We lost a few guests on the show but we did get a set of lists that cover the year pretty well. Howard Casner as usual, wants strictly the best. Tony Coogan is up to date on all the animation films that came out in 2010, and Richard plays action junkie on this weeks show. Get ready for the wayback machine to take you to your youth, or for two people on the show, their middle age.

It's spooky season on the Lambcast, Halloween is coming and horror films are everywhere. We got a request a few weeks ago for a show that focuses on earlier horror films so it seemed like the right time for another draft episode. This week we have some incredibly strange creatures who stopped living and became mixed up movie bloggers. There are a few reasons that we limited the entries to this time period. First, that was the suggestion from a listener that prompted the episode to begin with. A second reason is that I am looking for films that donât always get covered during the season. Let's try to broaden our tastes. Another reason is that 1973 marked a transition in horror films with âThe Exorcistâ breaking out of the horror ghetto and becoming a mainstream success. And finally, this limitation means that I donât have to engage one more time in an argument over whether or not âJawsâ is a Horror film. Aaron Neuwirth, Howard Casner, David Brook, Dave Anderson, and Todd Liebenow enjoy a "spirited" competition over their favorite older horror movies. Frankly, it is horrifying when the film you want is chosen right before your turn, listen to Howard scream repeatedly if you want proof.

The October MOTM is a horror film, in recognition of Halloween and this year we have a truly frightening film, but still with a lot of humor. It comes from director Sam Rami, so that mixture will be no surprise to the deadites out there, but this film does not feature Bruce Campbell. Instead, we get Alison Lohman, being physically and mentally abused as a curse threatens to take her to hell via a violent lamia. Matthew Simpson of the Awesome Friday Podcast was the movie's champion, and he takes over the hosting duties. Damien Riley of "But I Digress" spends a lot of time admiring Miss Lohman in the film, and we talk about out favorite horror film directors as well. Plenty of spoilers, but with a film titled "Drag Me to Hell" you have a pretty good idea of what is coming.

The polarizing dram project from Francis Ford Coppola has arrived in cinemas and thew Lambcast i9s there to talk about it. This week's episode is filled with a range of opinions, some of the guests found the movie abysmal, while others heaped high praise on it's artistry. One of the group gets yelled at for praising the film while not giving it a recommendation. We had no shortage of options. Daniel Lackey, Howard Casner, James Wilson and Aaron Neuwirth share their ideas, opinions and feelings, and isn't that what we all come here for? It is certainly not to check out any boners.

The September Movie of the Month was chosen by James Wilson of "Blogging by Cinema Light". His choice of "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington" comes after three previous attempts with narrow losses. This week was no competition and James hosts the show. He is joined by Damien Riley of "Riley on Film" and also by Matthew Simpson from "The Awesome Friday Podcast". Mr. Smith is one of the ten nominees for Best Picture at the Academy Awards, from 1939, a year that is considered the greatest in American Film History. Two of the people on this week's episode are veterans of the film, but the other two saw it for the first time this week. Come listen to us talk about this Classic film and why it is timeless and essential.

Say it three times in a row quickly, and it will appear. Lambcast, Lambcast, Lambcast!
This week on the show we summon the legacy sequel to the 1988 Tim Burton film, "Beetlejuice". Burton comes out of directing sabbatical to reteam with his muse Michael Keaton. They are joined by returning cast members Winona Ryder and Catherine O'Hara for a journey to the next world. The film is already a big hit, but does it deserve to be? Emily Slade, Rachel Wagner and The Vern huddle up to discuss the merits and faults of "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice". WE also discuss some film makers with distinctive styles and pick out our favorite Tim Burton films. -
This week is a do it yourself show. The five Lambs have assembled individual lists of movie related subjects and we share them in a Top Five Round Robin. Thomas Stoneham Judge is TIFF bound so his list features Audience favorites over the years. Howard Casner answers the question Tubi or not Tubi. Tony Coogan is not satisfied with a movie, he wants to see it on stage as well. Todd Liebenow is stuck in the 80s, but at least he has the Mall to hang out in. Finally, Richard is trying to score some tickets to the latest concert by a whole set of acts, but is having trouble finding their tour schedules.

It is the 50th Anniversary of "The Towering Inferno", and enough members of the community thought that was a justification to vote for it in this month's poll. It turns out, we did this as a MOTM back in 2016, and for the moment, that is a lost episode. This episode is not lost and Dave Anderson from "Free Kittens Movie Guide" hosts the discussion. James Wilson and Matthew Simpson join the cast for this explosive disaster film from 1974.

The Alien Franchise has been around for forty-five years now, and there have been ups and downs along the way. Fede Alverez, the director of the "Evil Dead" re-boot and "Don't Breathe" has been given the reins and our cast this week is ready to chime in on his work. We go spoiler free for the first half hour, but if you have seen the original film, there is nothing here that will surprise you. Heather Baxendale-Walsh, Lisa Leaheey and Damien Riley are all horror mavens, so Alvarez starts with a loaded deck, come find out how well we thought he played his hand.

Six Lambs enter, One Lamb Leaves, at least if the community votes. This is a draft show with six slates of films, competing for your approval. Damien Riley, Aaron Neuwirth, Todd Liebenow, The Vern, Howard Casner and Richard Kirkham, struggle to choose from all the 1984 films available, to come up with a winning team. Do they choose films they love, or will they choose films they think you will love? Listen and find out if your favorites are selected and if so by who.

No doubt this will be one of the big films of the Summer for 2024. Whether or not it deserves to be is the subject of our conversation on the Lambcast this week. Jeffrey Lyles from Lyles Movie Files, Bubba Wheat from Flights, Tights and Movie Nights and Pop Art's Howard Casner, join the show to mouth off about the two mouthiest superheroes in comic book films. The show is PG-13 but the movie is definitely an R. The spoiler wall comes down early (about 15 minutes in) and then you will hear plot talk, cameo appearances, and assorted other secrets of this hybrid Disney/Fox MCU film.

Nostalgia for 1984 runs rampant in this week's episode as we check in on "The Last Starfighter". Matthew Simpson hosts the conversation as the champion of the film, but Richard and Todd Liebenow are right there with him as we trapse down memory lane. Tony Coogan provides a perspective on the film from a first time watcher just a few weeks ago. So join us as we tout 80s Digital effects, heartwarming story elements and the great contributions of two film veterans to a teen Sci-Fi film from one of the great years in movies.

It only feels right that the Lambcast guests this week are of an age that they actually remember the Moon landing in 1969. Everyone else will of course remember Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum, two actors not born when the film they have made was set. A romantic comedy based on the loopy conspiracy theory that the Moon Landing was faked? Are we going to be pissed off, or charmed? You will have to listen to Howard Casner and James Wilson as they join Richard for this Trip to the Moon.

This week we try to catch up with some movies that we haven't been able to cover in the last two months. Jeffrey Lyles, Tony Coogan and the Vern join the show to share the ups and downs of recent cinema encounters. If you are looking for a "Hit Man" or want a date with "Maxxxine", this is the place to be this week. So have some "Robot Dreams" while you are working the "Night Shift", a "Young Woman and the Sea" could do worse than these "Kinds of Kindness, ask "Axel F".

The first of at least three and maybe four films covering the expansion of the U.S. into the west, is the subject of our show this week. Actor/Writer/Director Kevin Costner has an ambitious story to tell and a huge canvas to paint it on. It may be a financial gamble but the three people on this week's episode don't think it is anything less than an artistic triumph. If you have heard differently, you owe it to yourself to listen to this point of view, we were all enthusiastic.

This week we have three characters talking about three characters. Howard Casner and James Wilson mount up on their hogs to join Richard as we take a trek into the past with Jeff Nichol's "The Bikeriders". Tom Hardy, Jodie Comer and Austin Butler portray the three main characters in the story and we have some fun with their accents. The screenplay comes in for some tough scrutiny and the question comes up "Is there a story or is this an anthropology lesson?" We Finish off with a Viggo Mortenson Western, some TUBI talk, and a Maxxxine preview. Check your tank to make sure you have enough gas to get through the whole episode.

Lots of emotions on this show, most of which did not get a character in the movie. "Surprise" should have been here from the beginning, "Frustration" was shadowing Nicole as she got locked out of the film not once but twice. "Confusion showed up when Damien joined the show an hour in, and "Disappointment" hovered around Rachel and Richard, despite the fact they generally liked the movie. Join us for a very loosely structured discussion of "Inside Out 2". You might have a little "Anxiety" when you listen to some of the tangents we take, but you will be filled with "Joy" when you listen to the answers to the exit question of the week.

Hello everyone and welcome to the Lambcast. This week we are going back in time, 26 years to the decade of the 1990s.
In 1998 the Euro was created as a currency for Europe.
President Clinton is caught with his pants down and lies about it.
76 Million people watch the last episode of Seinfeld
Frank Sinatra Dies and
Viagra is approved by the FDA
Titanic wins a bunch of Academy Awards as the Best film of the previous year, and future Rivals for Best Picture-Saving Private Ryan and Shakespeare in Love are released.
We are doing a deep dive on the films of 1998 this week, and we have some springboard champs to do a triple somersault for you. Brian Eggert, David Brook, Dave Anderson are with us live and Matthew Simpson and Aaron Neuwirth offer opinions from another dimension.

The "senior" staff at the Lambcast check out the new entry in the Mad Max Cycle (Motorcycle that is) of films. It takes two actresses to replace Charlize Theron, so the movie has some pretty distinct sections. We talk structure, action sequences and story and we get side tracked a couple of times on tech issues, but it's all very educational. The exit question of the week involves car stunts, maybe one you like was mentioned. Damien Riley, Daniel Lackey and James Wilson share their takes with Richard on George Miller, drug use for movie viewing and runtimes. This week at least the podcast is shorter than the movie.
