Blood and Black Rum Podcast - A Cult Film / Horror Podcast

Ah, the sounds of Burt Bacharach... the camaraderie of two gentlemen with nothing between them besides wide open plains... the handsome face of Robert Redford. How can you beat a movie like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid? Well, you can't, and we talk about all the ways this Paul Newman/Redford vehicle just simply works as a marker in Americana. We're also drinking Tree House Brewing's 10th Canniversary double IPA!

HEART EYES

1 Recommendations

We may be a little late for Valentine's Day, but that didn't stop this couple from heading to the theater to check out the new holiday-themed slasher film from Josh Ruben. We enjoyed Heart Eyes well enough, but we also talk criticism of some of the ways this film fails to pair rom-com and slasher elements together succinctly. We'e also drinking Paradox x Stewart's Mountain Brew beer!

THE FRENCH CONNECTION

Continuing our tribute to late actors, we tackle the excellent Gene Hackman crime thriller The French Connection directed by William Friedkin. Here we take a look at the composition of the film and how its edits and multiple chase sequences add to the film's swift feeling. We also talk about Poughkeepsie, police racism, rooting for Charnier the villain, and a lot more. We're drinking Sloop Brewing Company's collaboration with Marist college, the Red Fox IPA.
