Cinema Smorgasbord – How Do You Do, Fellow Kids? – Monsters, Inc. (2001)

On this episode of HOW DO YOU DO, FELLOW KIDS? we’re checking out the Pete Docter-directed Pixar classic MONSTERS, INC. starring (the voices of) John Goodman, Billy Crystal and – of course – Steve Buscemi. We talk about our complicated relationship with computer animated films, our struggles with Billy Crystal as a performer, we rank our Pixar favorites and SO MUCH MORE. We also check out the latest Hayden video (/w Feist and Steve Buscemi), and all the other recent Buscemi news. CHECK IT OUT, JERKS.

Cinema Smorgasbord – Wild in the Streets – Live Like a Cop, Die Like a Man (1976)

On this episode of WILD IN THE STREETS we’re going long with the late Ruggero Deodato’s one and only eurocrime film, the absolutely bizarre buddy-cop action classic LIVE LIKE A COP, DIE LIKE A MAN. Featuring plenty of homoeroticism, quarry target practice, straight up murder and EXPLOSIONS, it takes the template set by earlier European action films and goes completely overboard, with two lead characters who flaunt conventions (and legality) while mowing down anyone who gets in their way – sometimes before they even commit a crime. CHECK IT OUT!

The Carnage Report Episode 25: Scream VI

On this episode of the podcast, Julie and Nick talk about Scream VI, the latest installment in the long-running horror franchise from directors Tyler Gillett and Matt Bettinelli-Olpin. In addition to what they think about the film, the pair recommend some other New York films and/or requels, get excited about upcoming festivals such as Panic Fest, lament the passing of director Bert I. Gordon, and discuss trailers galore for The Tank, The Wrath of Becky, Satan Wants You, and more.
