About The Gen X Movie Club

A podcast for Gen Xers. We revisit the films of our youth and ask, “Does the film still hold up?” We look forward to walking down memory lane with you. To learn more about this podcast, the hosts (who we were in the 80s and who we are now), and our philosophy and purpose behind this project, visit us a www.cranialgroove.com.

Episode 6: The Gen X Movie Club presents Red Dawn

Join us as we (re)visit this classic 80s World War III saga “Red Dawn.”  It’s an action packed film featuring a (very young) all star 80s cast.  Most notably, “Red Dawn” dares to explore the possibility of war on the domestic front.  What might a foreign invasion on US soil look like?  And how might we react?  It’s a war film with a conscience but does the message land the same today? Before listening to Episode 6, we encourage you to (re)watch “Red Dawn.”  Then tune in to hear our take on this epic war saga.  How does this film read in 2025?  Is the message the same?  Have the antagonists changed over time?  Are we still retelling the same narrative today?  We’re curious to see if you agree with our take on this classic, star studded 80s war film.

Episode 5: The Gen X Movie Club presents Night of the Comet

Join us we take a detour to a lesser known 80s film, “Night of the Comet.” In the spirit of October, we revisit this old HBO horror comedy favorite. What happens when a comet decimates the Earth leaving just a handful of survivors to navigate this new reality? This film focuses on two teenage sisters as they encounter zombies, shady scientists, shopping mall bandits, and a trucker.  This film is a fun ride that will exceed your low expectations.  We encourage you to (re)watch “Night of the Comet” and then listen to this episode as we revisit this low-budget horror comedy.  Does this film hold up?  Is it worth a rewatch? Do the “bad 80s movie” tropes increase or decrease its charm? We have our opinions. Does it line up with yours?

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
