Episode 398: Are You There God? I Know It’s After Hours

Erik Childress and Peter Sobczynski have a jam-packed week for you in physical media. It includes the long-awaited upgrade for an often overlooked Martin Scorsese classic. Emily Blunt debuts in a lovely coming-of-age film while two Oscar winners and a should-have-won-all-the-Emmys actor make their debut in an early ‘80s slasher film. There is some hatred for the latest Scream and some for a John Hughes character but some surprising love for an early ‘90s Rambo knockoff. There is also one of the essential film noirs with John Garfield, a little Ari Aster discourse and nothing but love for one of the best films of the year that you should absolutely add to your collection. 0:00 - Intro 1:06 - Criterion (The Watermelon Woman, After Hours (4K)) 16:11 - Imprint (The Bounty, Damage, Leap (Duo Guan), Malena, My Summer of Love, Not One Less) 40:20 - Synapse (McBain) 46:48 - Kino (Chile '76, Close to Vermeer, Film Noir: The Dark Side of Cinema XV, Force of Evil, Human Desire, Only In Theaters) 1:04:05 - IFC (Corsage) 1:06:48 - Universal (Book Club: The Next Chapter, Battlestar Galactica (1978) (4K)) 1:19:58 - Paramount (Scream VI (4K), Ferris Bueller's Day Off (4K)) 1:31:01 - Shout!
