IslandFest

Sail with me as I navigate the savage seas of cinema, traveling from the south pacific to southern Asia, and beyond! We’ve got romantic brain injuries, animated earworms, surprisingly resilient children, aged aviators, hijacking hijinx, forgotten comedic oddities and dinosaurs!Turns out paradise ain’t all it’s cracked up to be… I need a vacation from my vacation movies…The Fest:50 First Dates (2004)Moana (2016)The Blue Lagoon (1980)Six Days Seven Nights (1998)Deep Rising (1998)Volunteers (1985)Jurassic Park (1993) This is a public episode.
