Episode 37; Red Planet or; The Planet That Algae Built

It's been way too long, but we're back. And what a stylin' way to come back. ALMOST too fat Val Kilmer and Carrie Anne Moss star in the Mars-sploitation flick, Red Planet, which is #13 in our "Biggest Box Office Bombs" marathon series!

Sean was not there this week, but Noah and Michael had help from the very funny Jarrette Galante, who has a web series called "Roomies" check it here:

So, before you go see Apollo 18 this weekend, listen to Cinemasochists episode 37!

LISTEN HERE!

Mission Statement

Sure we have a simple mission statement already ("We watch bad movies, so you don't have to"). I feel it's appropriate and something to grab on to. However, Cinemasochists podcast co-host Michael stumbled upon a very....profound (?) quote from the late movie critic Pauline Kael. Read below and feel free to comment.

"The romance of movies is not just in those stories and those people on the screen but in the adolescent dream of meeting others who feel as you do about what you’ve seen. You do meet them, of course, and you know each other at once because you talk less about good movies than about what you love in bad movies.”

- Pauline Kael, Trash, Art, & The Movies (1969)

Episode 36; Soldier (1998-Kurt Russell) or; Behind Blue Eyes

This week we took a detour from the "Top 15 Biggest Box Office Bombs" or BBOB's to do a movie that may be close to many hearts, including our special guest; BLOODSPORT!

Top 15 Biggest Box Office BOMBS!

Cinemasochists podcast co-host Michael came up with the idea of doing a marathon of the "Top 15 Biggest Box Office Bombs." This marathon will be a first for the podcast and you'd be surprised what made the list....It's not what you'd expect.

This week, we will post part 1 of 15, or if you're keeping track episode 34.

So, check back to see what made the list and what we thought of it. Chances are, they all suck.

Thanks for comin' by!
