Cinema Smorgasbord – How Do You Do, Fellow Kids? – I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry (2007)

Cinema Smorgasbord, Podcasts on August 7, 2023 0Comments 0Likes

We tried. We tried our best to find some small piece of enjoyment in Dennis Dugan’s bafflingly misguided I NOW PRONOUNCE YOU CHUCK & LARRY, a film about two straight firefighters (played by Adam Sandler and Kevin James) who decide to get married in order to deal with some uncomfortable pension-related paperwork. Overstuffed with pitiful racist, sexist and homophobic stereotypes, it’s – even worse – completely unfunny, and has a horribly confused message at its core. Yeesh. Anyway, we get angry about that, but there’s also plenty of chat about the ongoing writer/actor strike, and – of course – all the latest Steve Buscemi news. CHECK IT OUT, JERKS.

Cinema Smorgasbord – Bartel Me Something Good – Lust in the Dust (1984)

Cinema Smorgasbord, Podcasts on July 31, 2023 0Comments 1Like

Yee-haw! We’re going back to the wild west on this episode of Bartel Me Something good with Paul Bartel’s 1984 comedy western LUST IN THE DUST starring Tab Hunter, Lainie Kazan and the legendary Divine! Originally envisioned as a John Waters project, Bartel ruffled against making a Waters-style film and instead brings his own wild and unpredictable sensibility (while still not skimping on the bad taste). It has musical numbers, butt tattoos, Cesar Romero, death via oral sex and so much more. Check it out, jerks!

On this episode of the podcast, Julie and Nick talk about director Stephen Scarlata’s new documentary, Sharksploitation, now streaming on Shudder. In addition to what they think about the film, the pair recommend some other docs and killer animal movies, discuss trailers galore for Dear David, Perpetrator, the upcoming Witchboard remake, and get excited about the massive upcoming haunt at the Mall of America. Plus, Julie and Nick wonder how they’d deal with open water.

Cinema Smorgasbord – Eric Roberts is the Man – Royal Kill (2009)

Cinema Smorgasbord, Podcasts on July 24, 2023 0Comments 0Likes

Retired pro-wrestler Gail Kim, Pat Morita and Eric Roberts (and Eric Roberts’ hair!) star in the bizarre 2009 action fantasy ROYAL KILL, which features a totally bonkers twist and.. not a lot else! Alexander Wraith plays Adam Arthavan, a royal guard sent to protect a young girl – unknowingly the daughter of his king – from Gail Kim’s silent assassin. It’s kind of like The Terminator, except infinitely worse! Talking with us about Royal Kill (aka Ninja’s Creed) is restaurateur, chef and Nova Scotian Allan McPherson, who also gets to hear all the latest Eric Roberts news and tweets. Lucky! Join us, jerks!
