Jim Wynorski's Komodo Vs. Cobra B-Movie Creature Features

Here we go with a SyFy Channel production that nonetheless is helmed by one Roger Corman's partners-in-crime with much of the same type of Creature Feature send-up:

 

The KOMODO VS. COBRA films are summarized in this minisode. Don't miss the shenanigans!

Roger Corman's The Hunt for Eagle One Films Double Feature

Continuing with the Roger Corman themed week, I review the HUNT FOR EAGLE ONE men on a mission films. These explosive outings star Mark Dacascos (John Wick 3, Crying Freeman), Theresa Randle (Bad Boys films, King of New York) and Rutger Hauer (Blade Runner, The Hitcher).

 

I also get to briefly summarize Roger's Filipino war movie productions and how some of these B-movie filmmakers end up having successful TV careers after getting their feet wet with these schlocky fun productions!

Filmmaker Roger Corman Mini-Tribute + Retrospect

We share with you a raw & in-the-moment sitdown on Prolific B-Movie Producer Roger Corman.

 

We sat on this as we wanted to give everyone time to process the beloved filmmaker's loss while also framing it mainly on why he resonates with so many of us many film nerds.

 

After starting off with a 1982 David Letterman interview clip, we dive deeper into some of the future A-list talent mentored by Corman, talk less-discussed trivia & address the crappy comments made by (the otherwise talented) screenwriter Paul Schrader over Corman's passing.

 

Love him, hate him, admire the passion, Roger's influence is here to stay for centuries regardless!

 

 

Retrospect + Tribute to the Music Group Linkin Park (with Johnny Potoky and Oreo Brewer)

Johnny Potoky & Oreo Brewer join me in this retrospect/tribute on the divisive yet influential music group LINKIN PARK

 

Talking Points Include:

*How this band and Nine Inch Nails both become healing music

*We critique the sexist trolls & people who were never going to accept any new Linkin Park material as being the main problem

*How people love to hate ANYTHING they do even though they're not fans & how the group got a better ethical character compared to other garbage rock bands

*The dark realities of Chester Bennington and question why it takes famous people to bring this up in our own personal conversations

*How these music artists influence our personal author & music video creating experiences

*We also talk about who was the ACTUAL owner of the band

*How shitty Chester's song was (when he has no business being on social media in the first place)

*And the debate on music artists finding a new music style Vs. losing their true sense of comradery.

 

 

SONGS/CLIPS USED:

Zane Lowe 2023 Interview (Meteora Album 20th Anniversary)

Everything Pirates of the Caribbean! (with Oreo Brewer)

Oreo Brewer returns to sum up everything we love about the adventure fantasy film franchise PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN.

 

What were the videogames, merchandise & the Theme Park Ride like?

 

Were there any other decent pirate films that came out between this and NATE AND HAYES?

 

Who's our favorite supporting character?

 

All that (and zero discussion of any problematic actors associated with this saga)!

 

 

SONGS USED:

"Humanity Sector (No Choir)" by Pfeifer Broz. Music (used in POTC: At World's End Trailer)

Favorite Moments on The Closer/Major Crimes

Prepare for a fun revisit as we list our favorite moments on the hit TNT TV series franchise: THE CLOSER and its follow-up MAJOR CRIMES.

 

Guest Lila Morrill, who's a civilian working for the police dept., gets to rate the accuracy as well.

 

How many brutal bomb defusings, intense shoot-outs, blunt interrogations & welcome office humor make this a cut above most procedurals?

 

How many STAR TREK & BREAKING BAD actors were on this HOMICIDE/BONES type show?

 

All that and why both actors Raymond Cruz & J.K. Simmons are national treasures!

 

 

Cult Franchise Mini-Review of Monsters & Monsters 2: Dark Contintent

Prepare for a brief overview on another monster movie franchise:

 

Does MONSTERS rank as Gareth Edwards' best creative endeavor thus far or is it more of a reminder for what his later big-budget blockbusters will be like?

 

Does the starpower in these low-budget outings really enhance the visuals and premise or do they leave much to be desired?

 

Find out in this positive yet critical reflection as we remind you on how so many A-listers start small when first getting into this chaotic movie business!

Review of 3 SciFi Terror Adventure Movies by Filmmaker Roger Christian (Star Wars & Alien crewmember, Battlefield Earth director)!

Prepare for another deep dives into more cult movie findings:

 

Multigenre filmmaker Roger Christian will always be celebrate for his contributions to the Star Wars and Alien franchise as well as mocked for his Battlefield Earth infamy. But in this sit-down, I get to illustrate three special B-movies of his that revisit the terrain he did best as well as throwbacks to other terror/adventure genre cinema.

 

Enjoy my friends!

Tag along with us as we take a special trip straight into Hell: Crystal Hairston helps me navigate the innumerable limited releases and VOD film entries by both Nicolas Cage and John Travolta.

 

After this, you'll realize that fan loyalty to actors just needs to stop!

Netflix Miniseries BEHIND HER EYES Review Minisode

The morbid curiosity continues this week with a brief reflection on a sleeper hit mini-series: BEHIND HER EYES.

 

What's a show that you saw on Netflix that no one talks about (but they really honestly should?).

 

A huge thanks to Jenelle (AKA Ponytail of Justice) on Twitter for recommending this criminally underrated psychological endeavor. If you want something akin to DEAD CALM or GONE GIRL, you've come to the right place!

David Lynch Tribute (with Predator Minute, Ken Bates & The Vern!)

Four of our true MVPs on the show reflect on why the late David Lynch touched so many souls in his hard-to-describe filmography.

 

Why do so many other people go wrong by creating an ambigious fantasy world and why did he maintain people's trust in his visions?

 

So much to unpack here but no shortage of praise in this sit-down!

Reeker Movies Review Minisode

Dave Payne's supernatural slasher franchise includes elements of everything from creature features to heist and road trip films but is it successful at any of those things?

 

In this double feature minisode, we get into why these bizarre low-budget films kept being discovered on the movie channels!

Dark Winds Season 2 & 3 Review + Interview with Castmember Alonso Rappa

After a brief review of the edgy AMC Network show DARK WINDS, Cam gets to interview co-star of last season: Alonso Rappa!

 

Alonso was a delight to have sum up the acting industry, his other upcoming gigs and keeping this creative process positive.

 

How did Season 2 of this Tony Hillerman adaptation really raise the bar?

 

What did Season 3 do that was really divisive with both the plotting and the way they adapted the characters?

 

Will Season 4 soar to new heights or is this show going in a controversial direction?

 

Take a trip back to the '70s with this cast of characters and see!

Classic Trashy TV: Renegade & Walker TX Ranger (with Tom Lindaman)

It's time for Tom & I to jokingly review the low-brow yet popular Action shows: the half-Cherokee WALKER, TX. RANGER and rather similar RENEGADE!

 

Guess which one of these shows is loosely connected to the ST. ELSEWHERE universe?

 

Would either of these shows had been WAY better with JCVD or Schwarzenegger in the lead role?

 

Cam also has Drinking Game Instructions for all viewers:

*Take a drink each time you hear the hero’s name

*Have a cookie or sweet for each fight scene

*And if you’re going to watch this all day, just down an entire block of cheese!

"Walker Texas Ranger Theme Song" by Chuck Norris

Tony Hillerman's PBS Navajo Mystery TV Movie Adaptations Reviewed

I do a brief overview on the initial PBS series of TV movies that adapted Tony Hillerman's Navajo mystery books. 

 

Produced by the late great Robert Redford, they starred Wes Studi (Last of the Mohicans, Heat) as Lt. Joe Leaphorn and Adam Beach (Windtalkers, Law & Order: SVU) as Officer Chee.

 

Solid production values aside, how did these films change the way PBS ran its original productions?

 

Do these adaptations make both the book and movie crowds happy?

 

See how this community jives that Tuesday!
