A boy receives a a surprisingly good Christmas gift, in the form of a living creature no one has seen before, from his usually disappointing Dad. However, when the little monster’s spawn destroy the town and ruin Christmas, the gift turns out to be as disappointing as his Dad and his lousy inventions.

Joelle - "The Gremlins scare me more than serial killers."

Parry - "(In Ralph Parker voice) I don’t think Gremlins make a very good Christmas gift."

They Like Corn!

Parry: "Outlander! I have your vaccine!"

Joelle - "You need a weapon. You need something to 'juk' people in the eye cause your man done left you!"

Lane Meyer’s attempts to mend a broken heart by unsuccessfully attempting to kill himself.

Joelle - "Cracker Jack prizes suck. At least they could give us a temporary tattoo."

Parry - "A lower back temporary tattoo?"

Godfrey Reggio, director of the Qatsi Trilogy (Koyaanisqatsi, Powaqatsi, Naqoyqatsi), Anima Mundi, Evidence, Visitors, and many others, joins us to speak about his life and journey as a filmmaker.

Also, Parry completely geeks out speaking with someone who changed his perceptions of film, society, and Twinkies*.

*A deep cut Koyaanisqatsi reference not actually mentioned in this interview. But if you know, you know.

Visuals and music are seamlessly blended into a pure cinema (or non-narrative) event that presents the familiar as unfamiliar and creates the conditions through which a local can see the world like a tourist.

Parry - "Bikes are really hard to come by during a pandemic."

Joelle - "Polyester is good for no one."
