Movie Bonfire on Game of Thrones Ep 1/The Killing ep 4
Winter is coming... Well, not really spring is coming actually. In this DOUBLE VIDEO episode (recording much improved by the way) Terrie and Will continue our stroll thru dreary and grief stricken Seattle. Then we press a button and land in a dreamy fantasy that is the continent of Westeros. Here...

Movie Bonfire on The Killing Episode 3
The experiment continues. Movie Bonfire is back this time with a VIDEO episode! Lori and Will are in Denver, Terrie is in Chicago and Micah and Bill are in Indiana. Oh, how the powers of the internet are so grand. Too bad episode three of The Killing is a bit of a let down in comparison to…

Movie Bonfire on Adjustment Bureau
MB is back! But the posting of this episode is really late because I am a slacker (Will). Movie Bonfire is excited to welcome a new movie burner, Johnny. Take note as he and will dissect this sci-fi love story. Terrie's crackily (she had a bad cold) voice chimes in every so often too. Check out…

Movie Bonfire on Walking Dead Episode 6
The last episode of season one...Oh my. In our liveliest Walking Dead podcast yet, Bonfire members, Brynn, Micah, Mark, Terrie, Will and Zach pretty much rip the writing of this finale episode to shreds. Is this show done? We hope not, but some of us have already given up. Hopefully Kirkman and...

Movie Bonfire on The Walking Dead Season 1, Episode 1
And now for something a little different... Movie Bonfire is back! In this episode we take a shot at the first episode of the new series on AMC, The Walking Dead. Closely based on the Comic Book series that shares its name, this series has a number of Hollywood heavyweights behind it. Written and...

Splice
Movie Bonfire is back once again. I just got through "splicing" our latest podcast episode and I think the end result may have come out just a tiny bit better than this unoriginal film. There is nothing new in this Frankenstein's monster rehash and it's hard to say exactly what our monster is a...

Inception
This one was fun. Terrie and Will pick apart the recent mindbender of a film, Inception. Terrie was bored while Will claims that this is the best film he has seen is his whole life. How is this possible? Spoiler alert. We talk about EVERYTHING in this puzzler. Check out the podcast

The Crazies
Can. You. Believe. It?!? Movie Bonfire is back in business. We've had a band member shake up, but all is good now. In honor of our resurrection, we take a look at one of the more recent zombie themed (but not undead) films from earlier this year. The Crazies is a remake of the 1973 George Romero...

Exorcism Episode 2: The Exorcist 2: The Heretic (1977)
After the success and massive critical praise earned by The Exorcist, the obvious sequel was produced four years later. The Exorcist 2: The Heretic attempts to rewrite the back story from the original, recasting Regan's possessor as the evil demon Pazuzu rather than Satan himself. With total...

Exorcism Episode 1: The Exorcist (1973)
The understood champion in the competition for "scariest movie of all time" is the first film we take on for our new Exorcism marathon, guaranteeing that the remaining films in this marathon will be anticlimactic. Though The Exorcist itself may be talked to death by various film scholars, movie...

Cronenberg Episode 7: Dead Ringers (1988)
For our final episode in the David Cronenberg marathon, we present the 1988 film Dead Ringers. Here Cronenberg adds his own spin on the true story of twin gynecologists found dead in their apartment in New York. Jeremy Irons plays both brothers and shows his acting chops (take a look at those…

Cronenberg Episode 6: The Fly (1986)
The Fly is what happens when Cronenberg gets his hands on a decent story and hires some decent actors. He's back in his element with all the technofear and cartoonish gore. All three of us liked this one and pretty much agree that it's a classic. Goldblum is awesome and the drug metaphor takes…

Cronenberg Episode 5: The Dead Zone (1983)
David Cronenberg alters his standard filmmaking model for a Stephen King adaptation. Like most Stephen King adaptations, The Dead Zone doesn't quite jibe as a film, though Christopher Walken is dead-on as Johnny Smith. For once we all mostly agree, or maybe it's just that Zach and Will agree and...

A MB Diatribe on Avatar and the State of Movie Theatres in General
In this episode, we started to talk about James Cameron's blockbuster Avatar (we're always there with your up-to-the-minute topics) but got sidetracked into a lengthy, and ultimately much more interesting, discussion on the pros and cons of going to a theatre to see a movie or watching it at…

Cronenberg Episode 4: Videodrome (1983)
In the year that one of the Movie Bonfire podcasters was born, David Cronenberg made this twisted indictment of television and media. As a sleazy cable channel executive James Woods is always looking for the next "hot" thing to broadcast to his viewers. When he stumbles upon a bootleg version of…

Cronenberg Episode 3: Scanners (1981)
Perhaps his most well-known cult classic, Scanners is when Cronenberg started really getting some attention for his films. Michael Ironside makes the film as Darryl Revok, a powerful scanner bent on world domination. As usual, we've got plenty to argue about during our conversation of this…

Cronenberg Episode 2: The Brood (1979)
In response to his own divorce, Cronenberg made this disturbing horror film about a man who tries to protect his daughter from a psychologically disturbed mother who can send monster children formed through her own rage out to do her violent bidding... pretty much how Cronenberg sees divorce. It...

Let the Cronenberg commence: Cronenberg Episode 1: Shivers (1975)
In David Cronenberg's first feature film, Shivers, a scientist develops an aphrodisiac/STD hybrid that infects the residents of an elite Canadian high-rise. This film sets the tone for much of Cronenberg's future work and highlights his use of extensive and disturbing gore effects. Though none of...

The Zombie Marathon Concludes: Fido
Bringing the (seemingly) longest bonfire marathon ever to its final resting place took longer than expected, but with the horror/comedy Fido - about a boy and his zombie - the Movie Bonfire trilogy wraps up nicely on a light-hearted comedic note... a light-hearted comedic note filled with…
