Episode 36: Star Trek Nemesis (2002)

Episode 31: Batman Returns (1992)
Na na na na na na na na BATMAN!!!!!! In this 1992 classic burton gothic interpretation of the Dark Knight we are in awe of Danny DeVito's horrifying and gruesome Penguin and Michelle Pfeiffer's slinky, sexy and deadly Catwoman....while this is one of our favourite portrayals of the caped crusader...
-
Episode 30: Iron Man (2008)
This episode is called Iron Man but be warned we got a little silver screamered away and we cover a load of the MCU and various parts of the filmography - we knew we'd get a little carried away this season and can you blame us!! This blockbuster ushered in a new era of comic book movie magic and…

Episode 29: Wonder Woman (2017)
We blast off into Super Hero season with some Glamazonian power from Gal Gadot and Chris Pine. This exceptionally well made Super Hero Smash deals with some challenging topics but remains fun, light hearted and entertaining. Respectful of the comic books, it becomes its own interpretation of how...

Episode 27: Halloween 3 - Season of the Witch (1982)
Here is a festive film for Christmas 2020 :D This clunker was a nice change from all the great cinema we've watched over the last number of weeks. Sometimes a change is good, other times you have to watch Halloween 3! Our guest co-host Fearghal from the Feckin-Checkin joined us to help dissect…
more -
Episode 26: The Witches (2020)
After a brief spell away (lark), we're back with our second Season of The Witch episode - 2020's The Witches. We do a bit of "compare and contrasting" with the book and the 1990 classic; Anjelica vs Anne/Octavia vs Mai, long for a Witches expanded universe (just what exactly are the witches long...
-
Episode 25: Hocus Pocus (1993)
In perfect time for Halloween in this weird 2020 world we live in, we try and lift your spirits with this fabulously camp and hilariously magical magnificent triumph - Bette Midler, Kathy Najimy and Sarah Jessica Parker are living their best undead lives in this Disney classic. **Musical…
more -
Episode 24: Lady and the Tramp (1955)
He's a tramp but we love him! This howl of a time is a Disney classic with an endearing romance and some slightly...ahem...problematic portrayals of certain cultures - this episode is full of debate, laughs, a wonky synopsis (apparently caused by Conor) and some pro tips on responsible dog...
-
Episode 23: Brave (2012)
Our third episode of Disney Season sees us travel to the Scottish Highlands of Brave. We didn't go solo though, we were joined by one old friend-Dairíona, and one very very new friend-Fódhla, who at 6 weeks old must be one of the youngest podcasters ever, right? Feminist masterpiece or trope…

Episode 22: Fantasia (1940)
We deep dive into golden age Disney this week with our third guest star Dave! We explore the 1940s in depth with a little bit of sorcery finishing with our main event - Fantasia. This unusual combination of imagination, animation and symphony brings a new twist to the Silver Screamer experience :D
-
Episode 21: The Little Mermaid (1989)
Come be part of our world this week as we are schooled on the Little Mermaid - from start to fin, this filled us with nostalgic warmth and had us singing along to some of the best music Disney has every produced. Don't be a poor unfortunate sole - treat yourself! :D
-
Episode 20: A Fish Called Wanda (1988)
A sharp and on point classic comedy caper showing the best of Jamie Lee Curtis and John Cleese - this finale of our Heist series was a great send off to this genre - Paul finds his thesis statement a difficult one to stomach this week and we find out what our next genre is going to be! Enjoy
-
Episode 19: Sneakers (1992)
This week our good friend Ashwin dropped by for some sneaky podcasting. This crazy caper saw some of the top names in old Hollywood unite to bring us an intriguing, mysterious and sometimes comedic heist - with some dodgy bits thrown in - enjoy!
-
Episode 18: Ocean's Eleven (2001)
Suave, cool and a handsome bunch of lads - it could do with a femme fatale or two! This early 2000s exciting caper ticks a lot of boxes for us, but misses the mark in a few areas leaving it at a luke warm place on our list!
-
Episode 17: Widows (2018)
Three widows inherit a debt thanks to their dead gangster husbands and decide to take on the heist of a lifetime! This classic remake of an old TV show has a star studded cast and was underrated at the time (in our not so humble opinion!)
-
Episode 16: You're Next (2011)
After a particularly odd week of pandemic plus US revolution, we take some time to discuss modern day politics, leadership, equality.....oh yeah and a slash-tastic movie with some interesting head blendering twists! Enjoy - #BLM
-
Episode 15: Scream (1996)
Ode to a slasher movie! This meta take on the slasher genre gave us nostalgia for our teenage years. A "who done it" with more bodies than your local morgue, Scream fits nicely into our list - We'll Be Right Back!!
-
Episode 14: A Nightmare On Elm Street (1984)
Freddy Got Fingered? Sorry wrong flick. While most horrors have you staying awake so the boogeyman or Dracula doesn't get you when you're asleep, this had us staying awake so we wouldn't get slashed in our dreams! Another coffee? Yes please!
-
Episode 13: Halloween (1978)
Strip back expensive lighting, costumes, make up and what are you left with...only The Shape...intro-ed with that iconic music, this suspenseful stalking nightmare led to many sleepless nights - the original slasher stands the test of time and paved the way for generations of this genre to come!...
-
Episode 12 Some Like It Hot! (1959)
FREEESH!! Drag up your life while watching Marylin Monroe sparkle on the silver screen opposite two titans of acting! This campy classic Hollywood farce was a progressive period piece when it was made, while staying true to its time - laughs, winks and gets ya to think.... PS I wanna be loved by...
-
Episode 11 Esio Trot (2015)
A charming, light made-for-tv movie with some stars enjoying an easy breezy acting gig. This Roald Dahl classic brought to life by Ireland's Dearbhla Walsh didn't wow us but left us with a warm fuzzy feeling of hope inside - despite some dubious attempts at courting by Dustin Hoffman! :D
-
Episode 10 Sex And The City (2008)
This enjoyable piece of fluff had tears, laughs and some groans too. A story of self discovery and friendship overcoming some average and reasonable odds :P
-
Episode 9 Muriel's Wedding (1994)
We're beautiful!! This Ozzie RomCom had us laughing, crying and so much more - not quite topping our list, it's still worth a watch!
-
Episode 8 Fiddler On The Roof (1971)
TRADITION!!!!! This musical had us fighting over top place in our musical reviews but our wonderful guest podcaster Yvonne was there to help us out! L’Chaim!
-
Episode 7 Les Miserables (2012)
Stylish, heartbreaking, endearing, traumatizing, hopeful and a banging score – what more do you want!?
-
Episode 6 Nine (2009)
This star studded adaptation tries to amuse us with singing, dancing, drama and comedy – unfortunately the efforts of these world class actors fails to hit the mark due to a meandering, nonsensical script following a misogynistic film director who, by the end, you don’t really care about. *Silver...
-
Episode 5 Oliver! (1968)
We consider ourselves one lucky podcast to have included this movie in our Musicals genre. Excellent acting, great music, lots of laughs and tears. Oom pah pah, Oom pah pah give it a go!
-
Episode 4 Escape From New York (1981)
From the dark mind of John Carpenter comes this classic action/adventure movie. In a dystopian future all criminals are put on the island of Manhattan – escape is only by death – when Air Force One gets shot down and lands on Manhattan, one man (an ex military turned convict guy with a serious...
-

-
Episode 1 - Donnie Darko (2001)
A cult classic fave from the early naughties - it's weird but wonderful and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did! Also...Jake Gyllenhaal - yaaaaaaaas!
-
Episode 2 - Harold & Maude (1971)
A heartwarming tale of the ultimate cougar and her love interest who's looking for something more from life. This had us in tears at a few points and is very modern despite it being over 40 years old! Looooove it!
