    The Movie of the Month for December 2014 is…

    The latest Movie of the Month has been decided upon!

    Seeing as we’re rounding the snow-covered, fairy-lighted, tinsel-bedecked corner of the Holiday Season, we’re having a special festive-themed Movie of the Month for December. I put the call out for movies and champions, and a decidedly eclectic mix of Christmas movies were entered. We had everything from classic family to foreign warfare, forgotten horror to...

    LAMBCAST #239 AUDITION MOTM

    We’re celebrating Halloween all month here on the Lambcast, and we’re kicking things off with the first ever horror-themed Movie of the Month. From a wide variety of scary movies, 1999’s Japanese torture-thriller Audition came out as the winner, so that’s what we talked about.

    LAMBCAST #235 FLASH GORDON MOTM

    FLASH! Aaaa-aaaaah!

    Get ready for a lot of that on this show. Also, myriad Brian Blessed impressions and a riotous good time as the gang discuss the ridiculously sublime Flash Gordon. You see, a few weeks ago we held an International Character Actor draft. A lot of movies got brought up, but one more than the rest, Flash Gordon. Blessed, Dalton and Von Sydow were all discussed at length on that show, which I’m pretty sure...

    LAMBCAST #230 GHOST WORLD MOTM

    There’s a lot of films in the world. A lot. Like, significantly more than a hundred. It’s pretty damn phenomenal then that two different LAMB members, who to their knowledge are not part of some paranormal cerebral link, submitted the same film for Movie of the Month, and that said film would win. Well, that’s what happened with Ghost World, Terry Zwigoff’s adaptation of Daniel Clowes’ cult graphic...

    LAMBCAST #226 TAXI DRIVER MOTM

     

    Martin Scorsese has a lot of classic movies under his belt, but you could argue that Taxi Driver was his first. IMDb describes it as “A mentally unstable Vietnam war veteran works as a night-time taxi driver in New York City where the perceived decadence and sleaze feeds his urge for violent action, attempting to save a preadolescent prostitute in the process,” but is there more to it than...

    LAMBCAST #222 BOOGIE NIGHT MOTM

    So it seems you people like listening to us talking about sex, what with last month’s winner being Shame, a movie focused on sex addiction, and this month’s winner being Boogie Nights, which is all about the porn industry in the 1970s and ’80s. So be it.

    Robert Zerbe was handed the hosting reigns for this show, and he was joined by regular host Jay Cluitt, Lindsay Street, MOTM champion Jess Manzo and newcomer...
