This week on The Stacks, in part one (0:00-1:37:45), we talk about Martin Scorsese's 1976 character study of a spree killer, Taxi Driver, in addition to the fourth episode of American Horror Story season 1 (part one of their "Halloween" two-parter). In (our) part two (1:37:45-2:32:38) we talk in shorter form about 8 additional features: Peter Segal's 1994 franchise outlier Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult, Kaizo Hayashi's 1993 neo-noir The Most Terrible Time in My Life, Jet Eller's 1989 unreleased regional video Marley's Revenge: The Monster Movie, 2024's lesbian crime caper Drive-Away Dolls, directed by Ethan Coen with collaborator Tricia Cooke, the 1980 ZAZ absurdist kitchen-sink comedy classic Airplane!, 2019's Roman Chimienti & Tyler Jensen documentary Scream, Queen!: My Nightmare on Elm Street, David Fincher's disowned 1992 debut franchise picture Alien 3, and the 1998 Steven Spielberg war epic Saving Private Ryan. In part three, we talk briefly about everything else we've watched since last time, and make our picks for next week.
