At the Movies with William Fletcher

Episode 204: The Running Man

What's that? Two episodes in one week?! Indeed, you lucky ducks, as we're looking at The Running Man this week as well discussing the work of Stephen King, Arnold Schwarzenegger and 80s action movie cheese.

Here is the link to the short film my guest mentioned:

Episode 203: Predator

Another longer gap between episodes but we're back with the Predator franchise which we couldn't really pass up on after doing the Alien franchise last year.

Episode 202: Frankenstein

After a delay, we're back with a look at the history of Frankenstein and the career of Guillermo del Toro because there's a new Frankenstein out directed by Guillermo del Toro which is the only reason we cover certain films now.

Episode 201: Tron

Going more for a cult classic film this week with a look at Tron because there's a sequel out soon but you know how this show works now.

Episode 200: Jaws

It's the big'un. Episode 200. For such a momentous occasion, we're covering one of the biggest classics and most important films in cinema history with Jaws. 

Episode 199: Pain & Gain

A very out of nowhere choice (especially before episode 200) but we decided to cover a film that is really archetypical of Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson before The Smashing Machine comes out and he shows his chops as a dramatic actor with Pain & Gain.

Episode 198: Paul Thomas Anderson

We're back with another look at a directorial filmography, this week with Paul Thomas Anderson as we start from Hard Eight and work our way to the present with a look forward at One Battle After Another.

Episode 197: This Is Spinal Tap

A cult favourite this week with This Is Spinal Tap but we do talk about comedy in general and the mockumentary subgenre.

Episode 196: Clue

A bit of an offbeat choice this week as we delve into the world of murder mysteries with a look at the 1985 cult classic, Clue.

Episode 195: No Country for Old Men

Going the complete opposite direction from last week with a far darker and muted approach with the Coen Bros. No Country for Old Men.
