Cinema Psychos - A Movie Review & Comedy PodcastMonkeybone (2001) is Beautiful Nightmare Fuel | Brendan Fraser’s Bizarre Forgotten ClassicWhat happens when Henry Selick, the Director of a Nightmare Before Christmas, Coraline, and James and The Giant Peach decides to create a live action film? You get the insanity that is Monkeybone. This dark fantasy/gross out comedy stars Brendan Fraser, Bridgette Fonda, the voice of John Tutoro, and zombie Chris Kattan and when it released in 2001, it failed at the box office and marked the short end to Henry Selick’s live action career. But does this movie deserve all the hate? And are there elements of Monkeybone that critics in 2001 just didn’t get? We’ll find ou...2025-03-222h 26

Blank Check with Griffin & DavidMonkeybone with Justin McElroyJust in time for Brendan Fraser’s big comeback, we’re taking a look back at his misguided collaboration with Henry Selick - 2001’s bizarro flop MONKEYBONE. Justin McElroy (no relation to Bridget Fonda’s Dr. Julie McElroy) returns to the podcast after having watched this film a whopping seven times (!!) to unpack all the madness. Why are there no rules or logic to the film’s “Dark Town” underworld? What was the appeal of Chris Kattan’s “Mango” character on SNL? Was this film the nail in the coffin for the kitschy retro-revival genre of projects that dominated the 1990s? Can we wr...2022-12-112h 35

Cinema To The Letter50: Fantastic Mr. MonkeyboneDouble Edged Double Bill turns the big 5-0 at 24 frames per second. Since the Laika title Missing Link came out recently, Adam Thomas and Thomas Mariani are joined by their returning animation enthusiast guest Scott Johnson to talk about two films featuring the artform of stop motion animation. First up is the good feature Fantastic Mr. Fox, where Wes Anderson brought his live action dollhouse aesthetic to a miniature landscape. Then, the bad feature is Monkeybone, in which Henry Selick's stop motion aesthetic was squandered on a lame fantasy comedy filled with crass humor and Brendan Fraser mugging. Together, our...2019-04-161h 11
