Back Track 016: Welcome to the party, pal! | Die Hard (1988) [Patreon Preview]

Surprise! Since it's a holiday weekend Charles suggested we review a fucked up family on screen. Well, I definitely never expected we would reach quote possibly the most screwed up Thanksgiving film that can ever exist. Starring indie Queen Parker Posey, Tori Spelling, and Freddie Prinze, Jr?! Say no more. Directed by Mark Waters who later went on to direct a little film called Mean Girls, this writing is just hilarious in the darkest way. This is one of those indie gems and we hope you enjoy this episode! Off topic rants include: the state of current television, more Real World obsessions, and how the 90s 'movie of the week' themes are HEAVY, and budgeting streaming services.--- Get BONUS episodes on Freaks and Geeks Season 1 and My So Called Life and to support the show, join the PATREON! www.patreon.com/fashiongrungeGIVE US A 5 STAR RATING & SUBSCRIBE!Hosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie  & Charles @charleshaslamMusic by Den-Mate @imdenmateFollow Fashion Grunge Podcast on: Instagram @fashiongrungepodTwitter @fgrungepodLetterboxd Fashion Grunge Podcast

I love a good sci-fi dystopian film. It's always spooky season when we're talking about genetic manipulation. Both me and Mikey have never seen this and WOW what a striking film. Visually it's just out of this world and we get into a lot of behind the scenes, architecture, minimalist fashion, and intricate story. Off but also On topic rants include: cloning, space travel, and re-casting movies for fun.--- Get BONUS episode recaps on Freaks and Geeks Season 1 and  currently My So Called Life and to support the show, join us on PATREON! www.patreon.com/fashiongrungeGIVE US A 5 STAR RATING & SUBSCRIBE!Hosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie & Mikey @agentmikey007 Music by Den-Mate @imdenmateFollow Fashion Grunge Podcast on Instagram @fashiongrungepod and fashiongrunge.com

A preview of what we're doing now over on Patreon! We're finally HERE! It's time to talk 'My So Called Life' one of my personal favorite TV shows of all time. There is so much to get into and just starting with Pilot we learn so much and try to dissect it all. In the series premiere we meet Angela Chase, an extremely introspective 15 year old who is grappling with identity and new friendships starting in her sophomore year of high school. She has an interesting family dynamic with parents Patty (ugh) and Graham (who is the best) and little sister Danielle. We also meet Rayanne and Rickie, her new friends that she's keen to explore a different side of life much to the dismay of her former friend Sharon. And we can't forget the introduction of a character who's name needs no explanation...Jordan Catalano. "Don't you love how he leans?"So join us every week as we review each episode of a show that can only be described as ahead of it's time and timeless all at once... only on Patreon!----Get bonus episodes and more of My So Called Life on Patreon! www.patreon.com/fashiongrungeGIVE US A 5 STAR RATING ON Hosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie & Jai @jai_stylefactoryFollow Fashion Grunge Podcast on Instagram @fashiongrungepod and fashiongrunge.com

What a film to talk about when I've got a new guest host for the pod! Join me and my buddy Pete as we talk the totally weird but awesome, Cool World (1992) directed by Ralph Bakshi. As you could probably tell, this was originally slated for a 'rated R' release and the script went through multiple rewrites to garner that PG-13 rating. We get into all the mess behind the scenes, discuss the many possible casting choices, and the kicking' soundtrack.Off-topic rants include: stoner movies, great movie soundtracks, British sitcoms, and Stanley Kubrick.--- Get BONUS episodes on Freaks and Geeks Season 1 and My So Called Life and to support the show, join the PATREON! www.patreon.com/fashiongrungeGIVE US A 5 STAR RATING & SUBSCRIBE!Hosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie  & Peter @sanbasl and check out his music: PCPETE on BandcampPodcast Music by Den-Mate @imdenmateFollow Fashion Grunge Podcast on: Instagram @fashiongrungepodTwitter @fgrungepodLetterboxd Fashion Grunge Podcast

It's an unwritten law that you have to talk about Tim Burton during October. Just as I planned it on this Halloween we simply HAD to talk about Sleepy Hollow. Even more surprising Charles had never seen it so his first time viewer perspective was welcome. I on the other had took this as yet another opportunity to talk about Johnny Depp. We get into all the behind the scenes creation, how we love the fashion, and who the true villain of this story really is. Off topic rants include: MTV's The Real World, 90s 'techie' movies, and what our 'comfort food' tv shows are--- Get BONUS episodes on Freaks and Geeks Season 1 and My So Called Life and to support the show, join the PATREON! www.patreon.com/fashiongrungeGIVE US A 5 STAR RATING & SUBSCRIBE!Hosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie  & Charles @charleshaslamMusic by Den-Mate @imdenmateFollow Fashion Grunge Podcast on: Instagram @fashiongrungepodTwitter @fgrungepodLetterboxd Fashion Grunge Podcast

Again, another film I had no idea existed until literally WEEKS ago. Both me and Charles give our first time fresh high level thoughts about Cherry Falls that literally gets better with each watch. Of course who doesn't want to see a slasher film in the mountains of Virginia where virgins are the target. I mean... In this episode we talk the SUPER weird relationship between Jody and her "dad", the ridiculousness of the story at every turn, and continue to ask the hard questions. Like: what in the actual fuck is going on? Off topic rants include: our love of celeb gossip podcasts, whether or not I should start a HateWatch series of movies I hate, and the fascinating genre of the 80s and 90s TV movie.--- Get BONUS episodes on Freaks and Geeks Season 1 and My So Called Life and to support the show, join the PATREON! www.patreon.com/fashiongrungeGIVE US A 5 STAR RATING & SUBSCRIBE!Hosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie  & Charles @charleshaslamMusic by Den-Mate @imdenmateFollow Fashion Grunge Podcast on: Instagram @fashiongrungepodTwitter @fgrungepodLetterboxd Fashion Grunge Podcast

for the full episode join the Patreon [patreon.com/fashiongrunge]What a new and inventive film concept in a contemporary world that seems riddled with remakes. This one for me was cinematography heavy since I was being such a nerd about it. There were so many different layers to this film and it was the direction, music, and the story that brought it together. Me, Jules, and Jai talk our fav creepiest "It" encounters, the nondescript but cool fashion, and how we're all OBSESSED with the score. Off topics rants include: why we all want to make a movie, new horror movies, and Jules talks living in an ACTUAL haunted house--- Get BONUS episodes join us on PATREON! www.patreon.com/fashiongrungeGIVE US A 5 STAR RATING & SUBSCRIBE!Hosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie & Jai @jai_stylefactory & Jules @imdenmate Music by Den-Mate @imdenmateFollow Fashion Grunge Podcast Instagram @fashiongrungepodTwitter @fgrungepodLetterboxd Fashion Grunge Podcast
