Cinema Smorgasbord, Podcasts on June 9, 2025 0Comments 1Like

We’re taking a brief respite from American films on WE DO OUR OWN STUNTS to return to Hong Kong (and Japan!) for the sequel to the wildly popular WINNERS & SINNERS, it’s the even MORE wildly popular MY LUCKY STARS from 1986! Starring the 5 Lucky Stars (minus John Shum, but with extra bonus Eric Tsang), it’s bookended with some wild Jackie Chan and Yuen Biao action sequences and the meaty center is full of silly comedy – and lots of uncomfortable stuff because of course there is. How does it stack up to the first film, and exactly how much Jackie do we get in this one? LISTEN AND FIND OUT!

FURTHER REEDING (the world’s finest Oliver Reed-themed podcast) returns with Oliver Reed’s first starring role: the 1961 Hammer horror classic CURSE OF THE WEREWOLF! Despite Reed’s starring credit he doesn’t appear until the half-way mark of the film, but within minutes he shows his potential for stardom.. and that’s before he turns into a hairy, drooling monster! A much different werewolf tale than the Universal classics, it’s filled with pathos and sadness, but still gives you plenty of carnage in the final twenty minutes or so. LET’S TALK ABOUT IT!
