The Late Night Picture Show

It's our very first full-length commentary track! This time we're expanding on our thoughts of 2018's shocker Hereditary (movie starts at about 2:30). And if you like these and wanna hear us do more tracks of this kind, please send us suggestions on our Facebook! "Hail Paimon!"

Well, it's finally here: the movie we've been teasing to talk about since the beginning. We're kicking the new year (and Season 2) with Ari Aster's feature film debut Hereditary, from 2018. Paired with our full-length commentary track (!), it's a deep dive into the most frightening and talked-about movie of the decade. We discuss the scariest moments, the detailed connections, THAT SCENE, and what my therapist thought about it! Heads will roll...

As the song says: "It's beginning to look a lot like...BULLSHIT..." Well, the holiday season just keeps rolling along! Mick's pick of the week is the arguably overrated sequel to Home Alone. It's got all the holiday spices: near-fatal injuries, capitalist propaganda, a horde of pigeons, an awkward Trump cameo, and God's-gift to acting Tim Curry...

Happy Christmas, everyone! Well, it's that time of year again, folks. We'll see if Mick's heart really is 2 sizes too small, after all. Ed's pick of the week is 1996's "Jingle All The Way", a fun family romp about consumerism and the holidays, starring everyone's Average Joe: Arnold Schwarzenegger. This Christmas "classic" has the whole package: Turbo-Man, baby Anakin, holiday roofies, reindeer getting soused, and a psychotic Sinbad...

Holy Shit, you guys! WE SAW A MOVIE, like, in a theater!! And it was pretty rad. We sat down with our buddy Gabriel to discuss the 1st movie any of us have seen in theaters in what feels like forever: "Tenet", the latest feature from human Rubik's cube Christopher Nolan. It was a fun-filled, tangent-riddled time in the studio, as it should be. Get ready for a triple-shot of TLNPS, straight up....

Our ongoing recap of HBO's Lovecraft Country, 2 episodes for the price of one!

Our continuing recap of HBO's Lovecraft Country! plus a little talk about The Batman, starring ja boi Robbie Patts...

It's our anniversary, y'all! Mick and Ed get to ring in one glorious year of The Late Night Picture Show going live. Thanks to all of our lovely listeners out there in the dark, still watching "the flickers." We have a very special show for you; Mick and Ed sit down and swap their Top 5 Favorite Movies of ALL TIME! (for now). Enjoy!

Introducing our first ever TV show recap series! We're covering the phenomenal new HBO series "Lovecraft Country" and kicking things off with our thoughts on the first episode!

It's here: the ultimate movie about opening public spaces before you should... Steven Spielberg's thriller-masterpiece Jaws! Ed and Mick talk about general shark news, the ecological impact of this classic film, its unexpected current relevance, and those wackier moments... happy summer!

Rama-lama-ding-dong! Ed and Mick ring in "those summer nights" with our very first musical! We have the amazing Serena in the studio, talking about the 1978 teen-sex romp, "Grease." So rev your engines and iron your poodle skirts, cuz shit's gonna get wild!

"Come children, and listen. For the story I tell holds a lesson..." Ed & Mick venture into the deepest wood, and they find is Oz Perkins' chilling 3rd feature. It's got feminist themes, dodgy accents, and the poor-man's Idris Elba...

"It's just a color. But it burns..." Ed and Mick explore the fantastical insanity that is Richard Stanley's gonzo adaptation of an H.P. Lovecraft classic. It's got peak-crazy Nicolas Cage, technicolor terrors, and mutated alpacas...

The boys welcome our good friend Summer into the studio to discuss "Jennifer's Body," the cult classic from 2009 starring Megan Fox and Amanda Seyfried. This movie has everything: girl-on-demon makeout sessions, emo-rocker Adam Brody, snappy Diablo Cody dialogue, and uber-sexist marketing...
 

This week, the guys chat about "Doctor Sleep," the movie that hardly anybody saw last year, and it's a crying shame. The long-awaited sequel to The Shining is a Kubrickian, spooky but affectionate swan-song to all things Overlook. We discuss Mike Flanagan's legacy as a Master of Horror, the staying power of Stephen King, and unfortunate Marlon Brando anecdotes...

Ed and Mick discuss the latest Adam Sandler joint, Uncut Gems; a cinematic argument of the need for Adderall. We plunge into the anxiety-inducing kaleidoscope of Sandler's balls-to-the-wall performance, frenetic editing, Jewish stereotypes(?), and butt tattoos...

Ed and Mick welcome Cassie Starr into the studio to discuss Tim Burton's fantasy opus Edward Scissorhands from 1990. We dive deep into the bizarre production, its lead star's tumultuous history, cult classic status, and the movie's erotic implications...

Ed and Mick have reached the maze...and lived to tell about it. Come on you guys, it's The Shining! It's arguably the most famous horror movie of all time; you all know what you're in for. It's probably the best (or worst) movie to watch while you're stuck at home, waiting out the apocalypse. So, "Come play with us, Danny..."

Thank you all for being such wonderful fans & friends of the show! This is just a quick update about where we've been, and where we're going now...

Aaaand heeerre weeee...go. Ed & Mick discuss one of the most talked-about and controversial films of the year: Todd Phillips' Joker, starring Joaquin Phoenix as the title villain. Is it as incendiary as everyone says? Inquire within: we talk about the character's history, some eyebrow-raising twists, more endings than a Peter Jackson film, and a cranky Jared Leto...

Ed and Mick discuss the latest Stephen King adaptation "It: Chapter Two". In this corner: pitch-perfect casting, character development, and a truly frightening Pennywise performance! And this corner: embarrassing special effects, a repetitive script, and general goofiness! What will prevail? (review starts around 9 mins)

This week, Ed & Mick sit down with super-fan Eric to discuss Steven Spielberg's sci-fi/thriller classic, the original Jurassic Park (1993). We cover 90's kid nostalgia, shirtless Jeff Goldblum, and dino-clackers. Chaos ensues...

On our very first Guest Episode, we sat down with our pal Mitch to discuss John Carpenter's action-comedy cult classic "Big Trouble in Little China" from 1986. This movie has everything: Chinese mythology, badass babes, mullets, monsters, and interesting footwear...

This week, we watched "Ready Or Not", the latest horror/thriller/black comedy with a hint of biting satire. Is this a gory blast in the tradition of "The Evil Dead", or does it leave something to be desired? (review starts at about 18 mins, spoilers after 44 mins.)

This week, Ed and Mick break down the summer of 2019 in film so far, before touching upon the upcoming movies in the fall. Finally, we review Ari Aster's mesmerizing new horror film, Midsommar (starts around 35 mins).
