NEXT EPISODE = Midnight Marathon: I, FRANKENSTEIN x FRANKENSTEIN UNBOUND // The Modern Prometheus Part 3

oops, too many frankensteins!! noah and eliza are the modern podmetheus in this electrifying midnight marathon, taking a look at just six of the HUNDREDS of film adaptations of mary shelley’s 1818 novel.

Guillermo del Toro’s lavish, fussy FRANKENSTEIN and Maggie Gyllenhaal’s quirked up THE BRIDE! remix were both released over the last 6 months or so. the monster is still alive in the (bolt-studded) brains of filmmakers and audiences 200 years on from its unholy invention

The gang get to monster MASHIN in this introductory marathon chapter, sewing together the rotten parts of 2 highly personal and flawed adaptations… did GDT just get around to making his shelley movie way too late ? what is a brain attack?

come up to da lab and see what’s on the slab - four frankensteins to go!!

NEXT EPISODE = Midnight Marathon: THE CURSE OF FRANKENSTEIN x FRANKENHOOKER // The Modern Prometheus Part 2

it’s a film nerd coming-of-RAGE - and dear friends of the pod Parker and Flynn are here ta dish the dirt !!

Pls welcome back the Underground Film Collective (Parker Constantine and Flynn Boffo), who have travelled ALL the way from Sydney to creep inside the studio and talk THE DIRTIES - Canadian indie maverick Matt Johnson’s directorial debut.

Balancing big edgelord laughs and profound empathy for its characters, this (very) dark comedy sees Johnson and Owen Williams playing bullied teens whose fantasies of revenge spiral into sinister action.

If (like us) u just got into NIRVANNA THE BAND THE SHOW THE ETC, or loved Johnson’s BLACKBERRY and OPERATION AVALANCHE, this emo cinephile high school diary will rattle n impress you. AND it’s just been released in a nifty Umbrella box-set with brilliant essays from Flynn and dear pod pal Ivana Brehas!!!

We r all mad about Matt and keen to break down those tantalising, sometimes wafer-thin barriers the filmmaker sets between his IRL self and his striving film bro characters. listen up to hear us tryin to keep up with the Johnson(s)!!!
