  • “I was a detective once. I know how to deal with you.”
    Oct 1 2025
    If The House that Jack Built wasn't serial killer entertainment enough, South Korea cinema seems to be equally obsessed with the more depraved amongst us with 2008's The Chaser. A serial killer chase film set in the nightlife district of South Korea, it's as wild as it is creative with the direction of the action in a way you just didn't see in American cinema at the time.

    It was optioned to be remade and it was the director's first film, and he wrote it as well; insane.

  • "Don't look at the acts, look at the works."
    Sep 30 2025
    If serial killer cinema is your bag, baby, and you've never seen Lars Von Trier's The House that Jack Built, let us tell you why you should change that immediately. Not only is it a career performance for Matt Dillon but it features what may be the most interesting and engaging serial killer performance this side of the Trinity Killer.

    If serial killers aren't your bag, stay for the Dante's Inferno of it all, and possibly the most meta death scene ever featuring Uma Thurman.

  • "This is a true story that happened in my town..."
    Sep 19 2025
    Addiction, mental health, grief: all things that can lead to an inescapable amount of trauma, heartbreak, and instability in one's life. Now, more often then not, those things aren't caused by a red-headed immortal witch but then again, those things aren't Weapons, Zach Cregger's latest joint.

    It's another fairy tale in in a horror movie wrapping with some comedic bits to boot.

  • "You need to take it down a notch!"
    Sep 11 2025
    Dramedy runs high with a film from Adam Carter Rehmeier that not only made waves in 2024 due to the dopamine machine known as TikTok but also made an impact when it was initially released: Dinner in America. Disc-Connected's Ryan Verrill joins the conversation with collaborator Jeremy Long as well to round out the conversation, ya fucking punks.

  • "I think it's nice that we share the same sky."
    Sep 4 2025
    Twice in one week while not having been around for months, kinda like a deadbeat dad who tries. Apropro that the second episode this week kick's off Disc-Connected Month with Aftersun, a movie about a seemingly not deadbeat dad and his young daughter on vacation in Turkey.

    Might not seem like "your" kind of movie but trust me, you'll never hear "Under Pressure" the same way again.

  • "Harness the good energy, block out the bad. Feel the flow."
    Sep 3 2025
    As we take a step back from your regularly scheduled programming, you advise you to turn on, tune in, and drop out with a very different conversation on life, film, the impact of film on life, and how the hell Adam Sandler swinging a putter shaped like a hockey stick ties it all together with Happy Gilmore.

  • The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean
    May 29 2025
    On this episode of The Kulturecast, Mike White, Father Malone, and Chris Stachiw wrangle with The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean (1972), a shaggy, mythic Western brought to life—or perhaps strangled—by director John Huston and star Paul Newman. The trio digs into John Milius's wild, operatic script, packed with larger-than-life frontier chaos, and asks whether Huston's revisionist instincts and Newman's laid-back performance undercut the film's outlaw poetry. It's a strange, lurching ride through the West that might leave you pondering how history gets whitewashed, lionized, or laughed off entirely.
