Ep. 61: WARLOCK featuring Lindsey Wilkins

For our 100th episode, we explore an area of New World Pictures’ history that we’ve never discussed: when other companies had to release their movies because they were broke! Such is the case with 1989’s WARLOCK, despite the presence of director Steve Miner, who had made some of New World’s biggest hits, and Executive producer…

Ep. 64: Wavelength

Erica likes to point out, “all roads lead to THE THING” and WAVELENGTH is one of those roads.  But WAVELENGTH is so much more. It’s a little bit of E.T. seasoned with a dash of CLOSE ENCOUNTERS sitting on a bed of Tracy Chapman. It also features some of the finest performances of faceless government…

Ep. 63: Forbidden World

If you’re going to celebrate Forbidden World July, what better movie to discuss than the one that inspired it all!

And who exactly was hooking up…

Ep. 62: Deathstalker

When a movie title combines two words together like “death” and “stalker” it’s imperative to determine the proper pronunciation.  Is it “Deaths Talker”?  Or, is it “Death Stalker?”.  Also, how does one acquire the name “Deathstalker”?   We dare to ask these tough questions while talking about boners more here than in any other NWPP…

Ep. 60: The Pit featuring Doug McCambridge

 Doug from the Good Times Great Movies Podcast joins us to talk about 1981’s THE PIT!  That’s a pretty old film, considering we’re just a bunch of super youngs that are hip as hell, but we were nevertheless charmed by this movie, even if it’s about a creepy kid who’s only friends are his teddy…

Ep. 59: Smokey Bites the Dust

With a title like SMOKEY BITES THE DUST, you would think the elevator pitch for the movie would go something like, “The sheriff of a small town will stop at nothing to catch a high school rebel that kidnaps his daughter” Or, “When his car is stolen, Dick Miller sets off to catch the perpetrator…

Ep. 56: Avalanche

You might think a movie titled AVALANCHE would be about an avalanche and you’d be right except there’s more than just snow coming full force to a luxurious mountain resort.  This movie is an AVALANCHE of hard-partying, harder-loving, and rock-hard action sports.   David Shelby (ROCK HUDSON) knows the way to win back his ex-wife’s heart…
