EPISODE 66: THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE

Mom wanted to do a cult classic from the year she graduated high school, in honor of her 50th reunion. And oh boy, I found a doozy for her. We watched The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. We had a theme meal of smoked sausage and egg noodles (my personal favorite). We spent a lot of time going over the facts, the rumors and the money. What an interesting tale!

EPISODE 63: VAMPYR

Mom and I sat down and watched a film, like Mom has never seen before: foreign and nearly silent. We watched 1932's Vampyr. The Criterion cut we watched was comprised of bits and pieces from the German and French releases. The English release has been lost to time. There was no food in this movie, so we just had a nice diner breakfast. We talked vampire lore, vampire film history then made fun of JD Vance a little. All in all, a good session. We hope you enjoy this one.

We talked trivia, what the director was up to, the presidential debate, women's healthcare in America and how I learned how to ride a bike-it was the 80s, so you know it was a traumatic event.

EPISODE 60: MAD MAX FURY ROAD

Mom and I sat down and watched Mad Max Fury Road. We had large, beautiful salads as our theme meal, in reference to the lush greenery at the Citadel. We talked George Miller and trivia then slipped into how the present is its own dystopian hellscape in need of a reboot.

To honor a recently deceased family member, Mom and I watched a movie that would have surely been one of his favorites, 1979's Alien.

EPISODE 54: THEY LIVE

Mom and I sat down and watched John Carpenter's They Live. We talked a little trivia before getting to the nitty gritty and talking politics and homelessness. This movie was made in the 80's but even now, 35 years later, the message is the same. And that's the real horror of the whole thing. There isn't much food in this movie, so our theme meal was to consume, so we went out and bought bagel sandwiches and fancy coffee drinks.

EPISODE 47: HALLOWEEN 2 (1981)

Mom and I watched the original Halloween II. We had a lovely hospital food meal of breaded chicken tenders, scalloped potatoes and steamed broccoli. We tried to avoid politic talk. Though I did flub and say I was voting no on issue one, my verbiage was confused though my heart was in the right place.
