It’s mint! This week we hang out with a crew of teenage filmmakers…and one very big scary tarantula alien-looking guy.
It’s JJ Abram’s big budget 70s throwback adventure, with a hint of BLOW-UP, and a whole lot of Spielberg influence. It’s the final Amblin movie of our series!

Listeners, you didn’t ask for it, but we did it anyway. This week it’s the one alien we specifically promised we wouldn’t talk about…and he’s chill as hell.
Topics covered in our very deep dive of PAUL: Seth Rogen’s new show that seems dangerously similar to ENTOURAGE, whether or not Paul smells like shit, and of course, Grandpa Stevey Spielberg.
Next week, it’s JJ Abrams’s Amblin throwback, SUPER 8. Join the conversation on Eye of the Discord https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx.

It's James Gunn week on the pod, and we're (finally) talking about the DC Studio head and his origins as a down-and-dirty genre guy.
Between the mouth-stuffing slugs and Michael Rooker's lovably demented performance as a human meat volcano, SLITHER has a little bit of everything. And we're all for it.
Next week, we take a trip down to Johannesburg for our first Neill Blomkamp picture, DISTRICT 9. Join the conversation on Eye of the Discord https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx.

The 2000s have officially arrived, and they’ve brought invisible flying saucers, depressed reverends, and some very mean green creatures who hate water. It’s our very first M. Night Shyamalan movie this week, and a favorite of UFO heads and baseball fans alike. Swing away!

Teachers stink! It’s our very first Robert Rodriguez joint this week. And perhaps the most ‘90s movie ever made. Come for the deep dive on alien imposter horror…and stay for the very academic discussion of Josh Hartnett’s terrible haircut.
Next week, it’s another first for us — M. Night Shyamalan! We’re unrolling our tinfoil hats for one of his all-time greats, SIGNS. Join the conversation on Eye of the Discord https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx.

The Willenium is here, y’all. We’re hitting yet another Will Smith classic this week with the Barry Sonnenfeld buddy-alien-cop caper, MEN IN BLACK.
Aliens are here among us, and it turns out, the majority of them are weird little guys who live inside other bigger weirder guys. Listen in before we all get neuralyzed.
Next week, it’s another gnarly cult favorite (and our very first Robert Rodriguez), THE FACULTY. Join the conversation on Eye of the Discord https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx.

We're fighting for our right to live this week! It may not be July but we are very much celebrating Roland Emmerich's All-American UFO disaster epic that's sometimes called "ID4."
Joining us is returning champion and co-host of the very good Die Hard on a Blank podcast, Liam Billingham! Want to know why the heck this film is called ID4? Free yourself from annihilation and listen in!

This week, we’re going full tin foil hat mode to investigate the mysterious (and “true”) abduction of Travis Walton.
Did he really get probed? Are polygraph tests conclusive? Why didn’t Henry Thomas get any lines in this movie?! Joining us to answer these questions and more is our old friend and co-host of the Mostly Horror podcast, Sean Parker!

Surprise! We didn’t originally have a James Cameron alien movie on the list for this miniseries…but then we fell into an abyssal trench. And we found some non terrestrial intelligence down here! We simply could not pass up the chance to explore the depths of a production so notoriously grueling, Cameron himself described it as his “nightmare.” So come on in, the water is (definitely not) warm.
Next week, it’s the gnarly UFO cult favorite horror, FIRE IN THE SKY. Join the conversation on Eye of the Discord at https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx.

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.

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.

It's pod people, pop psychologists, mud baths, and one very grumpy health inspector this week. Philip Kaufman's iconic remake is bursting with 1970s cooky vibes, courtesy of Michael Chapman's singular cinematography, and Leonard Nimoy's very small leather glove. Best remake of all time?

Surprise! We are interrupting our regularly scheduled broadcasting for a very special transmission: The perfect organism is back! And so are we.
This week, we’ll be sharing our initial reactions to Fede Alvarez’s ALIEN: ROMULUS. No production history or duck scenes. Just raw, unfiltered Xenomorph worship. That’s right. It’s Xenomorph Summer again, baby.

Grandpa Steve is back, and he's brought all kinds of funny little guys with him this time! Spielberg's CLOSE ENCOUNTERS may have been overshadowed in its time by the likes of a small space opera movie called STAR WARS...but here at Eye of the Duck, we couldn't be more excited to celebrate all its hopeful (and neurotic) wonder.
