  • 006 - CONVOY (Sam Peckinpah, 1978)
    2025/07/03

    Trucker “Rubber Duck” (Kris Kristofferson) runs afoul of Arizona Sheriff Lyle Wallace (Ernest Borgnine) after Wallace extorts money from Duck and his friends. So begins the latest in a series of conflicts between Rubber Duck and Wallace, including the sherriff trying to detain his friend Spider Mike (Franklyn Ajaye), with Wallace in hot pursuit as Duck and company hightail it for the New Mexico border to avoid getting arrested. Various friends and admirers join Rubber Duck’s escape and form a convoy of support. The convoy takes on a larger meaning for all kinds of working class gripes with the state of things in the U.S. of A. back in 1978. The film also features Ali MacGraw sporting an amusing haircut, Seymour Cassel gleefully playing a crooked governor and a host of wonderful character actors.

    Ride along with Bill and Colin as they travel cross-country in an attempt to make some sense of a messy and sometimes fun film that was part of the 1970s American Citizens Band Radio craze, originated from a hit country song of the same name and wound up becoming Peckinpah’s most profitable movie ever.

  • 003 - DELLAMORTE DELLAMORE / CEMETERY MAN (Michele Soavi, 1994)
    2025/06/12

    DELLAMORTE DELLAMORE (aka CEMETERY MAN) relates the story of melancholy and discontented Francesco Dellamorte (Rupert Everett), who watches over a cemetery in a small European town where the dead won’t stay buried. He takes it upon himself to put “returners” back into their graves. One day he stumbles upon the love of his life (Anna Falchi) burying her husband. When said husband returns from the dead and kills her, Francesco begins a series of relationships with various iterations of her and a dialogue with death that drives him to kill the living. In what is sure to go down as one of our more elliptical episodes, Bill and Colin explore this questionably-adapted and sensually-visualized horror/dark comedy film that wrestles with ideas of love, death and perhaps the greatest challenge of all…life.

  • 001 - THE WORLD'S GREATEST SINNER (Timothy Carey, 1962)
    2025/05/29

    Welcome to our first episode! Timothy Carey was a beloved character actor and all-around eccentric who tore his way through a number of television shows and films including various from the likes of auteurs Stanley Kubrick and John Cassavetes. Yet Carey had an interest in making his own films as well, and he wrote, directed and starred in this uniquely bizarre and, in many ways, effective take on the perils of powerlust and the cult of personality. We're delighted to explore it with you...
