Wag the Dog (1997) 10/28/2026

Wag the Dog (1997) "That is a complete fucking fraud and it looks 100% real. It's the best work I've ever done in my life because it's so honest." This week on Film Junk, we revisit one of the great political satires on screen, Barry Levinson's Wag the Dog. It captured the zeitgeist and arguably predicted the future back in the late '90s but it's time to find out how it holds up in our current political climate. Is Wag the Dog more relevant now than ever? Does Frank consider it to be more "clever" than funny? Could Jay pull off the Conrad Brean look in his day to day life? What is the best 54-40 song? Don't change horses midstream... check out the latest episode of Film Junk below. /episode/index/show/filmjunk/id/43482909

Film Junk Calendar Reveal - Nov. 2026 10/22/2026

Film Junk Calendar Reveal - Nov. 2026 Hot on the heels of a Halloween candy high, November looks a lot like Jizzmas, thanks to a selection of films that span a cavernous genre divide. From political comedies to whatever else we picked that I can't remember. I guess you'll just have to watch / listen to find out! /episode/index/show/filmjunk/id/43413109

You Can See Everything (2026) 10/21/2026

You Can See Everything (2026) Note: You Can See Everything was intended to be part of our November line-up but we decided to release the episode early due to all of the discussion surrounding the film. "Why would I deceive you? There's no reason for me to do that." This week we get caught in the Elizabeth Holmes distortion field as we review You Can See Everything, the new documentary by Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim. It's a movie with so many different layers that it almost seems to be about the nature of reality itself. Was Elizabeth Holmes knowingly defrauding investors or was she just being exploited by other people? Should documentary subjects have a say in or make a profit from movies that are about them? Can psychopaths be good people? Is there such a thing as objective truth in this world? Clearly it's very complicated... scam the scammers with the latest episode of Film Junk. /episode/index/show/filmjunk/id/43395879

The Blair Witch Project (1999) 10/14/2026

The Blair Witch Project (1999) Okay, here's your motivation. You're lost, you're angry in the woods and no one is here to help you. The Blair Witch Project was a pretty big deal when it arrived in theatres back in 1999 but it was (and still is) a somewhat divisive film. There is no debating the influence it had in terms of found footage horror but somehow the scares remain very subjective. Is this movie still an intense and immersive experience or is it just boring? Are the performances realistic and convincing or is there a little too much riffing going on? Was the marketing for the movie way ahead of its time? What is the deal with that blue slime? Pop a tent and order some Mary Brown's Chicken while listening to the latest episode of Film Junk. /episode/index/show/filmjunk/id/43295509

The Descent (2005) 10/12/2026

The Descent (2005) "We've always said, if there's no risk, what's the point?" On this week's episode of Film Junk, we gear up and dive back into the darkness as we return to Neil Marshall's acclaimed 2005 horror film The Descent. But not everyone on the podcast has seen it before... let's find out if still holds up or if it is actually a little bit "shite". Did The Descent kickstart the trend of "elevated horror" or is it kind of the opposite? Are the creatures just humans who got lost in the caves or are they something else entirely? Which ending is better... or do they both suck? Did the jump scares make Frankie go boom boom in his pants?

Viy (1967) 10/02/2026

Viy (1967) I summon the vampires! I summon the werewolves! I summon Viy! On this week's episode of Film Junk we are unearthing Viy, a spooky hidden gem from 1967 that is billed as the Soviet Union's first horror film. It's a wild ride that delivers some laughs, some thrills and a lot of impressive visual effects. So why isn't this movie more widely known? How is the Russian take on vampires, witches and demons different from the mythology we know today? Does vodka cure everything? Is there a connection between Viy and the Dogma poop monster?

The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) 09/28/2026

The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) This week on the Film Junk Podcast, let's do the time warp again as we revisit one of the biggest cult classics of all time. The Rocky Horror Picture Show remains an influential and utterly unique musical that seems like an ideal choice to kick off the month of October. But what is it about this movie that has allowed it to endure? Is Tim Curry's performance revered yet still somehow underrated? Is seeing it with a live audience the best way to experience this movie? What is the deeper psychological meaning behind Frank killing Eddie? Damnit Janet... don't dream it, be it on this week's episode of Film Junk. /episode/index/show/filmjunk/id/43050678

The History of Concrete (2026) + Remake (2025) 09/15/2026

The History of Concrete (2026) + Remake (2025) Sick of sloughing through shit from the Netflix doc-slop trough? FEAR NOT! It's time to crack open the Tickle Trunk and dig out your formal attire, because we've got two beautifully crafted entrees that will wipe that "premium doc" format aftertaste out of your stupid mouth: John Wilson’s The History of Concrete and Ross McElwee’s Remake. NOTE: If you DO have any interest in Remake, you might want to watch Sherman's March first. It's a beautifully fragrant appetizer that will prepare your palate for the best possible tasting experience when sucking down that McElwee Meat. /episode/index/show/filmjunk/id/42907832

Sherman's March (1985) 09/15/2026

Sherman's March (1985) "Could you turn it off? This is important. This is not art, this is life!" This week on Film Junk we are revisiting another film that was way ahead of its time. There was nothing like Ross McElwee's documentary Sherman's March back when it came out in 1985 but now we live in a world where everyone is capturing their life on video. Was this movie an influence on the work of people like Nathan Fielder and John Wilson? What do General Sherman, nuclear war, Burt Reynolds and the search for love all have in common? Is Charleen one of the great documentary characters of all time? Do leg squats actually get rid of cellulite?

Treknobabble: Cause & Effect In honour of Star Trek Day, we are taking an episode of Treknobabble out of the Patreon vault! On this one, Reed Farrington joins us to discuss season 5 episode 18, Cause & Effect (aka The Time Loop Episode). Must be deja vu... or is it vuja dej? /episode/index/show/filmjunk/id/42810510

Singin' in the Rain (1952) 09/07/2026

Singin' in the Rain (1952) Come Rain, come shine, come snow, come sleet, the show must go on! We are dancing our way through an all-time classic this week on Film Junk with the 1952 Gene Kelly musical Singin' in the Rain. The genre and era are a bit of a blind spot for us so we also brought in an "expert" to help us with our analysis. Does any of the humour still work for modern audiences? Which of the song and dance numbers are the most impressive? Is Donald O'Connor an unsung hero or is he just creepy? Is the movie truly a masterpiece or is it another case of classitosis? Make love to a bush and download this week's episode of Film Junk. /episode/index/show/filmjunk/id/42804455

Reign of Fire (2002) 09/07/2026

Reign of Fire (2002) Look out that window... Eden isn't burning, it's burnt. This week on the Film Junk Podcast we are jumping out of planes during magic hour as we dig hard, dig deep and look back on another post-apocalyptic world. This time Christian Bale and Matthew McConaughey are leading humans in a last stand against dragons in the 2002 cult classic Reign of Fire. Should this movie have been a bigger hit than it was? How do the special effects hold up over 20 years later? Does the fictional biology of dragons make any scientific sense? Can we improvise a better screenplay for this movie during the course of this podcast? Keep two eyes on the sky and download this week's episode of Film Junk below. /episode/index/show/filmjunk/id/42803255

Threads (1984) 09/05/2026

Threads (1984) Jesus Christ! They've done it... They've done it! After previously covering one of the most joyful movies of all time, this week we are tackling what could very well be the bleakest. Threads is a British docudrama that goes into brutal detail on the effects of nuclear war on the general population. But is this movie scientifically accurate? How would future generations learn to survive and rebuild society? Would Threads have been better if it starred Steve Guttenberg? Which members of the Film Junk crew would actually survive the apocalypse? Take shelter and soil yourself in fear while listening to this week's episode of Film Junk. /episode/index/show/filmjunk/id/42788665
