"Happy 50th, Logan's Run! Still Running After All These Years..." with Yuri Lowenthal

Logan-5 didn't think he would make it past 30... well, now he's turning 50... or, at least the film he stars in is... so, join FM and actor Yuri Lowenthal (Spider-Man / Naruto), Screening Roomers, as they run to Sanctuary (or rather to the Screening Room) for a very special 50th Anniversary celebration of a 1970s sci-fi cult classic - 1976's LOGAN'S RUN, which had its debut 50-years ago on June 23rd, 1976. So, "run, runners!!!"... er... Screening Roomers!

"The Inspired, Underrated & Misguided Brilliance of 1983's Rock & Rule" with Adam Samuel Goldman

Screening Roomers, it's the companion episode to our Heavy Metal episode (episode 75)!!! And, just when you thought you couldn't possibly handle anymore animated Cheap Trick... we see your Cheap Trick... and raise you some animated Blondie, Iggy Pop, Earth/Wind & Fire and Lou Reed doing his best Mick Jagger impression in 1983's animated sci-fi cyberpunk rock musical cult classic - ROCK & RULE! So, join FM and writer/composer/producer - Adam Samuel Goldman (Flipside documentary) - as they explore Ohmtown, Nuke York and Club 666 to celebrate all the misguided brilliance (and madness) of this forgotten little rock'n'roll gem and Canadian curiosity! From the same animation studio that brought you the Care Bears Movie!

"HEEERE'S THE JOHNNY CARSON EPISODE!" with Mark Malkoff

Screening Roomers, HEEEERE'S JOHNNY... or actually, here's our Johnny Carson episode! As this week we take a behind the scenes look at one of the most influential figures in comedy and late night television... an innovator, pioneer and star maker who was responsible for breaking the careers of our generation's most popular stars... while also making stars out of some quirky regular folks, as well. But even though Johnny graced our TV sets every night for 30-years, he still remained a bit of a mystery to most. So, this morning we are joined in the Screening Room by writer/comedian/podcast host & author Mark Malkoff (The Carson Podcast) to talk about his new book Love Johnny Carson; as well as all things Johnny as we relive our favorite Tonight Show moments, guests and gags. Plus, we'll even discuss Johnny's one and only film - 1964's LOOKING FOR LOVE! (even if Johnny himself never wanted to)

Heavy Metal with Yuri Lowenthal

Hold onto your Loc-Nars, Screening Roomers! As this week actor Yuri Lowenthal (Naruto / Spider-man) flies into the the Screening Room on the back of a pterodactyl with the horniest of Cable Box Classic films this side of Neverwhere, the animated cult classic sci-fi fantasy musical - 1981's HEAVY METAL! A gonzo film that features contributions from some of the most innovative and influential artists and musicians of its era - Devo, Moebius, Black Sabbath, Cheap Trick and more. But this is far from Pixar, Screening Roomers! Heavy Metal - making the squares clutch pearls for 45-years and counting! [cue guitar sting and pterodactyl screech]

"[HOLY COW]! It's [FLIPPIN'] Repo Man, [MELON FARMERS]!!!" with Kevin Burke & Doc Wyatt

Screening Roomers, our resident Midnight Movie Mavens, the writing team of Kevin Burke and Doc Wyatt (Stranger Things: Tales from '85 & Ninjago), return to bring us another [flippin'] Midnight Movie in the morning! And this one is nearly indescribable [Melon Farmers]! A nihilistic punk rock sci-fi Neo-western cult classic comedy! And the film that made Harry Dean Stanton yell at its director - "Harry Dean Stanton only uses real baseball bats!" (tune in to find out what that is all about) So, grab your cans of "FOOD" and "DRINK" and join us as we celebrate one of our favorite Midnight Movies - 1984's REPO MAN!
