This was a fun one, I am not going to lie. It was a game of "What's in the Bloody box?" a mystery game where I watch a movie (Anger of the Dead) and Micheal watches a different movie (Colin) that the other hasn't seen and we have to sell it to the other via a preamble and Q&A session.
Anger of the Dead, hated by Steph at Listeners of the Dead podcast, a misogynistic and misanthropic Italian movie with knock-off Negan Captain Rooker trying to populate the world with immune warriors by basically turning all the women he meets into sex slaves. Not a fan. The cinematography was good. The FX were ok. The script, and the acting were found lacking.
4.5/10
Colin, made for £45 and it showed. Potentially a clever idea but executed badly. Normally movies that follow the zombie (Fido, Warm Bodies, Dead Heads, and The Revenant) are comedies, but this was a drama (we think). Cheap, poorly acted, poorly scripted. Must try harder.
3.5/10
With special thanks to our fellow podders over at Let's Talk Turkeys podcast.
And special thanks to our musical guests Combat Sports, a 3 piece band out of Colchester Essex, with gritty guitars, fuzzy basslines, and the opinion that if you hit drums harder they sound better. It's a mix of nostalgia for 90's alt-rock/grunge sound, and a modern edge with production at the hands of Tom Donovan.
Their new track Social Fallacy expresses their frustration for what social media has become and how it now penetrates every part of life.
They have just released our debut EP 'Natrium' that you can find on Spotify
