This is our first "Calendar Episode" where we look at and talk through all through programming for a single month at the New Beverly Cinema (our new partner) in Los Angeles. Elric and Brian are joined by Phil Blankenship (social media manager for the New Beverly -- also previously a guest on our "Bonkers" episode) to talk about all the films (double features, midnights, kiddie matinees etc) playing at the theater for December. If you are not an L.A. native, definitely check out this episode nonetheless as the lion's share of films have been been picked by Quentin Tarantino himself! There's lots and lots of movie talk here for all of our listeners to enjoy!
We are back! And we have some big news about the show and new things that are happening with it! Have a listen as we discuss those changes as well as a range of topics from Orson Welles' THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WIND (and it's accompanying documentary), some picks for the Barnes and Noble Criterion sale, the demise of Filmstruck and Noirvember!

For their Season Three Finale, Elric and Brian return to their tradition of using one of Danny Peary's Cult Movies books as the jumping off point for the episode. They each choose their usual "Five Films Because" from the book and also throw in a short list of three movies each that they feel deserved to be highlighted from season three. During the break between seasons, be sure to look for them on Patreon, where they will continue to crank out exclusive bonus content!

After going in depth on John Carpenter and Documentaries, Elric and Brian go breezier with this "Exploitation Sampler" episode, in which they each choose a film from the categories of Blaxploitation, Hicksploitation, Canuxploitation, Sexploitation and one 'wild card' category of exploitation. This will hopefully just be a lead in to deeper dives into many if not all of these categories at a later date.

Elric and Brian return to the great John Carpenter again to talk about and pair the films from the second half of his career including such classics as BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA, PRINCE OF DARKNESS, THEY LIVE and IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS (and many more)! This episode is just as epic as the first part, and may be the longest episode of PCP to date! A proper tribute to an incredible gentleman!
