Cinema Smorgasbord – Further Reeding – Z.P.G. (1972)

Cinema Smorgasbord, Podcasts on September 15, 2025 0Comments 1Like

Your Oliver Reed-loving pals are BACK on a brand new episode of FURTHER REEDING and we’re checking out the filmed-in-Denmark 1972 science fiction oddity Z.P.G., where Reed and Geraldine Chaplin play a couple in a dystopian near-future where childbirth has been outlawed. Instead people cling onto weird child-like automatons while slowing losing their minds and eating steak-flavored paste. That’s good eating! When Chaplin’s Carol decides she wants to have a baby anyway things get.. pretty goofy, especially when the neighbors discover the couple’s not-very-well-hidden secret. It’s strange! Check it out!

Uh oh! The gang is back talking all things Paul Bartel on another episode of BARTEL ME SOMETHING GOOD and this time not only are we yacking about 1976’s HOLLYWOOD BOULEVARD, the made-for-a-bet directing debut of both Joe Dante AND Alan Arkush (and featuring Paul Bartel, Dick Miller and Mary Woronov among many other familiar faces), but we also start with a very special episode of Alfred Hitchcock Presents from 1985 directed by Tim Burton(!), featuring music by Danny Elfman(!) and starring Griffin Dunne, Laraine Newman and – wait for it – Paul Bartel as a pretentious art critic. It’s even.. uh.. sort of an adaptation of a Ray Bradbury story. All that and so much more, so enjoy!

Julie and Nick are back from their summer break and on this episode of the podcast, Julie and Nick take a look at director J.C. Doler’s Irish folklore-inspired The Twin, now on Shudder. They also suggest a few other doppelganger horrors and talk about what they did on their respective summer vacations. Plus, the pair discuss trailers galore for V/H/S/Halloween, Good Boy, The Woman in Cabin 10, and more (all of which you can check out below), while also getting a smidge political about the state of healthcare in the US vis-à-vis The Toxic Avenger’s fundraising program with Undue Medical Debt and fanning out over Sabrina Carpenter’s new music video for “Tears.”

One this rootin’-tootin’ episode of HOW DO YOU DO, FELLOW KIDS? we’re checking out the made-for-HBO western THE LAST OUTLAW from 1993 featuring a murderer’s row of early 90s character actors: Mickey Rourke, Dermot Mulroney, Ted Levine, John C. McGinley, Keith David and – of course – Steve Buscemi! Not only that, it was written by Eric Red (who wrote THE HITCHER and NEAR DARK) and directed by THE QUIET EARTH/YOUNG GUNS II/FREEJACK’s Geoff Murphy and features plenty of ultra-violence in a (transparently) WILD BUNCH-inspired revenge tale. All THAT and the latest Steve Buscemi news!
