June is reserved for a Movie of the Month that comes from a female director. A Woman’s perspective is welcome any month but we don’t want it to get neglected by the capricious nature of voting so all entries for this Episode were directed by women and Karyn Kusama’s 2009 teen girl horror comedy topped the returns. It was a film expected to do better, widely criticized on it’s release, and having developed a much better...
We are getting close to a summer full of Lambcasts that will focus on new films, but before we hit that groove we have a couple shows that do dig into the past a bit. This is the second of our decade lookback shows. First we skip around on the decades and then we pick a year in that decade. Our guests this week were tasked with creating a Top Five list of their choice for 1988. Everyone has some criteria that overlap but there are definitely...
This week we all had to do something that has been difficult for a while, we went to a theater to see the featured film. “A Quiet Place Part II was not streaming on any service, you could not rent it on-line, if you wanted to see it, you had to go to the movies.
John Krasinski is again behind the camera and he appears in the tense prologue to the film, and our Lambs this week had things to say about that....
We have had Alien vs. Predator, Jason vs. Freddy and enough Superhero faceoffs in both the Marvel and DC worlds, to fill a dozen podcasts. It’s time for something a little different. We brought together five stars that are known for their Action Chops in a variety of movies. Buddy Cop films, Science Fiction extravaganzas, and Hong Kong Martial arts movies all make it to the show. Five Lambs enter and two remain, and you, the LAMB...
It was with some trepidation that this podcast was set up. Kotaanisqatsi is an experimental film that uses visual images and an original Phillip Glass score to create what might be called a 90 minute visual poem. The absense of actores, script, dialogue, plot etc. suggested that this film might be difficult to process much less watch.
Come and be surprised at how much this week’s Lambcast crew was able to chew...
Before the flood of new movies starts in the summer season, we have a few special programs to offer you. This is #4 in our series “Off the Beaten Path”
The goal is to find some films that are not typically talked about. Sometimes the reason is that the movie is a cult film that only appeals to a specialized audience. Maybe it is a film from a bygone era that was never seen as a classic, but has something to recommend...
Originally kast as the klueless kharacter who has to have all of the plot and scenario explained to him, Richard was dropped from the production and Howard Kasner replaced him in the lineup. While not quite as klueless, Howard does manage to get a batch of nerdy fans thru a discussion of the latest movie based on a videogame to come down the chute.
Howard was joined in the lineup by Kameron Kanachki, Lisa Leaheey,...
Our bi-annual visit to the library of lists, yields five distinct sets of interest on this week’s show. Richard is joined by Heather Baxendale Walsh, David Brook, Stephen Palmer and Rebecca Sharp on a round robin dicusiion of some interesting movie topics.
Do you like books, well we have a list that gives you a chance to think about what kind of movie your favorite book would make. How about road trip films?...
Death and murder and violence are all over these movies, but you will hardly notice at all. There is no bloodshed, there is usually a musical interlude, and the most important element of the films is not the plot but the characters. Howard Casner championed “The Thin Man” series to victory in the latest MOTM poll and he takes over as host for our discussion of these classic films.
Howard and Richard are...
The movies in 2020 suffered a significant blow with the pandemic shutting down theaters around the world. Many films were held back but a number carried on with streaming access. Those conditions produced these results, films that are admired but are they worthy?
MovieRob takes the reins as host this week. Since he has been our key man on the Oscars for several years now, it makes sense that he knows what we are...
This week we have an epic battle for the Super duper heavyweight championship of the world. Two Iconic film creations face off in a fight that has been set up by three preceding films, and a hundred older films, cartoons and comic books.
In one corner, we have the old man of giant monster movies. He has been around since 1933, and he comes to us fighting out of Skull Island. Well over 800lbs, he was King long before a...
Are you ready for the most chaotic game of Lambpardy in the show’s sordid history? Strap in, this one’s a ride!
Three Lambpardy veterans – including two former champions – are here to battle it out, and with Dylan, Kai and Heather in the competitors’ seats, this was always going to be a raucous show, but Jay’s questions didn’t exactly help out! Who will win? Can anyone truly win at this...
