We spoke about immortality & aging last week in the holly jolly Hook, this week Dan Burgess & I look at it from an entirely different perspective as we wind up the gears in #GuillermoDelToro's ancient alchemical device in his debut feature film the very merry #Cronos! What happens when an elderly doting grandfather becomes addicted to an insect's rejuvenating sting, but in doing so also develops a thirst for human blood? Join us a we discuss Del Toro's troubling childhood, #RonPerlman's pitch-perfect performance & keeping excrement in jars... #PrepareForPrattle

I intend to start #AlterNativityStories 2025 with a show of "good form" as I bring back The Sleaziest Sleaze Of The Seven Seas, Angry Andy Reviews along with Steven Spielberg, Peter Pan & Captain James Hook in a film hated by adults including Speilberg himself but adored by children #Hook (1991) is it still #Bangarang after all these years or does it deserve to go in #TheBooBox? Join us as we remember one of Robin William's most challenging roles, #Neverland's astounding visuals and arguably the best cameo of all time!! #PrepareForPrattle
Something I forgot to mention was that Dante Basco also produced a Rufio short film a few years back... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2PPS4CNI_A
Before you argue that this is Speilberg's worst outing, go back and listen to my review with JAC on 1941 https://tinyurl.com/yuvhbkmx

*CONTENT WARNING!! THIS PODCAST & FILMS FEATURE TOPICS SUCH AS ANIMAL CRUELTY, DEATH, DEBILITATING INJURY & VIVISECTION!
A much deeper and longer podcast than I was expecting given the violent subject matter, but no less beautiful than the films Maff has us covering this week. Not unlike nature herself. In the latest #CloneBores we compare #MartinRosen’s animated adaptations of #RichardAdam’s environmentalist novels #WatershipDown & #ThePlagueDogs! Two films that no doubt scarred many a child’s psyche due to their questionable age ratings. Join us as we discuss Depressed Mode, Holocaust parallels & our own family pet’s predatory natures… #PrepareForPrattle
This episode continues our animal theme from previous podcasts our last one was on giant spiders! https://tinyurl.com/236bvdhz
Speaking of animal themes listen to Maff’s latest reviews on the resurrected Pop Guerrillas 2.0 https://pod.link/1840647225
Along with discussing all the Glup Shittos with Mike & Dave on Star Wars Chit-Chat https://pod.link/1657925693

What is fact? What is fiction? Supposedly “the camera never lies” but is the person behind the camera being entirely honest? So many terrifying questions about media manipulation and so few actual truths…For the final entry in #ShockPhobiaFest 2025 I list my Top 5 Horror Mockumentary/Found Footage Films! Join me as I discuss Norwegian Mythology, Koreans beating The U.S. & the disturbing history of The Magdalene Laundries… #PrepareForPrattle
