The B-Movie Cast is back… sort of. We recorded a few episodes in preparation for Mary going off the air for 6-8 weeks during the nuclear plant shutdown she works at called ‘the outage’. What we didn’t know when we put these episodes ‘in the can’ was that Mary would be opting out of doing the outage this year due to health concerns. Don’t worry, she’s fine, she wanted to stay fine so she’s staying home with Kitty her cat. That said, we still have a few pre-recorded episodes and this is one of them!
Last episode was Nik Havert’s “Monster Music Cast” and now Mary and Nic back and we’re joined once again by Brian Cunningham, filmmaker and co-owner of Thoughtfly Studios in Louisville Kentucky. The gang is checking out another 80s flick. This time it’s “Trancers” from 1985! This is a definite ‘Nic-pick’ film but that’s OK because everyone enjoyed it… even if Nic does end up spending half the cast defending the merits of this 80s ‘mockbuster’ of “The Terminator”.
By the way, what’s even better than doing a podcast on a time travel movie? Time traveling during the time travel cast! Well we did it! Mary, Nic and Brian got together again to record the feedback and the contest sections of the cast. That’s right we visit the past during this episode! I don’t think we changed the future… we’ll see.
So don’t be a squid! Grab a drink, a TV dinner and your long-second watch and check out the “Trancers” episode of the B-Movie Cast!
Also- for a bit of fun- check out this video from artist Casey Knoll. Casey did the cover for the new “B-Movie Cookbook: The 1960s” and she created a video showing how she worked her magic! It’s amazing to see the images come to life and it’s also got a kicking-60s theme-song montage to accompany it!

The B-Movie Cast is back and this time we’ve got two special guests. Mary and Nic are joined by fan favorite, British photographer Mark Mawston, and filmmaker John Stevenson. The gang has decided to take on a cult favorite from the 80s- “The Keep”. It has got monsters, Nazis and all the synthesizer music they could cram into it. Some call it a horror film, some call it a fantasy, the director says it’s an adult fairytale and the box office in 1983 said it was a dud. This film suffered from the common problem of the studio (Paramount) taking the artistic vision of the director (Michael Mann) and tossing it into the trash as they cut the film from 3.5hrs to 2hrs and then finally to a nearly incomprehensible 96 minutes! But don’t worry, the B-Movie Cast is ready to make it all right! So get ready for some fun as we break down the movie and live our best life checking out what is really a 96 minute Tangerine Dream music video!

Happy Halloween B-Movie Cast Fans! This time on the show Mary and Nic are doing a special episode with our friend from the U.K. Mark Mawston! Mark picked out a classic bit of British cinema from the early 1960s for us staring Peter Wyngarde called “Burn Witch Burn” (originally called “Night of the Eagle” in the U.K.). It’s a movie about witches, magic and the power of being an uptight University professor!
So sit back, grab your bag of Halloween candy and enjoy episode 390 of the B-Movie Podcast!
