Episodes

Ep. 88 - "The Worst Person In The World" (2021)
Our guest today is David Ridker, a filmmaker originally from the D.C. area. The fellas deep dive into a film that Chad brought along: "The Worst Person In The World", from 2021 - a film with a lot to say - about what? Well, we try to find out. This is another episode of THE HELL WITH THIS - where...
-
Ep. 87 - "One Cut of The Dead" (2017)
Mark said not to post the trailer for this week's movie (mid-podcast), but unless you're fluent in Japanese, you won't understand it anyway. That should say just about everything you need to know about this episode. That, and we never spoil a movie in the first half of the podcasts - sooooo, Mark...
-
Ep. 86 - "Watcher" (2022)
The boys are back! 86 episodes deep and our first episode of 2023. The WGA & SAG strikes appear to be wrapping up and work should resume again soon in Hollywood. We discuss AI and all the fun stuff that everyone's been arguing about - before jumping into "Watcher", a fantastic little indie from...
-
Ep. 85 - "Hereditary" (2018)
Mark and Chad return with a modern horror classic, "Hereditary" - a film Chad's never seen. Our first episode back in some time finds the fellas mid-break between jobs, catching up and talking exhaustion in the film industry, amongst other... things. Performers of note: Toni Collette, Alex Wolff,...
-
Ep. 84 - "Booksmart" (2019)
One of these days Mark and Chad will start an episode by talking about something that's in line with the week's chosen movie. This is not one of those episodes. Recorded on the 20th anniversary of 9/11, the fellas dive into all sorts of uplifting topics, such as where they were on 9/11, or should...
-
Ep. 83 - "Explorers" (1985)
If only the past lived up to the memory of it. Some movies exceed our expectations when we revisit them for the first time in years - some don't. In Chad's case, he's never seen the 1985 film "Explorers", even though he fit the age demographic for it, at the time. How will it hold up now that…
more -
Ep. 82 - "Like Crazy" (2011)
Mark and Chad reunite to bring focus back to indie filmmaking in its most intimate form: handheld and off-the-cuff. 2011's "Like Crazy" brought us tremendous performances from a new generation of actors - Anton Yelchin, Felicity Jones, and Jennifer Lawrence. If this movie disappeared from view,...
-
Ep. 81 - "Road Games" (1981)
We're back! Did we miss anything? Mark and Chad are right back into the thick of it, putting the 1981 road movie "Road Games" under the spotlight for a quick look. The boys catch up, talk life, and discuss this week's film (which Chad has never heard of, until now). Welcome back! Performers of...
-
Ep. 80 - "Dirty Pretty Things" (2002)
What a difference a month can make, eh? Today's episode was recorded on Oscar Sunday, which couldn't be more apparent than now, given all the happenings 'round ol' planet Earth. That said, now you've got no excuse to hunker down and watch this week's movie, 2002's seemingly forgotten "Dirty…
more -
Ep. 79 - "Paris, Texas" (1984)
This episode has been a long time coming. Returning guest Steve Phelan and co-host Chad Peter have been waiting to force fellow co-host Mark Heiliger into watching "Paris, Texas" for a good, long while now - and the time has come to do so. Unfortunately, or fortunately (if you're into this sort…
more -
Ep. 78 - "Bumblebee" (2018)
Oh ho ho, boy oh boy we bet you never saw this one coming. Chad and Mark invite guest (and actress) Kat Schmidt onto the podcast to help explain her love of the Transformers movie franchise, or specifically - 2018's "BUMBLEBEE". They deep dive into the WHY and WHAT, going so far as to attempt to...
-
Ep. 77 - "Ready or Not" (2019)
Fasten your seatbelts, ladies and gentlemen, because we're going back - WAY BACK - to another decade. All the way back to... 2019, for a surprisingly fun soon-to-be-cult film called "Ready or Not". This might be on the borderline for deeming it "underrated" - after all, it made its money back and...
-
Ep. 76 - "Anguish" (1987)
Revisiting the podcast for the first time since "Lost Highway", guest Ryan Wick drops another batshit crazy movie upon the ears (and especially eyes) of co-host Mark. The rabbit hole they go down is so deep, not even Mark will make it out alive. "Anguish" has all but disappeared from public view,...
-
Ep. 75 - "Under The Silver Lake" (2018)
Is the sophomore slump a real thing? Can our 75th episode count as a sophomore effort? Mark and Chad devolve back into opening an episode with a quick discussion about STAR WARS - only they could derail their own podcast by discussing a topic that has nothing to do with their choice of "movie of...
-
Ep. 74 - "Tremors II: Aftershocks" (1996)
Tremors is one of those sci-fi(?) franchises that just seems to keep on going... and going... and going... and... really we're not sure why, exactly. Or at least Chad doesn't. Mark, on the other hand, proudly brought Tremors 2: AFTERSHOCKS for this week's movie for the team to view & discuss. Are...
-
Ep. 73 - "Sing Street" (2016)
Sneaking out of Ireland in 2016, "Sing Street" made it across the pond to America and had a relatively decent success, considering most movies of a similar nature never reach much of an audience in America with the mass of content blasted through our eyeballs these days. Still, this movie was...
-
Ep. 72 - "Cutter's Way" (1981)
John Heard. The man. The myth. The le... wait, who? You'd recognize him from "Home Alone" as Kevin's dad, OR maybe you're one of the five people that saw "Cutter's Way" back in 1981 when it opened for United Artists' "art film" division "United Artists Classics". Heard leads the way here with a...
-
Ep. 71 - "The English Patient" (1996)
Okay, sure - this week's movie isn't exactly "underrated", considering it won ALL THE OSCARS in 1996, but hey - it still seems to have slipped under most peoples' radars, so here we are. Chad and Mark are back (and so very rusty at this whole podcasting thing), but gosh-darnit - they're gonna sit...
-
Ep. 70 - "The Hudsucker Proxy" (1994)
A podcast, you know, for kids! And you. The Hell With This(!) is back for a fun episode with guests Jake Lloyd and Alexandra Hoey (aka fellow podcasters on the Dragon Wagon Radio network). It's shocking, but neither Jake nor Alexandra have seen the Coen Brothers' CLASSIC film "The Hudsucker…
more -
Ep. 69 - "Girls" (2012-2017)
Ep. 69 - "Girls" (2012-2017) Dogs and cats. LIVING TOGETHER. MASS HYSTERIA. That's right - our movie podcast is doing something strange this week. We're talking about a TELEVISION SHOW. You've heard of those, right? After all, we're supposedly in the "Golden Age" of TV right now - so it's time we...
-
Ep. 68 - "The Ice Pirates" (1984)
Howdy! Remember us? No? Well, shucks. Welcome back to another episode of THE HELL WITH THIS. Your hosts Mark and Chad have been briefly reunited to bring you a, uhm, podcast… where we talk about… things and stuff. This week's "things and stuff" is an audience requested number, "The Ice Pirates"…
more -
Ep. 67 - "20th Century Women" (2016)
We're back for the new year! 2019! Episode 67. Cruising right along. This week Chad and guest Matt "Lank" Hingstman muse about their holiday vacations and Matt's movie selection, the wonderful Mike Mills film, "20th Century Women" from 2016. Performers of note: Annette Bening, Elle Fanning, Greta...
-
Ep. 66 - "American Movie" (1999)
This week's movie is a legitimate classic - a 1999 documentary entitled "American Movie". We're digging it up because maybe the world's forgotten it, or maybe you're just one of those folks who missed it at the time. In any case, it's a goddamned treasure - and you should see it. Performers of...
-
Ep. 65 - "I Origins" (2014)
This week Mark and Chad tackle a 2014 film that seemingly snuck right by audiences. What we can say is this: if you haven't seen the trailer for the movie: don't. The trailers stupidly spoil the film but, fortunately, Mark and Chad went in blind (to a movie about mapping the human eye... surely...
-
Ep. 64 - "House On Haunted Hill" (1999)
We made the mistake of picking a movie with an easily mistaken title. Is it "Haunting of Hill House"? Or "House on Haunted Hill"? We're not entirely sure, either, but this week we've chosen ONE of those to peruse and meander on. To make matters worse, Mark and Chad can't recall any of the names...
-
Ep. 63 - "Mandy" (2018)
Chad is back - just in time to take a swim in the pool of weird, man. This week the boys check out the 2018 film "Mandy", starring Nicolas Cage from a director that both Mark and Chad agree is one to keep an eye on in the coming years (Panos Cosmatos). Performers of note: Nicolas Cage, Andrea...
-
Ep. 62 - "Swiss Army Man" (2016)
Podcasting guru Jake Lloyd (aka our corporate overlord) sits in with our only useful co-host (aka Mark Alan Heiliger - not to be confused with Mark Alan Highlander). The two of them combine their efforts to pull this week's movie out of a hat (actually). That movie just so happened to be 2016's...
-
Ep. 61 - "Master of the Flying Guillotine" (1976)
Mark and first-time guest Chris Tonick wax on about their past days of working together, their combined love of "The House with a Clock in Its Walls" (the book and the movie, respectively) and their enjoyment of this week's insane film: "Master of the Flying Guillotine". Chad, on the other hand…
more -
Ep. 60 - "Lost Highway" (1997)
We're EXCITED AF to release a new episode. We're slightly less excited that it's our LONGEST EPISODE EVER, but maybe you just want to spend more time with us. This week Mark sits down with guest Ryan Wick to discuss the inner workings of David Lynch's "Lost Highway" - one of Lynch's less than...
-
Ep. 59 - "Blade of the Immortal" (2017)
Everyone has a Japanese anime/manga phase, right? Maybe? No? Fine, whatever, but we did - at some point - we, as in, Mr. Mark Alan Heiliger, Chad Philip Peter and guest Matt "Lank" Hingstman. The fellas check out a live action film adaptation of one of Chad's favorite Japanese comic books, "BLADE...
-
Ep. 58 - "*batteries not included" (1987)
Guest Matt "Lank" Hingstman brings an old favorite of his, "*batteries not included" (sic), and forces Mark and Chad to watch it while at gunpoint. A small scuffle promptly followed, the dust settled, and Jessica Tandy was all that remained. Or not. Maybe none of this happened. Maybe you don't...
-
Ep. 57 - "Phoebe In Wonderland" (2008)
Today the guys tackle a... children's film? Or is this a movie for parents? We can't decide. The movie is 2008's "Phoebe In Wonderland", starring Elle Fanning in one of the more incredible child actor performances possibly ever. Mark and Chad also talk "SOLO"... if you're into that sort of thing....
-
Ep. 56 - "Ace In The Hole" (1951)
Kirk Douglas will live forever. No, seriously, he's 101 and still putting on one-man shows in Los Angeles. But 67 years ago he was busy starring in "Ace In The Hole", a noir(ish) morality tale from director Billy Wilder. Mark claims this is one of his top films "of all time", and naturally Chad's...
-
Ep. 55 - "The Void" (2016)
Chad and Mark are back! The guys discuss work-life balance, wondering what it is, and what it means to be a creative person with no time to be creative. They also flip the script with Chad bringing a movie he's never seen - yet Mark had. This week's film is a 2016 micro-budget indie called "The...
-
Ep. 54 - "The Last Of Sheila" (1973)
Woof - Mark and Chad have been BUSY with work, but they managed to carve out a little time for some movie lovin'. Which movie exactly? Chad has no clue. It's Mark's pick this week, and with him he brings the 1973 murder mystery, "The Last Of Sheila". Performers of note: Richard Benjamin, Dyan...
-
Ep. 53 - "American Teen" (2008)
It took us 53 episodes to finally tackle a documentary! 53!!! So join Mark and Chad as they take a gander at a mostly forgotten documentary from 2008, "American Teen". They guys discuss general ethics surrounding what it means to be a documentarian - how much should a crew get involved with its...
-
Ep. 52 - "Lord of Illusions" (1995)
Mark's movie pick for the week comes from the disturbed mind of Clive Barker. "Lord of Illusions" is a movie that seemingly never left obscurity - so of course we're here to dig it up! Chad's never seen it, so the guys sit for a minute to watch what, apparently, is the Director's Cut of the film...
-
Ep. 51 - "Apollo 13" (1995)
Sweet Jesus, this week's movie might be the smallest, most unheard-of indie film you've absolutely never heard of. Made with cardboard set pieces and definitely shot on an iPhone, Mark and guest Brian Finifter try to make sense of 1995's indie darling: APOLLO 13. Performers of note: Tom Hanks…
more -
Ep. 50 - "Dredd" (2012)
It's a crowded house for our 50th episode. Steve Phelan joins Mark and Chad to review 2012's cult hit(?) "Dredd" (originally titled "Dredd 3D", but that's a dumb title). There's not much to discuss - Chad and Mark love this movie. Steve hasn't seen it. Performers of note: Karl Urban, Olivia...
-
Ep. 49 - "Outlander" (2008)
Not to be confused with the extremely popular TV show of the same name, 2008's "Outlander" film came and went with a whimper. Vikings vs. space aliens? Uhh, sure - we'll be your guinea pigs! Mark and Chad take a chance on the film, in the hopes that it is as good as some people hint. Performers…
more -
Ep. 48 - "Halloween III - Season of the Witch" (1982)
Suddenly rocking a sweet new "The Hell With This" theme song by the amazing Zen Zenith, Chad and Mark are back with some early 80's Halloween fare. It's Mark's choice this week, but neither of the guys have seen "Halloween III - Season of the Witch". The guys also chat about cars, marriage and…
more -
Ep. 47 - "Scarecrow" (1973)
Steve Phelan sits in for an absent Chad on a deep dive back to 1973's "Scarecrow", starring Gene Hackman (aww, we miss him) and Al Pacino. The boys also go on a huge tangent about Star Wars, which seems to be a theme lately.
-
Ep. 46 – "Wings of Desire" (1987)
Dreams do come true. Eventually. We welcome ourselves back from an impromptu holiday vacation, which we don't even refer to in the show, because this episode was recorded before Christmas 2017 (as is the next episode as well). Ahem. Where do we begin with this week's exploration into 1987's Wings...
-
Ep. 45 – "Brick" (2005)
Hey, unless you're living under a rock, you might have heard it's Star Wars week. To celebrate the coming-of-age of The Last Jedi's director, Rian Johnson, Mark and Chad are here to celebrate the earliest work of the man, 2005's acclaimed indie Brick. Performers of note: Joseph Gordon-Levitt…
more -
Ep. 44 – "Top Secret!" (1984)
Falling in line with the Zucker Brothers' history of slapstick comedy, "Top Secret!" is no exception to the rule. It's a movie that eluded Chad for the duration of its existence… Yet, somehow, it's one of Mark's treasured favorites (he gives it a 9 out of 10 star rating). The boys sit back, relax...
-
Ep. 43 – "Three Colors: Red" (1994)
The guys deep dive back into the world of European art-house cinema, again looking back to the works of director Krzysztof Kieslowski (we first tackled his "The Double Life of Veronique" in the 4th episode of this podcast!)). "Three Colors: Red" falls within Chad's top-10 favorite films OF ALL...
-
Ep. 42 – "The Punisher" (2004)
This is as good a week as any to talk about 2004's rendition of "The Punisher", considering Netflix just released their own version of "The Punisher" TV series last week. This week, Mark presents the movie to Chad, whom has never seen ANY of the Punisher installments over the years. The two of…
more -
Ep. 41 – "Legend" (1985)
Mark and guest Ashley Long (sans Chad, was out of town) take a look at Ridley Scott's much maligned fantasy epic, "Legend" (The Director's Cut, specifically). Ashley stews of fond memories of the film, while Mark doesn't quite feel it was "directed by a human being". Performers of note: Tom…
more -
Ep. 40 – "One Dark Night" (1982)
Mark finally gets his Halloween wish – he and Chad tackle a movie that at least falls into the horror film genre this time. "One Dark Night" seems to have disappeared from public view since it's release in 1982. How we stumbled across it, only Chad knows (he totally judged the blu-ray by its...
-
Ep. 39 – "Blade Runner 2049" (2017)
Happy Halloween! Mark wanted to do a movie that actually fit the mold of Halloween for the holiday, but Chad was a grump and they stuck with the original plan. This time we're trying something a little new (for us) – we're doing a podcast for a movie that's still in theaters! Yes, we (mostly)…
