Episode 116 of War Machine vs. War Horse: Focus (Matchstick Men vs. The Brothers Bloom)

On this episode we attempt to con you into listening to our triple feature of con man movies, inspired by the new release FOCUS. Based on the premise of that film we look at how love blinds con men, like it blinded Will Smith by backing his son's acting career in AFTER EARTH. The double feature we have selected for this theme includes Ridley Scott's MATCHSTICK MEN and Rian Johnson's THE BROTHERS BLOOM. Guest: Peter from Hydrate Level Four and the Original Remake podcast joins us to work on a horror screenplay starring Bruce McGill.

Ep. 139 of War Machine vs. War Horse: What We Do In The Shadows (Vampire's Kiss vs. Dark Shadows)

On this episode we look at the comical life of vampires on film, a genre that doesn't get much play in Hollywood, and many would say rightfully so. However no one can deny that it is a place for notorious overacts such as Nicolas Cage and Johnny Depp to let their freak flags fly in VAMPIRE'S KISS and DARK SHADOWS. This battle of fanged actors over who can ham it up the most is inspired by the new video release of WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS.
