Movies and Chaos
This is a podcast looking at the impact and legacy of cult films. It’s hosted by Mark Palermo (former critic, screenwriter of Detention) and Serena Whitney (former critic, programmer of The Revue Cinema in Toronto). The movies discussed tie into screenings happening at The Revue and Thrillema, a cult series Palermo helps run in Halifax. Why do these movies endure? Is some stuff too much for modern audiences?

Comedy Comeback?
With the reboot of THE NAKED GUN released this Summer and sequels to SPACEBALLS and SCARY MOVIE on the way, will we finally enter a new era of film comedies? Serena and Mark have some ideas on why the genre has been away so long, and how well Liam Neeson plays Frank Drebin Jr. (born: 1994).
