  • Season 3 - Episode 3 - The Vampire Motorcycle is Dead Again

    Season 3 - Episode 3 - The Vampire Motorcycle is Dead Again
    2026/09/15
    Season 3 continues to trundle along with a consistent one episode a month sort of schedule and much like episode 1, this is another After Movie DRIVER episode as our returning co-host, Jim Wallace and myself are back driving down to The Archive and recapping the movies we watched at the weekend.

    In this episode 3 the focus mainly stays on 90s Hitchcockian Noir, Dead Again - as our hosts struggle to answer the question "why Kenneth Branagh?" (which turns out to be exceptionally timely with the debut of his new film, Mayday last week) AND we discuss why growing up in 80s/early 90s Britain was just so wonderfully grim and pleasantly half arsed - in a way we pine for nostalgically - when the subject turns to low budget, horror comedy, I Bought a Vampire Motorcycle and its relation to middling late 80s television.

    What happens when Brits go to Hollywood and what happens when they don't.
    Enjoy!

  • Season 3 - Episode 2 - Insanitarium - "Different Wiring" and the Jeff Buhler Conundrum

    Season 3 - Episode 2 - Insanitarium - "Different Wiring" and the Jeff Buhler Conundrum
    2026/08/18
    Well for Episode 2 of Season 3 a beautiful thing happened - we are back in a Diner! No sooner did we say that Season 3 was going to be The After Movie Driver, we're back in the land of ham, egg and chips and Jim's weird omlettes! Huzzah!

    On this, very special, Diner based episode, we're talking 2008's Insanitarium an odd action horror set inside a mental health facility run by a mad as balls, Peter Stormare who has been injecting his patients with nanobot infused cannibal juice. Honestly, that's an actual thing in this picture.

    The cast also includes Jesse Metcalfe, Kiele Sanchez, Kevin Sussman, Olivia Munn, Carla Gallo & Armin Shimerman

    We go deep on the mind that made this, Jeff Buhler, with all sorts of hypothesising, and talk indie horror and the issues I sometimes have with it.

  • Season 3 - Episode 1 - Freejack and Dick Tracy

    Season 3 - Episode 1 - Freejack and Dick Tracy
    2026/07/25
    Here it is, an all new chapter for The After Movie Diner (or is that The After Movie Driver?!) and it's starting on the 15th Anniversary of when we began as a podcast.

    We've died many times, we've changed formats and we've been around the block but somehow, by some miracle, we're still here.

    Here it is - Season 3! - Jim is back as a regular co-host and the shows are going to have a little of that flavour of when we would just sit down in a diner and talk movies, only this time we're driving?! and there's not really any editing! We always did the podcast mainly for us but now this is really just us - unedited, old friends, grumpy, chatting away, live, talking movies.

    For the first episode back, our 15th Anniversary and for the first episode of Season Three we're talking big Hollywood swings and misses - Freejack and Dick Tracy. Enjoy!

    Season 2 - Ep 22 - Diablo, A Working Man and Black Creek - a new action showdown!
    2025/08/01
    New Action Showdown!

    Strap in for fists, fury, and a whole lotta fun as Matt Poirier of Direct to Video Connoisseur and the DTVC Podcast returns to The After Movie Diner for a brand-new Action Showdown!

    This round, host Jon Cross and Matt go toe-to-toe with:
    🔥 Diablo – Scott Adkins brings the pain in this slick, high-octane, beautifully shot, action flick.
    👊 A Working Man – Jason Statham trades quips, kicks and confused looks with goons a plenty in this gritty, blue-collar beatdown.
    💥 Black Creek – Cynthia Rothrock’s long-awaited passion project, her martial arts, revenge heavy, western, finally lands, and it's got fights, heart, and an ayahuasca trip with a donkey!

    From VOD sleepers to modern action gems, we break it all down with deep dives, detours, and plenty of love for the genre.

  • Season 2 - Ep 21 - In the Paré Way - No Place to Hide and Into The Sun

    Season 2 - Ep 21 - In the Paré Way - No Place to Hide and Into The Sun
    2025/04/26
    The Paré Parade marches on!

    This week on The After Movie Diner, we hop Into The Sun — the movie that dares to ask, "What if Top Gun crashed headfirst into The Hard Way... and Michael Paré and Anthony Michael Hall were at the controls?"

    Then for the VHS Pick we slip on our Cannon Films shades and get sketchy with No Place to Hide, where Kris Kristofferson protects a young Drew Barrymore while Martin Landau lurks menacingly (and magnificently) in the background.

    Special guest Gary Hill from the Cinema Beef Podcast joins us for the ride — buckle up, it’s gonna get weird!

  • Season 2 - Ep 20 - Tough Guys Don't Dance and Hologram Man

    Season 2 - Ep 20 - Tough Guys Don't Dance and Hologram Man
    2025/02/07
    Matt Poirier from the Direct to Video Connoisseur is back again and we are back in the world of The Wings.... Wings Hauser that is!

    We dip into the bizarro time when Cannon Films gave Norman Mailer money to make a movie out of his jokey, pulp, novella, ghost story, that he only wrote because his publisher's contract required one more book from him. Yes, that's right, saddle up your Ryan O'Neils and dust off your Isabella Rosselinis and get ready to get seriously weird with Penn Jillette, as head off to the Twin Peaksian world of Tough Guys Don't Dance.

    Then we are blowing shit up, shooting lots of guns and dressing up in our own, incredibly life-like, rubber skin as we take a futuristic ride to PM Entertainment Town and visit with The Hologram Man - because the Hologram Man can and he mixes it with love and makes the world taste good.

  • Season 2 - Ep 19 - Troll & Delta Heat

    Season 2 - Ep 19 - Troll & Delta Heat
    2025/01/14
    Matt Poirier from the Direct to Video Connoisseur joins us to talk about the bizarre Michael Moriarty, Sonny Bono and Julia Louis-Dreyfus starring and John Carl Beuchler directed movie, Troll - listen to hear if Moriarty's wildly insane and embarrassing dancing beats that of Crispin Glover in Friday the 13th Pt. 4.

    Then we get sweaty and swampy down south and see how many shitty silk shirts you have to go through to get taken semi-seriously as an "L.A. Cop" on the streets of Louisiana, when really you look like a low level pimp or hustler from the prisons of Cuba, as Anthony Edwards is ridiculously miscast alongside the always worth the price of admission, Lance Henriksen in the VHS pick - Delta Heat
