B & S About Movies podcast Episode 138: The movies that shaped The Misfits

Born in Lodi, New Jersey, The Misfits are a horror punk band that were originally around from only 1977 to 1982 — in their original incarnation — before years of legal wrangling and new lineups finally gave way to a series of reunions that began in 2016. Along the way, nearly every song had a movie reference. Let’s get into it!

B & S About Movies podcast special episode 23: Olivia Serdy defends Star Wars

Olivia Serdy works with me and we discuss movies quite often. I was excited to have her on, especially because I wanted to see if she could get me to admit that I don’t hate all of the Star Wars prequels. We jump around to a lot of franchises, but I think if you are interested in 2000s culture, introducing movies to your kids and being nerdy, you’ll have fun with this episode.

Talking Rats The NIght of Terror on the Rad Revival House

I had the awesome chance to be on this podcast and I’ll let Professor Cesare Augusto tell you all about it!

The Rad Revival House explores the gruesome sub-genre of Italian Sci-Fi Exploitation cinema with the bonkers 1984 picture, RATS: NIGHT OF TERROR

Appearing for the first time on our show as Special Guest Lecturer is Sam Panico of the cool AF cult film website B&S About Movies. Along with our host, Professor Cesare Augusto, Sam offers his enthusiastic insight about RATS and its bizarre take on the post-apocalyptic sub-genre of Science Fiction.

After a nuclear war devastates the world, the human race has been split into two: the surface world, and the subterranean world. Making their way through the barren surface world is a diverse gang of misfit bikers, scavengers grabbing everything they can get to survive and enjoying themselves, too. They stumble upon a deserted research facility that is grotesquely infested with hordes upon hordes of disgusting, diseased-filled rats! One by one, the bikers are killed by the genetically-enhanced vermin, until a small few are left to fight for their survival.

Cesare and Sam discuss the nasty yet surprisingly compelling production within RATS, how director Bruno Mattei was able to masterfully create a grim atmosphere despite a low budget, and how the picture’s special effects are effectively performed WITHOUT the use of slick special effects. RATS, as Sam said, is a strong example of how filmmakers can excel at being weird and being memorable, without having otherwise prolifically artistic visions in mind!

Talking The Beyond on the Making Tarantino podcast

On this episode Phillip was joined once again by Sam Panico, the host of B and S about Movies Podcast and the co-host of Drive In Asylum on YouTube and Facebook. Phillip starts the show by giving the general information about the movie. After that Phillip and Sam talk about The Beyond as well as several other things. It always gets this way when Phillip and Sam get together. In between all this Phillip reads Listener’ Opinions from Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. Later on they talk about whether they noticed anything from The Beyond that Tarantino might have liked or used in a film. They individually rate the movie. Then they answer whether they would buy this movie, rent it, or find for free. Phillip then gives his Phil’s Film Favorite of the Week, and then Sam gives his recommendation; The Libertine (1968). It’s then time for Phillip to promote next week’s show when he will be by himself to talk about 1986’s Dead End Drive-In.
