Lee and Leah are back this episode to talk about Guillermo del Toro's fantasy/horror/anti fascist film set in the post-Spanish Civil War era, "Pan's Labyrinth" (2006). Most of the talk revolves around what is or isn't real in the film and the central themes, as well as the amazing special effects and visuals. You might say the hosts really Faun over this one. Thank you, we're here all week. Try the veal. The hosts also cover what they've watched as of late.

Monday May 24, 2021
Lee and Lady Leah have a conversation covering their thoughts on director Joshua Oppenheimer's 2012 documentary "The Act of Killing", which is about the surviving Indonesian death-squad leaders, who were responsible for the deaths of over one million people from 1964-65. A lot of it is just the shock and anger both hosts felt while watching the brazen boasting by these monsters, but they do get into Oppenheimer's unique and non-confrontational way he goes about opening these people up and showing what they truly are, with their own words and shallow justifications. It's not a fun film to talk about, but we think the discussion about it was quite good at least. Listener feedback and what Lady Leah has watched as of late are also covered.

Lee, Greg, Kerry, and guest host Lady Leah talk about 2016's "Doctor Strange". Is it a good origin story? Does it matter much in the overall grand scheme of the MCU? Does it have a bad guy in it that's worth a damn? Is it okay that the Ancient One isn't Asian? All of this and more can be found in this crazy mirror dimension of an episode.

Lee, Paul and Leah return to take a look at the horror-infused Spaghetti Western "Django the Bastard" (1969), starring prolific Italian genre actor Anthony Steffen in the titular role of Django. The conversation revolves around the legitimacy of the unofficial Django films; how much of an effective horror film this actually is; if the Django in this film is undead or just really clever; and Leah's reaction and thoughts on watching her first pasta cowboy film, and why her mother may very well be the worst Italian for never cluing her in on their existence. The hosts also briefly talk about what they've watched as of late.

Lee and Leah get into the mind of the criminal element when they cover the Anatole Litvak-directed, and John Huston-written crime & comedy film, "The Amazing Dr. Clitterhouse" (1938). Is this film a bit deeper than it lets on? Is Edward G. Robinson really all that great a guy in this? Is this just the Stanford Experiment? Are they talking about what one might think they are talking about with the Clitterhouse name? What did Humphrey Bogart think of this film? All of this and more, including what the hosts have watched as of late.

In honor of the late, great Christopher Plummer, Lee, Daniel, Leah and special guest host Sam try and navigate the twists and turns of Rian Johnson's ensemble murder mystery "Knives Out!"

Monday Feb 22, 2021
Lee and Leah check out a film Leah suggested for the podcast - and a film that is a shameful blind spot in Lee's trash movie viewing - "Multiple Maniacs" (1970). It's John Waters' first talkie, and features the incomparable talents and screen presence of Divine. Is it too transgressive for its time? Is it too tame these days? Should it be embraced by the LGBTQ community despite some of the less PC content? What's a rosary job? Tune in to find out.

First it's an example of the classic small-town boy gets taken for a sucker tale, "Dance Charlie Dance" (1937) and then they move over to a film about smart, independent female lawyers trying to make their way in a male-dominated profession, "The Law in Her Hands" (1936). Which film did a heel turn on the hosts and made them hate it? Tune in to find out. Leah and Lee also talk about what they've watched as of late.

Lee, Daniel and Leah are back to tackle Paul Thomas Anderson's lengthy epic drama from 1999, "Magnolia". What did they think about the multiple interconnected storylines and how they all came together? Did the talented ensemble cast get enough screen time in their individual parts? How does Daniel feel about a film that was once his favourite film back when he first braved a tornado warning to see it alone in a theater? Did Tom Cruise deserve his Oscar nod here?

Friday Jan 29, 2021
Daniel, Lee, Greg and Kerry return to chat about "Captain America: Civil War" (2016). Opinions on this one are far more split than usual, as the hosts debate if this is even really a Captain America film or an Avengers film. Does Spiderman and Black Panther have to be in this? Is the Winter Soldier worth a damn? Do the action scenes at least hold up? Is there enough meat in this two and a half hour film for it to be worth your time? All this and more, so come fight us about it in an airport or something.

Lee, Dan, and Leah are back to talk about the goofy little biker film starring Joe Namath, Ann-Margret and William Smith, "C.C. & Company" (1970). How much of a real exploitation film is it? How big of a dick-bag is Namath in this? Why is Ann-Margret's character in any way attracted to Namath's character? Why are the biking scenes so damn long and drawn-out? Fuck Gene Siskel and the body-shaming horse he rode in on? All of these questions and more in this fun episode. Join our podcast biker gang, and let's do some audio crimes together!
