It's guilty until proven innocent on our latest episode, as we plead our cases in a couple of courtrooms. We offer a flimsy defense for two films where family defend their own in a court of law with My Cousin Vinny and Conviction, but in true War Machine vs. War Horse fashion, one will fry. First though a little pre-trial hearing with the new release The Judge. GUEST: Peter from Hydrate Level Four and The Flash Pod joins us to talk Academy Award conspiracy theories and where to record for the best podcasting acoustics.

A behind-the-scenes look at the making of the Blair Witch Project and its impact on the future of movies - from sparking a found footage genre boom to its innovative use of Internet marketing.

On this episode we talk about girls... who are gone. And if you think that was clever, in true War Machine vs. War Horse fashion we cleverly found two other films about women gone missing, simply by searching for two films that both have the word "vanish" in the title. Thankfully for our listeners, this episode goes a little more in depth than that as this may be the best triple feature we have ever presented on our podcast. This being our 50th episode and all, we thought we'd treat ourselves and went with 1938's THE LADY VANISHES & 1988's THE VANISHING, followed by David Fincher's much anticipated GONE GIRL.

2013 Directed by Jim Mickle Starring Bill Sage, Ambyr Childers and Julia Garner “We Are What We Are” is such an incredibly deliberate, unhurried film you might forget that you are watching a horror film. This is a good thing. Director Jim Mackle’s film is in no hurry, clearly laying out that trouble lies ahead but we will take our sweet time getting there. The film is both beautiful and unnerving at the same time. I was reminded of the painting American Gothic, it’s somehow visually alluring while possessing qualities that are disturbing. The Parker family, well, something just isn’t right about them. It’s hard to immediately pinpoint but something is clearly wrong. They live in a rural community that feels out of step with modern society. The film opens with Emma (the mother of the family) walking to butchers market/convince store that would have felt perfectly at home in the 1890’s. After leaving the store she collapses and dies, setting into motion a cha

Dan Harmon (the creator of Community) hosts a weekly podcast at Nerdmelt Comics in Los Angeles.  Harmontown is ostensibly about Dan Harmon taking his podcast on tour after he was fired from Community but the real story is that of the shows dungeon master Spencer. He is simultaneously the voice of the audience and the voice from the stage. A misfit who wanted nothing more than to play D&D with one of his heroes. Harmon is one of the most honest performers I've seen. His material seems to come from a place of both self hatred and adulation, an insecure ego maniac who is self aware enough to realize his greatest struggle is to come to terms with the fact that he got everything he wanted. He is a brilliant writer who is known for his anger and public outbursts but if you look at the people he surrounds himself with and the shows he has created you get a much fuller picture of the man.  A sensitive man whose feels the pain of the world around him while trying to find a place

You read that correctly Pulp Fiction is 20. Wow It's hard to believe that someone who was born the day Pulp Fiction was released is old enough to join the military and vote. Yup feeling old. Fuck it, lets watch some deleted scenes.

2014 Directed By Bobcat Goldthwait  Bobcat Goldthwait has done something truly remarkable with his latest directorial effort. He has made a found footage horror film that could not have been made better if it were told as a conventional narrative feature. Most found footage films pull me out because I can't quite give in to the fact that the characters on screen would still be filming while all hell is breaking loose around them.   Willow Creek centers on Jim and Kelly, a couple who are traveling to northern California making a documentary about Bigfoot. The first half of the film shows our characters interviewing the residents of Willow Creek. The interviews focus on Bigfoot sightings and the Patterson-Gimlin film that captured the only known footage of the fabled creature. The only actors in the first half the film are our two leads, the rest of the cast is made up by real people who are telling their first hand accounts of living in the Area 5
