“You're the most beautiful, exciting thing I've ever seen in my life and I don't know anything about you.”50 years ago, George Lucas tried his hand at telling a nostalgic story inspired by his own teenage years and revolutionized the coming-of-age film forever. This week, The Wives Colangelo are joined by Bradford Oman (aka Ethan Anderton) to honor the half-of-a-century anniversary of AMERICAN GRAFFITI. They're talking about fast cars, boys trying to make sense of the world, what it feels like to say goodbye to your hometown, and the freedom of driving all night and looking for trouble. This episode is part of our TEEN MOVIE HELL series honoring the memory of Mike "McBeardo" McPadden.-----Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom-------Buy Teen Movie Hell at Bazillion Points!--------Follow our guest!Twitter: @Ethan_AndertonIG: @LookAtBradsJunk--------Find the Show on Twitter & Instagram: @ThisEndsAtPromBJ Colangelo —Twitter & Instagram: @BJColangeloHarmony Colangelo — Twitter & Instagram: @Veloci_trap_tor----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

"You see us as you want to see us — in the simplest terms and the most convenient definitions"This Ends at Prom is celebrating its 3-year anniversary by closing out the Hughes/Ringwald trilogy and finally tackling the teen movie of all teen movies, THE BREAKFAST CLUB. The Wives Colangelo discuss what the film has to say about growing up, lamenting your teen years, the cruel hierarchy of high school, whether it's as problematic as contemporary audiences claim, and why the film remains a generational favorite.This episode is part of our TEEN MOVIE HELL series honoring the memory of Mike "McBeardo" McPadden.

We're celebrating Brooklyn, the baby Brat Pack, and Boys' Catholic school with the criminally underseen HEAVEN HELP US. The Wives Colangelo are joined by podcaster, writer, and pop culture maven, Margo Donohue, who just released the book FILMED IN BROOKLYN all about movies set in her stomping grounds. We read a bit from Mike McPadden's TEEN MOVIE HELL, have the chance to examine how teen boys function differently around women compared to all-male groups, and try to figure out why we love Kevin Dillon's Rooney so much, even though he says the f-slur more in this movie than any others combined.--------Become a Patron! www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom--------Buy Margo's Book! : Filmed in Brooklyn https://www.arcadiapublishing.com/Products/9781467146760--------Follow Margo on social media: @BrooklynFitChik--------Find the Show on Twitter & Instagram: @ThisEndsAtPromBJ Colangelo —Twitter & Instagram: @BJColangeloHarmony Colangelo — Twitter & Instagram: @Veloci_trap_tor----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

“In Ridgemont?

"If you guys are so interested in my sexual failures, why don't you go have a few of your own?"Happy Summerween, Prom Party! As part of our TEEN MOVIE HELL series, this week we're joined by the director of THE WOLFMAN'S HAMMER and the trans-inclusive intersectional feminist vampire girl gang flick BIT to talk about the 80stastic gender-reversed TWILIGHT predecessor, ONCE BITTEN. Together, the trio figure out what makes Jim Carrey's leading feature performance so great, imagine what life would be like as a vampire forced to exclusively feed on high school boys, and break down the brilliant vampire dance-off sequence that has to be seen to be believed.--------Become a Patron! www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom---------Watch Brad Michael Elmore's Bit on Prime Video and Tubi!---------Find the Show on Twitter & Instagram: @ThisEndsAtPromBJ Colangelo —Twitter & Instagram: @BJColangeloHarmony Colangelo — Twitter & Instagram: @Veloci_trap_tor----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

"He's throwing you against each other! As long as you're at each other's throats, he can control you. If you stopped thrashing around for one second, you'd see that you aren't any different from the preens."For this season's edition of TEEN MOVIE HELL, we're talking about the 1987 private school comedy, PRETTY SMART (1987). Don't let the poster, trailer, synopsis, or reviews fool you--this movie is unlike anything you'd expect. Together the Wives talk all about the wild, wild, west of teen chaos, the surprising progressiveness of the story, and try to find the answer to the age old question, "Who is this movie for?"Buy TEEN MOVIE HELL! https://www.bazillionpoints.com/books/pre-order-teen-movie-hell-the-crucible-of-coming-of-age-comedies-from-animal-house-to-zapped-by-mike-mcbeardo-mcpadden/---------Become a Patron! www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom---------Find the Show on Twitter & Instagram: @ThisEndsAtPromBJ Colangelo —Twitter & Instagram: @BJColangeloHarmony Colangelo — Twitter & Instagram: @Veloci_trap_tor----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

"It was easy. I just put on some sexy clothes and high heels and I went out and made a living."It's another edition of TEEN MOVIE HELL and this week we're talking about the teenage exploitation classic, ANGEL with non-binary author and soapmaker, M. Lopes da Silva.

As the sun starts to set on the summer season, the boys are back with their season finale in I Eat Movies #13: Wanna Bet? - Little Darlings (1980) / Spring Fever (1982)! While the teen sex cycle of films from the 1980s would evolve into a genre told from an almost exclusively male point of view, the dawn of the decade suggested different with the coming of age charmer, Little Darlings. Costarring Tatum O'Neal (Paper Moon) and Kristy McNichol (TV's Empty Nest) as two girls from opposite ends of the track who are pressured into a bet to see who will lose their virginity first at summer camp, the vulnerability and relatable adolescent confusion displayed by the film's talented roster vividly recall all your teenage insecurities with beauty and hilarity. Next up, the old bait and switch is pulled with Spring Fever, a film not even remotely resembling its hijink-infused poster art. Instead, we're treated to a Canadian tax-shelter production concerning female teen tennis players competing at a Florida tournament that might just surprise you. In addition, we read from Mike McPadden's essential tome Teen Movie Hell (with words from the wonderful Rachel McPadden) and discuss the sometimes misguided and occasionally hilarious reviews both films endured from the critics of their day. All this and more to be feasted upon in our season closer so start munching!

On this episode, Elric and Brian pay tribute to the late Mike "McBeardo" McPadden - a film writer and film fan of the highest order who wrote a few books on movies and one of them - TEEN MOVIE HELL - is the focus of this show. TEEN MOVIE HELL is a book all about the teen movies of the 1970s and 1980s and features lots of deep cuts as well as old classics. Elric and Brian Highlight 5 movies each from the book and read passages from the book to go along with each. Featured at the front of this episode are clips from an interview with Mike McPadden himself on a show called Castle Talk (with host Jason Henderson).

The Cinematheque’s series of free, view-at-home movies continues with Demons a 1980s cult horror movie that, among other things, plays with the notion of movie theaters as a source for viral infection…and demonic possession. On this episode of Cinematalk, our special guest is writer and cinephile Mike McPadden, author of two positively essential film guides, the recently published Teen Movie Hell and, now in its third printing, Heavy Metal Movies, a compendium that describes Demons as "Italy’s hallucinogenic meta-commentary on its own berserk splatter movies of the ‘80s. McPadden has provided commentary tracks for several home video releases on blu-ray, and he’s also the co-host of two other podcasts we highly recommend, Crackpot Cinema, co-presented with TV writer Aaron Lee, and 70 Movies We Saw in the 70s, co-hosted with the Cinematheque’s Ben Reiser.

Red Wire! Erica is joined by Mike McPadden and Ben Reiser from the 70 Movies we Saw in the 70s podcast to discuss the cruise liner disaster movie, Juggernaut. Please note that at the time of publication, the movie is no longer available for free on Amazon Prime but can still be rented. It also has a Kino Lorber blu-ray release.

Pop music has had its share of bands with siblings: Gallaghers, Finns, Carpenters, Davies, Wilsons (some with heart and some with surf), Isleys, Warhursts….. Then there's the Mael men!!!!! Welcome to episode 135 of Love That Album podcast. Sparks, (ostensibly, Ron and Russell Mael) are that rare beast that are hugely identifiable despite having changed styles (and record companies) several times. By the time they released album number 11, “Angst In My Pants” in 1982, they'd experimented with rock, prog, euro-disco, pop….and they still had many albums and styles to go. Yet, when you hear a Sparks song, there's that "something" that makes you sure it's them. I am honoured to be joined by music and film writers, Heather Drain and Mike McPadden to discuss “Angst” as well as related peripheral topics. The album is loaded with jerky new-wave era pop. Like its title, much of the album sounds musically nervous and this is reflected in many of the record's songs. Join us as we talk about cigarettes with human traits, Stars on 45, humour in music without being comedic, fragile masculinity,  taking the Mickey, anxiety, and (of course) hiding public erections….amongst several other tasteful topics. I also make a production comparison that I hope Heather will forgive me for…….. Having Heather and Mike on the show was a joy. They brought so much insight, and I look forward to further shows with them. Go to Heather's website at www.mondoheather.com to get links to her essays and podcast appearances, or to order her latest brilliant book, The Bizarro Encyclopedia of Film Vol.1 Mike is also keeping busy with 3 (count ‘em) excellent film podcasts on the go.

If I said that See Hear Podcast episode 68 featured a discussion about a film with dark heavy metal, killer wolverines, vikings, projectile vomit, dug up corpses, crushed reindeer bones, and splattered reindeer blood, and then told you it was a really sweet film, would you believe me?   You should because every part of that description is true. Once again, Tim is on sabbatical, so Bernie and I are joined by the amazing and colossal Mike McBeardo McPadden. He is the author of a revered tome called Heavy Metal Movies, so we at See Hear HQ figured he was a perfect choice to join us for a discussion of 2018 Finnish film, Heavy Trip (aka Hevi Reissu). A metal band in a small town in Finland have been practicing in their parents' basements for 12 years, and have never found the courage to leave it....until a chance meeting with the organiser of a Norwegian metal festival. The four friends decide to leave the confines of their backward thinking town to find their community....with wacky hijinks ensuing.   The discussion swerves all over the place like a drunken (possibly vengeful) reindeer on a country road. Ultimately, was this a successful film? Download the show and hear our thoughts. You can find Heavy Trip on Amazon Prime or Kanopy.   Download the podcast from Stitcher, Spotify or the website at https://seehear.podbean.com …..or whatever podcast app you favour.   HUGE thanks to Mike for joining us. You can get his books Heavy Metal Movies and Teen Movie Hell from https://www.bazillionpoints.com/ or order it at your bricks and mortar bookshop. He also tends to the Facebook page for Gilbert Gottfried's Amazing Colossal Podcast (featuring previous podcast guest, Frank Santopadre). Mike is a mentsch, and will be back for future episodes.   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.   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.

Born in the drive-in theater backseats of the 1970s, the demonic visions of Teen Movie Hell fueled the VCR, cable TV, and shopping mall multiplex booms of the 1980s before collapsing in the 1990s in a pixelated pile of cable dissipation and Internet indulgences. Between George Lucas's American Graffiti in 1973 and Richard Linklater's Dazed and Confused twenty years later, lust-driven laugh riots on the order of Animal House, Porky's, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, and Revenge of the Nerds boomed at the box office and conquered pop culture by celebrating adolescent misbehavior run amok.

This is it the finale of the big book giveaway with me and the books author chat about teenage movies! So join us at 8:50 east to hear who won

Mike "McBeardo" McPadden, author of TEEN MOVIE HELL - A CRUCIBLE OF COMING-OF-AGE COMEDIES FROM ANIMAL HOUSE TO ZAPPED! joins me for fantastic pizza from Gino's East River North (a true Chicago classic). We tackled a fantastic deep dish "Gino's Supreme" and had scant few leftovers to speak of by the time we left the car! We talked at length about teen coming-of-age comedies, and: We didn't use plates; we went "full animal." The "Slobs vs. the Snobs." Mike's book is perfect for bathroom reading. What leads a 50-year-old man to collect all this information on coming-of-age teen comedies? The quintessential teen movie moment: Phoebe Cates in "Fast Times." Why does "Fast Times" hold up better than most films in the genre? Mike takes aim at "Ferris Bueller," the "sacred cow" of coming-of-age movies. How does a book like "Teen Movie Hell" in the "Me Too" era? Teen movie archetypes: The jock! The nerd! The cheerleader! The fascistic authority figure! Chronic masturbator! The massive talent of Rodney Dangerfield. I like Gino's pizza so much I decided to wear it home. There were four "Revenge of the Nerds" movies. WHYYYYY? My main problem with "The Breakfast Club." Are coming-of-age movies still being made, or made well? Some of the more obnoxious movie titles, including Gimme an F! "Meatballs" is the moment when Bill Murray became Bill Murray. "Snowballing" is the second-best title in teen movie history. The fantastic soundtrack to "Valley Girl." Car Con Carne is presented by The Autobarn Mazda of Evanston.
