Halloween Special 2012 Oct 31, 2012

Show notes

Join us in Ian’s ‘Special Dungeon’ as we celebrate Halloween with a classic Hollywood creature feature: a double bill of Frankenstein and Bride of Frankenstein. Music credit: Gaslamp Funworks by Kevin MacLeod CC BY 3.0.

#40: Let The Right One In Oct 25, 2012

Show notes

As it’s almost Halloween, now seems the perfect time to review the creepy Swedish vampire movie Let The Right One In. Join Lewis and Ian as they discuss the film’s beautiful ‘cinema tography’, Anthea Turner’s unexpected cameo and the surprisingly horrific ending to Ghost.

#39: A Matter of Life and Death Oct 18, 2012

Show notes

This week we get all misty eyed about the excellent Powell and Pressburger film A Matter of Life and Death (or Stairway to Heaven as it was called in the US). Join us as we heap praise on the mysterious force that is David Niven, get all confused about the curious Naked Goat Boy and pine for our very own attic-based camera obscura.

#38: Hidden (Caché) Oct 11, 2012

Show notes

This week Lewis and Ian are enthralled by possibly the world’s slowest paced thriller, 2005’s Hidden. The 101 boys wax lyrical about the way the director Michael Haneke builds a creeping sense of unease through the use of long, lingering takes, the great performances by Daniel Auteuil and Juliette Binoche and how cruel the aging process is when you compare what Annie Girardot looked like in the film to her photo on IMDB. Yep, the usual nonsense. Music credit: Gaslamp Funworks by Kevin MacLeod CC BY 3.0.

#37: Silent Running Oct 04, 2012

Show notes

This week Lewis and Ian delve into the wonderful world of serious 1970s science fiction with Silent Running. Plus there’s another Surprise Sponsor of the week that should please the fellas at http://www.crashandburnmoviepodcast.co.uk (note the lack of a WordPress address, classy).

#36: The Crying Game Sep 20, 2012

Show notes

We come to the conclusion that The Crying Game is at once charming and awkward, and even slightly irritating in places. A bit like our podcasts. Music credit: Gaslamp Funworks by Kevin MacLeod CC BY 3.0.

#35: Last Night Sep 13, 2012

Show notes

After being put through the emotional wringer of Downfall in the last podcast, Lewis and Ian wanted to watch a more light hearted film this week. So they went with Eoin Boyle’s recommendation Last Night – a 1998 film about disaffected twenty-somethings facing the end of the world. Yay!

#34: Downfall (Der Untergang) Sep 06, 2012

Show notes

Lewis and Ian try their best to be light-hearted, but respectful, as they look at the intense and gripping Downfall, a film depicting the last days of Hitler in war-torn Berlin. Listen to find out if they succeed! (Spoiler – they end up respectful, but not light-hearted). Music credit: Gaslamp Funworks by Kevin MacLeod CC BY 3.0.

How To Make A Summer Blockbuster Aug 30, 2012

Show notes

Much like a studio which has lost all faith in its mediocre ‘blockbuster’, 101 Films has waited right to the end of the summer to release its latest special: How To Make A Summer Blockbuster. Enjoy! Music credit: Gaslamp Funworks by Kevin MacLeod CC BY 3.0.
