  • A Book Review of Quentin Tarantino's "Cinema Speculation"

    A Book Review of Quentin Tarantino's "Cinema Speculation"
    Nov 11 2022
    Quentin Tarantino wrote a book! I read it and talked about it for a half an hour. Mostly off the dome but I had some notes and stuff. Remind me to write more but I just recorded the podcast. It's a half hour of me talking by myself. Give me a break! Hahaha update I consistently get the title wrong. It's cinema speculation not speculations. There's only one speculation. It's singular. My bad. So the book is Cinema Speculation and here's.a link to buy it (https://bookshop.org/p/books/cinema-speculation-quentin-tarantino/18273113?ean=9780063112582) in case that's something that appeals to you. Also, I say book a couple times when I mean movie and vice versa. A little embarassing but I'm not going to re-record the whole thing because of that. I think I set myself up for a fall by critiquing someone else for sloppiness. So let this be a lesson about pointing fingers. Or don't. Who cares. Also, the factual error I allude to but forget to flesh out is that he calls Brian De Palma's Obsession a flop but it actually made $4 million, which was healthy box office for the time. But after my blunder with the pluralization of the title, who am I to judge? Glass-house living motherfucker. LOL.

  • HELLRAISER 2022 Review

    HELLRAISER 2022 Review
    Oct 20 2022
    I forgot to mention that Motorhead has a pretty good song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1M4FG1UXH5w)called "Hellraiser." RIP Lemmy. This is my first solo episode in a while and also my first review in a while. I watched the new Hellraiser, which is now streaming on Hulu, and decided I was an expert on all things Hellraiser because I read the novella the first movie was based on, Clive Barker's Hellbound Heart. It's a really good little page-turner that you can blow through in an afternoon. Check it out! The new Hellraiser is the 11th Hellraiser movie. There are only nine Nighmare on Elm Street movies, including the Jason Vs Freddy crossover and the remake and I'd imagine that it's a much better known film series. At 11 films, it nearly ties the Friday the 13th series, which has 12 movies when you include Freddy Vs Jason and the 2000s remake. That's pretty wild considering it's a horror franchise that likely has much more of a niche appeal than its horror franchise competition. And how they should have never made a sequel to the first one. You can watch the trailer for the new Hellraiser here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUlgwJNdu2I). This (https://twitter.com/HellraiserIM/status/1581253442550390784) is one of the horny images of lady Pinhead I mentioned. NSFW, probably.

  • HALLOWEEN SPOOKTACULAR DOUBLE BILL With Jim Knipfel

    HALLOWEEN SPOOKTACULAR DOUBLE BILL With Jim Knipfel
    Oct 13 2022
    It's October. So naturally, or should I say supernaturally? No, naturally's probably right. The point is that naturally, because it's October, I invited Jim Knipfel on the pod to talk scary movies. Jim has long been a champion of_ Halloween III: Season of the Witch, the misfit outcast entry in the Halloween film series that's about druids, killer masks and Irish robots instead of Michael Myers. And he's right to champion it. _Halloween III is a great, fun, weird movie despite its reputation. And Phantasm is weird and odd and terrific too. Jim blew my mind clean off a couple times with background info about these two cult masterpieces, particularly with respect to Angus Scrimm's non Phantasm career. Also, I blunder into a wild moment of amateurish ignorance by revealing I didn't know Michael Oldfield's "Tubular Bells" was the theme from The Exorcist. I only watched The Exorcist once and I forgot the soundtrack. "Tubular Bells" is a sample in a DJ Shadow song and I never connected it to The Exorcist. Let me know if I have to turn in my gun and badge. Jim's defense of Halloween III is here (https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/halloween-iii-season-of-the-witch-deserves-another-look/). Subscribe to Jim’s Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/jimknipfel/posts). it’s terrific.
