Halloweeboot: Robert's Terrible Idea
Tinseltown - The Holiday Movie Podcast
Amanda and I take a look at Rob Zombie's misbegotten Halloween remake, a movie which played to all his strengths, but was still pretty awful, as the core idea was still bad, and also a lot of his strengths just shouldn't be in a Halloween movie. Hell of a cast, though!

Halloweeboot - We're Very Concerned
Tinseltown - The Holiday Movie Podcast
While reviewing the awkwardly titled "Halloween H20: 20 Years Later", Brian and Maggie devolve into insanity. Very quickly. NOTE : I have not fully checked this episode yet because it's very long and I'm very busy. If there are any errors, I'll catch them this weekend and upload a fixed version.

Halloweeboot: Lumpy Just Wants to Dance!
Tinseltown - The Holiday Movie Podcast
The Count and TLo take a look at "Halloween". Not that one. No, not that one. This is the third Halloween that's the eleventh movie, the fourth reboot, and the third Halloween 2. How hard is that to keep track of?

Halloweeboot: America's Greatest Hobo Actor
Tinseltown - The Holiday Movie Podcast
The Pumpkin Patch returns with Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers, in which the producers tried to make this a proper perpetual series without Carpenter or Curtis, but with Pleasance! You still have Loomis! You all still have Loomis!

The Pumpkin Patch presents: Halloweeboot
Tinseltown - The Holiday Movie Podcast
Welcome to the alternate universe, pals! All this month, we'll be dipping into the Halloween universe to examine all the various times the Halloween franchise tried to make sense of its bloated continuity. This time, Courtney and I check out the first attempt to turn a singular masterwork into a franchise, which they did, for better or worse. (Note: Worse) We also discuss who finds the footage in found footage movies, why everyone in this movie sucks at their job, and do a live taste test of Oreo Coke Zero.

234 - A Very April Fool's Day April Fool's Day (The Grinch Musical)
Tinseltown - The Holiday Movie Podcast

232 - We Have A Christmas Story at Home Video (A Christmas Story 2)
Tinseltown - The Holiday Movie Podcast
The mayor's final sibling joins him to review A Christmas Story 2, a real hunk of junk from a short-lived DTV crap factory. NOTE: Since recording this episode, I finished "The House", and honestly, it was pretty good. Rough first act, but that's comedies for you, sometimes you have to sweat through the exposition.

232 - A Story; Christmas Story (A Christmas Story Christmas)
Tinseltown - The Holiday Movie Podcast
Like a delicious sandwich made with terrible bread, the middle of Legasequel Month turns out to be quite tasty, as Tim and I look at the surprisingly good, if awkwardly titled "A Christmas Story Christmas", which is probably the best case scenario for what it could have been. I don't know why there's two slices of bread on each side of the sandwich.

231 - Brokebrain Moron (National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation 2: Cousin Eddie's Island Adventure)
Tinseltown - The Holiday Movie Podcast
It's the middle of the beginning of theme month and the beginning of the end for Bogdanovich mainstay and Oscar nominee Randy Quaid. Join us as we look into the sad mush that is "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation 2: Cousin Eddie's Island Adventure".

230 - It's Been a Long Road Getting from There to Here (Home Sweet Home Alone)
Tinseltown - The Holiday Movie Podcast
HAPPY THEME MONTH! Our theme this year is "garbage sequels made LONG after anyone cared", and what better way to start than with 2022's "Home Sweet Home Alone", which isn't the worst Home Alone movie, but SURE IS the one I like the least!
info_outlineAnton and the Mayor look at Paul Feig's first big movie, "Unaccompanied Minors", a semi-fairly maligned but quite unfairly forgotten pretender to the Home Alone throne. Which is to say a movie where kids get up to unsupervised shenanigans at the expense of a character actor.
