JAWS: A QUINT-ESSENTIAL THRILLER

DIRECTOR DANIEL BOGRAN/BEST MEDICINE

Writer/director Daniel Bogran has just made his feature debut The Killing Moon, a smart, elegant thriller shot in Colorado. Roger Crow sat down for a chat with him this week, and they discussed the movie itself and the explosion of YouTubers making their feature debut. And as Best Medicine finally made its UK debut, one hardcore fan of the original UK series Doc Martin assesses whether the US version passes muster. Plus, a handful of songs written by your host and interpreted by AI. Echo and the Bunnymen’s The Killing Moon available from all good gramophone shops. Doc Marrtin clip c/o ITV Best Medicine clip c/o Fox and check out Tony and Betsy Greenway’s Bonding with Dad on YouTube. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

BACKROOMS/THE RAZOR’S EDGE/CAPE FEAR ‘26

As a couple of YouTubers revolutionise Hollywood, Roger Crow looks at the phenomenon of BACKROOMS and OBSESSION. He also finally catches up with Bill Murray’s soul-searching 1984 epic THE RAZOR’S EDGE, and assesses episode one of the TV version of CAPE FEAR. Which reminds me. That Spanish actor was in our pub last night causing issues. “Javier Bardem?” Yes, for a week at least. Plus, a couple of original songs each centring on a couple of MCU icons.

THE NOSTALGIAHHH EP

THE THING vs ALIEN vs PREDATOR vs LECTER at the OVERLOOK HOTEL

Bookended by a couple of songs written by Roger Crow, this contentious pod wasn’t written by your host. And host is the operative term when dealing with a subject involving four of horror/fantasy cinema’s greatest icons at one of its greatest hostelries. Inspired by the picture you see in the thumbnail, generated by AI, the whole pod is also AI generated, but no less interesting. So what happens if you take The Thing, Alien, Predator and Hannibal Lecter and have them face off in The Shining’s Overlook hotel? ‘Smackdown at the Overlook Hotel’’ and ‘I Knead the Dough’ written by Roger Crow. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
