    01:51:53||Season 5, Ep. 1
    Welcome to the Final Season of the Trash Tapes podcast! As part of the journey to finally giving the podcast a proper send off, we kick off with the granddaddy of camp trash, as the boys take on 1981's Joan Crawford Biopic 'Mommie Dearest'. On this melodramatic episode, Johann is joined by Ed to see how this biopic is both a horror film and an unintentional comedy. From Faye Dunaway's method acting, the sheer drama, the ropy dialogue, the horror of child abuse, the production stories, its connection to the LGBTQ+ Community and THAT infamous scene... So much is happening! But is this camp classic the biggest mother of them all or is it just a nightmare? Come along and scream with us! NO WIRE HANGERS!Want to join the Cult Film Club?

  • 6. Not So Trash Reviews - Essay #6 - High Class Visions: Eyes of Laura Mars (feat. Darrell Buxton of Cine-Lit Podcast)

    01:16:00||Ep. 6
    On the latest episode of the 'Not So Trash Reviews', Johann is joined by Film Historian and co-host of the Cine-Lit podcast Darrell Buxton to look deep into the 'Eyes of Laura Mars', Hollywood's attempt at the high class Giallo with an early script by John Carpenter starring Faye Dunaway and Tommy Lee Jones. Not only will be explaining how underrated this gem is without spoilers but we will also be using this film to examine Culture Status Theory. What is the film attempting to say about glamour? What is considered as high society? Can sleaze and trash be considered art? Does controversy create cash? We will be attempting to find the answers to these questions with the visions this movie can give us.If you want to hear more from Darrell Buxton, check out the Cine-Lit podcast here (https://shows.acast.com/cine-lit)Original Music by Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio - ' 'Hackers' and 'Arcadia'Original score for Eyes of Laura Mars by Artie KanePrisoners performed by Barbra StreisandWant to support the show?

  • 6. Tape #42 - Hudson Hawk

    01:27:43||Season 4, Ep. 6
    With the sad news of Bruce Willis' retirement, Johann and Ed decide to pay tribute by examining his personal passion project, 1991's Hudson Hawk. Whistle a tune, plan a heist and prepare for looney tunes antics with this multi tonal hot mess of a project. Known for its troubled production due to the constant changes by the star himself, clashes with the director, producer and walk offs with fellow actors, it made for at least a 'unique' experience. So come along and face the many varieties of villains in this caper. Now... where is my cappuccino? Want to support the show?
