This is a podcast about cinematic oddities, where we discuss any media that is too bizarre, abnormal or off-kilter for contemporary audiences. Occasionally these projects gel, most times they crash, hard into the realm of obscurity. Join us as we delve into the cult classics swamp!

Episode 228 - Men in Black 2 (2002)
Many months ago, Rob & Zack discussed the first and third entries in the "Men in Black" series, and now it's finally time to finish up the much maligned middle child of the franchise! Join them as they discuss if this movie really deserves all the hate it regularly receives. But what are their thoughts about Will Smith's slap at the 2022 Oscars ceremony? How crazy were the cameos in this movie for 2002? Does Michael Jackson ever get to become Agent M? Listen in to find out!

Episode 227 - Miss March (2009)
Join Ben & Rob as they finish up some filmographies that they've previously started, and what better way to kick it off than with "Miss March"! Being Zach Cregger's only directorial effort before "Barbarian", it certainly is an incredibly different movie. But does it stand the test of time? Why was Playboy involved in this movie? Were Hugh Hefner and Trevor Moore in the same room at the same time? Listen in to find out!

Episode 226 - Girl on the Third Floor (2019)
In the very end of this year's spooky Halloween season, join Rob & Ben as they dive into a fairly obscure yet absolutely nasty horror movie, "Girl on the Third Floor"!

Episode 225 - Halloween (2018), Halloween Kills (2021), & Halloween Ends (2022)

Episode 224 - Goosebumps (TV Series)
It's that time of the year, Goosebumps time! Join Rob and Zack for their annual tradition of slowly chipping away at the entirety of the Fox Kids Goosebumps TV show.

Episode 223 - Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988)
A movie whose cult classic status has seemingly had a resurgence for no good reason, it's the Chiodo brothers "Killer Klowns from Outer Space"! Join Rob & Zack as they dive into some of the reasons why this movie could be making a comeback all of a sudden. Does it have to do with the sheer force of will from marketing? Does it have something to do with the clown sightings of the mid-2010's? Does it have to do with how many doors there are? Listen in to find out!

Episode 222 - Twilight Zone: The Movie (1983)
Something we've talked about flippantly many times in the past, we're finally focusing on the Twilight Zone film and all of the behind-scenes-drama of it! Join Rob, Zack, and Chris as they get into the gritty details of a truly horrible tragedy that happened during the filming of this movie, as well as a little bit of the movie itself. How at fault are John Landis and Frank Marshall? Is it possible to not understand the message of the Spielberg segment? What's being served on the Cinemoddities Airline? Listen in to find out!

Episode 221 - Nope (2022)
We're kicking off Monstober early this year with a new movie from someone who comes up quite a bit on Cinemoddities, it's Jordan Peele's "Nope"! One both Rob and Zack have been looking forward to, but how do they feel about it? How does this stand up to the previous "Get Out" and "Us" (otherwise known to Rob as U.S.)? Is there anything to be gained from this film? Can peacocks and umbrellas shapeshift? Listen in and find out!
