Episode 50 Tootsie and Pulp Fiction

November 27, 2017 / Matt Fisher

Don’t ask why or how but it’s time for our 50th episode! Half of 100! Two 25’s! The big L! However you want to think about it, we decided to celebrate by talking about some movies you might have actually seen.We spun the AFI Roulette wheel and after two vetoes landed on Tootsie (1982) and Pulp Fiction (1994).

It’s a double feature that tenuously hangs together on a thread of excellent screenwriting and Lynne Thigpen. Lemon slices, morning burgers, and more on this episode of Ex Rated Movies!

Join us as we discuss the decor in Daniel Day-Lewis’ shoe repair shop, acknowledge the angry mob outside Matt’s apartment, and grill Kevin on Mousetrap. Ex Rated: It’s His Butt!

Episode 43 The Descent

October 09, 2017 / Matt Fisher

Terror comes in many forms. The Descent (2005), a tale about a group of Cameron-style bad-ass bitches spelunking in an unknown cave system, has all those forms. Claustrophobia, acrophobia, and stabbing-a-friend-in-the-neck-ophobia are all explored and exploited in what many consider to be one of the best horror movies of the past twenty years. Matt gushes and Ryan squirms as we continue our Schlocktoberfest here on Hex Rated Boo!vies: Watch Out For Dinosaur Herpes!
