Second Take Cinema

On this week's episode of Second Take Cinema we take a look back at this sci-fi classic from 1984, the film that put so many of the people involved on the map; director James Cameron as well as stars Arnold Schwarzenegger, Linda Hamilton and Michael Biehn. There's been a lot of sequels since that saw Schwarzenegger's T-800 turned into an iconic action hero, but in this original movie he is the bad guy. Does it still work in 2026 now we all know Arnie as the action star? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The boys are joined by special guest David Gardner (the voice of Karl Trevino) on this weeks episode of Second Take Cinema as they take a look back at this Alfred Hitchcock classic which sees two strangers plan the "perfect" murder; by swapping victims with one another they believe the authorities would have no hope of catching them. However things take a dark turn when it turns out one of the conspirators is more serious about the plan than the other... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This indie film was a juggernaut in the late 90s and is usually credited as being the film that first mainstreamed the "found footage" subgenre. Since release it's been a divisive movie with some audiences finding the lack of anything happening dull and a waste of time, whilst others find an oddly compelling sense of dread in the lack of any "real" events. Jamie and Rory are coming at the movie from opposite directions and discuss how they think the film plays today. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week we're talking about the Sandman, no not the Neil Gaiman Netflix show but Adam Sandler. It's undeniable that Sandler has built a lengthy career in Hollywood although the quality of that career is up for discussion. On today's episode Jamie and Rory discuss one of the more unique (albeit oft-forgotten) of Sander's oeuvre; 2006's Click. What begins as a very by-the-numbers Sander comedy about a man who gifted a universal remote that let's him...well, control his universe, this movie takes a SHARP turn around the middle portion of the film that transforms it into a completely different movie. Do these two halves coexist? Does one impact the other? Let's find out! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
