    554: "I assure you; we're open" | Clerks (1994)

    Ever feel like you’re not even supposed to be here today? Join us as we revisit Clerks (1994), Kevin Smith’s DIY love letter to the slackers, stoners, and talkers among us. We dive into the snappy, absurdist dialogue that made Smith a cult icon, the unlikely charm of the Quick Stop’s cast of characters, and why Dante and Randal’s aimless debates on life, love, and the Star Wars universe still resonate.

    553: "Oh, no, not The Carpenters" | In The Mouth of Madness (1994)

    Step into the abyss with us as we delve into In the Mouth of Madness (1994), John Carpenter's eerie ode to the power—and terror—of the written word. In this twisted tale, we follow insurance investigator John Trent as he tumbles into a world where reality unravels and madness reigns. With nods to Lovecraftian horrors and unseen cosmic forces, we’ll explore the sinister allure of forbidden knowledge and ask the ultimate question: can fiction drive us to insanity?

    552: "Sex, Lies, and Lycanthropy" | Wolf (1994)

    We sink our teeth into Wolf (1994), where Jack Nicholson stars as a middle-aged book editor whose life takes a wild turn after he's bitten by a wolf. As he grapples with newfound animal instincts, his world of publishing becomes a battlefield for survival—both at work and in the wild. We explore the film’s blend of werewolf horror and corporate drama, and how it reinvents the classic creature feature with Nicholson’s trademark intensity.

    551: "Ever play 'Skin the Cat?'" | Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994)

    Wes Craven's New Nightmare—a meta-horror triumph that blurs the lines between fiction and reality, reimagining Freddy Krueger as a primal force of fear. It’s a self-aware and chilling exploration of the horror genre itself, where dreams and nightmares collide with terrifying consequences. Craven invites us to confront our deepest anxieties, forcing us to question the power of stories and the monsters they create.

    550: "Pump Up the Ventricle” | Interview with the Vampire (1994)

    we sink our teeth into Interview with the Vampire—a gothic masterpiece that redefines the vampire genre through a lens of sensuality, existentialism, and haunting beauty. It's a darkly romantic journey that captivates and unsettles, inviting us to question our own humanity in the face of eternal life.
