Cosmic Motion is a weekly audio program wherein Writer/Director/Editor William Boodell and Multimedia Editor Colin Dixon discuss films from a filmmaking point-of-view. They often invite other filmmakers to participate in the discussion.
Join them as they traverse the cinematic cosmos in search of gems both established and hidden.
Rex O’Herlihan (Tom Berenger) knows how to rescue poor townsfolk from wealthy bad guys. In this self-aware version of an old Western serial, Rex will befriend the town drunk, Pete (G.W. Bailey) have to square up against the nefarious, greedy antics of Colonel Ticonderoga (Andy Griffith). He’ll appear even more befuddled by the advances of prostitute Miss Tracy (Marilu Henner) and Ticonderoga’s daughter, Miss Ticonderoga (Sela Ward). Will Rex inevitably prevail over the forces of bad?
Join Bill and Colin as they explore this lukewarm Western comedy made by Writer/Director Hugh Wilson immediately following his mega success with POLICE ACADEMY (1984).

Now they need blood to slow their fates of becoming zombies. Will our sisters and their new trucker friend (Robert Beltran) survive the end of the world?
