The Silver Linings Playlist

While Sinners and One Battle After Another were duking it all awards season earlier this year, a lot of the other films up for Best Picture and multiple other categories got left out of the conversation; Hamnet was unfortunately one of them. Beautifully tragic performances, impeccable direction, and a score that would make even the toughest man weep, this movie is so much more than “emotional manipulation”. If you only gave it the once over or put off seeing it, this is your sign to marvel at...

Time travel, destiny, and predetermination – it’s all on display in 2014’s Predestination. A small film with big ideas riding on the coattails of Primer, Inception, and a lot of other time related movies that came before it, there’s so much to unpack in what essentially is two movies attached at the hip to one another. So grab your favorite bottle of scotch and get ready for twist after twist as we try to unravel the mystery of who The Unmarried Mother is, plus topics like our…unique rules fo...

We have just one question for you: do you wanna party? If so, then you’re in for a treat because this week on the show we’re getting down and dirty with maybe the most punk rock version of all zombie flicks with 1985’s The Return of the Living Dead. A kick-ass soundtrack, fun characters, and outrageous special effects have cemented this one as a classic, and it’s still engaging over 40 years later. So join us in the cemetery as we tear into the movie, plus our thoughts on the upcoming Street ...

We’re taking a turn back into Korean cinema this week as we’re reviewing an absolute classic that’s still in IMDb’s Top 200 and Letterboxd’s Top 50 greatest films of all time. Memories of Murder isn’t a conventional murder mystery; it’s light and funny when it can be while also weaving a web of uncertainty and hopelessness, something only the great Bong Joon ho can accomplish. So slip into your Nice (not Nike) sneakers and look us in the eyes as we break open this film, plus discussions on ho...

Do you remember 2006’s The Breed? No? That’s okay, no one else does either. We’re uncovering a nothing of a movie to discuss, and it’s no wonder this thing has been lost to time. In 96 minutes of runtime, there’s only about 12 worth seeing. With that being said, our episode is jam packed, so strap in as we tear into this barely-a-movie flick, plus discuss the recent sequel (we couldn’t believe it either), the goofy as hell RC-3 Seabee, Pat Sajak’s greatest impression, Michelle Rodriguez as a ...
