BMFcast439 – Of Unknown Origin – Scotch Bath

Of Unknown Origin (1983) is not what you expect. It’s the story of a businessman (Peter Weller) who wages war with a rat inside his home. And that’s it. He fights the rat. A lot. The rat is smart. Weller gets obsessed. They fight. One of them wins.

In the second half we rant about digital streaming and then BJ checks in with looks at Event Horizon and The Martian before we all dive headfirst into some film theory. Enjoy!

BMFcast415 – Shakedown – Homemade Orange Julius

Shakedown (1988) is a bizarre mashup of courtroom action with late-’80s cop movie action insanity. Peter Weller is a loose-cannon lawyer working with Sam Elliott’s not-so-loose-cannon cop to take down a drug ring of crooked cops. Many a stuntman was likely injured in bringing you this craziness.

In the second half we get Oscar-happy as BJ loves Coco (2017) and Harlo has thoughts on The Shape of Water (2017).
Then it’s not-so-Oscary as we discuss the New Star Trek Trilogy and give a recommendation for listener Jens’ new podcast, The Goldsmith Oddyssey.

BMFcast84 – Polymath

Ahh the 80s when pink and purple wide untied ties were considered cool.

The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across The 8th Dimension (1984) is this week’s review from 1984. That title was long enough to type so we’ll let the review speak for itself.

Second half we pick our winners for the Facebook Fan contest as we cross 100! Plus, we take a voicemail topic and discuss our favorite Westerns/Samurai films.
