My mother and I sit down and watch a random cult classic movie, give listeners an overview and maybe a few opinions before we move on to talk about literally everything else. The gimmick is that I *love* movies and she hasn't seen a movie in a cinema since the 90s.

Mom and I are starting off our Spooky Season early. This year we are going to watch Public Domain horror movies. We kicked things off with the classic, Night of The Living Dead. We talked Romero, trivia, The Jackson 5 and P Diddy. Our theme meal was diner food, I had breakfast and mom had chicken fingers, it was delicious.…

Mom wanted to do a cult classic from the year she graduated high school, in honor of her 50th reunion. And oh boy, I found a doozy for her. We watched The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. We had a theme meal of smoked sausage and egg noodles (my personal favorite). We spent a lot of time going over the facts, the rumors and the money. What an interesting t…

Mom and I sat down and watched a film, like Mom has never seen before: foreign and nearly silent. We watched 1932's Vampyr. The Criterion cut we watched was comprised of bits and pieces from the German and French releases. The English release has been lost to time. There was no food in this movie, so we just had a nice diner breakfast. We talked va…

Mom and I sat down and watched one of her favorites, Ace Ventura Pet Detective. We had a yummy stadium food themed meal of hot dogs and tater tots. We talked trivia, what the director was up to, the presidential debate, women's healthcare in America and how I learned how to ride a bike-it was the 80s, so you know it was a traumatic event.…

To honor a recently deceased family member, Mom and I watched a movie that would have surely been one of his favorites, 1979's Alien. We had a protein paste type meal of Red Beans and Rice with cornbread as our theme meal and talked trivia, Ridley Scott and just how much cigarette smoke you can have in an oxygen rich environment.…

Mom and I sat down and watched John Carpenter's They Live. We talked a little trivia before getting to the nitty gritty and talking politics and homelessness. This movie was made in the 80's but even now, 35 years later, the message is the same. And that's the real horror of the whole thing. There isn't much food in this movie, so our theme meal wa…

Mom and I sat down to watch The Muppet Christmas Carol before Christmas to go along with our watching of Scrooged. This movie was better. Who doesn't love a muppet?? We had a wonderful turkey dinner as our theme meal. We hope you had a wonderful holiday season, whether you celebrate or not. And with this being posted in 2024, we hope the New Year t…

Mom and I started Spooky Season and our Halloween Sequels Spectacular and watched Psycho 2. Not necessarily a cult classic, but it should be? We had a wonderful diner food breakfast and we talked trivia. I only called director Richard Franklin "Robert Franklin" once. I wanted to do it every time I said his name. I also spoil the shit out of recent …

Mom and I sat down to watch The Goonies. The recording is a little wonky, but not to worry, new equipment came so hopefully technical issues will not persist. We had a themed meal of Pizza-french bread pizza, with a very cool Pepsi glass to drink Coke out of and Mom talks about her Tennessee vacation and her even bigger news of her retirement.Thank…

Mom and I sat down and watched The Blues Brothers. We talked stats, trivia, racism and local events. We had a themed meal of diner food, though we forgot to have 4 fried chickens-not that we could've eaten all that anyway LOL. Last but not least, Mom and I made it onto a list!

Mom and I sat down and watched her first Tarantino movie. We had a diner breakfast from Cafe Lexie and talked trivia. The Grindhouse movie I couldn't recall was Deathproof, not Death Car, I knew I was wrong as soon as I said it. Follow us on Facebook and TikTok and if you'd like to contact us, email us at movieswithmymother@yahoo.com. Thank you for…

After a hectic day, Mom and I sat down to watch Big Trouble In Little China. We had Thai instead of Chinese for our theme meal, because there's no good Chinese restaurants near my home. We talked trivia and stats, and veered off to mental health and Critical Race Theory-it's just history, nothing scary.Thanks for your continued listening. We really…

Mom and I sat down and watched Con Air...another movie I was surprised to see was considered a Cult Classic. My computer glitched a couple times, I tried to work around theme the best I could, you've been warned.We lost our damn minds with the theme of this watch. Lunch pulled from prison menus, dessert fit for a cartoon convict and costumes to mat…

Mom and I sit down and watch The Boondock Saints. We had a themed meal of Corned Beef and Cabbage and talked around the self indulgent trivia.

Thank you for…

Mom and I sat down to watch a family favorite, Clue. We have been watching this movie since the late 80s and it still is one of the funniest movies ever made. We had Miso soup and Chicken Stir Fry, since Shark's Fin Soup and Monekys Brains aren't easy to find in Ohio. There is a glitch near the beginning of the recording where the Rotten Tomatoes a…

Mom and I sat down and watched Coming To America. We were both surprised to see this under the cult classic umbrella, but had a good time watching it. For our theme meal, we had McDonald's breakfast...because we got together before lunch time started. We appreciate you taking time out of your day to listen to us. Follow us on Facebook at Movies Wit…

Mom and I sat down after the holidays and watched the Christmas classic Elf. We had pancakes for dinner and talked about current events. I apologize, in advance, for laughing as hard as I did. Enjoy!

Y'all!! I'm so sorry this has taken eight years to work on. We watched 9 To 5 and had a lovely chat about how much we love working. We had a themed lunch of sandwiches and also discussed other notable movies about women in the workforce, during Women's History month. Again, sorry this took so long to release. We hope you enjoy! Find us on Facebook …

Y'all this episode is the epitome of technical issues. It turns out the computer mic did all the recording, so it's reeeeaaalllll rough. We watched The Fifth Element and had Beef and Broccoli over sticky rice. I spilled a drink and you can hear the exasperation in the worst opening ever. We also got mired down by little fun trivia. Luc Besson is a …

Mom and I sat down and watched Super Troopers. She LOVED it! LOL We also sent condolences to the UK Royal Family on the loss of Queen Elizabeth II. We talked about Meghan Markle's podcast and how the world is going to end after the next Pope dies...which may or may not be a conspiracy theory? Thank you for sticking with us! We try to update when we…

On a creepy day, Mom and I sat down to watch The Cabin In The Woods. Themed meals are still postponed, but as Mom will point out, they really only consumed beer and marijuana....and yeah, that's not an activity we share. I feel like you all are kind of in for a treat, because this is an uncharacteristically focused episode LOL. I think this movie h…

Mom and I sat down and watched Office Space, a 23 year old movie that has held up so well, you'd cry if you weren't laughing. Please be warned that there is a big jump cut in the recording around the 53 minute mark. It seems that recording froze and missed the end of one conversation, causing me to then delete the subsequent chatter about our tech …

Happy Belated Pride to all! Mom and I sat down to watch Kinky Boots. She had seen the touring stage production, but not the movie, so it was a fun time to be had. There wasn't a lot of trivia for this movie and the events of the few days before recording were heavy on our spirits. In the US the highest court of the land overturned a 50 year old rul…

In mid-April, Mom and I sat down to watch one of my husband's favorite movies, The 'Burbs. It's got everything we love about crazy people and everything we loathe about living in suburbia. We made homemade pizzas for lunch and had brownies for dessert, of course. Follow us on Facebook and Twitter at Movies With My Mother and mwmmpod, respectively. …

Yes, I know we skipped number 20. 9 to 5 had some audio issues I've not yet managed to conquer. In the mean time, Mom and I watched Hot Fuzz. She came over with hardly any notes and was afraid she might not like this film. Turns out she loved it. We also talk about work, the US abolishing Day Light Saving's Time too fast, and just how cute Edgar Wr…

Mom and I sat down and watched Friday. We had planned on a different movie but decided this was a little more Mom's speed. Would you want to watch sex scenes, plural, with you mother?? I didn't think so. Our themed meal was awesome, but themed to the wrong Friday movie LOL. We had sweet ass burritos, but no extra hot sauce. We talk local politics, …
