Paleo-Cinema Podcast 128 - Amazon Women Are Adequate

For 128 I look at two comedy satires about movies: 1987's Amazon Women On The Moon and the lesser known and lower budget 1989 movie That's Adequate - the only movie so far that starred both Robert Downey Jr. and Bruce Willis. 

There's also the competition. The first person to create a Paleo-Cinema Podcast Wikipedia page gets to pick two of the movies for the podcast and chat with me about them on a future episode.

This time around we have two very different films. The 1954 Pacific Island adventure flick His Majesty O'Keefe starring Burt Lancaster and Andre Morell and then the 1969 comedy The Magic Christian starring Peter Sellers and Ringo Star. We go from copra plantations on the island of Yap to Yul Brynner lipsynching in drag. Can't ask for much better than that.

Paleo-Cinema Podcast 27 - Damned Killer Children

This time I take a look at three movies about lethal children from the early 1960s. The first is Village of the Damned, starring George Sanders and Barbara Shelley. The second is the sequel cum remake of it, Children of the Damned from 1963 starring Ian Hendry and Alan Badel and finally, an unrelated film: Joseph Losey's 1961 (released in 1963) Hammer film (These Are) The Damned. All have lethal children in them, all three take a different approach to the subject.
