Have you ever seen a movie so bad that you decide you had to show all your friends and loved ones so they can experience the same negative experience that you have suffered through. Comedians JP Fournier and Shawn Gramiak have taken sharing cinematic nasties to a whole new level. Each week they and their guest choose a movie for the other to watch, exploring the dark, scary, confusing, and sometimes pathetic world of bad movies. They are The Movie Jerks.
With our first episode of 2021, The Movie Jerks chat with the multitalented Tristan Risk ("American Mary", "The Editor" and "Aliens Ate My Homework") http://www.caravanofcuriosities.com about her upcoming projects, her past films, her connections in the world of body modifications and so much more. Check out her short film "Parlour Tricks" here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDcHm_ezslM.
In this episode, we are united again with Danny Fournier (Oddballproductions.ca) in our yearly Christmas episode. This time we are tackling the subject of Santa Claus being portrayed as a hero/superhero in films. We start off with this year's newest Santa Claus flick "Fatman" with Mel Gibson, then breakdown the Santa films where Santa literally saves the day.
For this year's Hallmark Christmas movie review we invited James Ross on the show, but not informing him he would be watching a Hallmark Christmas film. HIs enthusiasm when finding out was certainly higher than our shared opinion of the film. We watched "Double Holliday" and here's the episode to prove it.
David Rae has been the unluckiest guest when it comes to movie picks. Will this change if he's the one that picks the film for us? Is it a coincidence that he picked VelociPastor on our 420 episode? Can he redeem himself from his last 7 appearances? Tune in to find out?
We catch up Rob Pue (@RobPue_) during his Canadian stand-up tour. Socially distant together we watch the ambitious independent action, "Death Grip" featuring "The Stunt People".
On episode 417, we bring back one of our horror experts, Kevin Alexander, to look into movies about mind control. We watch "Possessor" and "The Fury"
