November is covered with two new films to be included on the Lambcast: The Holdovers and Napoleon. For December there are many choices and the Community is going to give us their input on which two to include. We will still have the MOTM and a specialty show but when it comes to new films, your choice is going to determine the Conversation. The schedule for November and December will reach your mailbox after this vote is concluded....
This week on the LAMBcast, you can stay in your recliner or lay down on the sofa, because our movies on this show are streaming and no ticket is required.
Netflix, Prime, Paramount+, Now, Max, Criterion, Hulu, VUDU, you don’t have to look hard to find streaming services, and some of them like Tubi, don’t require a subscription, only your patience with commercials. Nicole Ayers, Tony Coogan and James Wilson join the show...
We have always had games as part of the Lambcast, even if every episode did not have a game. We fill in some of those “gameless” shows with an episode that is all games this week. All of the guests on the show this week brought a game to play, and no one knew what anyone else had in mind. Fortunately all of the games are different, they have varying degrees of difficulty, and you can play along with the guests to test your own...
It’s time to announce the next Movie of the Month winner! October is our horror special month, and once again we had five very different horror films covering five realms of horror movie-dom, and as has happened before the horror-adjacent comedy won out in the end. So if you’re not a fan of absolutely terrifying films that peer into your soul and devour it from the inside then fear not, for this month’s winner is Abbott...
Spooky goings on in a mansion in Venice bring famed detective Hercule Poirot out of a self imposed exile from criminal investigations. Is spiritualism real or a con? Has there been a murder or simply a tragedy? Is this a cozy mystery or an alcohol fueled trip into darkness? By the time we are done with this week’s show, you should have the answers to those questions.
Sitting around our séance table this week are last...
The spooky season is here, so to celebrate let’s vote for the October horror-special Movie of the Month! Five LAMB members have submitted films from various horror subgenres and eras, and you get to vote on which one will be the movie of the month for October, and a Lambcast episode will be dedicated to it. The poll is at the bottom of the page, but first here are the nominees:
Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein...
Our movie of the Month for September is a Back to School Special for all the really bright Lambs out there. If you are not so bright, you will probably enjoy it as well. The film is “Real Genius” from 1985. It’s one of three films opening within a two week span in 1985 classified as Teen Sci Fi Comedies. Those of us on the show this week, would largely agree that this one wins “Best in...
Try as he might, Richard can’t be on every show and this week Howard Casner demonstates how superflous Richard really is. Howard moves us through three rounds of Whatcha Been Watchin’ films with Nicole Ayers of The MadLab Post, David Brook from Blueprint Review, Stephen Palmer from the Asian Cinema Film Club and newcomer Daniel Chadwick-Shubat from the Get Reel Movies Blog.
Howard,as always, finds some interesting...
In this “special” episode of the LAMBcast we take note of this new milestone by getting together some of the long time hosts of the show, including the founder of the LAMB Dylan Fields.
The conversation starts out with a discussion of the origination of the Lamb and a little backstage talk about the first Lambcast. Dylan went from primitive recording to polished host. Jay Cluitt started out as a disagreeable guest...
This week on the Lambcast, we step into the Wayback Machine and take a trip to the Me Decade. Disco was still king, Sequels were becoming more and more typical, and nostalgia for the Beatles was the driving force of a couple of movies on our lists. We expanded the guest list this week to include some people who have first hand memories of 1978, and we got at least 26 different films to share with each other and with you.

It’s time to announce the next Movie of the Month winner! There were five nominees submitted by LAMB members and various methods of campaigning ranging from a social media barrage to absolutely nothing and not even voting for their own film, but it seems persistence doesn’t always pay off, as this month’s winner was not the most prolific campaigner for the poll. Sometimes you...
When the Movie of the Month show rolls around, we always hope for a gem, but sometimes we get a cubic zirconia. This month the guest list evaluating the film discovers a true jewel and happily dive into the discussion of the 2002 film “Hero”.
Heather Baxendale-Walsh championed this personal favorite to the winner’s circle and she enthusiastically sums up the story and draws attention to the aspects...
