Sometimes it takes perseverance, hard work and trying again and again to achieve success. That was the case for this month’s Movie of the Month winner, Audrey, who put Sing Street forward time and again until it eventually defeated the other competitors. That’s not so much a rule for the film though, in which sometimes you can just pick up a guitar and almost immediately be a great musician. Regardless, this week’...
Round 2 of October’s MOTM poll tournament is here! There were some tightly fought bouts in the first round, but only four films can move on, so let’s take a look at the results from round 1:
There we go, the four films moving on are Trick R Treat (2007), Mandy (2018), Candyman (1992) and Host (2020). It’s possible there’s some recency bias on display as the newest film in each match-up has proceeded onto...
It’s time to vote for October’s movie of the month! Hold up though, this month is a bit different. Not only is October’s Movie of the Month horror-themed, but it appears some ghostly gremlins have gotten into the polling plug-in, and are limiting the poll to at most three movies. This is a problem, as we’ve got ten! So for this month, and until this issue is resolved, we’ll be determining the MOTM with a...
Don’t mind us, we’re just talking about Sorry To Bother You, August’s Movie of the Month, no horsing around here.
Jay was joined by Jeanette, Nick, Marc and Lisa to delve into the bizarre world of Boots Riley’s 2018 directorial debut Sorry To Bother You and everything it entailed. This is a lesser seen film that everyone on the show recommends should be experienced before listening to...

It’s time to announce the latest Movie of the Month winner! In an effort to promote more films made by black film-makers, all 10 of this month’s submissions fitted that criteria, but as always there can be only one. So, for August 2020 and winning by just one vote after a 3-way tie, we’ll be watching… Sorry to Bother You!
There will be a Lambcast dedicated to Sorry to Bother You soon, so...
It’s movie of the month time, and this month we’re discussing the original 1962 version of The Manchurian Candidate!
Jay and Richard were joined by Nick, Damien and Sean to talk about judo fights, nonsense train conversations and the sweatiest top lips we’ve ever seen. Also, Jay tells 328 million people to sort themselves out.

It’s time to vote for August’s movie of the month! August is the birthday month of me, the LAMB Shepherd, so I have picked all ten choices for this month’s poll. I looked back at the history of the MOTM feature and realised that not many films have covered aspects of the non-white experience, so in the spirit of elevating POC voices in cinema I consulted with Lambcast regular Aaron Neuwirth to devise a list of ten films that...
