Happy Halloween everyone! From the team here at DMN we present to you an almost scary TV movie from the late 70s that Pete was willing to watch (because he said "I think I can handle this amount of scary"). Salem's Lot was an interesting choice because of the fact it was a TV mini-series that had to conform to ratings standards for broadcast TV. As…

The 80s were a magical time for teenage monster romcoms. We had so many questions on this charming, but weird, take on the vampire genre.

Pete has been clamoring to rewatch this movie for years and the podcast finally relented (only because we had to draw out of a hat)... This movie has everything and all from the mind of Brian's "favorite" director Terry Gilliam. We also had a special guest, the one and only Alice!

Carl Weathers was one of the best action heroes of the silver screen in our youth. Who could forget Apollo Creed or Dillon? Epic stuff right there. This movie, however..... was not any of those. It was a wild entertaining ride that the three of us are still trying to figure out if we were left wanting more... or just wanting something else. But man…

This might be one of those movies that you MUST watch and implore your children to watch when they are old enough. Thanks to Neil for getting us to put this one on the pod. You'll laugh at the absurdity, you'l cry at the themes that are even more relevant today than ever. 5 Stars

So. Many. Questions.... A fantasy romp that wasn't allowed to credit Robin Williams because his agents didn't want his named to be used to "pimp their film". This was a wild, wonky, donkey ride of epic proportions. Not sure if we are recommending it or just want you to see it so we can ask you our questions. Amazing set design and the always amazin…

It's always night time. It's dark. It's a city. If aliens were incompetent and didn't know how to research or cite their sources. Brian came up with this one and to be honest it was a hoot! Weird, fun overacting, and a patina of earnestness that was refreshing. Was it good? Did it hold up? Should it be rebooted? hmmmmm......…
