Remake de la magistral "El infierno del odio", de Akira Kurosawa, el film de Lee se centra en cómo un famoso dirigente de una discográfica lidia con el secuestro de su hijo.

July 4th, 2023 a 19 year old guy from Brazil, named Pedro, goes viral. Pedro's got a bob. He's also just been arrested for child endangerment and is somehow connected to another group in Brazil that was arrested after planning to attack a Lady Gaga concert. They wanted to go there, kill everyone and perform satanic rituals and sacrifices for everyone to see. Then a 14 year old in Sweden gets arrested for attacking a woman with a knife.During his arrest the only statement he makes is, “terror is not about age.” In Australia a 28 year old man gets arrested.In Romania, another teenager faces arrest after making 450 bomb threats to schools, hospitals, and government entities in the US. Is this a butterfly effect? Where one persons actions set off a chain of events that set off another persons actions?Is this some sort of trend?How are they all connected? The FBI defines this organization as a terrorist extremist group.They call themselves the 764 cult. Run by a bunch of teenagers in their parents house… Full show notes at rottenmangopodcast.com

Send us a textOn the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are out for revenge after being locked up for way too damn long. We watched the 2003 film from Park Chan-wook, Oldboy.I think it's safe to say that this is the only movie in existence that suggests that being forcibly imprisoned for fifteen years without any explanation is somehow not the worst thing that could happen to a person. It's quite the feat.If you thought that our previous fucked-up movie episode was, indeed, really messed-up, then prepare yourself for this one. It's a heck of a wild ride.(Recorded on June 30, 2025)Links to Stuff We Mentioned:Oldboy - The Movie Database (TMDB)Oldboy trailer - YouTubeChoi Min-sik — The Movie Database (TMDB)Yoo Ji-tae — The Movie Database (TMDB)Kang Hye-jung — The Movie Database (TMDB)Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance (2002) — The Movie Database (TMDB)Lady Vengeance (2005) — The Movie Database (TMDB)I Saw the Devil (2010) — The Movie Database (TMDB)Marvel's Daredevil (TV Series 2015–2018) — The Movie Database (TMDB)Follow Us:Give us a rating and review on Apple Podcasts!Sean's Letterboxd profile!Steven's Letterboxd profile!Our Buzzsprout site!Our Instagram profile!Support the show

Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we explore some of cinema's biggest box office failures and decide if they deserve a second chance. In this week's episode, the gang sadly bids farewell to Re-May-ke month with an American remake of a beloved Korean classic. Grab your hammer and enjoy some dumplings as Troy and Brad discuss Spike Lee's 2013 film, Oldboy. Remaking Park Chan-wook's masterpiece is a bold move, but with a talented director like Spike Lee at the helm, one would expect this neo-noir to be a success. Unfortunately, critics and audiences largely overlooked its theatrical release, and it only earned $5 million against a $30 million budget. Despite its failure at the box office, does this film deserve a second chance? Download and find out!Oldboy (2013) is directed Spike Lee and stars Josh Brolin, Elizabeth Olsen, and Sharlto CopleyNot A Bomb has plenty of news designs in our Merch store!
