56 - Crimewave (1985)

Odds and Ends: Armand Douglas Hammer has fallen on some hard times for a cannibal in the Caribbean; we go way over time gushing about Nathan Fielder’s new HBO show The Rehearsal, as well as a revisit into Nathan For You: Travis being absent, T.J. starts a new sidepod show on his own. Feature Film: We’re discussing the much-maligned (by both audiences and the creators themselves) 80s horror/action/thriller/noir/comedy Crimewave, directed by show favorite Sam Raimi, and co-written by the Coen brothers. A true disaster piece of a movie, with many spats between filmmakers and producers, recasting against Raimi’s wishes, and more than one drug-addled cast member, Crimewave somehow, at least in our eyes, manages to come out as a true gem of “pure cinema.” Just maybe not for the reasons it was intended to be.
