S5E7 The PhilenApocalypse IV: Doomsday w/ The People's Joker (2022) & Sky High (2005)
The PhilenApocalypse is back and this time cannabis comic Ngaio Bealum is here to witness it! This year Philena takes a swipe at super heroes just as their box office fortunes are starting to wane. Her first pick puts the trans in transgressive as trans femme comedian Vera Drew violates all manner of copyrights with THE PEOPLE'S JOKER (2022), a stinging satire of Batman and stand-up comedy wrapped in a surprisingly personal coming-of-age tale. It'll all make sense if you just watch it on Tubi, but not before getting your strain recs from Ngaio and Philena. </p> And then Philena goes a little more mainstream with SKY HIGH (2005), a live-action Disney comedy about a high school for superheroes that is floating in the clouds. Philena thought this was something she dreamed up until rediscovering it recently. It does exist! The movie has one of the most loaded casts ever with Kurt Russell, Kelly Preston, Bruce Campbell (!), Lynda Carter (!!), Chloris Leachman (!!!), Mary Elizabeth Winstead + Dave Foley and Kevin McDonald from "The Kids in the Hall"!!! Even with Philena controlling the horizontal and the vertical, she has to endure Ngaio and Bob descending into fanboy talk as they go way too deep into Legion of Super Heroes lore for a while, but Philena was fascinated by the tragic tale of Triplicate Girl and Duo Damsel at least. SKY HIGH is streaming on Disney+. </p> Philena, Ngaio and Bob also discuss the zero-budget hit horror movies BACK ROOMS and OBSESSION. Are the Zoomer YouTubers taking over Hollywood, or is everyone is just sick of super heroes and STAR WARS??? The OMFYS trio entertain and inform as they grasp at answers. </P> You can now hear Ngaio on CROSS-POLINATION, a 2-hour showcase of great music and comedy every Tuesday from 10am to Noon on Sacramento's KUTZ 95.7 FM. You can listen on the web at https://www.kutzfm.org. </P> Hosts: Philena Franklin & Bob Calhoun. Cory Sklar & Greg Franklin are on assignment. </P> Much love to Rosemary Picado, Tigger Franklin and Buddy Sklar. </P> Old Movies for Young Stoners and PhielnApocalypse themes courtesy of Chaki, the Funk Wizard. </P> "Heaven and Earth" by Jeremy Black, "Jacoby" by Schwartz, and "Saving the World" by Aaron Kenny courtesy of YouTube Audio Library. </P> Elephant Trumpets Growls.flac by D.jones -- https://freesound.org/s/527845/ -- License: Creative Commons 0 </P> Next episode: Greek Odysseys with JASON AND THE ARGONAUTS (1963) and some crappy Italian Hercules movie.

S5E6 Grave Robbers from Hollywood w/ Plan 9 from Outer Space (1958)
They are bringing Val Kilmer back from the grave using AI to star in a crappy western, but Ed Wood brought Bela Lugosi back to life with some unused footage and an unconvincing double way back in the 50s! Without the use of computers even! The pending wave of AI movie star resurrections has Philena and Bob talking PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE (1958) in this emergency mini-episode mostly because Bob had a rant about it and didn't want it to go to waste. Philena and Bob also discuss the diva-on-diva beef between VAMPIRA and ELVIRA! Why can't we all just get along? Plus lots of Criswell, Tor Johnson and flying saucers over Hollywood! CAN YOU PROVE IT DIDN'T HAPPEN??? </p> We also discuss the other dead movie star resurrections, such as GAME OF DEATH (1978), THE CROW (1994) and GLADIATOR (2000). And Philena talks about her near appearance in INCREDIBLY STRANGE WRESTLING before she was even born!!! </p> NEXT EPISODE: It's THE PHILENAPOCALYPSE: ENDGAME with THE PEOPLE'S JOKER (2024) and THE ADVENTURES OF SHARK BOY AND LAVA GIRL (2005). With special guest Ngaio Bealum, the Dank Diplomat. Subscribe so you don't miss it! </p> Hosts: Bob Calhoun and Philena Franklin.

S5E5 Cory's Punk ep. feat. Marc Edward Heuck w/ ..Fabulous Stains (82) & Forbidden Zone (80)
Cory usually brings the funk, but today he's got the punk with a pair of movies that warped his young mind way back in the 80s. And he's also brining along film historian and commentary track superstar Marc Edward Heuck in an episode we call CORY'S PUNK ROCK AND SHOCK TIL YOU DROP! (Or at least that's what Bob called it when he hyped it in our last episode.) </p> Cory's first pick is LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THE FABULOUS STAINS (1982--kinda), a movie most of us discovered on USA Network's glorious NIGHT FLIGHT in the mid-80s. This movie about a defiant girl punk band getting out of their shitty mill town inspired L7 and Bikini Kill to start bands, and even Jon Bon Jovi cites it as an influence. JBJ notwithstanding, our world would be a crappier place without it. Marc contributed two commentary tracks to the excellent new Fun City Editions 4K UHD and Blu-ray release so he will tell you all about the movie that Paramount could not keep down. </p> Then, the Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo capture their crazed stage show in the surreal PHANTOM ZONE (1980). And if that wasn't enough, they added Hervé Villechaize and Susan Tyrrell as the king and queen to make it even weirder. Streaming on Roku, Tubi, Plex and more. </p> In the intro segment, Marc tells us what it's like to record commentary tracks, Bob talks about the wonders of digital broadcast with all the MeTVs there, and Cory and Philena extol the virtues of low-budget TV jingles. </p> Get the new Fun City Edition FABULOUS STAINS disc at https://www.funcityeditions.com/shop/p/fabulousstainsslipbox </p> Marc Edward Heuck has been kicked off of Twitter so follow him on Bluesky at https://bsky.app/profile/meheuck.bsky.social </p> Hosts: Cory Sklar, Philena Franklin and Bob Calhoun. Greg is on assignment. </p> OMFYS Theme Song and "Get in Line" courtesy of Chaki the Funk Wizard. Order Chaki's new LP, FROM LA TO THE BAY on 12" VINYL at chaki.bandcamp.com/album/from-l-a-to-the-bay-2 </p> Trailer and other archival audio via archive.org. </p> "Scratching Teeth" by JHS Pedals via YouTube Audio Library </p> Web: www.oldmoviesforyoungstoners.com Instagram/Facebook (Meta): oldmoviesforyoungstoners Bluesky: @oldmoviesystoners.bsky.social </p> Contact: oldmoviesforyoungstoners@gmail.com </p> NEXT EPISODE: GRAVE ROBBERS FROM HOLLYWOOD with PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE (1958).
