SmashFilm - Sicario
SmashFilm
We've actually got a good movie this week as we talk about Denis Villenueve's 2015 sleeper hit: SICARIO. Starring Emily Blunt, Benicio Del Toro, Josh Brolin, and Daniel Kaluuya, it's a thrilling, creepy, action-packed adventure on both sides of the border as a ambiguously-placed government agent and his mysterious associate take FBI Agent Kate Macer WAY over her head on a mission to cause some chaos in the Juarez drug cartels. Emily Blunt delivers and Oscar-Nominated performance, and Benicio Del Toro is amazing in this 2015 sleeper-hit!

SmashFilm - MARS ATTACKS!
SmashFilm
We've got a weird one for you this week, as we're covering Tim Burton's 1996 MARS ATTACKS! Starring Jack Nicholson (twice!), Glenn Close, Natalie Portman, Michael J Fox, Sarah Jessica Parker, Jack Black, Annette Benning and many more, this cast has waaaay too many huge names for such a ridiculous movie. BUT HEY LET'S DO IT! Martians attack earth with superior ships, superior weapons, and hilarious speedos while hapless humans (sometimes) try to defend their planet. A truly entertaining watch and we've got a great episode on it.

SmashFilm - SE7EN
SmashFilm
This week we're talking David Fincher's classic film SE7EN starring Brad Pitt, Morgan Freeman, Kevin Spacey, and not nearly enough Gwyneth Paltrow! Morgan Freeman is retiring, but before he can hand over the reigns to hotshot detective Brad Pitt, he has to help hunt down religiously obsessed serial killer Kevin Spacey! Everyone is having a rough week in this one, but Fincher delivers a great movie in the gritty way only Fincher can.

SmashFilm - Halloween
SmashFilm
We've got a special Halloween episode, talking John Carpenter's classic HALLOWEEN! Michael Myers goes on a rampage, killing several terrible teenagers and utterly failing to get Jamie Lee Curtis in this genre-inspiring horror film! A small-budget, independent film, Carpenter created a film that would inspire an entire genre of slasher and teen-slaughtering films for decades to come. Join us as we explore the filmmaking, as well as important questions like "Who was Annie's weed dealer?" and "Why are all of Laurie's friends awful?" Check out the episode, and HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
