    About this Episode

    Another year, another Summer Box Office Challenge. As we enter 2017, JackassMatt has soundly defeated JackassTom in 2016, taking a 3-2 lead in the history of the #SBOC! We start out our conversation discussing the big hits and misses in the previous year, along with talk about some surprising 2016 Summer box office winners neither one of us expected. We then transition to the main event, the 2017 Summer Box Office Challenge. Each of us pick 5 summer films to compare their domestic box office haul. Films from May 19, 2017 through the end of August 2017 are eligible. We'll start totalling up our results in mid September, though the die likely will be cast by mid August on who is going to be the winner. Let's get started kids!

    Episode 16 - Body Double
    Welcome to Podcast #16 with your friendly Jackass Critics! This episode, we watch Brian DePalma's Body Double, and give our running thoughts and commentary on one of DePalma's most divisive films. If you've ever been curious what the hub bub is about Body Double (as an early hint, it's an early 80's look in to the world of pornography) or if you're a grizzled DePalma fan that has seen all of DePalma's short films, there's something for everyone revisiting the world of Body Double.

    Episode 9b - Pickup on South Street (Fuller)

    Episode 9b - Pickup on South Street (Fuller)
    Our focus this podcast is the 1953 film from director Samuel Fuller, Pickup on South Street. Fuller has grown quite a cult following in the years after his death. Commonly known for his black and white films focusing on the hard life; Brutality towards women was common in his films. Pickup mixes some 50's America red scare underpinnings with a look at the life of a low level city hood. JackassTom finds a lot to like in Fullers work. JackassMatt has a tougher time swallowing some of the bitter medicine Sam is feeding him.
