Icarus (2017)

Sun, 20 Mar 2022 15:26:00 +0000

Carlsen picks Icarus for our theme of films that swap genres. True to the theme, it starts as a Supersize Me-style documentary before turning into a much scarier and more timely documentary. Spoiler warning, we get a little political because Vladimir Putin uses the Olympic wins to bolster Russian patriotism to invide the Ukraine... just like what is happening now.

Howard The Duck

Fri, 09 Jul 2021 14:00:00 +0000

Lea Thompson and Tim Robbins are the best part of this movie. This movie asks what sex with a duck is like if the duck comes from a species of ducks with boobs, but this is just a boy duck so no boobs, but I remember this being a scaring memory from my childhood. Why did the lady want to kiss the duck? Who would make this movie mommy? I want to go back to duck planet, why is Howard sitting in a boring diner talking to humans and not going to duck planet. Ducks have cloaca.

Power has taken us into the heart of "In Your Eyes" by Peter Gabriel playing from a Boombox held aloft by John Cusack since it is an early meme.
We are all surprised that Ione Skye is the real lead character.

Bugsy Malone (1976)

Fri, 02 Apr 2021 21:05:05 +0000

For this round our significant others are picking what movies we watch!
Shannon has picked Bugsy Malone! She joins us as we attempt to parse a crime musical directed by Alan parker (The Wall) starring a tiny Scott Baio (Zapped!) and Jodie Foster (Taxi Driver). Also, Dexter Fletcher (Rocket Man, Eddie The Eagle) in a tiny role.
Remember listeners, like the song says, "People will remember you for what you say and do."

The Color Out Of Space (2019)

Thu, 18 Mar 2021 19:24:56 +0000

Boruff just can't stick to a simple task. He was asked to pick out a film about being stuck in a place and he decided Richard Stanley's psychedelic vision of Lovecraft's short story was just the ticket.
They are stuck at the farm, we suppose.

Bring Me The Head of Alfredo Garcia (1974)

Fri, 05 Mar 2021 15:00:00 +0000

Zach pulls a cat out of the bag in the form of a severed head. Spoiler warning, Alfredo Garcia loses his head and people have to find it. Richard Carlsen helps give clarity to what we watched and why his brother is cheating. We attempt to find the meaning of a film about violence that also includes "comedy" scenes involving Warren Oates self managing a "crabs" infection. And finally, what do Charlie Brown and Jim Reardon have to do with this film?

The Wild Bunch (1969)

Fri, 19 Feb 2021 15:00:00 +0000

Carlsen cheats the vote by declaring the new theme of "films by Sam Peckinpah" and picking The Wild Bunch immediately.
Richard Carlsen guests for this run to give context/justice.

Dr. Strangelove (1964)

Fri, 05 Feb 2021 15:00:00 +0000

Carlsen's picked Dr. Strangelove for best film with an actor playing multiple roles and it might be unbeatable.
We are joined by the wonderful Shannon Campe who saw the film for the first time for this podcast.
Dr. Strangelove (1964) directed by Stanley Kubrick starring Peter Sellers, Peter Sellers, Peter Sellers, and Slim Pickins.

Enemy (2013)

Fri, 22 Jan 2021 15:00:00 +0000

Boruff gives Denis Villeneuve's Enemy a blind shot and ends up getting more giant spider confusion that anyone asked for. Two Jake Gyllenhaal's meander through an 1 hour and 35 minutes of moody cinematography, "minimalist" plotting, and surrealism.

Based off Jose Saramago's The Double and not to be confused with The Double (2013) starring Jessie Eisenberg.

National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation (1989)

Fri, 25 Dec 2020 15:00:00 +0000

We put aside our petty contest to focus on what is really important; watching Chevy Chase star as a 1980's barometer for middle class success and obsess over a bonus check. Why does Clark want a pool in the frozen hellscape of a Chicago lake-effect winter? Who knows!
Happy holidays!

The Parallax View (1974)

Fri, 13 Nov 2020 17:36:57 +0000

Our new theme is Political Thrillers because Boruff has no sense of timing. The new theme is Political Thrillers because Boruff has no sense of timing. Hot and young Warren Beatty plays Jimmy Stewart in Rear Window if he ever got out of the chair in this political thriller based on a JFK conspiracy theory from the 70's. Things almost blow up, somethings do blow up, and an old sheriff learns that you can't bring a gun to a fishing rod fight. (Spoilers) The end of Boruff's DYNASTY is at hand?!

Fri, 30 Oct 2020 20:25:08 +0000

In this special one-off episode, Boruff won the Halloween round so he won the ability to choose any film in any genre to show the others. He chose a hard to categorize film about self discovery of a non-binary woman with the ability to smell people's feelings meeting another person just like her while she investigates a horrifying criminal video tape ring. There are troll babies and, oh boy, it gets dark!

The Wicker Man (1973)

Fri, 16 Oct 2020 14:00:00 +0000

Boruff's choice for best horror film from 1969-1980 is the timeless classic of Celtic horror, The Wicker Man. Carlsen finds a link to his favorite band, Neurosis. The fact that Boruff picked a Vashti Bunyan-style folk-horror-musical is not lost on Zach.

It's wonderful! But will it win?

Interview with Tim Talbott Screenwriter of The Stanford Prison Experiment

Fri, 28 Aug 2020 14:00:00 +0000

Tim Talbott was nice enough to sit down with us to discuss the writing process for The Stanford Prison Experiment (2015)

Tim Talbott's previous credits include South Park, Chicago Fire, and Shooter. He also co-wrote the Black list script, "Ball's Out"

Tim's IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0848003/

The Movie Trap get to see what of our thoughts were valid and what were conjecture about the production of this script and film.

The Stanford Prison Experiment directed by Kyle Patrick Alvarez
Written by Tim Talbott and Philip Zimbardo (based on the book "The Lucifer Effect")

The Stanford Prison Experiment (2015)

Fri, 21 Aug 2020 14:00:00 +0000

Boruff bends the rules a bit on "bad cops" to introduce the Movie Trap to a fact based depiction of Philip Zimbardo's Stanford Prison Experiment.
We debate approaches and tactics that the filmmakers might have used in the production. Zach wonders about the difficulty of working with a real life person telling a story that shows that person behaving poorly. Then we talk about cops and The Prisoner starring Patrick McGoohan.

Current winner Zach Powers picked our new challenge theme of "bad cops". His pick to start game is "Blindspotting" starring Daveed Diggs (Hamilton, Kimmy Schmidt) and Rafael Casal(HBO’s Def Poetry). The film directed by Carlos López Estrada and written by the two stars is a semi-autobiographical account of friends struggling with gentrification and complex racial divides in Oakland California. Ethan Embry shoots someone in the back in the first 10 minutes. Can you guess what his profession is?

Rear Window (1954)

Fri, 26 Jun 2020 02:31:39 +0000

Welcome to round one! Zach watching Rear Window inspired us to restart our 10+ year old podcast. Previously known as the Film Concussion, we are now called Movie Trap. The new name like the rest of this show, will be figured out as we go along.

IMPROV! Sometimes comedy.
