Episode 170: From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)

maverickEpisode 170: This episode begins our listener-suggested pairing of films by independent director Robert Rodriguez, with the film that marked Quentin Taratino's first paid screenwriting job, 1996's heist-turned-horror, "From Dusk Till Dawn!" Starring George Clooney, Tarantino, Harvey Keitel, Juliette Lewis, Salma Hayek, Cheech Marin, Danny Trejo, Tom Savini, Fred Williamson, and Michael Parks, this film follows the infamous Gecko brothers as they flee the United States into Mexico to meet up with their latest employer and turn over all but their percentage of ill-gotten gains. Unfortunately for them, their employer picked a true den of iniquity for their meeting place. Now if they can just survive the night and still be able to conduct business when the sun comes up...

Episode 169A & 169B: Oldboy (2013)

maverickEpisode 169A: In the 2nd of our pairing of "Vengeance Films," we move ahead to a date out of our normal time-period and look at the American version of the South Korean neo-noir action thriller "Oldboy" from 2013. Directed by powerhouse Spike Lee and starring Josh Brolin and Elizabeth Olsen, this film follows the life of alcoholic salesman Joe Doucett who, after blowing a big deal for his firm, gets fired. As if that isn't bad enough, he's then kidnapped and imprisoned in what, at first, appears to be a hotel room. It turns out it's a gilded cage, and that's just the beginning of the story! Who's doing this to him, and why, is something he'll try to find out... if he can escape! Also starring Sharlto Copley, Samuel L. Jackson, Michael Imperioli, Pom Klementieff, Lance Reddick, and a very early appearance by Remi Malek! Plus, the trio reveal the latest listener suggested pairing that they'll be doing in the next set of reviews! NOTE: This is a spoiler-free review, so if you haven't seen the movie, it's safe to listen to. A second spoiler-filled episode, which details the twist ending to this macabre tale, follows this one.

Episode 168A & 168B: Angel Heart (1987)

maverickEpisode 168A: For the first of our "Vengeance Films" pairing, it's 1987's neo-noir/supernatural thriller "Angel Heart." Directed by veteran director Alan Parker, this film follows Harry Angel (Mickey Rourke) who is hired by Louis Cyphre (Robert De Niro) to find a missing crooner from WWII. His attempt to track down Johnny Favorite first sends him all over New York City, and then to New Orleans, Louisiana, where intolerance, voodoo, and black magic spin his investigation off into nightmarish situations. The film also stars Charlotte Rampling and Lisa Bonet (in her first film role, and the role that got her "excused" from the Cosby Show). NOTE: This is a spoiler-free review, so if you haven't seen the movie, it's safe to listen to. A second spoiler-filled episode, which details the twist ending to this macabre tale, follows this one.

Episode 167: The Golden Child (1986)

maverickEpisode 167: Recorded LIVE at Michigan ComicCon in Detroit, Michigan! Supernatural action comedy number two comes to us from just six months after Big Trouble in Little China, and was actually offered to Big Trouble director John Carpenter, but he turned it down to make his film. Instead, they turned to director Michael Ritchie (who would go on to direct "Fletch") to helm Murphy's fifth leading role in "The Golden Child!" Murphy plays Chandler Jarrell, a finder of lost children, who is approached by Kee Nang (Charlotte Lewis in her first film role) who asks his help in finding a very special lost child. As the hunt proceeds, things get stranger, including a brush with the sinister Sardo Numspa (Charles Dance), a supernatural entity who captures the golden child, forcing a direct confrontation between himself and Jarrell. This film also features three actors who were also in Big Trouble: Victor Wong, James Hong, and Peter Kwong. Plus, the trio reveal what two films with truly disturbing endings they're going to be reviewing next!
