Better late than never, Silva & Gold returns to kill you and kill you again lest we be killed

This week, to borrow a term from the Gents, we throw a Double Deuce at you with our reviews of TWO (count em) South African martial arts flicks.

KILL OR BE KILLED from 1980…

KILL AND KILL AGAIN from 1981…

So much karate, so little time.

Three hours of rambling is just a little time, right? …..right?

Some join us in our weekly train wreck, won’t you?

We are back and almost rested from a fantastic Horrorhound Weekend with some beautiful people to bring you a couple flicks that would love to be Die Hard, but aren’t qui

The first is a Jim Wynorski joint starring Corey Haim and Alan Thicke (yes, you read that right) from 1996 called DEMOLITION HIGH. High school Die Hard! Oh baby.te there.

The second is a doozy starring Jet Li and Jacky Cheung, directed by the rather prolific Jing Wong, from 1995 called HIGH RISK or MELTDOWN or Shu dan long wei.

I’m trying a different sound editing technique this week, in particular with the volume levels and filesize. Feedback is welcome and encouragedon how it sounds if at all different. 206-339-1600 or silvagoldpodcast@gmail.com

Music this week:
Ted Leo and the Pharmacists – The High Party
Ladytron – High Rise
Alan Thicke – Theme song to the gameshow Wizard of Odds

Sorry for the Horrorhound delay!

First we cover the film KIDNAP (Fatevi vivi: la polizia non interverrà) from 1974 where Silva is trying as a detective along with a mafia Don to solve a child kidnapping case.

We all know who the Silva is. Well, Gold can be many things, but we decided recently that Mr. Dolph Lundgren can be our Gold at least for the time being. We love some Dolph in all his forms, so we wanted to bring you a Silva and Dolph double feature to finally bring it all home.

Next we review a more explosive Dolph flick from 1994 called MEN OF WAR. Ever wanted to see Catherine Bell get her face licked? This is your film.

Reverend Scott made us a sweet, sweet intro for our show months and months ago. And months and months ago, we promised the good Reverend that we would review a movie of his choice. Well, we finally get to it this week after much (unneeded) tracking down.

YouTube can be very helpful sometimes.

Reverend Scott chose the 1998 film THURSDAY starring Thomas Jane, Aaron Eckhart, and Paulina Porizkova. Never thought I’d see a non-porn movie with a character wearing another character’s “juice” on his face.

We decided to make it a hump days double feature and pair Thursday up with BIG WEDNESDAY from 1974. Jan Michael Vincent, Gary Busey, William Katt, surfing, John Milius… good sheeeeeeit.

Somehow we manage to stretch a sleepy, low-energy show into three hours once again, so good luck to you all.

We’ll see you in the mines

Welcome one and all to our Halloween episode! You won’t find any Michael Myers or Jason Vorhees here…

We give you a little Chuck Norris, Bruce Campbell, and Robert Z’Dar instead.

Excited yet?

The first film we cover is SILENT RAGE from 1982. See Chuck Norris. See Chuck Norris kick the piss out of a scientifically created zombie type dude.

Then We talk about the battle of the chins with Z’Dar and Campbell in MANIAC COP!

Happy Halloween, one and all. We hope this Silva & Gold flavored “horror” movie double feature bring you many a pleasant nightmare!

We got ourselves a punks changing roles double feature for ya this week!

This was originally going to be an old cars double feature, but Netflix lied to us about our first film reviewed, 2003’s THE MAN OF THE YEAR. You don’t get Robin Williams, but instead a dyed blonde Brazilian, some hot women, guns, and a pet pig named Bill.

Next we did a very punk rock movie directed by Alex Cox from 1984…. REPO MAN. At least we get the old cars in here, and any chance to see Harry Dean Stanton probably makes it worth the price of admission.

Zom is drugged, Loaf stutters, it’s fun for all!

This week we decided to pay homage to Mr. Charles Napier, who passed away about a week and a half ago on October 5, 2011. Napier was quite a well known character actor (and chin) in the genre community, acting in loads of television and films over the past 40 years. Blues Brothers, Rambo, Russ Meyer flicks…

We chose a couple films at random that Napier starred in to review

The first was a 1992 crime film directed by Umberto Lenzi called Hornsby e Rodriguez, or MEAN TRICKS. I feel like someone played a mean trick on us.

Then we redeem ourselves by covering a Russ Meyer film from 1970 called CHERRY, HARRY, AND RAQUEL, but probably just end up stuttering and talking about tits through the whole review.

As always things completely fall apart by the end and Loaf sings Cher.

Apologies to Maurice for missing your email this week. We gotcha next week though

Every week on Silva & Gold, it seems some form of racism always appears in the films we watch and review. We figured we should just go ahead and cover a couple that tackle such themes head on by dressing people up in ridiculous costumes, throwing pies, inflating giant dragons, etc. Just your run of the mill, everyday spoofs!

First we discuss DARKTOWN STRUTTERS from 1975. Imagine an episode of Fat Albert, only the problem the kids have is a Colonel Sanders look-alike villain who has pig henchmen and a giant KKK biker gang at his disposal.

Next is a war/imperialism/USA/capitalism-protest film from 1969 called MR. FREEDOM, a “a pro-American Right superhero who fights for God and country by beating, robbing, and killing anyone who looks like they might disagree with him.” And by look, I’m sure that means “not white.”

We fall off the tracks perhaps more than usual this week, so get ready for a long mess.

Hey, it’s free! What can you do?

In a slight change of pace, this week the guys from Outside the Cinema chose two Japanese cyberpunk films that may just leave you scratching your head.

The first is an 16mm film from 1988 called Tetsuo: The Iron Man. Yes, a giant drill dick does make an appearance.

Then we try our damnedest to bring it all back around with a review of Rubber’s Lover from 1996. The name pretty much says it all, although this is not a porn! Unless screaming counts into that determination.

You can only imagine the tangents we go off on when the regular subject matter of the week is already out there. Zom may be coming to chop both Bill and Chris after this one.

Enjoy!

So there’s this guy. Zom loves ‘im. Loaf’s never heard of ‘im.

His name’s Paré.

Michael Paré

And he has rocketed into our collective psyche through a couple films by the name of

Eddie and the Cruisers

and

Streets of Fire.

Two films that we have tossed around for the past month or so that we figured we damn well should do official reviews on.

Zom’s a little sick… Loaf’s a little…um…who knows what Loaf is.

But at some point, smashing feces through a Play Doh fun factory is discussed.

Kisses!
