The Movie Mull

As we approach our 200th episode of the podcast, the mulls are taking a moment to look back at four years of podcasting...

Our penultimate special 'rewind' episode is Neil's choice. In this podcast, our host - Richard - invited us to look again at one of his favourite movie genres: the Creature Feature!

This episode was originally released in March 2022 - so early in the Movie Mull journey that we were still trying to squeeze film reviews into the same episode! So, brave yourself for film reviews, followed by an attempt to define what makes a 'creature feature' and then, of course, our favourite examples - and what we love about them. 

Enjoy the conversation - and look out for one more classic episodes being re-released next week as we count down towards Episode 200!

Our second special 'rewind' episode is Richard's choice. In this podcast, our host - J - invited us to look again at one of our favourite films - murder mystery comedy classic: CLUE! 

Hypothetically, if this film was being remade today (no need, we know!) who would you cast in the main roles. Back in February 2023, we spent an hour going through our choices...

As we approach our 200th episode of the podcast, the mulls are taking a moment to look back at four years of podcasting...

First up, we have J's choice - an episode that first went out back in July 2022. For this episode, Darren had challenged the mulls to look back at all of the films released in 1989 and select one - just one - movie that should be saved.  Turns out 1989 had some pretty extraordinary film releases!

We made our predictions... but who got it right? 

Following last week's academy awards in Hollywood, the mulls quickly got together to record this special episode and discussed everything that happened... including, crucially, who took home the awards, and most importantly which of our four mulls managed to accurately predict those award winners?  (Listener, mistakes were made!)

The tally was close, but there could only be one winner... tune in to find out who, as well as which of our lovely listeners made the most correct predictions.

The four mulls are back together this week - and sharing with you four more reviews to help you decide what to watch, at home or at the movies, this week.

First up, Justin tells us all about the oft-overlooked 2013 film, Parkland, set in the immediate aftermath of the Kennedy Assassination. Then, Neil catches us up with the latest in the long-running Predator franchise: Predator Badlands from director Dan Trachtenburg - who previously brought us Prey and Killer of Killers - this dares to make the villain into the protagonist. 

Next up, Darren continues his quest to watch all of this year's best picture nominees and gives us his review of Joachim Trier's Sentimental Value which is now available to watch on Mubi. And, finally, our host Richard shares his thoughts about Crime 101, a thriller (which reunite avengers Chris Hemsworth and Mark Ruffalo) screening at limited cinemas now.
