Mon, 14 July 2008 Rudolph Valentino's Rolls
My friend JJ and I went to Luray, VA, this past weekend. Went to the caverns/maze/car museum there. It was the second visit for me. Got a pic of Valentino's car in the museum. Thought it might be of interest to cinema fans out there... Photo by JJ.

 

Sun, 20 July 2008 short delay on new episodes
Libsyn is experiencing problems. There has been trouble uploading files today, and I have 2 new Cinematic Attic podcasts ready for posting. Furthermore, I have found myself unable to download the past 4 episodes all of a sudden. So, hopefully, this'll be cleared up soon.

 

Thu, 28 August 2008 quick note
I hope to record the next episode this weekend. The review will have to be a surprise. I also plan to record a negative numbered episode and post it prior to a new proper episode. (Those familiar with The Comic Book Attic format know what I mean).

 

Fri, 5 September 2008 quick note 2
Okay, so the Labor Day holiday held up the completion of the new episode. It will be on the way soon... In it, I'll be talking about a 1972 TV movie, Strangers in 7A.

Sun, 21 December 2008 trailer for next episode's film
I wasn't expecting for one moment to find a potential review when I sat down to watch this David Hasselhoff vehicle (no pun intended for Knight Rider fans), but what I experienced was the most hilariously bad movie I've seen in a while. It's a howling-on-the-floor good time-- that is, when it's not offending ethnic groups left and right! Here's a trailer to Bail Out (also known as W.B., Blue & The Bean) from 1989: http://videodetective.com/titledetails.aspx?publishedid=2827 I'll be discussing it further in episode 10, out soon. (Before that, I'll also be releasing episode -2).

 

Tue, 23 December 2008 two of my favorite things in one video Buster Keaton montage to the music of Radiohead. This is an amazing and excellent video:

Here's a link to where you can watch the stark British nuclear bomb movie, Threads (1984): http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=THREADS# It's one of the films I'll be talking about in a future episode.

 

Sat, 28 March 2009 if you like good music, try this
I encourage everyone who likes music to take a listen to the -1 episode of The Stereoplanetary Attic podcast. We take a track-by-track look at the debut EP from Adam Taylor, one of my top five favorite musicians.

Sun, 14 June 2009 The Cinematic Attic is moving
The Cinematic Attic will be moving to The Attic of Babel podcast page. It will be joining all my other podcasts there in one central account, with the exception of The Comic Book Attic. The episodes will be moved gradually over the next couple months. Once all are moved, this page will be deleted. If you subscribe to the podcast, you will want to resubscribe at the new site once all the old episodes are reposted (unless, of course, you felt like hearing them again... nah, didn't think so). This is an effort to save time and money in the long run, yet still keep my various podcasts alive. For more details, click here: http://atticofbabel.libsyn.com/index.php?post_id=491112

 

Thu, 14 October 2010 holy crap.
ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED OCT. 22, 2009. You gotta love those VHS covers of the '80s. This is a recent find at a flea market, although I already own the film in a DVD multi-pack. Had to have this cover! The movie's on-screen title is Legacy of Blood.

 

Thu, 14 October 2010 for a future Cinematic Attic review...
ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED OCT. 29, 2009. I may talk about this film on the next Cinematic Attic podcast with Kingdom of the Spiders, or I may save it for the following episode. Enjoy the trailer for Don't Answer the Phone! (1980).
