So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 21 - Devil/The Last Exorcism

It's a HELL of a good time this week as J&K schlep an hour-and a-half away to the Vineland Drive-In south of L.A. for a scary movie double feature: DEVIL and THE LAST EXORCISM! (And we use the term "scary" loosely.) You wanna know what's really scary? JELLY-COVERED TOAST FALLING JELLY SIDE DOWN. El Diablo is near!! And then there's the whole Exorcism movie... Time to git us some religion! Not to be confused with the original kid exorcism flick starring Linda Blair, or the later one with Emily Rose, this is a mockumentary that is actually surprisingly okay...until its final five WTF-filled minutes. Get out the crucifix and the holy water! This podcast is rated PG-13!

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 20 - Poltergeist

For episode 20, we go totally freaky deaky and Krissy watches POLTERGEIST (1982) for the very first time. How did she manage to miss this horror classic for 27 years? Especially since she lived 10 minutes away from the actual haunted house in the movie! Oh well. That's why this podcast exists. We discuss the infamous Poltergeist Curse and the mysterious deaths associated with it, pot-smoking parents, burial ground real estate, scary clowns, kid-eating trees, swimming pool skeletons, the original Ghost Whisperer Zelda Rubinstein, face-melting scenes, CPR with dental dams (??) and Strawberry Jelly (or Jam) Limbo Land. This podcast is rated PG-13! Keep the movie suggestions coming and thanks for listening!

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 19 - Point Break

After a sea of comedies (romantic and otherwise), the podcast sets its sights on a HEART-POUNDING, ADRENALINE-PUMPING ACTION flick! No, not Die Hard. Or even Lethal Weapon -- neither of which Krissy has seen, naturally. No, we aimed higher... All the way up to the Keanu Reeves echelon of Greatness. And then we found it; the holy grail -- not Speed or The Matrix, but 1991's high-blood-pressure-inducing POINT BREAK!! (RIP Patrick Swayze.) The HEART-THROTTLING, spoiler-filled discussion includes: Keanu's overall film batting average, Point Break Live!, the art of robbing banks with masks, the logic of skydiving without a parachute, lawnmowing during a raid, K's blind hatred of Scooby Doo, the romance!!! (wait, was there romance in this?), the Point Break/Matrix mirror scene, the size of Bell's Beach, plus the ending of Titanic and James Cameron's nether regions. ...Yep, we hit our unnecessary penis reference quota for the week! For that alone (in some areas of the world), this podcast is rated PG-13. Thanks for listening!

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 18 - Risky Business/Cocktail

It's an old school Tom Cruise double feature! This week, Kris for the very 1st time finally experiences 'Risky Business' (1983) and 'Cocktail' (1988), two early Cruise films that feature the youthful pursuit of The American Dream through hard work, entrepreneurship, prostitution and bartending with choreography. The meandering discussion includes Risky's important lessons about hookers, Balki and Booger, the hotness of Rebecca De Mornay and her work attire, running a brothel in your house,  Joey Pants!!, Risky's strange sex scenes,Tom Cruise's actual height, ELISABETH SHUE, the Cocktail soundtrack, romantic waterfalls (should they be chased?), standing on top of bars for poetry, the saddest L.A. stripper ever, dancing in underwear and the real Coughlin's Law. "Sometimes you just got to say...what the heck." This episode is rated PG-13, but a hard PG-13 because, again, we talk about hookers and strippers.

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 17 - Earth Girls Are Easy

This week, we hit shuffle on Netflix Watch Instantly and land on the 1989 super-cheesefest 'Earth Girls Are Easy.' Yes, the extremely odd movie about sex-starved aliens inadvertently crash-landing their Oscar Wienermobile spaceship in an L.A. valley girl's pool. As one of us succinctly describes it, "What the crap is this??" Also...Which of us actually liked this movie (and why)? Are earth girls really that easy? What were Geena Davis, Jeff Goldblum, Damon Wayans Jim Carrey and their agents thinking? What is the Jeff Goldblum Look that constantly slays the ladies? Julie Brown or Downtown Julie Brown? Why does Krissy keep bringing up 'Schindler's List' every movie we watch? How do birth control pills really work? What should the (never happening) sequel be about and should James Cameron be involved? Tell ya friends! Tell ya wife! This episode is rated PG-13.

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 16 - Ghost/Sleepless in Seattle

So what do the 90s movies 'Ghost' and 'Sleepless in Seattle' have in common...? Dead spouses! Oscar winners! A protagonist named Sam! Krissy's newfound love!! Seriously, how K went so long without ever seeing either of these movies -- but especially SIS, a movie that has 'KRISSY' written all over it -- is beyond us. Join us as we drink wine and Justin accuses Meg Ryan of being a stalker of 'Fatal Attraction' caliber, Krissy inexplicably defends her love for Bill Pullman (while still pursuing Tom hanks on the side), and we both ponder the magic combination of hot people and pottery.  Also discussed with varying degrees of incredulity and jealousy: just HOW it's possible that Demi Moore looks better now than she did in her 20s. I mean really, woman's got a time machine. ...With a resident plastic surgeon inside.  Also, we totally get the director wrong for 'Ghost.' Sorry, Jerry Zucker. This podcast is rated PG-13! Enjoy!

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 15 - Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

Everyone's seen 'Temple of Doom,' right? Well, Krissy hadn't. So we watched it annnnd talked about it a whole bunch. Discussion includes Justin saying "like" a whole lot (he blames stupidity/cold medicine), what really happened with Krissy & her hatred of 'Raiders of the Lost Ark,' which 2 characters will forever be known as Blanket Jackson & Tater Tots, what to do (or not do) when served monkey brains for dessert, the dangers of getting a beer with Mola Ram, the stupidity of a bulimic army & much more. Rated PG-13 because we also talk about child slavery & hearts being torn from people's chest cavities. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED.

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 14 - Inception

It's not a dream. Or IS IT? We really do try to explain our intense Sade-like love for Christopher Nolan's 'Inception' in our longest episode yet! Discussion includes why Justin has already seen the movie twice, Krissy's bordering on stalker obsession with Leonardo DiCaprio, how 'Inception' ranks as a Leo film, the awesomeness of the zero gravity sequence, what kind of dreams we would build if we were the architects, the movie's almost too-intense score, that controversial last scene and more. We try to keep it spoiler-lite until the very end. This podcast is rated PG-13!

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 13 - The Blue Lagoon

We go tropical for episode 13 by submitting ourselves to 'The Blue Lagoon,' the 1980 coming-of-age shipwreck drama that starred a 14 year-old Brooke Shields, Christopher Atkins & Mr. Feeney from 'Boy Meets World.' Discussion includes what Brooke Shields' mom must have been thinking by putting her daughter in this movie, going through puberty on a deserted island, the suspension of disbelief, attending school dances with your cousin, the dangers of swimming nude near coral, Paddy Button The Soothsayer, the birds and the bees and passion-fruit sex, teaching your baby to swim, Albert Einstein hair and Morgan Freeman's wang. The movie's rated R but our podcast could pass for a hard PG-13. Seriously, kids. What do you expect from a movie in which the two main characters are nude most of the time?

So I Married A Movie Geek - Episode 12 - The Shawshank Redemption

On this edition of SIMAMG, Krissy finally watches The Shawshank Redemption (1994) for the very first time. How she somehow missed it airing 20 times a day for the past 15 years on TNT we don't know. Discussion includes contemplating how we'd personally do if each of us were in prison, the movie's number one ranking on IMDB, the theme of hope in the film, how Morgan Freeman has become the king of narration and mix CD's, going to see The Mist on Easter, false Christian wardens, Prison Break the FOX series, book fairs, crawling through poop pipes and much much more. This podcast is rated PG-13!
