PODCAST SHOUTOUT: Christian and Damon's Amazing Nerd Show
SHOWNOTES: Welcome back podphiles and cinephiles! As we hinted at previously on our episode featuring The Room, we finally got around to watching and analyzing the 2017 comedic drama/movie-making biopic The Disaster Artist, and we fully admit to nerding out hardcore over this one. As everyone knows, we were huge fans of Tommy Wiseau's legendary so-bad-its-awesome flick, and we could totally feel the sheer love and fandom displayed here by the Franco brothers and every single actor that made this hilarious adaptation of Greg Sestero's and Tom Bissel's landmark peek behind The Room's production. We discuss the journey this story made to be on the silver screen, James and Dave Franco's amazingly adept performances of Tommy and Greg, the uncannily awesome recreations of key scenes from The Room, the many liberties taken with the actual story from the book, and how this movie has become an indispensable companion piece to The Room itself. We hope you join us for our dive into The Disaster Artist, and feel free to leave us a comment and rate/review us! Also, introducing for the first time on this podcast, new host Dakota Chancellor, brother of our own Ashley Chancellor!

SHOWNOTES: Welcome to Season Two of Collateral Cinema Movie Podcast, cinephiles! We are totally excited to bring you another season of fun yet hard hitting film analyses and reviews, and we decided to bring one of the most talked about horror movie reboots in recent memory straight from the theaters: David Gordon Green's and Danny McBride's 2018 reboot of the all-time great slasher movie, Halloween! We trekked to our local cinema, and were floored by what has become one of the most successful slasher releases in quite a while—even beating It: Chapter One's giant October opening(!)—and we were stoked to talk about Jamie Lee Curtis' powerhouse performance, the truly menacing return of Michael Myers as "The Shape", the many callbacks to previous installments in the franchise, the absolutely jarring thematic elements, and even the show-stealing performance of young up-and-comer Jibrail Nantambu! We also give a little love to the Cinema Snob's series of reviews for the Halloween franchise, and celebrate the absolutely wonderful realization that BEN TRAMER LIVES!!! So sit back, grab a pumpkin spice beer (lol), and come with us, as we dive into one of our favorite new horror releases in recent times!

SHOWNOTES: Collateral Cinema is back, cinephiles! On this extra-special post-season episode, we are joined by guest host Chazz Raab of the Trial By Error Variety Show podcast (@tbevarietyshow), and he brought us a bit of a left-fielder for a film: David Gebroe's 2002 romantic horror flick, Zombie Honeymoon. While this movie is certainly made for TV quality, it still engaged us with its likable characters, spirited directing, and heartfelt storyline with a surprisingly sad backstory. Chazz also talks a bit about Trial By Error and what he has in store for his listeners in the near future. So cuddle up with your (undead) significant other, and join us for all the zombie madness! And yes, Season Two will be premiering very, very soon, so we'll see you cinephiles later!!!

SHOWNOTES: That's right, fellow movie geeks; Collateral Cinema is back, and we've finally reached the final episode of Season One! On this season finale, Beau, Rob, and Ash decided to go full-on cult movie mode (again! Lol) as we review and analyze the absolutely batshit-insane 1991 martial arts/exploitation classic, Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky, which has the head exploding scene used on the Craig Kilborne-era of Comedy Central's Daily Show! This movie is legendary for its absolutely excessive gore, which soaks the screen (and its actors as well!) with more blood than you can shake a Deadite at, and the martial arts action that causes all the mayhem, as well as the amazingly exaggerated acting and dialogue, makes for a graphic experience that we'll always enjoy with every viewing. So join us, as we send off our first season with tons of gore, and more than a few ham-fisted performances!

Ep 11: Harmony Korine's Gummo – Collateral Cinema Movie Podcast (SPOILERS)
Monday Aug 20, 2018
Monday Aug 20, 2018
Title: Gummo [Wikipedia] [IMDb]
Director: Harmony Korine
Producers: Scott Macaulay, Robin O'Hara, Cary Woods, Nifty da Saurus
Writer: Harmony Korine
Stars: Linda Manz, Max Perlich, Jacob Reynolds, Chloë Sevigny, Jacob Sewell, Nick Sutton
Release date: October 17, 1997
SHOWNOTES: Welcome to our rural American nightmare, Collateral Cinema listeners! That's right, hosts Beau, Robert, and Ash go back to the 90s arthouse, as we explore Harmony Korine's (@harmfulkorine) classically disturbing 1997 debut, Gummo. This film challenged us in many, many ways; with it's unique approach to cinematography, complete lack of a three-arc story structure, use of non-actors for realistic impact, stream of consciousness script writing, and the nightmarish dive into the depravity and emptiness of the American dream. This movie is peircing, haunting, disturbing, and unlike anything else released before or since; join us, as we barely scratch the surface of this twisted American psycho-drama, and take a trip with us into the dark underbelly of the American Zeitgeist.

Ep 10: Tom Green's Freddy Got Fingered – Collateral Cinema Movie Podcast (SPOILERS)
Saturday Aug 04, 2018
Saturday Aug 04, 2018
Title: Freddy Got Fingered [Wikipedia] [IMDb]
Director: Tom Green
Producers: Larry Brezner, Howard Lapides, Lauren Lloyd
Writer: Tom Green, Derek Harvie
Stars: Tom Green, Rip Torn, Marisa Coughlan, Eddie Kaye Thomas, Julie Hagerty
Release date: April 20, 2001
SHOWNOTES: "You hear that, Collateral Cinema fans? They're my hooooves! My hooooooooooooves!!!! Listen as they go clippity-clop, clippity-clop! Hahahahahahahah!"
...Oh yeah, folks; Collateral Cinema is taking on Tom Green's (@tomgreenlive) impressively surreal, yet universally panned 2001 absurdist comedy Freddy Got Fingered! We're wholly convinced this film is far more deserving of actual film analysis than it has received in the past, so hosts Beau, Robert, and Ash dissected and analyzed Tom Green's brazenly original humor, the strangely karma-free universe the movie operates in, each and every memorable bit of writing and acting, and every infinitely quotable scene. We also dive into the heady times that were pre/post-9/11 film culture. We also put forth an argument for Freddy Got Fingered to receive a place in the venerable Criterion Collection, and we dive into the massively negative critical response to this work, and how Freddy Got Fingered achieved a solid cult following and critical renaissance in the past few years. So remember in closing, Collateral Cinema fans:
"I'm the backwards man, the backwards man; I can walk backwards fast as you can! I'm the backwards man, the backwards man..."

Director: John G. Avildsen
Producers: Irwin Winkler, Robert Chartoff
Writer: Sylvester Stallone

Release date: December 3, 1976 (US)
SHOWNOTES: Collateral Cinema is back in action, ya'll! Hosts Robert, Beau, and Ash return to analyze, review, and deconstruct the 1976 iconic boxing/sports epic, Rocky! Sylvester Stallone gave us one of his all-time classic performances for this movie, and we feel this is truly a film that is more pertinent and more necessary in these trying times; we were truly blown away by how well it holds up all these years. We talk about Stallone's overall career, the anime-esque feel to Rocky's character, the autobiographical nature of Stallone's writing, and how Rocky is the quintessential modern American folk hero. Join our discussion, and prepare to be inspired!
