Last summer, something monumental happened. One of Uncuffed's founding producers, Greg Eskridge, came home after more than 30 years in prison. In this episode we’ll bring you back to that emotional day last summer when he walked out of the San Quentin gates, free at last. Our work in prisons is supported by the California Arts Council, the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, independent foundations, and donations from listeners like you.

Yeah, we get it, it’s about the film script called 7 Psychopaths, it’s not about 7 actual psychopaths. It’s about storytelling and the creative process and how we glorify violence and bad people in fiction, but we can’t help but feel a little cheated by the misleading title. To be fair, we only needed the 3 psychopaths anyways (well, 4 I guess, Tom Waits gets a pass too). We’re not quite sure how to feel about this Martin McDonagh unconventional comedy, we love the performances, but can’t help but find a few holes here and there.

Somehow most of the crew have never seen the film Ghost before and because of that their PKE meters (Podcaster’s Knowledge & Expectations) are all askew with readings of ‘corny romance’ and ‘silly 80’s nonsense’. Little do they know, they’ve discovered a bona fide classic. So come and listen to their discussion about: constant death fake-outs, screaming at cats, train-hobo-ghosts, ruining potential artistic masterpieces for a bit of muddy sexy time, one of the weirdest lesbian workarounds ever and general amazement at Rich’s mezzanine knowledge. https://ia600607.us.archive.org/21/items/ghost_202503/Ghost.mp3…
Most people think of the 90’s horror movement when they think of Japanese horror, so we wanted to go back to it’s roots and see what influenced it. Onibaba is a small scale, vaguely supernatural drama that relies more on the bleakness of war, poverty and human nature to convey it’s horror rather than monsters and spirits. Come and listen to our discussion where: one of us tries to deny the supernatural element, everyone appreciates the aggressive jazz, someone gets a lot less chauvinism than they expect and we perhaps get our own podcast ghost. https://ia800806.us.archive.org/35/items/onibaba_202502/Onibaba.mp3…
“So, I have this animatronic T-rex laying around, for some reason, do you want to make a film with it? No, there’s no script and no money and you have a few weeks to do it. Whatd’ya say?” This was the proposition that director Stewart Raffill received one day in 1994 and you can’t say the man doesn’t meet a challenge. Tammy and the T-Rex is probably the biggest and best ‘backyard’ movie ever made, but where does this silly, weird and perplexing movie rank on the overall film scale? Tune in to find out now! https://ia600808.us.archive.org/28/items/tammy-and-the-trex/Tammy%20and%20the%20TRex.mp3…
We’ve all watched stoner comedies before here at SFFCH and know that they can range from endearingly stupid to utter dreck, so where does 2007’s Smiley Face fall on the filmic weed-ometer? Come and listen to us find out in our discussion about: well needed female stoner representation, long overdue Anna Faris appreciation, whether we would want our lives narrated by Roscoe Lee Browne, random Carrot Top sightings and trying to figure out if there was more to destroying the Communist Manifesto at the end (probably not). https://ia600608.us.archive.org/2/items/smiley-face_202502/Smiley%20Face.mp3…
We all wanted to watch some non-Star Wars George Lucas this week. Turns out, there wasn’t really much choice so here’s THX 1138, a film that everyone has misspelled at some point in their lives. It seems he always had the imagination to get alot out of a small budget and remains a surprisngly influencial artist, but really should stop remastering his old stuff. Up for discussion this time: vending machine therapy, futuristic fleshlights, Robert Duvall breakdancing and a few more references to Waiting For Godot than this film probably deserves. https://ia800804.us.archive.org/17/items/thx-1138_202501/THX%201138.mp3…
The thought of school reunions makes the crew all nostalgic for their old school days this week as they tackle Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion, the female answer to those ‘two dumb men do dumb things’ films from the 90’s. They came in with expectations of ‘silly blonde comedy’ and leave with ‘quietly funny and endearingly odd’ in a discussion about: perfectly executed dream sequences, Handsome Squidward Alan Cummings, pretend sex scenes, post-it notes, business women and one of the best dance sequences ever. https://ia802309.us.archive.org/16/items/romy-and-micheles-high-school-reunion/Romy%20and%20Michele%27s%20High%20School%20Reunion.mp3…
Years ago, The Internet decided that The Flintstones was a terrible film. We all bought into it here at Spoiler Filled and believed it, so there was little enthusiasm when it came to watching it. However, we soon came a shocking conclusion: it’s fine. For a film whose premise is essentially “Stuff, but it’s stone”, it is heightened by it’s attention to detail, fun practical effects and commited actors. It still has that God awful fat pig waste disposer though, so… https://ia800607.us.archive.org/9/items/the-flintstones_202501/The%20Flintstones.mp3…
It’s taken us a while, but we finally realised that Denzel Washington is pretty good at this acting business. We’ve also got some due love to give for Elias Koteas and John Goodman too, even if Fallen has a crippling case of ‘Good Idea, Bad Execution’. Come and listen to us: debate demon possession rules, develop an aversion to James Gandolfini’s facial hair and try to comprehend the extreme subtlety of a mass murdering monster eating cereal. https://ia601208.us.archive.org/10/items/fallen_202412/Fallen.mp3…
Happy Merry Time, one and all! It’s time for our festive filmic feature and where better to look for a Christmas movie than Japan! (It was bound to happen on this podcast eventually) And what better themes to tackle than homelessness, poverty, abandonment and suicide! But don’t worry dear listener, this film is somehow one of the funniest, most joyful and wholesome Christmas movies out there,whilst never holding back on it’s harrowing depiction of Wintertime on the Japanese streets. https://ia800606.us.archive.org/33/items/tokyo-godfathers_202412/Tokyo%20Godfathers.mp3…
It’s time to hunker down and watch some Michael Shannon this week as we dig into Take Shelter from 2011. It was brought to our attention as many consider it to contain one of Shannon’s best performances on screen and, by God, we do love a Michael Shannon performance here at Spoiler Filled, how could we resist?! Our love for Shannon remains undiminished, but we are a little more divided about the successfulness of the film as a whole. Is it a poignant study of mental illness and societal foreboding or a messy, often nonsensical re-imagining of Noah’s Ark? Tune in to find out our decision. https://ia801200.us.archive.org/14/items/take-shelter/Take%20Shelter.mp3…
Happy Halloween! To celebrate spooky season the Spoiler Filled gang have rummaged in the fiery pits of hell and found Pet Sematary 2. Listen now as we experience a complete personality switch where Rich and Abi love a trashy horror movie and Ant and Jamie think it’s a bit silly actually. Unbelievable scenes. https://ia800503.us.archive.org/22/items/pet-sematary-2/Pet%20Sematary%202.mp3…
After watching the film Shampoo we have learned one great lesson about the hairdressing business: all you have to do to be considered successful is sleep with all your clients and then they won’t notice that your only trick is waving a hairdryer vaguely in the direction of their heads. Shampoo claims to be a satire of American society and sexual politics, with something to do with Richard Nixon in there, but we’re not sure what to make of this 70’s dramedy. https://ia600800.us.archive.org/10/items/shampoo_202409/Shampoo.mp3…
We get a backdoor George Miller connection this week with Dead Calm. Produced by Miller’s company, it is a film about a married couple trying to forget their child died by going on a boating trip in the Pacific and running into a creepy Billy Zane on a boat full of dead people. Nothing too suspicious here, then. Billy Zane on a boat…nope, doesn’t ring a bell. Up for discussion this week: asparagus dreams, being kinda happy they killed the dog for a change, that baby-through-the-windshield scene and just general appreciation for our boy Billy. https://ia803406.us.archive.org/22/items/dead-calm/Dead%20Calm.mp3…
George Miller is… unfathomable, we’re going with unfathomable. He builds his career making apocalyptic action mayhem with all the Mad Max films and then suddenly pivots to making kids films involving animals, be they pigs or penguins. Not content with the original, fairly conventional Babe, Miller steps in as director for the sequel Babe: Pig In The City and just lets the weirdness flow. Did it turn out to be a wondrous family-orientated romp or a dark and harrowing nightmare bordering on animal cruelty? Tune in to find out. https://ia904600.us.archive.org/34/items/babe-pig-in-the-city/Babe%20Pig%20in%20the%20City.mp3…
We’re all armed with our barrel scrapers this time as we scoop Drop Dead Fred out of the cinematic cask, but we’re mildly surprised it’s not as far down there as we all had expected. Turns out it’s not just fresh dogshit smeared on new carpet and more like dried bogies smeared across your face (or, at least, so the majority decides)! We invite you to make up your own minds in this cult comedy that involves: assaulting violinists, sinking your best friends house, Rik Mayall turned up to 11, dusty vagina jokes and one of the lamest dream sequences ever. https://ia902204.us.archive.org/12/items/drop-dead-fred_202409/Drop%20Dead%20Fred.mp3…
