Hello everyone, it’s time to announce the next featured director for Director’s Chair and, for Halloween, I’ve decided to feature the king of body horror, David Cronenberg.

After making some short films and arthouses films in the early 1970s, Cronenberg went into partnership with producer Ivan...

Hello everyone, it’s time to showcase the features sent to me on the films of Hayao Miyazaki. Thanks to everyone who sent pieces in. Without further ado, let’s dive in.

Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind

Castle in the Sky

My Neighbour Totoro

It’s Lambpardy time! Three more contestants are vying for the final spot in this year’s semi-finals, and the last first-round show of the year is a doozy!

This month the contestants are:
JD Duran – Insession Film

It’s time to vote for October’s Movie of the Month, and as usual it’s horror-themed! We’ve got five films for you to choose between, ranging from a couple of classics, a TV series spin-off, a South Korean revenge thriller and a movie from just this year (that is available on premium streaming). Whichever film wins the poll will be discussed on an upcoming episode of the...

In an overwhelming vote manufactured by the proud champion of this film, the 2000 Russell Crowe/Meg Ryan drama “Proof of Life” was chosen as the September MOTM. The movie is best remembered not for the action scenes, or the political perspective on South American politics, but rather for the brief affair of the two stars which brought to a close the marriage of Ryan to actor Dennis Quaid.

For the most part, our...

This episode comes after the second weekend of release for the film, and not a minute too soon because the genii here is being put back in the bottle by audiences pretty quickly. Our guests this week however were glad to talk about it and we had a wide range of opinions.

Idris Elba is back after just a week off in a second starring feature, this time with a co-star who is not a lion but who is reliable, Tilda Swinton. In a twist...

It’s Lambpardy time! Three more contestants are here to battle it out for movie trivia supremacy and a place in the next round of the tournament! We were a little pressed for time on this recording so it gets a bit more frantic towards the end than we’re used to, but it’s still a fully-functioning game of Lambpardy!

If you want to hear five Lambs who are enthusiastic about every movie they talk about, this is the show for you. 1973 had so many films that were of such high quality, that there was only one overlap film between the five Lambs and their five films each.

The decade lookback episodes have become very popular here on the Lambcast, and this show illustrates why. Every guest chooses their own criteria for selecting their five films,...

Sometimes the best way to win a Movie of the Month poll is to pick a popular film that everyone wants to talk about, but that’s not the only way. I’m not saying whether this month’s winner picked this option or not, but I can for certain say that their particular tactic involved promoting the poll, and their film, as much as possible over the past week, resulting in something...

The end of the summer brings us a man vs. nature film, and a LAMB community that is apparently on vacation somewhere. Only Lisa Leaheey was willing to go on safari with Richard this week, but we bagged a big cat and have the trophy ready to display here on the LAMB. 

Idris Elba stars as a recently widowed Doctor, who had separated from his sick wife and must find a way to reconnect with his teen daughters who just lost their...

It’s time to vote for September’s Movie of the Month! It’s another theme-less, anything goes month, where the majority of this month’s champions opted for the unofficial theme of “films Jay has never heard of”! There’s also the semi-regular theme of “Jay forgot about the MOTM poll and threw this together late” so apologies for that, and once...

Hello everyone, it’s time to announce the featured director for this months Director’s Chair and, with Princess Mononoke winning Movie of the Month, I’ve decided to highlight the work of Hayao Miyazaki.

Miyazaki got his start in animation at Toei in 1963, working as an in-between artist...
