Enjoy! #MaxVonSydow #TimothyDalton #Topol #BrianBlessed #SamJJones #MelodyAnderson #OrnellaMuti #MikeHodges #PeterWyngarde   

 "Wanna date?" Mary Shelley's FRANKENSTEIN; OR, THE MODERN PROMETHEUS is one of the most influential novels ever written, that has been adapted for the screen hundreds of times.  On the latest edition of CITIZEN FRAME, we take a detailed look at two of these adaptations, both iconic in their own ways -- the recently-released Guillermo del Toro version and the 1990 "sexploitation" sleazefest FRANKENHOOKER! Ok!  Iconic maybe the wrong word to use to describe Frankenhooker. Enjoy! #GuillermoDelToro #OscarIsaac #MiaGoth #DavidBradley # JacobElordi #ChristophWaltz

It's witchin' time -- and Mater Suspiriorum awaits!  This year's "Halloween Month and a Half" wraps up in style with our look at Dario Argento's influential and unique slasher/Giallo/Gothic classic, SUSPIRIA!  You can expect blood, gore and childish insults -- and that's just Ciaran and Trevor. Enjoy! #DarioArgento #JessicaHarper #AlidaValli #StefaniaCasini #UdoKier     

It wouldn't be Halloween Month and a ½ without a king movie. This is a grim tale that has glimpses of Stand by Me and maybe even Lord of the Flies. 50 young men are chosen from a lottery to walk with a speed of 3 miles an hour or more until only one is standing.    Luke Skywalker doesn't use the force in this one but does have a military team he Captains watching their moves and has orders to shoot if the rules are broken. Join Ciaran and Trevor as they chat about this dark tale about humanity, forgiveness, loyalty and friendships in King fashion. Enjoy! #MarkHamill #FrancisLawrence #DavidJonsson #CooperHoffman #StephenKing

With the help of some camp counselors and some creepy premonitions maybe they can do it. Join Ciaran and Trevor as they discuss this horror sequel in hopes it holds up to the first. Or should this sequel be disconnected 😕  Enjoy! #MasonThames #MadeleineMcGraw #EthanHawke #ScottDerrickson #DemianBichir #JeremyDavies

Enjoy! #MarioBava #BarbaraSteele #JamesWhale #LambertoBava #DarioArgento    

We start Halloween month and half today with something of a disaster. Italian giallo horror has always been a respected genre like spaghetti westerns. From Bava to Argento and Fulci. Some work and some don't..this one doesn't. Sorry 😔  Join Ciaran and Trevor as they argue on why this film is highly overrated and quite frankly terrible. Enjoy! #MarioBava #DarioArgent #LucioFulci

This has it all. Join Ciaran and Trevor and they discuss this 90s take on film set in the 70s. 😁 Enjoy! #BrianDePalma #AlPacino #SeanPenn ViggoMortensen #MartinBregman #JohnLeguizamo     

“Say hello to our newest podcast!”😁 Let's take a moment to pay some remembrance to a trio of some great players  Chi Chi, Angel and Ernie.  These loyal bastards are just a few that are taken by the terrible decisions that their drug lord and horrible crime boss , Tony Montana makes during this film 3 hours runtime. He is bad at his job…right? Join Ciaran and Trevor as they discuss how bat shit crazy this film is and how bat shit crazy it's lead is. Enjoy! #AlPacino #StevenBauer #RobertLoggia #BrianDePalma #OliverStone #HowardHawks #MichellePheiffer #HarrisYulin  

This 1979 action drama is one of the best..hands down! “Can you dig it?!” The death of Cyrus has caused some chaos for the Coney island gang, The Warriors. The Fureys, the Punks and the Rogues all want a piece of them and nothing will stop them. Thank god the Warriors have Swan leading the way! Swan is played by (at the time a newcomer) Michael Beck. This is why we are doing this Michael Beck double feature with Xanadu. God help us all.

There are films that can be considered masterpieces and then there's this one… No, it's not Stop of My Mom Will Shoot or Howard the Duck but if you guessed those films you would be close😁 The Shawshank Redemption is a film that has not only offered the best bromance ever but a film that deals with issues that are relatable today and tomorrow. Hope. That's the key word. Join Ciaran and Trevor as they discuss why this film is so beloved and my favourite film of all time. Enjoy! #FrankDarabont #MorganFreeman #TimRobbins #BobGunton #ClancyBrown #MorganFreeman #WilliamSadler #StephenKing #GilBellows

Films often get lost in the shuffle of the summer blockbusters and even despite the lack of those this film still got lost. Chuck is a full that deserves viewings. For those fans of Truman Show or Forest Gump this film also follows the life span of a man but told backwards. Like other Kings works such as Stand By me and Shawshank this is a more grounded tale with a slight fantasy element. Join Ciaran and Trevor as they chat about Chuck and why people should give it a shot. Enjoy! #TomHiddleston #MiaSara #MarkHamill #MikeFlanagan #StephenKing #CarlLumbly #JacobTremblay #KarenGillan

In the 80s Vampire flicks were a dime a dozen. From Vamp to Fright Night to Once Bitten.  However, it was this film that gave us a killer soundtrack, killer villains, and some fun killer dialogue.

Enjoy! #KieferSutherland #DianneWiest #JasonPatric #EdwardHerrmann #CoreyHaim #CoreyFeldman #RichardDonner #JoelSchumacher
