A movie analysis show looking at your favorite cult and genre films from across cinema history. Each week, Dustin, Arthur, and Dalton try to apply academic rigor and critical analysis to the films you wouldn’t talk about in a film studies class while having a few laughs along the way. It’s the conversations you have in the lobby of the multiplex with a little more room to breathe, and the occasional footnote. Stay tuned to the feed for bonus episodes on new releases.

We thought we were done knowing Jack, but this week, he seems to have reared his ugly head once again—kind of. This week, Dustin continues Killing His Darlings with the 1990 Touchstone Pictures release: Spaced Invaders. This homage to War of the Worlds, and probably Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, is a fascinating bomb from the era of high concept. We talk pastiche, homage, War of the Worlds, capitalism, Jack Nicholson, and much, much more as we bring Spaced Invaders to the analysis table. Join us now!
