Well, here we are, back for the first episode of 2016. As promised during our episode with Paul Bishop from last year, we said we would discuss the latest instalment in the Rocky series - Creed. Anyway, we were due to break tradition, and cover a current blockbuster, so here it is.
Thanks to Paul for returning back with us on this one, it was a lot of fun.
Please excuse the whirring noise during the first couple of minutes of the episode, it was hotter than hell itself when Stuart was recording, and the sound you hear is the sound of his fan blasting at full pelt. It disappears real quick though.
Also, listen out for an announcement regarding our donation episode we still have available (for now anyway)
See ya next week
Enjoy

Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to violence! The word, and the act... and the podcast. That's right gang, this week, it's all about Russ Meyer, and his seminal film from 1965 - FASTER, PUSSYCAT! KILL! KILL!
We discuss Meyer's masterpiece, while also discussing how his films were lean in length (and not an overblown mess like modern films are today) and also the beauties that are, the 3 female leads in this film.
And as usual, we trail off into other areas of discussion. It will probably upset the socialists, but meh, f**k em.

This week we have decided to finally look at, in depth, the 1988 comedy classic, from the multi talented Hui Brothers 'Chicken and Duck Talk'.
A wonderful little comedy, that unfortunately nobody knows outside of Asia. So Stu and John decided that it was time, that you Westerners opened your eyes, and your minds a bit, to the comic styling of the Hui Brothers, and in particular, this little gem of a film.
So listen on, and prepare to get hungry.
See ya all next week.

Hey kids, you like up to the minute movie news right? Don't you love podcasts that date themselves, the moment they reference the news for that week?..... neither do we. HOWEVER, we decided to break protocol, and try our hand at it (with tongue planted somewhat in cheek), the results are, well, another movie news week podcast, hence the subheading - WORST EPISODE EVER.
Fear not, this is definitely not a new path we will be taking, we are back to our normal format (do we even have a format?) next week. This is just us highlighting, how booorrrrrriiinnnggg those Hollywood news podcast episodes can be Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Welcome folks to another episode of the MMC. This week, we were very fortunate to be joined by legendary LAPD Detective turned author - Paul Bishop.
It's information overload on this one, as Paul is kind enough to share some of his stories, of his time in the LAPD, along with his thoughts on the O.J Simpson case, and the subsequent trial. He also regales us with his first hand account, of his time on the frontline during the L.A riots of 1992.
But that's not all, as we said, he is also an author, and a prolific one at that. He discusses his books with us (and his upcoming new one LIE CATCHERS)
BUT, that's still not all, we also discuss the differences of portrayals of Police Officers in Hollywood, on the big and small screen, compared to that of real life.
It all makes for a fascinating listen, we cannot thank Paul enough for joining us, and look forward to having him back again, with us, in the near future.
Enjoy.
You can find Paul, and his works in the links below.
Go visit his website and buy his books HERE
You can also buy his FIGHT CARD Book series HERE
Follow Paul on Twitter HERE
Find Paul's page on Facebook HERE
And finally, buy Paul's books on Amazon HERE

Tickets please !!! Got anybody in the trunk? Yes? Go on get outta here. Hey all, this week, we trek into drive-in territory, and look at a couple of AIP flicks from the 50's - INVASION OF THE SAUCERMEN plus HOW TO MAKE A MONSTER.
We talk about the benefit, sometimes, of a shorter leaner film, compared to a bloated modern day Hollywood feature. We also discuss the crude special effects of Hollywood back in the 50's, and, the films at hand of course.
So ease the seat back, stock up at the concession stand, and enjoy.
See you all next week.
NOTE: The sound on this episode is replicated to sound like it was broadcast out of a drive-in car speaker, there is nothing wrong with your sound system. We will return to normal sound next week.

NB: The last half an hour or so of this episode, Stu's mic suddenly becomes double-tracked. It is certainly noticeable, but won't detract from the conversation at hand. The problem has been singled out and will not happen again.

Did you guys know that iconic magician Harry Houdini was also a movie star? Neither did we. In this episode, John and Hunter explore one of Houdini's outings, The Man From Beyond, which is available on Netflix, and is strangely ahead of its time. You'll even get to hear Houdini's actual voice at the top of the show! We also discuss Houdini's career, the History Channel movie about Houdini starring Adrian Brody, and other tangents.
Also, if you've been enjoying the show, please head over to iTunes and give us a rating. If you're feeling generous, leave us a brief review. It would help us out a great deal, and we would really appreciate it. As always, thanks for listening, we'll have another show up very soon.

Netflix Roulette is back, and this time, Hunter and Andrew take a look at a remake of a film discussed awhile back on the show, The Town That Dreaded Sundown, and let me tell you, people, this one is a doozy. We are two for two in picking out bonkers remakes on Netflix Roulette, I feel like we need to watch something nice and tasteful next time. This one plays like a mix of Wes Craven's New Nightmare and an eighties Dario Argento movie. Listen to find out our thoughts, and let us know what you thought of it!

So, your pals here over at the MMC have finally hit their 100th episode, and it is definitely, our most self indulgent one. However, we think you will dig it.
For the first half hour , we discuss what we liked and didn't like, of the films released in 2014. Now, this was not planned, but, we were talking about it right before we recorded, and thought, well let's save it for the show, seeing as we never had any plans to do a full show dedicated to it.
The following 2 hours (or so) is us, sitting back and talking about the behind the scenes, and what we did and didn't like, on (nearly) all our previous episodes. That's right, we sit and talk about all our previous episodes, and shed some light onto them, from the ones who were there.
And just for a bit of nostalgia, the very first thing you hear on the show? Well, it was 2 guys, way back in August 2010.....
Finally, a big thank you to anybody and everybody who has, and especially the ones who continue, to listen to us. We cannot thankyou enough. We ain't done yet baby.
See ya next week
Enjoy.
NOTE: The last 15 mins or so, have minor technical issues, Stu's mic was playing up. The problem is only small, but noticeable. We have fixed the problem.
