@vivaphysicalmedia.bsky.social @colonelmortimer.bsky.social explaining it's the TREND that's being exploited was a real penny-drop moment for me 🤯 and @whateverokay.bsky.social describing them as 'bonkers movies' with the 'volume turned up' on the sex and violence is perfect. Thanks for the recs!

MAILBAAAG only this week, and we talk the terms of exploitation flicks. youtu.be/oIKROM7Qu88?...

Welcome to @scarecrowvideo.bsky.social's Viva Physical Media, episode 107! The gang covers slasher DEATH VALLEY (1981), jungle-adventure movie DARK OF THE SUN (1968), and new release dog flick, THE FRIEND (2024)! Like, subscribe, and go pet a sad dog. youtu.be/zwctm1qEcjs?...

It's true, 106 is here!

Episode 105 brings you Emalie's recommendation of '70s thrill ride ROLLERCOASTER and Matt's blaxplo gem MELINDA. Then, we continue to mix up the names of the two humans in the next dog movie, the documentary about Danny and Ron's Rescue, LIFE IN THE DOGHOUSE.

Filming locations; extra booklets; our neverending journey to gather missing pieces; James Foley's angsty rom-dram RECKLESS; Penelope Spheeris' DUDES; the cyberspiritual opera that is WILD PALMS; RACHEL GETTING MARRIED and underseen Demme narratives in general! Viva 104! youtu.be/3xhJkFtjP5w?...

Cheers! In ep 103 Emalie revisits Edgar Wright's THE WORLD'S END. Matt asks you to unsee BC and talks about Walter Hill's great HICKEY AND BOGGS, and we all celebrate 4th of July (late) with an iconic ode to a classic tale (tail?), THE POOCH AND THE PAUPER from 2000. Viva! youtu.be/yTS8xO3KGK8?...

This week as we get back on schedule we offer you a mailbag full of "bad" (but you know what we mean) movie recs and an update about our gorgeously crumbly brick wall. 📽️https://youtu.be/Eo-fd_xIqgE?si=tgA7eM1QxKD98fxa

what do you want to see on our 100th episode? backflips? beer shotguns? on screen fist fights? 100 seconds of Rich doing his “rrrrapid recs” voice? let us know — we record it sooner than anyone realizes! email us [email protected] or comment here.

While they maybe missed the mark with calling our two-host show an "eccentric cast of regulars," a mention is a mention! Read the new IndieWire Scarecrow article and get back in that store before it crumbles again (note: will not be crumbling again). www.indiewire.com/features/int...

No girls allowed! In episode 97 we have former co-host and big LA hotshot Kev back in the chair with @colonelmortimer.bsky.social to talk about "Friday Night Lights" the television series, Suzuki's A TALE OF SADNESS AND SORROW, and a dog-doc TRUFFLE HUNTERS from 2020. youtu.be/UrfjRLzrkVs?...
