Cardboard Cinema Club

We broach the 21st Century for the first time, as Adam is joined by actual real-life Canadian* Shannon Fay - author of Innate Magic and External Forces - to discuss the infinitely rewatchable horror-comedy (or comedy-horror), Shaun of the Dead.You can find Shannon on Twitter @ShannonLFay and buy her books in all the usual book-buying places.https://twitter.com/retro_tube [at least till Adam sorts a Cardboard Cinema Club twitter account]https://shows.acast.com/cardboard-cinema-clubemail: retrotubepodcast@gmail.comAnd if you enjoy this, why not have a listen to our sibling podcast, RetroTube, using your ears or related senses.Theme tune by Berlin Horse(*presumably standing in for a New Yorker - there's a movie production joke for you)

Today's guest at the Cardboard Cinema Club is host of Goon Pod, Mr Tyler Adams. Adam chat to Adams about Lindsay Anderson's sequel to If... - now with added Alan Price - it's 1973's kaleidoscopic satirical art-house rock musical adventure film, O Lucky Man. (You can tell it's a meaningful film because 'Oh' is spelled 'O')TwitterTyler: @LapsedcatGoon Pod: @goonshowpodhttps://twitter.com/retro_tube [at least till Adam sorts a Cardboard Cinema Club twitter account]https://shows.acast.com/cardboard-cinema-clubemail: retrotubepodcast@gmail.comAnd if you enjoy this, why not have a listen to our sibling podcast, RetroTube, it's quite nice.Theme tune by Berlin Horse

Uh-oh - today, Adam is joined by his RetroTube partner, Heather Wainwright, to giggle their way through a discussion about their combined favourite film, The Beatles' surprisingly bad-tempered 1964 romp, A Hard Day's Night. And they ended up chatting and giggling for so long that it's been split up into two episode's worth of fangirling. But it's not just quoting lines and laughing: there's insight and analysis too, of a sort.https://twitter.com/retro_tube [at least till Adam sorts a Cardboard Cinema Club twitter account]https://shows.acast.com/cardboard-cinema-clubemail: retrotubepodcast@gmail.comAnd if you enjoy this, why not have a listen to our sibling podcast, RetroTube for more of this sort of thing, except telly. And if you don't, probably best to steer clear.Theme tune by Berlin Horse (it's Adam, but he's too shy to admit it).

In this episode, Adam is joined by a REAL DOCTOR, Dr Adrian Smith - though he's a doctor of film studies, so if anyone gets sick on the plane. he'll only be able to talk to them about the in-flight entertainment. He's here to discuss controversial 1932 masterpiece Freaks, traditionally billed as a horror film ("containing some of the most terrifying scenes in film history" according to one modern reviewer), but is it? Or is it actually for the most part a comedy-drama about disability, exploitation and fitting in?Adrian can be found on Twitter @retroramblings @thewildwildpod @SecondFeatures and his blog is here The Antonio Margheriti Blog (blogheriti.blogspot.com) https://twitter.com/retro_tube [at least till Adam sorts a Cardboard Cinema Club twitter account]https://shows.acast.com/cardboard-cinema-clubemail: retrotubepodcast@gmail.comWhy not have a listen to our sibling podcast, RetroTube Archive Television Podcast, about old telly and such.Theme tune by Berlin Horse

In this exciting* first episode of Cardboard Cinema Club, Adam is joined by Alex Pearson to chat about the classic 1981 John Landis horror-comedy, An American Werewolf In London. A naked American man stole their balloons - and they never did get the £2 they were promised - but they've vowed to plough on regardless like the troupers they are.*not legally bindingFind Alex on Twitter @momentomaureen @deathcapdancinghttps://twitter.com/retro_tube [at least till Adam sorts a Cardboard Cinema Club twitter account]https://shows.acast.com/cardboard-cinema-clubemail: retrotubepodcast@gmail.comWhy not have a listen to our sibling podcast, RetroTube Archive Television Podcast, about old telly and that.Theme tune by Berlin Horse
