Ep. 117 - Insidious: Out of the Further (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Insidious series is six movies strong and 15 years old. Really? From dental hygienist horror and endless living room forts to the tattooist mapping out plans on grapefruits, this movie is... well, it’s a Part 6! Is there still life in this $815 million franchise, or has it finally run out of steam? I discuss Amelia Eve’s striking resemblance to Naomi Watts, Lin Shaye’s glorious return as Elise, and whether "Cyrus" makes for a memorable villain. One thing is for sure: There will be another se
Ep. 116 - The End of Oak Street (with 2nd 2nd AD Riley Flanagan) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Review and interview! What happens when a quiet 1982 Michigan suburb is suddenly transported back to prehistoric times? You get The End of Oak Street —the intensely fun new film from David Robert Mitchell, the brilliant mind behind It Follows . Touted as the best dinosaur movie since 1993's Jurassic Park , this flick stars Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor navigating a neighborhood overrun by feathered dinos, giant bugs, and unexpected suburban drama. Somehow, it all works.“Oak Street” was filmed
Ep. 115 - Tom McLoughlin Interview Uncut (Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Happy 40th Anniversary to Jason Voorhees! A little while ago, I decided to re-release older episodes that are uncut. Back when I first started podcasting, having sharp, finely trimmed episodes were all the rage. Since nothing is recorded that way, it needs to be edited. Now, everyone wants to hear everything about the interview, wrinkles and all. So, here are classic episodes of Classic American Movies: Uncut. Can you believe it's been four decades since “Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives” sl
Ep. 114 - Uwe Boll (Citizen Vigilante) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Uwe Boll is no stranger to controversy. I first heard of him about 20 years ago when he challenged his harshest critics to a boxing match. Well, he’s back in everyone’s sights with his latest film, Citizen Vigilante , due to it’s politically charging nature. Some recent interviews only focused on the politics. Others clearly never saw the movie and just wanted to attack him. However, I wanted to treat Uwe like how I would want to be treated and we just talked. Turns out he’s one of the nicest pe
Ep. 113 - Young Washington (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’m not a historian—I’m just a guy who loves movies—but I’ve got to say, this was an interesting ride. Before George Washington was the face on the dollar bill, he was a raw, unpolished surveyor-turned-commander taking an absolute ass-whipping from reality. What I really dig about this is the way it was made. Angel Studios is giving the big Hollywood machines a run for their money with this crowdfunded, indie approach, and honestly? That’s the most punk rock thing I’ve seen in cinema in years. I
