Episode 95: Sweet Barry McKenzie Longthighs

Episode 95: Sweet Barry McKenzie Longthighs

I hope everyone enjoys the new edition to the show, Anna. Please, everyone, make her feel welcome!

This is a first for Outside the Cinema, in the entire history of the show, there has never been a mix up in the titles of the movies that we ware going to review for the week. But, as they say, there is a first time for everything. So, take a listen to the show and you’ll hear all the hilarity that ensues from two guys trying to see Edwige Fenech naked!

First up is the weekly top six list. In keeping with box office trends, we decide to compile a list of vampires that are better, in one way or another, than “Twilight” vampires.

Then, we move on to our reviews.

First up is Bill’s Fenech flick, Giovannona coscialunga, disonorata con onore, or Giovannona Longthighs.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0070111/

Next, we hear the review of the Fenech flick that Chris watched, The Sweet Pussycats, or

Alle Kätzchen naschen gern, from 1969.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0064005/

We follow those reviews with a movie that we both watched, Barry McKenzie Holds His Own, from 1974. This is the story of a man searching Europe for his kidnapped Aunt Edna. Little does Barry know that the weird Count Von Plasma in Transylvania is holding her!

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0071196/

After that, we go over a massive amount of feedback and then end the show!

Episode #93: Bettie Page… Watermelon Man

This week, we have a very special announcement about the show. Of course, this is followed by what will go down as the best sound clip EVER. Then we get into the meat of the show. This week, the top six list is “Top Six Cult Flicks for Chicks.” It’s an interesting list and hopefully will generate some discussion. We follow that with our two reviews.

First up is the 1970 comedy / drama “Watermelon Man.” This socially satirical film was directed by Melvin Van Peebles, written by Herman Raucher and stars Godfrey Cambridge in the lead role of Jeff Greber. The story revolves around Jeff, who is a white man (and a bigot.) One morning and with no cause, he wakes up a black man. Now Jeff will see first hand how difficult it is for a black man during the civil rights movement.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0066550/

Trivia fact – Taglines used for “Watermelon Man” that wouldn’t be acceptable today:

The Uppity Movie.

His white bread world just turned upside brown!

A very funny thing happened to Jeff Gerber. It won't happen to you, so you can laugh.


Our next feature is the docudrama Bettie Page: Dark Angel from 2004. Directed by Nico B. and written by Carly Adler and Nico B, this is the story of the last years of Bettie’s career with Irving Klaw as she tries to become a legitimate actress while posing for some of the most well known pictures ever.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0397039/

Trivia fact – There actually were home air conditioners in the 1950’s.

Now, on to the housekeeping.

Starting this Friday, November 13th, follow this link and vote every day!

Episode #90: Satan’s Wheatstraw

As most of you know, we are at the Rock and Shock convention this weekend. However, that won’t stop us from reviewing more movies for you! This week, we have the Rudy Ray Moore flick, “Petey Wheatstraw – The Devil’s Son-In-Law” and Satan’s Children. Along with a rather unexpected (and unprecedented) caller into the show, we will discuss our top six “Creepiest Places.”
First up is the Cliff Roquemore written and directed “Petey Wheatstraw” from 1977. This is a story about revenge, pacts with the devil, sweaty fat men, graveyards, the Devil’s pimp came, and much much more. Starring Rudy Ray Moore as Petey Wheatstraw and G. Tito Shaw as Lucipher, this is one messed up blaxploitation picture!

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078078/
Next up we have the “horror” story of “Satan’s Children.” Directed by Joe Wiezycki, this is the tale of Bobby Douglas and what happen when he falls in with the wrong crowd – multiple times. Is it about devil worship? Maybe. Is it about the dangers of pot? Maybe. Is it about what happens if you have a homely and horny stepsister that keep trying to get all up in your junk while berating you at the same time? Quite possibly. Is it about the fact that this movie tries to tell people that the devil hates gay people and liars too? Sure. I guess. This movie made no sense, except for the fact that the leader of the cult is super organized.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0128451/

Episode #84: After Alabama’s Midnight Ghost

This week on Outside the Cinema, the boys tackle two very different films. Alabama’s Ghost and After Midnight, but first, they discuss their picks for “Top Six Badass Films.”

That should generate some feedback!


The first review of the show is Alabama’s Ghost. Released in 1973, this is the story of… well… there’s this guy, Alabama. He finds the belongings of a great magician named Carter. He uses the things to launch his music/magic career. Unfortunately for the plot, there are vampires, hippies, a weird Ed Gien kind of car, a robot and female Nazi scientists. You kind of have to see it to believe it.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068187/


The second review is for the 1989 horror anthology “After Midnight.” The best thing that this has going for it is a whole bunch of “Hey, I know them!” moments. The plot revolves around a “Psychology of Horror” class run by a complete douche. Because of a bad choice by the teacher, he is forced to conduct the class according to the rules. However, those that are really interested in true fear are invited to his house to try and scare each other with true stories.

This week on OTC LIVE! We have as our special guests, Paul Solet and Adam Green, the writer/director and producer from “Grace” That’s this Tuesday at 8:00 e.s.t. September 8th.

Episode 81: The Last Withnail

What’s the old saying? “Ask and you shall receive.” Maybe I’m thinking of “Be careful what you wish for.” It can go either way this week as you will hear.

First up is our top six list of underused and / or underappreciated action stars.

Then we get into our first review, 1987’s “Withnail and I.” The sociopath drunk junkie, Withnail (Richard E. Grant) and his equally unemployed actor friend I, (Marwood played by Paul McGann) need to get out of their squalid apartment and into better surroundings. They accidentally end up on holiday in the English countryside where they can’t seem to adjust. Hunted (?) by a poacher, stalked by a homosexual “Uncle” (Richard Griffiths) and facing down randy bulls are but a few of the problems facing the pair. A true cult film, it is written and directed by Bruce Robinson.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094336/

Next up is the 1982 flick, “The Last Horror Film.” Directed by David Winters and starring Caroline Munro and Joe Spinell, “The Last Horror Film” tells the story of one man’s quest to put his favorite actress in his movie. Or does it? The back-story may actually be more interesting than the plot of the film.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0087592/

Episode 80: The Detroit Turn On!

We have hit the 80’s!!

Do you remember the 80s? Breakdancing, New Wave, mullets and more importantly, for your intrepid hosts, movies. Nothing encapsulated the teen angst and the hardships of relationships quite like a John Hughes movie. Bill and Chris take some time away from all of their goofball antics to reflect back on how John Hughes affected their lives. Of course, this is done in the form of a top six list.

Mercifully, just before Chris gets all misty, they delve into their first review; Troma’s teen sex romp comedy, “The First Turn-On!” from 1983. Written by Georgia Harrell and Michael Herz, this flick is directed by none other than Michael Herz Lloyd Kaufman. In an anthology style of storytelling, we get to see how each of the main characters lost their virginity.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0085547/

Then, we move on to 1973’s Detroit 9000. Directed by Arthur Marks from a script by Orville H. Hampton, Detroit 9000 shines a light on the political and social climate, framed around fundraiser for an African American’s Gubernatorial campaign.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0069966/


After the reviews, we catch up on two weeks of feedback! Thanks for writing in everyone!
