Friday February 15th, 2013 07:00 Episode 78: Frenchman Vengeance

Our double feature films this week share a couple themes in common… they are about French gentlemen hunting three men to get some revenge… and they explore the meaning of vengeance itself. Completely coincidental, I assure you, as we are just not that smart.

The first film reviewed is a 1975 eurocrime of sorts by the name of L’AGRESSION or Act of Aggression.

The second is Johnnie To’s 2009 film VENGEANCE

Music this week:
King Missile – Detachable Penis
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds – The Mercy Seat
EL-P – Deep Space 9mm

Then we tackle an unofficial kinda somewhat maybe sequel to The French Connection with 1973’s THE SEVEN-UPS

The first film we discuss is the very first Katherine Bigelow feature… 1982’s THE LOVELESS with Dafoe as a greaser biker muddafugga

The second film reviewed is David Lynch’s perhaps most accessible film… a still very odd WILD AT HEART from 1990.

Friday December 28th, 2012 00:17 Episode 71: Manly Mustaches and Ponytails

While the two films reviewed on the show this week don’t have a ton in common, what they do have is pretty outstanding…. giant mustaches and ponytails on our lead actors!

The second is a little John Cassavetes joint from 1971 called MINNIE AND MOSKOWITZ. Wait til you see the mane on Cassell!

A thanks this week to Bad James from Australia for a song used on the first break. I fail to mention it because I was lazy and didn’t prepare the breaks ahead of time and we weren’t listening to them live. Next time, buddy, I promise

Friday December 21st, 2012 07:00 Episode 70: XMas Comedy!

It’s that time of the year agaaaaain… the hooolidaaaays!

Since we kind of shoehorned in a Christmas show last year, this year we decided to do it up right and actually cover a couple xmas flicks… and we chose some classic 80s comedies!

The first film we review is 1988’s SCROOGED starring Bill Murray and some other people. This is one that somehow eluded Zom and Loaf until just now!

The second film reviewed is 1984’s TRADING PLACES starring Eddie Murphy and Dan Akroyd. What holiday film is complete now without racist jokes and Jamie Lee Curtis’ perfect tits??

Happy Holidays, miners. We love you all like a wart you just get used to having there. KISSES!
