The PM ENTERTAINMENT PODCAST
Episode 23 - Angels of the City
For Episode 23, we head to the mean, neon-soaked streets of late 80s Hollywood for Angels of the City (1989). We’re talking college girls, sorority pranks, pimps, shotgun blasts, useless boyfriends, harpoons, the darkest ending of all PM films and one absolute banger of a title track, all courtesy of the legendary Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs who wrote, directed, produced, starred in AND scored the thing. Joining us are two of the finest authorities on direct-to-video and VHS cinema around, Moe Von Helvete and Matt Poirier. Wrong street. Wrong night. Wrong pimps. Let's go!
Video Review - Angels of the City
I review the incredible, underrated, wild, bleak, dark, hilarious, weird, unexpected and unhinged Angels of the City
Video Review - L.A. Vice
I review L.A. Vice the second part of the Jon Chance trilogy - they’ve managed to round up FBI agents who are worse at their job than Chance who is now a take no prisoners, shoot first and don’t even ask a question kind of cop and the cinematography and the lighting have ramped up a notch!!
Video Review - L.A. Heat
I review the first ever PM Entertainment film, L.A. Heat, which I loved by the way, maybe not the way they intended it but as an eyewitness to Detective Jon Chance’s deranged descent into hell and hitting rock bottom before violent death restores his soul and his faith in being a good cop.
Episode 20 - Midnight Warrior
For Episode 20, we dive into Midnight Warrior (1989), a late-80s PM fever dream of rival news crews, sleazy executives, BIG hair, explosions, and a synth song that won’t quit. Directed by Joseph Merhi, written by Charles T. Kanganis and starring Kevin Bernhardt, it may be early PM but its prophetic! We are, once again, joined by guests Chris Kacvinsky and Matt Poirier. Ratings rule. The camera never blinks.
