  • The Evil Dead
    Oct 28 2024

    The only thing worse than being a character in a Sam Raimi movie? Acting in one. This week, Chris and Lizzie unearth the grueling, injury-laden production of The Evil Dead. Discover the importance of such amenities as running water, toilets, and electricity; and the pain of removing fake blood with hot coffee. Plus, how Raimi couldn’t have done it without a veritable village, including a couple of Coens, a King of horror, and a septuagenarian sales agent.

  • Clueless
    Oct 14 2024

    Paul Rudd was almost murdered, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones were wasted, and El Niño threatened to rain out production - that’s just the beginning of what went wrong on Clueless (1995). Find out how Alicia Silverstone and Brittany Murphy got cast, and why one studio almost changed it to be more about… the guys? As if! It took writer/director Amy Heckerling years to get her vision to the screen, but it was like, totally worth it.

    CORRECTIONS: Chris mistakenly refers to having watched the Criterion Blu-Ray release of "Clueless" - there is no Criterion release! He actually watched the 25th Anniversary Blu-Ray which had been gifted to his wife in a flawlessly photoshopped Criterion package. He apologizes for the confusion but can confirm the transfer looks great.
