Stand By Me (1986)

Join filmmaker Nathan Blackwell (Voyage Trekkers, The Last Movie Ever Made) and improv comedian Krissy Lenz (The Neighborhood Comedy Theatre, The Saturday Matinee Podcast) plus podcaster and filmmaker Tommy Metz III (What’s That Smell, The Next Reel) for a stroll down the lane of this scary but magical 80s movie.

Letterboxd says, “FOR SOME, IT’S THE LAST REAL TASTE OF INNOCENCE, AND THE FIRST REAL TASTE OF LIFE.

After learning that a stranger has been accidentally killed near their rural homes, four Oregon boys decide to go see the body. On the way, Gordie Lachance, Vern Tessio, Chris Chambers and Teddy Duchamp encounter a mean junk man and a marsh full of leeches, as they also learn more about one another and their very different home lives. Just a lark at first, the boys’ adventure evolves into a defining event in their lives.”

PLUS, Members will get to hear all Steven King movies ranked by Rotten Tomatoes after the show!

It’s the podcast where a filmmaker (Nathan Blackwell of Squishy Studios) and a comedian (Krissy Lenz of Neighborhood Comedy Theatre) take a hilarious look at the 80s movies we think we love or might have missed with modern eyes and probably a significant haze of nostalgia.
