Just a quick podcast to get us through the holiday weekend and into next week. You've got some extra time to watch The Blob before we cover it in the next episode.

In this episode:

Listener mail.

New York Ripper - a giallo film that isn't boring.

Dragon*Con is coming up this weekend, Scott will be there.

Gil Gerard - you won't recognize him.

Here's what's new:

HD-DVD vs Blu-Ray - things heat up without really going anywhere.

Yet another version of "Color out of Space."

Grindhouse: What happened?

This weeks' movie: Naked You Die.

Next week's homework: The Blob (Criterion edition or cheapo version).

Also next week, some listener mail we didn't get to this week.

Things we talk about this week:

Scott has a brand new Apple TV so we review the differences between that and Tivo and a few other digital movie watching options as well.

Then we get down to the nitty gritty and look at some upcoming movies including Beowulf, The Seeker, Rush Hour 3, and 10,000 BC (or as we like to call it, Apocalypto Lite).
