John Carpenter’s first feature film is a science fiction comedy which I had the pleasure of being introduced to back in my youth when BBC2 ran a season of cult

The film show for film Geeks by film Geeks. With looks at the picks of film news, latest reviews, and a deep dive each episode into an older film of choice.

Brought to you by two fans with links to film and cinema, there is chat, fun, and neat things to round things off.

Are you our number one fan? Well. this week we take a look at Misery for our Deep Dive, and maybe start to worry about obsessive fans. In the reviews we take a look at The First Omen, Civil War, and Back To Black – one of which is Andy's lowest rated film this year, and one is his highest rated. Neat things, Question of the Week, and News round it all off as usual.
