Den of CinHalloween Special: Slashers Without SequelsDevin & James are back in the Den, and they're handing out full-sized candy bars to all the trick or treaters! Friend of the show Casey O'Connor returns to help us celebrate Halloween with a discussion of 1980s stand-alone SLASHER MOVIES that never became sequels or franchises (sorry, Freddy, Jason, Michael, and Chucky). We start by getting aboard the TERROR TRAIN, followed by the weird as hell HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME. Next comes the slaughter fest that is PIECES (It's exactly what you think it is!). Then we retreat to the woods with THE BURNING and MADMAN. We discuss the...
2025-10-313h 25Den of Cin1975 - The Horror MoviesDevin & James are back in the Den to start Spooky Season with a 50th anniversary celebration of the HORROR MOVIES OF 1975! We begin by rediscovering the nihilistic classic THE STEPFORD WIVES. Next, we debate if the masterpiece PICNIC AT HANGING ROCK and the underseen THE REINCARNATION OF PETER PROUD are even technically horror movies, or rather films so unique that they defy genre classification. Then we head to the drive-in for the cheestastic THE GIANT SPIDER INVASION. We next examine the taboos of David Cronenberg's disturbing, yet hilarious, SHIVERS. We travel to Spain to explore two bizarre horrors by...

And we're celebrating more 50th anniversaries for the iconic year of 1975. This time we're covering 1975's TOUGH GUY MOVIES! Ranging from over-the-top action to gritty neo-noir, some of our greatest movie stars of the era were busy making this year one of the best for being a badass. We start by taking a swing at Charles Bronson and James Coburn in the criminally underrated HARD TIMES. Then we dive into messy pro-killers James Caan and...
2025-09-193h 55Den of Cin1975 - Gangsters, Monsters, and Kung Fu: Films From AsiaDevin & James are back in the Den to celebrate the 50th anniversary of some fantastic and influential films coming from Asia in 1975! We start with one of our favorite monsters in the Kaiju classic THE TERROR OF MECHAGODZILLA! We then take to the streets with Kinji Kukasaku's brutal yakuza tale COPS VS. THUGS. Then things get more kung fu classical in the origin story of one of cinema's coolest weapons, THE FLYING GUILLOTINE. After that, we hop on THE BULLET TRAIN (No, not the Brad Pitt one. The Sonny Chiba one!). Our cinematic traveling continues down under with the...

2025-08-101h 29Den of Cin1975 - The Big FilmsDevin & James are back, and they're gonna need a bigger podcast. That's why they've brought back special guest CASEY O'CONNOR to discuss the blockbusters and award nominees of 1975! We start with a little film called JAWS, which some of you may have heard of before. We then move on to the Best Picture winner, ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST, followed by the Kubrick comedy (that's right, I'm calling it a comedy), BARRY LYNDON. We then take a turn toward Altman's NASHVILLE, before ending up in New York City for 3 DAYS OF THE CONDOR and DOG DAY AFTERNOON. Along...
2025-08-043h 19Den of Cin1975 - The Cult FilmsDevin & James are back in the Den with special returning guest star, CASEY O'CONNOR!! We needed an extra hand to take on the first episode of a new ongoing series about the cinema of 1975, with our first deep dive being into all the huge CULT FILMS of '75, celebrating their 50th anniversary this year! We start at the top with the iconic ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW. We then take that time warp back to visit MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL. Next are a couple of exploitation classics from two grindhouse giants, Russ Meyer's SUPERVIXENS, and Rudy Ray Moore...

Hi Pod! I'm Dad.What Lucas Taught Me About Living Without FearJames Gutman shares his journey of learning to truly see and appreciate his nonverbal son Lucas, transforming what many would consider a challenging situation into a source of profound joy and personal growth. This deeply personal episode explores how a heart surgery became the catalyst for shifting from constant worry about what he wasn't doing for his son to genuine appreciation for who his son actually is.• The contrast between raising a neurotypical daughter who hit all developmental milestones early and a son with autism who missed them• How people often take credit for their children's succ...
2025-06-0626 minDen of CinGene Hackman - Part TwoDevin & James are back in the DEN to conclude their discussion about one of the greatest American actors ever to hit the screen, GENE HACKMAN! This time around, we reach into some slightly more obscure territory. We get into his early Western work, in THE HUNTING PARTY and BITE THE BULLET. We also discuss two films he made with a frequent collaborator, Arthur Penn: the underappreciated TARGET and the stone-cold neo-noir masterpiece, NIGHT MOVES. Actress Joanna Cassidy shows up as a match for Hackman in THE PACKAGE and UNDER FIRE. We also discuss a couple of misfires that may...
2025-06-032h 26Den of CinGene Hackman - Part OneDevin & James are back in the DEN to pay tribute to one of the greatest performers of all time, GENE HACKMAN! Gene Hackman may have retired from acting 20 years before his unfortunate passing earlier this year, but in his five decades of filmmaking, he created a filmography that's impossible to match. In fact, we had to extend this out to two episodes. In this first of two, we discuss some of Hackman's earlier work, such as MAROONED and CISCO PIKE. We get into some of his heavy hitters, like HOOSIERS, MISSISSIPPI BURNING, UNCOMMON VALOR, and UNFORGIVEN. We also cover...
2025-04-152h 27Den of CinOff-Brand DraculasDevin & James are back in the Den, and it's full of bats! In this episode, we are covering a very specific type of vampire... OFF-BRAND DRACULAS! These vampires may have castles in Transylvania, look hot in a cape, or have an unnatural interest in foreign real estate, but they all owe their cinematic existence to the literary existence of Bram Stoker's Dracula. We start with NOSFERATU, covering Murnau's 1922 silent classic, through Herzog in 1979, and to Eggers in 2024. We then move on to a couple of Bela Lugosi films, where he plays a bloodsucker who is "definitely NOT Dracula" (legally...
2025-03-182h 30Den of CinTour of Italy: Poliziotteschi EurocrimeDevin & James are back in the Den to bid a final "ciao" to the TOUR OF ITALY series with a look at the violent world of POLIZIOTTESCHI movies! (or Eurocrime, for the pronunciation challenged.) Italy had a special touch with crime thrillers during their politically tumultuous "Years of Lead," and we go over some of the genre's highest points, starting with Enzo G. Castellari's HIGH CRIME (1973), starring Franco Nero, and Franco Nero's mustache. We follow that with Lucio Fulci's only crime film, the gloriously bloody CONTRABAND (1980). Then we get into the sticky details around the release of Mario Bava's...
2025-02-253h 23Den of CinTour of Italy: The Knock-OffsDevin & James are back in the Den with their penultimate visit to Italy! This time we shift from focusing on one genre to examining a type of film that is not uniquely Italian, but they sure put their own style on: THE KNOCK-OFF. Low-budget films ripping off box office hits has always been a popular way for Producers to make a buck. Still, the filmmakers themselves can sometimes bring their own spin to a popular trope or trend and create works that rise above being called simply imitations. And then... there are the imitations. We make the case that...
2024-12-103h 02Den of CinTour of Italy: Science FictionDevin & James are back in the Den, and are go for launch! As we return to our Tour of Italy, this time the action will take us right into the stratosphere with ITALIAN SCIENCE FICTION! We start with the doomed visitors to Mario Bava's PLANET OF THE VAMPIRES, a still underappreciated film that inspired a generation of Sci-Fi writers and directors. We then swing into more action with the utterly bizarre, early body horror, Antonio Margheriti's WILD, WILD PLANET (it's wild enough to deserve it twice in the title). Then we take off for a galaxy far, far away-ish...
2024-11-222h 46Den of CinHalloween PODcast: Invasion of the Body Snatchers ('56, '78, '93, & '07)Devin & James are back, and we've brought fun size candy! We're taking a short detour from our Tour of Italy to celebrate Halloween, and what better way than by running a movie marathon? We take on one of the most unique series in film history: All four of the INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS films! The pod people first invade in 1956, then make an even more gruesome return in 1978, creating two undisputably beloved and influential Sci-Fi Horror classics. Then things stray from the storyline with 1993's BODY SNATCHERS, a lost classic worth another look (or a first look, for...
2024-10-303h 03Den of CinTour of Italy: Supernatural HorrorDevin & James are back in the DEN OF CIN, and it's getting a little spooky in here as we continue our TOUR OF ITALY. This time we are taking on SUPERNATURAL HORROR. There were a lot of ghouls, goblins, ghosts, and witches lurking around Italy during their classic horror period, and we get things started with one of the first: Mario Bava's iconic BLACK SABBATH, starring Boris Karloff! We follow that up with the Dario Argento oddity PHENOMENA (known here in the U.S. as CREEPERS, with about 34 minutes butchered out!), before moving into lesser-seen Lucio Fulci territory with...
2024-09-182h 54Den of CinTour of Italy: Spaghetti WesternsDevin & James are back in the saddle for another roundup of Italian flicks. A sampling of the cultiest of all cult genres, the SPAGHETTI WESTERNS! When Clint Eastwood rode through Spain and called it Mexico in 1964's Fistful of Dollars, it started a legit European phenomenon that would produce over 600 titles in barely over ten years! Whereas the American Westerns often whitewashed and mythologized its own westward history, the idea of the good guys always wearing white was losing steam by the 1960s, and the Italians had no sentimentality toward the Earp or James clans as historical figures. The...

2024-08-1523 minDen of CinTour of Italy: Religious HorrorDevin & James are back in the Den for more Italian scares! This time our focus is on RELIGIOUS HORROR, which has been possessing Italian horror since nearly the beginning of the genre during the sound era. We start with the immortal masterpiece, Mario Bava's BLACK SUNDAY (without which Tim Burton movies would have been very different). We then move on to our first legacy film of the series, DEMONS, the ultimate what-the-fuck popcorn demon movie by Lamberto Bava (Mario's son). Then we swing toward Michele Soavi's more artful (but still seriously gory and gross) THE CHURCH. And finally, what...
2024-08-062h 40Den of CinTour of Italy: Post-ApocalypseDevin & James are back in the Den, and this time they brought their leather vests and switchblade boots cause they're ready for the Italian POST-APOCALYPSE. The post-atomic wasteland became all the rage globally after the success of films like Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior and Escape from New York, and clever (and not-so-clever) copycats began to pop up everywhere. But, as usual, the Italian filmmakers did take the proverbial yellowcake. In this episode we focus on Enzo Castellari's 1990: THE BRONX WARRIORS, Joe D'Amato's ENDGAME, Lucio Fulci's WARRIORS OF THE YEAR 2072, and finally, Sergio Martino's HANDS OF STEEL. Don't forget...
2024-07-092h 42Den of CinTour of Italy: Cannibals & ZombiesDevin and James are back in the Den, and ready to take you on an Italian picnic! (If you can stomach it.) As we continue our sampling of Italian genre films, we finally hit on a few legit Video Nasties with two of the most popular and trigger warning-worthy subgenres, CANNIBALS and ZOMBIES. We start things off with scandal right away in Ruggero Deodato's CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST, followed by a visit to Umberto Lenzi's NIGHTMARE CITY (Don't you dare call them zombies!). Then we move from living flesh eaters to the undead ones with Andrea Bianchi's super bizarre BURIAL GROUND...
2024-07-012h 45Den of CinTour of Italy: Sword & Sandal & SorceryDevin & James are back in the Den, and the Den is still in Italy! In our second Tour of Italy episode, we are going back to the roots of the Italian genre/cult film era with the SWORD & SANDAL films of the 1950s and 60s, introducing film fans to the hero Hercules for the first time, and giving us our first film of the evening, Mario Bava's colorful HERCULES IN THE HAUNTED WORLD. From there, we move to the SWORD & SORCERY era of the 1980's, where we examine some films that owe an awful lot to Conan the Barbarian...

2024-05-2955 minDen of CinTour of Italy: GialloDevin & James are back in the Den with a new topic! We are taking a TOUR OF ITALY, an 8-episode long series, each featuring a different sub-genre created or perfected by Italian filmmakers. We begin with a journey through the shadowy dream territory of GIALLO films. These films are highly stylized murder mysteries, most with a heaping helping of gore. We offer up a sample of some great specimens, and specifically some of the great directors, in this uniquely Italian movement, with a focus on Mario Bava's BLOOD & BLACK LACE, Lucio Fulci's DON'T TORTURE A DUCKLING, Sergio Martino's TORSO...

We review the final films we ever got from him as a director, deep dive into CURSED and RED EYE, and top it all off with a discussion on his second major franchise, the SCREAM series. A lot of highs and lows in this period, and we go over a lot of the studio drama that resulted in a couple of these films being far less than what they could have been, but we end on...
2024-05-022h 23Den of CinWes Craven: The Lost YearsDevin & James are back in the Den with the third in their series on the career of writer/director Wes Craven. This time they turn their focus to the period between Freddy and Ghostface (1985-1995). We discuss all of his theatrical films during this era but put a spotlight on THE SERPENT AND THE RAINBOW, SHOCKER, and THE PEOPLE UNDER THE STAIRS. Not so much "lost" as underappreciated, Craven shows that in many ways he was at a certain creative peak during this time, and being unfairly held up to what Freddy Krueger had become as the 1980's wore...

Freddy Krueger from A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET. We are focusing on the series installments that Craven participated in, covering the story arc of his ultimate Final Girl, Nancy (played by Heather Langenkamp). We'll dive into the original NIGHTMARE from 1984, as well as 1987's NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 3: DREAM WARRIORS, and 1994's NEW NIGHTMARE, and discuss the ways Craven turned the slasher genre on its head...

And, of course, we are starting at the beginning with Craven's roughest films, THE LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT and THE HILLS HAVE EYES. (TRIGGER WARNING: These films are very graphic.) Then we follow the course of his career into writing/directing one of the first comic book adaptations of the post-Donner's Superman era, DC's SWAMP THING! And this is just the beginning, as we'll have three more Wes Craven-centered episodes following in the weeks ahead!
2024-03-132h 46Den of Cin1994: The OddballsDevin & James are back in the DEN OF CIN to wrap up their series on the year in cinema that was 1994. This time we take a more personal approach. Rather than one theme tying them together, Devin & James have each picked 2 movies from 1994 that they want to discuss... just because. James gives us a backstory on why 1994 was such an important year for Hong Kong action movies becoming popular in the United States with Jet Li's FIST OF LEGEND and Jackie Chan's epic DRUNKEN MASTER 2 (aka Legend of the Drunken Master). Devin goes in a much more random direction...

This week, we take a look specifically at the Best Picture race at the Academy Awards. Forrest Gump took the top award, but we dive into some of the other films that were nominated and didn't take home statues, specifically THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION and QUIZ SHOW.

We examine whether NYPD detective Popeye Doyle (masterfully played by Gene Hackman) was ever intended to be seen as a hero in the Oscar-winning 1971 original based on the true story of a rough, racist cop's obsession to thwart a French drug kingpin. We also dig into its totally fictional sequel, released in 1975, and discuss whether it's a worthy watch to see Popeye pursue the villain who escaped him in real life (it is). And...

This time, we are taking on the classic Italian crime films, VIOLENT CITY (1970), starring Charles Bronson & Telly Savalas, and CALIBER 9 (1972), known as one of the greatest crime films ever produced! Both of these films are prime examples of the Italian sub-genre, Poliziotteschi, and we dive a bit into the intense political movements behind these films, as well as what this genre represents to Italian and world cinema culture, as well as offer some... shall we say unique?... ways to pronounce the word (literally translated to "...

This time we're taking on a couple of cynical satires, SCROOGED with Bill Murray and BAD SANTA with Billy Bob Thornton. These films are at once so rude and raunchy, yet filled to the brim with the Christmas Spirit. A delicate balance that has never quite been perfected as well as it is in these two yule classics by master directors Richard Donner & Terry Zwigoff. So trim your tree, grab your smokes, and pour the eggnog heavy...
2022-12-061h 47Den of CinNeo-Noir Heist Double Feature - Thief (1981) & Drive (2011)Devin & James are back in the Den with a doozy of a double feature! This time we're driving along the wrong side of the tracks with a couple of hard-nosed, highly-stylized neo-noir crime movies. THIEF (1981) and DRIVE (2011) feel like they share DNA (along with THE DRIVER (1978), which gets more than an honorable mention from us). With plots that seem deceptively simple on the surface, these films feature characters with a ton of rage brewing beneath what's visible up top. James Caan and Ryan Gosling are at their peak here, as are the rest of the brilliant ensemble casts, which...

In honor of our favorite holiday, we're discussing the film adaptations of STEPHEN KING!!!! Possibly the only American author to become his own sub-genre in the cinema canon, King adaptations have been a part of the celluloid landscape since 1976's CARRIE, and they are still coming fast and frequent!

Be careful of The Blob." So warns the catchiest pop tune ever to open a monster movie. Devin & James are celebrating the start of the Halloween Season with a look back at one of the most fun, and underrated, horror/sci-fi series of the 20th century. From the indie charm of the classic 1958 original (Steve McQueen as a teenager?) through its bizarre, nearly forgotten 1972 sequel (Larry Hagman as a director?) and...

We also make a quick examination of the contagions and parasites unsealed in George A. Romero's THE CRAZIES and Cronenberg's own SHIVERS, and how these films all feed upon each other so nicely. Are these films as depraved as their reputations? What qualifies as a Plague Movie? Can experimental plastic surgery really cause someone to grow a hungry, spiked phallus from their armpit?

Love 'em or hate 'em, the back half of this iconic film series has given us plenty to talk about. From the start of the Zombie Jason era, to a lake trip to NYC, to Hell and back, to outer freakin' space, and then back to meet an old foe in need of a severe manicure, these films really take viewers all over the place.

2022-05-121h 56Den of CinMichael BiehnDevin & James return to the DEN OF CIN to discuss action icon MICHAEL BIEHN. From his breakout one-two punch in THE TERMINATOR & ALIENS, through his bad guy turn in TOMBSTONE, to his current slate as writer/director/star of indie horror flicks, Biehn has always been one of the more interesting, and perhaps misunderstood, of 80's action stars. We get into a few of his early and mid-career highlights too, like 1981's THE FAN and 1993's gleefully insane DEADFALL. You don't wanna miss this one, or Angus Scrimm's weird robo-claw hand in Deadfall!

First we get into Paul Bartel's 1982 cult comedy EATING RAOUL, starring Bartel, his longtime collaborator Mary Woronov, and Robert Beltran in the title dish... er, we mean role. Then we dive into a very recent film for a change, the 2022 Hulu "meat cute", FRESH. Directed by Mimi Cave, starring the excellent Daisy Edgar-Jones, as well as Sebastian Stan in a role sure to make your skin crawl (and braise, broil, or roast). All this, plus a huge...
2022-03-251h 30Den of CinIvan Reitman with Special Guest Casey O'ConnorDevin & James have brought their ol' buddy Casey O'Connor back to the Den of Cin to pay tribute to yet another legend we have recently lost, Ivan Reitman. Reitman was prolific as a writer/director/producer, and to try listing all his accomplishments in this space would be an exercise in futility. We do our best to jam in as much as we can, from his trashy exploitation roots through some of the most incredible and important mainstream work the art form has ever seen. For the director whose film Meatballs gave us the immortal chant of "It Just Doesn't...

From his start with Roger Corman, into his meteoric rise from "The Last Picture Show" through "Paper Moon," into some of his very famous friendships with the very famous, and on to his works during the personal and professional lows he carried with him through the late 1970s-early '80...

With PLANET OF THE APES, THE OMEGA MAN, and SOYLENT GREEN (set in the futuristic hellscape of 2022), Chuck dropped a pop culture bomb that rippled through the American psyche, forever influenced sci-fi, sparked philosophical debates, advanced the action figure industry, and led to some of the most popular Simpsons references and SNL sketches of the '90s.

In this first of a three-part series, we begin with the horror and science fiction entries of '89. So many major horror titles came to life this year, including deep-sea adventures The Abyss and Leviathan, bizarre foreign entries like The Church, Santa Sangre, and Tetsuo: The Iron Man, and American oddities like Society and Parents.

In Part One, we visit with Doc & Marty, Peggy Sue, Jack the Ripper, Lyle Swan, the T-800, The Unmarried Mother, and face the Army of Darkness (and more!). But time takes its toll on those who travel it, and your exhausted hosts will have to refuel their Mr. Fusion and take another trip in our next episode.
2021-01-081h 23Den of CinRevenge Films - Part TwoJust like one of the best examples of the genre itself, it took Devin & James two volumes to explore the seedy underbelly of REVENGE FILMS. In our new episode, we take on Tarantino, Revenge Westerns, Nicolas Cage at his most unhinged (if that's possible), and a few other surprises we missed on our first go-round. Please join us as we take a fun look at some rough freakin' movies.
2020-12-201h 34Den of CinRevenge Films - Part OneDevin & James are back in THE DEN OF CIN!! In our new episode, we take on our most challenging topic yet with REVENGE FILMS! This sub-genre is chock full of cruelty and brutality, but it can also be full of style, thoughtfulness, and even elegance. We get into the (sometimes unimaginable) humanity found in these films and discuss the reasons they are worthy of examination. Devin & James always have fun talking about movies, but to be fair, this episode (and all the films discussed) should come with a TRIGGER WARNING. Proceed with love and caution.
2020-12-131h 31Den of CinJohn Carpenter - Part Two with Special Guest Casey O'ConnorIn lucky number Episode 13, Devin & James continue trick or treating through John Carpenter's career with their old buddy Casey.

2020-10-271h 26Den of CinWillem DafoeDevin & James dig into the massive filmography of Willem Dafoe, one of the greatest and most distinctive actors working today. From his start as the ultimate tough guy in 80's flicks like "Streets of Fire" and "To Live and Die in LA," through more mainstream work in major hits like "Spider-Man," and into some of the most physically and emotionally intense art and horror films ever committed to celluloid in masterworks like "Anti-Christ" and "The Lighthouse," we try to catch as much as we can (and still miss a few) of his 136 IMDB acting credits!
2020-10-171h 47Den of CinCannon Film Group - Part Two: Electric BoogalooDevin & James are back to debunk the cry, "There can be only one!" In our second deep dive into the 1980's cinema of The Cannon Film Group, we take on elite writers & directors, immortals, nuclear men, the power of Grayskull, Van Damme's dance moves, the way Cobra eats his pizza, and fiercely debate who makes the better father: Sly Stallone or Robert Loggia. We even saved some time to discuss the greatest Cannon film that never was, about a certain friendly neighborhood web-slinger.
2020-10-011h 30Den of CinCannon Film Group - Part OneDevin & James have done it again! This week's topic, an examination of 80's cinema from the CANNON FILM GROUP, has proven too big to contain in one podcast. After discussing ninjas, disco and hip hop musicals, holiday slashers, and the Two Chucks (Bronson and Norris), there still wasn't enough time to get near the full scope of what producers Menahem Golan and Yoram Globus delivered to eager popcorn lovers throughout the decade.
