Collateral Cinema Movie Podcast

On the latest At the Movies review, we are downloading our new personalities from Lord and Miller’s Project Hail Mary, based on Andy Weir’s novel and starring literally me—Ryan Gosling. If this epic sci-fi comedy doesn’t win a large number of Oscar awards, we’ll be genuinely surprised. If you enjoy this spoiler-free episode, stay tuned for more At the Movies reviews such as Mortal Kombat II, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, and Backrooms, coming soon!

*Content warning: disturbing sexual, violent, and psychological subject matter* Thank you to all of our listeners, guests, and friends for a successful Season 9 of Collateral Cinema Movie Podcast! We are joined by Once-Over with Cayley for our Season Finale, as we dive into the controversial 1975 political art horror film Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom... Yeah, we’re doing that in 2026. Enough said. Stay tuned for our post-season content, such as At the Movies reviews, Director’s Cut! episodes, and our Miikeversary Special on Dead or Alive; as well as our Season 10 Premiere in October featuring Cannibal Holocaust!

It’s ButterCreamin’ time again on Collateral Cinema! We return to the universe of the 90s Christian home video film treasure The ButterCream Gang with its sequel Secret of Treasure Mountain for Bad Movie December, and this time we are joined by Cam Sully from the JURS Podcast to get in on all that hot ButterCreaming action. Feature Films for Families delivers once again on wholesome whitebread cinema and the true meaning of ButterCreaming, and if that’s not enticing enough for you, The ButterCream Gang 2 is inexplicably a parody of adventure movies like Indiana Jones! So come with us on this enlightening journey, and when you come, make sure you come all the way. It’s not just about reviewing movies or whatever; it’s about having fun. Also, stay tuned for our Holiday Special on the new Silent Night, Deadly Night remake (now in theaters), as well as more Bad Movie December content with Neil Breen’s Cade: The Tortured Crossing!

On our latest Collaboration Special with Collateral Gaming, we are joined by Craig from Reading Between the Reels to talk Simon West’s 2001 film adaptation of Tomb Raider, starring Angelina Jolie! Lara Croft: Tomb Raider is often overlooked in discussions about attempts to adapt video games in cinema, but looking back, it was a memorable action movie in its own right with a vivid performance by its female lead, and definitely worth an analysis today. So, grab your dual pistols and come chill with us as we review the first cinematic portrayal of gaming icon Lara Croft, and stay tuned for Bad Movie December—we’ll be covering The ButterCream Gang 2 and Neil Breen’s Cade: The Tortured Crossing!

It’s Post-Halloween time on the Director’s Cut!, as Beau and Ash review the 2023-by-way-of-2025 Toxic Avenger reboot, starring the likes of Peter Dinklage, Elijah Wood, and Kevin Bacon! As fans of all things Troma, we absolutely had to go see this at the movies and record a spoiler-free review, and what better way to conclude the spooky season than a new take on a splatter film icon? So, smoke some weed, grab your toxic mop, chill with us, and stay tuned for our review of The Amazing Spider-Man and Collateral Gaming collaboration episode on Lara Croft: Tomb Raider later this month!

Continuing our spooky season, we found the perfect pairing to our Season Premiere on Peter Jackson’s Dead Alive: Sam Raimi’s 1981 feature directorial debut and indie supernatural horror film, The Evil Dead! This is Collateral Cinema’s first venture into the Evil Dead franchise, and the importance of the original movie on independent filmmaking and the horror genre as a whole cannot be understated. So join Ash (Chancellor, not Williams), Beau, and guests Robbie Sherman (Conversations with Robbie Sherman) and The Vern (Cinema Recall), as we dive into this seminal exploitative film, and stay tuned for our Halloween Special on Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers, as well as more horror content!

Welcome back, stupid listeners! Are you comfortable? Are you getting enough oxygen? Collateral Cinema: Director’s Cut! is back with some more Adult Swim content, and this time we are joined by our friend Robbie Sherman to review the first season of Space Ghost Coast to Coast! With the passing of legend George Lowe earlier this year, and on the occasion of the anniversary of C. Martin Crocker’s death (we actually recorded this on the day), we thought it was appropriate to cover this iconic adult animated series/late night talk show parody that kicked off what would become Adult Swim (and arguably Cartoon Network as we know it), with its surrealist, non-sequitur humor that influenced so many of us growing up. So, chill with us on this special Director’s Cut! episode and stay tuned for Season Nine of Collateral Cinema! You’ll watch anything! Go ahead, change the channel. You’ll be back!
