CAN'T STOP THE MUSIC (1980) Disco was long dead when super producer Allan Carr thought a full length feature starring Village People would be a good idea. It wasn't. Making matters worse, Carr turned the directorial reigns to Nancy "Rhoda's Mom
RAW (2016) Julia Ducournau's debut feature, the controversial 2016 French import, RAW, is this season's finest date movie, provided you eat your date. But seriously, please join The Popcorn Pals for Episode 57 of the burning stable we call a po
LADY BATTLE COP (1990) The Popcorn Pals return to Alamo's Video Vortex for Episode 56 of the podcast. The trailer for the 1990, Japanese, "Robocop" ripoff, LADY BATTLE COP, is a wonder to behold. The movie? Not at all! In fact, we got us a Ster
GET OUT (2017) For all you little punks out there in podcast land that've been writing in saying that The Popcorn Pals only talk about old movies and nobody wants to hear that so talk about new movies, and we said okay, to a point. We'll do our
THE GRADUATE (1967) And here's to you Mike Nichols. You made a better film than most people know. Whoa, whoa, whoa. But seriously folks, Episode 54 of the little spandau ballet we call our podcast finds The Popcorn Pals diving Dustin Hoffman-st
ICED (1988) Episode 53 of our podcast finds The Popcorn Pals streak of quality films shattered in a huge way with the 1988 Sterling Stinker, ICED. This ski lodge slasher is deliciously incompetent in every way, and is the very definition of a g
I AM NOT YOUR NEGRO (2016) Do you know who James Baldwin is? Even if the answer is yes, The Popcorn Pals urge you to see Raoul Peck's important and ultra-relevant Oscar-nominated documentary, 2016's, I AM NOT YOUR NEGRO. Brian "Girlfriends" Mc
HIDDEN FIGURES (2016) No, the allure of Oscar didn't draw The Popcorn Pals to 2016's HIDDEN FIGURES. Rather, it was the subject matter; a tale of race and gender in sixties America - a true story of which were unaware - that drew us in. Listen
TWIN PEAKS: FIRE WALK WITH ME (1992) Welcome one and all to EPISODE 50 of our podcast! Hard to fathom we've been doing this for a year now, but here we are. Also kind of hard to believe that it's taken this long for us to talk about a David Lyn
NATURAL BORN KILLERS (1994) Provocateur, Oliver Stone, has been one of the world's most controversial filmmakers since the eighties, but in the opinion of The Popcorn Pals, he stopped being one of the best some time ago. We stopped by our local
DUSTY AND SWEETS MCGEE (1971) Some "lost" movies are lost for a reason other than just being awful. Some don't make it to home video/streaming because the studio no longer has the rights to all the music. Such was the fate of writer-director Fl
JACKIE (2016) The Popcorn Pals had no intention of seeing Pablo Larraín's, JACKIE, but then we saw the trailer, and it looked to be more than the usual awards time biopic BS, so we decided to give it a go. Understatement to say that we're happy
EYES WIDE SHUT (1999) It was bound to happen sooner or later folks! Here we are at episode 46 of The Popcorn Pals podcast, and we are just getting to our first Stanley Kubrick film. The master's final film, 1999's EYES WIDE SHUT, has grown in s
EYES OF FIRE (1983) The Popcorn Pals love seeing older movies that they know nothing about, so we were very excited to go to our local Alamo for 1983's, EYES OF FIRE; a feature made by and starring nobody. Episode 45 of our podcast is a remembr
A CHRISTMAS STORY (1983) How Bob Clark's much loved chestnut from 1983, A CHRISTMAS STORY, went from cult classic to fodder for the masses is one of several topics The Popcorn Pals address in Episode 44 of our podcast. Is a movie less special b
PENNIES FROM HEAVEN (1981) Episode 43 of our podcast finds The Popcorn Pals welcoming guest reviewer Tessa Ferraro (drummer of the Chicago girl group, Teeth, president of the Alfred Hitchcock Fan Club, and lifelong Sis of Sam), as we go to BAM
THE BLACK CAT (1934) Just as Tina Turner wanted to know what love has got to do with it, Episode 42 of the podcast finds The Popcorn Pals wondering just what Edgar Allan Poe has got to do with the 1934 Universal Studios chiller, THE BLACK CAT,
THE SADDEST MUSIC IN THE WORLD (2003) The Popcorn Pals return from The Great White North and a two week hiatus to bring you Guy Maddin's epic tale of betrayal, lust, and beer, 2003's, THE SADDEST MUSIC IN THE WORLD. Thanks to all that have been
THE POINT (1971) Episode 40 finds The Popcorn Pals wondering what the point is, especially when there isn't one, with songwriter Harry Nilsson's animated musical from 1971, THE POINT. More than a moral story for children, grown-ups who don't un
A FACE IN THE CROWD (1957) Nearly 60 years old, yet more relevant than ever, is Elia Kazan's 1957 classic of power, corruption, and lies in television's "golden age", A FACE IN THE CROWD. Episode 39 of our podcast finds Andy Griffith and Patri
THE LAST MAN ON EARTH (1964) The Popcorn Pals say goodbye to Pal-O-Ween and hello to episode 38 of the podcast with our fave, the great Vincent Price, in the 1964 Italian production, THE LAST MAN ON EARTH. The first picture to use Richard Mathe
IT FOLLOWS (2014) The Popcorn Pals hope that all our fans are enjoying the Pal-O-Ween season as much as we are, as we welcome you to Episode 37 of our podcast. We are well aware that in the world of horror, sex equals death, and only the virgin
NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD (1968) With hindsight being 20/20, George A. Romero's 1968 zombie classic, NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD, has been called everything from an allegory of the war in Vietnam to a commentary on race relations in the US. In epis
CHRISTINE (1983) Welcome to the 35th episode of The Popcorn Pals podcast, and the official beginning of a little something we call, Pal-O-Ween! In addition to the Top 10 Horror Countdown we are doing weekly on our YouTube channel (check it out!
HIGH-RISE (2015) While the works of author J.G. Ballard are near and dear to The Popcorn Pals, his works are rarely adapted for the screen, and when they are, can either be tedious affairs, unworthy of the source material (EMPIRE OF THE SUN), o
