drops in, and the palpable energy injection leads to a "kinda spoiler-y, though not so spoiler-y but almost certainly somewhat spoiler-y" Spoiler Free discussion (you've been warned!). Along the way the three amigos happily plus their hearts out - Red resurrects talk of a widely used film buff app, Sammy espouses the everlasting benefits of podcasting, and Cupcake is compelled by the power of another once audience-opener star's new film (mirroring Cage's career in some ways).

Welcome back to your favorite podcast about some of cinema's biggest flops. On this week's episode, the guys are once again joined by Sammy from the GGTMC to discuss 1986's monster adventure film - King Kong Lives. Folks, this is one of the most insane films the podcast has discussed. King Kong Lives is a sequel to the 1976 King Kong, which was a remake of the 1933 original classic. In this sequel most people didn't know existed, we find our beloved monkey receiving a heart implant after being in a coma for 10 years. That's just in the first 15 minutes. Trust us, you can't even guess what happens next! It is truly a “seeing is believing” situation.

The film tells the story of Joe, a middle-aged, divorced white bartender who becomes a nationally syndicated radio host by impersonating a black woman. Loqueesha sparked a philosophical and cultural discussion that no one saw coming. Is Loqueesha one of the worst made films of all time? Yes, but it might actually be trying to say something.

Welcome back to another exciting episode of Not A Bomb. This is the podcast where we go back and reexamine some of the biggest bombs in cinematic history and see if they deserve a second chance. On this week's episode, the guys are joined by Sammy from the GGTMC and Jose from Watch/Skip+ to discuss 1991's action comedy - Hudson Hawk. Starring the legendary Bruce Willis as our titular character, Hudson Hawk leans heavy into the comedy and the works of Leonardo da Vinci. Yeah, this film is pretty bonkers. Audiences and critics didn't “catch the Hawk” on its initial release but the film has become a cult hit. Did our podcast crew enjoy Bruno's vanity project and laugh at all of the silly quips?

On this week's episode, the guys are joined by Sammy from the GGTMC and Jose from Watch/Skip+ to discuss a big box office bomb from 1982, Megaforce. Directed by stuntman legend Hal Needham, Megaforce is best known for explosions, Barry Bostwick's hair, liberal use of ascots, and cringeworthy representation of women in the workplace. Released in a crowded market, Megaforce was quickly dropped from theaters but has since earned a cult following.

Welcome back to Not A Bomb Presents: Breaking Brad! Troy, Sammy from the GGTMC, and Jose from the Watch/Skip+ pick some of the worst films imaginable to see if they can break Brad. On this episode, the gang tackles what is considered to be the worst musical of all time, The Apple (1980). Written and directed by Menahem Golan, The Apple is a biblical, Orwellian, futuristic anti-corporation musical where the evil music label, Boogalow International Music (BIM), tries to sign Adam and Eve….wait sorry…Alphie and Bibi to their record label. What follows is some of the worst music ever created. Oh yeah, and there are hippies for no reason. Don't worry!

Phase yourself into this new episode as the Boys (with special guest Masaki, i.e. "Son of Sam U. Rai" of the Gentleman's Guide to Midnite Cinema) watch/skip the Phase 5 inaugural tentpole (albeit early in the year) event that is Marvel Studios' Ant Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. Hilarity, metaphors to rollercoasters, Red's (incessant) puns, and occasional Cupcake-driven expletives abound as the three decide whether this is quintessential, essential MCU or simply Phase-Filler spectacle that comes off like two other notable sci fi properties (hint: One's on Adult Swim and minus its creator at this point). Masaki reveals a new creative endeavor, The Cinemasochist toasts a rather unique law enforcement entity, and Cupcake live-reveals the winners of a certain, over-the-pond Oscars-like entity (with surprising results).

Welcome to the first episode…or experiment… of Not A Bomb Presents: Breaking Brad! Troy, Sammy from the GGTMC and Jose from Watch/Skip+ pick the worst films imaginable to see if they can break Brad. Sounds similar to other bad movie podcasts or television shows? Well, nobody is in a spaceship and the guys are using real science to determine Brad's psychological state! On this episode, the gang tackles the 2005 horror (?) film - The Gingerdead Man. Notable for Gary Busey starring as the titular Gingerdead Man, this Full Moon Production has some of the worst performances, worst video quality, and worst 2000's fashion your eyes will ever see. Somehow, this film spawns 2 sequels and a fight with an Evil Bong. Yeah, you read that correctly! Does The Gingerdad Man have what it takes to Break Brad? Listen to find out!

On this week's episode of Not a Bomb, the gang throws on their leather chaps and hops on their Harleys as they discuss the under-seen, underappreciated 1991 action film - Stone Cold. This little slice of mayhem stars one of football's most controversial players turned actor, Brian “The Boz” Bosworth! Stone Cold is the most 80's action film released in the early 90's. Since we are dangerously close to Gentlemen's Guide to Midnite Cinema territory, it is only fitting that we welcome back Sammy from the GGTMC.

Let's follow the yellow brick road to the latest episode of Not A Bomb podcast, the show that tackles some of the biggest bombs in cinema history. On this week's episode, the gang talks about lions, tigers, and bears…oh my! Yes, time to discuss one of the strangest bombs of all time, the 1939 musical fantasy - The Wizard of Oz.

The Wizard of Oz is one of the most beloved, popular films of all time but this week marks Masaki's first ever viewing. Find out how the film holds up for a generation raised on spectacle, franchises, and limited output of live-action musicals.

On the terrifying conclusion to the Not a Bomb spooktacular season of horror sequel bombs, the gang welcomes back friend of the show Sammy from the GGTMC to chat about the third installment of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre series - Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III. This episode mostly acts as a two-hour excuse to make dumb jokes about an obscure 80's horror film, Stepfather II: Make Room for Daddy. Yes, you read that title correctly. However, the gang does manage to discuss Chekhov's rock, swamps in Texas, Ken Foree, the problems with filming your movie next to an amusement park, Lone Star State Loonies, and Rob Zombie.Timestamps: Intro - (1:03), Box Office Results and Critical Response - (13:35), Behind the Camera - (21:01), In Front of the Camera - (28:59), Production and Development - (43:00), Break - (55:18), Leatherface Discussion - (58:10), Is it a bomb? - (115:32), Outro - (125:07)Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III is directed by Jeff Burr and stars Kate Hodge, William Bulter, Ken Foree, Tom Hudson, Viggo Mortensen, Joe Unger, and R.A.

Watch/Skip+ presents THE DEFINITIVE "DISCUSSION TO END ALL DISCUSSIONS" OF HALLOWEEN ENDS! If you listen to one breakdown of the final Halloween movie of the David Gordon Green and Blumhouse Trilogy (and we have a spoiler free section and one where we cathartically release the Kraken of spoilers and feels), you MUST get this one in your ears. The Boys are joined by the legendary Sam U. Rai from the Gentleman's Guide to Midnite Cinema and Linus and Harry , the bi-continental hosts of the DeathByDVD podcast. Heading into all things Myers, Linus teases a streaming horror rec, Harry confesses his love for the Universal Monsters, and Sammy names his pick for “Jump Scare the Movie”. And then all proverbial hell breaks loose discussing this very divisive, polarizing, and as of this release, “much hated” sequel. And when all is said and dissected, where each of us falls on this one will surprise you. TRICK OR TREAT! Thumbnail Poster: diamonddead_art_deyzawt (from DeviantArt)

On this week's show, we welcome back Sammy from the GGTMC to discuss 1984's Cloak & Dagger, also known as “baby's first Hitchcock film.” Davey, your typical 80's latchkey kid, is on the search for a video game cartridge with important military secrets. This film is filled with kids in peril, imaginary friends, airport terrorism, and grown men trying to murder children? Yeah, the film gets a little dark in places. The show is an interesting discussion on 80's films, in general and asks the question, “Can nostalgia affect your ability to be critical of a film.”Timestamps: Intro - (1:06), Box Office and Critical Response - (7:05), Behind the Camera - (15:41), In Front of the Camera - (24:59), Production & Development - (45:27), Commercial Break - (54:05) Cloak & Dagger Discussion - (55:45), Is it a Bomb? - (109:47), Listener Feedback - (112:43), Outro - (128:09)Cloak & Dagger is directed by Richard Franklin and stars Henry “Kid from ET” Thomas, Dabney Coleman, and Michael Murphy.

This week, the gangs goes all diselpunk, and discusses 2004's science fiction action-adventure film - Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow. Fan-favorite and host of The Gentlemen's Guide to Midnite Cinema, Sammy, is back to assist in talks about Call Signs, Goopy Paltrow and lead characters with zero chemistry. Also, Troy partied too hard and has no voice but uses his soundboard to enhance his arguments. Additionally, the gang drives into Top Gun: Maverick as a little bonus.

Hey See Hear kats and kittens,If you've been following the group facebook page or listened to the recent 5 minute announcement, you'd have heard that See Hear is on hiatus until April 2020....which is true insofar as we won't be recording anything new until then.   HOWEVER...... Back in 2013, 6 months before Tim, Wendi, Bernie and myself officially started See Hear, the amazing hosts of The Gentlemen's Guide to Midnite Cinema, Will and Sammy (and Todd before he knew he was a host), kindly permitted us to record a bonus episode of the GGTMC (bringing class to the trash since 1977) to talk about a couple of jazz films from the eighties and put it on their feed. Those films are Round Midnight (1986) by director Bertrand Tavernier, and Bird (1988) from Clint Eastwood. We are indebted to the generosity of spirit of these fine gents, for this was the seed that gave way to us starting See Hear.  The lineup for the episode is myself, Tim and the wonderful film and jazz enthusiast, Rodrigo Obon, a (then) regular contributor to the GGTMC community. If you're wanting your music film discussion fix, dig into these archives and hear what we have to say about these slices of jazz cinema. Being a very early podcast recording experience, I apologise that it's not in the style of editing we grew into, but hopefully the discussion is groooooooooooovy enough. Dig It!!!     If you dig what we do, could you please rate us at iTunes or even better, spread the word that the show exists on social media or at your next barbecue, gig, or marathon run so more folks can tune in. For all your genre film needs, subscribe to the brilliant Gentlemen's To Midnite Cinema Podcast or download from ggtmc.com .....don't forget to bring your papers.....   Please join our friendly Facebook group at  http://www.facebook.com/groups/seehearpodcast   Check out the Instagram page at https://www.instagram.com/seehearpodcast/?hl=en   You can send us emails at seehearpodcast@gmail.com to suggest films you'd like us to discuss, give us your thoughts on what we do or anything else music-film related.

Welcome to episode 105 of Love That Album podcast.   It’s been a while since we’ve had a double header on the podcast, but this time around we’re doing just that. My very special guest is the charismatic and semi-regular co-host of the All Time Top Ten podcast, David Daskal. He pointed out that since it had been a while from him previously joining me on LTA, we needed to talk about TWO albums to make up for that time.   We start off with a conversation about the 1994 album from indie rock band The Grays, “Ro Sham Bo”. The band included two ex-members of Jellyfish, Jason Falkner and Jon Brion. With such a pedigree in melodicism, why was this album not huge? We try to make sense of it.   Then Dave and I put on our leisure suits and strut our collective stuff to the 1976 debut album “Too Hot To Handle” by the band Heatwave. Their songwriter Rod Temperton went on to write songs for one of the biggest selling records in pop history. Is “Too Hot to Handle” actually that? Not only do we give our thoughts, but the gentlemanly Will Smith of the Gentleman’s Guide to Midnite Cinema podcast contributes his thoughts about Heatwave. DIG IT!!!!!   How the hell was Eric Reanimator going to find common ground between Heatwave and The Grays for his Album I Love segment? By talking about Men Without Hats, of course….so obvious.   Huge thanks to the wonderful Dave, Will and Eric for being so giving of their time.   You can download the show by searching for Love That Album in the iTunes store or downloading streaming directly from http://lovethatalbum.blogspot.com. Send the show feedback at rrrkitchen@yahoo.com.au (written or mp3 voicemail) or join the Facebook group at http://www.facebook.com/groups/lovethatalbum.   You can hear previous episodes of All Time Top Ten with David Daskal by going through the archives at https://www.mixcloud.com/beneisen/   You can hear Will (along with Sammy and Todd) bringing class to the trash (since 1977) at ggtmc.com or by searching for “Gentlemen’s Guide to Midnite Cinema” in iTunes. If you enjoy what you hear on the podcast, please tell a friend or ten to tune into the podcast.

It’s time for episode 98 of Love That Album. Soul music can be raw or it can be smooth. It can convey emotions of the heart or it can be about confronting social injustice. Above all, soul music is about the groove and making you feel honest emotion….. On this month’s episode I am honoured to be joined again by film and music enthusiast Will Smith, co-host of the magnificent Gentlemen’s Guide to Midnite Cinema podcast (bringing class to the trash since 1977). Will is a huge devotee of soul music, so we decided to introduce each other to three great soul albums and then discuss our thoughts about the music and the artist. In no particular order, those albums are: Soul Power – Curtis Harding Etta James – Rocks The House Darondo – Listen to my Song: The Music City Sessions Emma Donovan and the Putbacks – Dawn Millie Jackson – Caught Up Jackie Shane – Live These albums are diverse and are both old and new. They also are not limited to American geographical boundaries (Emma is Australian, Jackie is an honorary Canadian). However, they all share a sense of honesty and grit.   Eric Reanimator jumps on the soul train (sort of) with his Album I Love segment where he talks about Rev Up: The Best of Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels. There’s surely some high energy soul being covered by Mitch featuring songs previously done by Little Richard, Ray Charles, James Brown. It takes confidence to carry that material off, but Ryder and the Wheels had IT. So get some soul in your bowl (….it rhymes, what can I say?) and join Will, Eric and myself to hear exactly why you need these albums in your life.
