My mother and I sit down and watch a random cult classic movie, give listeners an overview and maybe a few opinions before we move on to talk about literally everything else. The gimmick is that I *love* movies and she hasn't seen a movie in a cinema since the 90s.

Mom and I sat down to a lovely spaghetti meal and watched Heathers. We talked stats, all the young actors in Hollywood that weren't in the movie, how school violence wasn't really a thing when this came out and then how my 80s/90s sucked LOL. Sorry for the therapy session. Find us on all our socials-Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and Pinteres…

With the passing of one Pope and the installation of the new one, Mom thought we should watch a movie with a Pope. Of the list she gave me, I knew this was currently streaming. This is a blind watch for both of us and to say we were surprised it wasn't trash is an understatement. We had a meal fit for Pope Francis and talked about the very limited …

Mom and I sat down and watched Freaks, Tod Browning's film about circus sideshow folk. We had circus food, corndogs and pretzels, peanuts and candy as our theme meal and we discuss Tod Browning and whether or not this film was exploitation. We watched this on Tubi, free with commercials. Go watch this film. It really is worth the watch.…

Mom and I dipped our toes into Hammer Films with Captain Kronos Vampire Hunter. It's not a great movie, but it will always have a soft place in my heart. We talked about the director and Hammer Films and then move into hot topics and recent deaths. The movie didn't have any eating in it, so we had pub grub and it was great.…

To send 2024 out with a laugh, Mom and I sat down and watched Let's Go To Prison. It's not a cult classic, per se, but it's hilarious nonetheless. We busted out the prison trays and had chicken sandwiches, fries, greens and hawaiian punch. This movie had hardly any trivia, so we talked Bob Odenkirk, 2024 prison stats and a Movies With My Mother yea…

Mom and I sat down for a festive, Christmas type movie and watched Gremlins. We talked trivia and the director...but Mom got Joe Dante and Richard Donner all mixed up LOL. We had a themed meal of oven fried chicken, mashed potatoes and corn, it was delicious. We did a TikTok...if you're not following us there, get hip because we're ridiculous.…

Mom and I conclude our Public Domain horror scare-tacular with 1922's Nosferatu. We had a lovely carving roast dinner and talked trivia, the Dracula litigation and the life and death of F.W. Murnau. The copy we watched was very muddy and the music was oddly jazzy...so if you go looking for this, find a better version. This is our 70th episode!! Who…

Mom and I are starting off our Spooky Season early. This year we are going to watch Public Domain horror movies. We kicked things off with the classic, Night of The Living Dead. We talked Romero, trivia, The Jackson 5 and P Diddy. Our theme meal was diner food, I had breakfast and mom had chicken fingers, it was delicious.…

Mom wanted to do a cult classic from the year she graduated high school, in honor of her 50th reunion. And oh boy, I found a doozy for her. We watched The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. We had a theme meal of smoked sausage and egg noodles (my personal favorite). We spent a lot of time going over the facts, the rumors and the money. What an interesting t…

Mom and I sat down and watched a film, like Mom has never seen before: foreign and nearly silent. We watched 1932's Vampyr. The Criterion cut we watched was comprised of bits and pieces from the German and French releases. The English release has been lost to time. There was no food in this movie, so we just had a nice diner breakfast. We talked va…

Mom and I sat down and watched one of her favorites, Ace Ventura Pet Detective. We had a yummy stadium food themed meal of hot dogs and tater tots. We talked trivia, what the director was up to, the presidential debate, women's healthcare in America and how I learned how to ride a bike-it was the 80s, so you know it was a traumatic event.…

To honor a recently deceased family member, Mom and I watched a movie that would have surely been one of his favorites, 1979's Alien. We had a protein paste type meal of Red Beans and Rice with cornbread as our theme meal and talked trivia, Ridley Scott and just how much cigarette smoke you can have in an oxygen rich environment.…

Mom and I sat down and watched John Carpenter's They Live. We talked a little trivia before getting to the nitty gritty and talking politics and homelessness. This movie was made in the 80's but even now, 35 years later, the message is the same. And that's the real horror of the whole thing. There isn't much food in this movie, so our theme meal wa…

Mom and I sat down to watch The Muppet Christmas Carol before Christmas to go along with our watching of Scrooged. This movie was better. Who doesn't love a muppet?? We had a wonderful turkey dinner as our theme meal. We hope you had a wonderful holiday season, whether you celebrate or not. And with this being posted in 2024, we hope the New Year t…

To round out our Sequel Spooktacular, Mom and I sat down and watched Army of Darkness, the third entry in the Evil Dead series. We had a lovely Flesh and Bone stew and chatted trivia, Bruce Campbell and Sam Raimi. Thank you for your continued support! Follow us on TikTok and Facebook. If you have questions, comments or suggestions please email us a…

Mom and I started Spooky Season and our Halloween Sequels Spectacular and watched Psycho 2. Not necessarily a cult classic, but it should be? We had a wonderful diner food breakfast and we talked trivia. I only called director Richard Franklin "Robert Franklin" once. I wanted to do it every time I said his name. I also spoil the shit out of recent …

Mom and I sat down and watched The Princess Bride. We ate Get Well Stew and talked trivia and my picky eating habits. I am a small child. Please follow us on Facebook.

Mom and I sat down to watch The Goonies. The recording is a little wonky, but not to worry, new equipment came so hopefully technical issues will not persist. We had a themed meal of Pizza-french bread pizza, with a very cool Pepsi glass to drink Coke out of and Mom talks about her Tennessee vacation and her even bigger news of her retirement.Thank…

Mom and I sat down and watched The Blues Brothers. We talked stats, trivia, racism and local events. We had a themed meal of diner food, though we forgot to have 4 fried chickens-not that we could've eaten all that anyway LOL. Last but not least, Mom and I made it onto a list!

Mom and I sat down and watched her first Tarantino movie. We had a diner breakfast from Cafe Lexie and talked trivia. The Grindhouse movie I couldn't recall was Deathproof, not Death Car, I knew I was wrong as soon as I said it. Follow us on Facebook and TikTok and if you'd like to contact us, email us at [email protected]. Thank you for…

After a hectic day, Mom and I sat down to watch Big Trouble In Little China. We had Thai instead of Chinese for our theme meal, because there's no good Chinese restaurants near my home. We talked trivia and stats, and veered off to mental health and Critical Race Theory-it's just history, nothing scary.Thanks for your continued listening. We really…
