Episode 6 - (Not) Manhunter

While we all loved Michael Mann's 1986 cult classic, our recorder didn't. Joe quickly fills us in on what's been going wrong behind the scenes and how we tried to record this episode not once but TWICE to no avail. Then stick around for the final 30 min of the original "Manhunter" recording which is actually pretty entertaining. The jury is still out on whether or not this was a fiendish plot by the Tooth Fairy to tear the hosts of this show apart or it was just a case of shitty technology. You be the judge.

Also Alec communicates with the group from a different time and space. So pop a cap of Substance D, slip on your scramble suit, and Enjoy!

Cinefile: Robert De Niro with Quentin Tarantino

You may of heard our host Matt Burden mention this on the recent "True Romance" episode, and i figured people might now be intrested in checking this out. This is the program "Cinefile" and in this episode they profiled Robert De Niro and had Quentin Tarantino basically give his thoughts on the actor in terms of his craft, style, directors he choses to work with, and some of his standout performances.

One thing i noticed when watching this was that Tarantino calls out De Niro as basically not being an exciting actor anymore towards the end which i found quite a ballsy move for a young director on the rise at the time (Keep in mind De Niro was still seen as an untouchable actor at this time by most people, cinephile and mainstream audience alike).

He says that he needs to take more chances and pick more "dangerous" roles (contrasting his career to that of Harvey Keitel who had been picking more "dangerous" parts including a role in Tarantino's "Reservoir Dogs" which garned him much acclaim), or he will grow stale. De Niro oddly enough did start doing this for awhile including a role in Tarantino's "Jackie Brown" a few years later, but has kind of sadly turned into exactly the kind of actor Tarantino feared he would become back then. Intresting definetly, atleast from a historical point of view.

Episode 3 - True Romance

In this episode the guys discuss Tony Scott's 1993 cult classic "True Romance", but not everyone is a fan. Listen in to hear one host lose their mind, several hosts doing their best Drexl impersonations, the inevitable "Reservoir Dogs" comparison and debate, and one host's taste is called into question. So sit back, break out your prints of Doctor Zhivago, and enjoy.
