    Join Dom and Adam as they celebrate cinema's greatest scenes, charting franchises such as Alien, The Evil Dead, and Indiana Jones, and major movements in film history, like '80s Dark Fantasy, Winter Horror, and Cyberpunk.

    They Live (1988)
    Sep 30 2024

    What if aliens were already here? And all it took to see them was a pair of very rad 80s sunglasses? The Prince of Darkness returns one last time to answer these questions and more. And he’s bringing mullets, chewing gum, and Rowdy Roddy Piper with him.

    Next week, it’s a slight change of course! We’re going deep into an abyssal trench for a surprise reunion with James Cameron for his underwater odyssey, THE ABYSS. Join the conversation on Eye of the Discord at https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx.

  • Cocoon (1985)

    Cocoon (1985)
    Sep 23 2024

    There are alien cocoons in the pool! And they’re making the old people horny! Our hot streak of iconic directors continues this week with this weird and wonderful sci fi classic from Ron Howard. It’s COCOON, and yes, Wilford Brimley is surprisingly young in it.

    Next week, we return to the dark world of John Carpenter with THEY LIVE (1988). Join the conversation on Eye of the Discord at https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx.
