O.K. Video Batch 2 Episode 6 3000 Miles to Graceland

The stunt-casting-est, gun blasting-est, chrome scopion-est movie of the batch is here! Demian Lichtenstein’s 3000 Miles to Graceland is a much needed update to The Wild Bunch, touting better costumes, better actors (Ernest  Borgnine vs David Arquette? NO CONTEST) and a way better scorpion intro. Elvis “The King” Presley and his mythological presence on the landscape of Americana is the heart and soul of this heist thriller, starring Kurt Russell as Mike and Kevin Costner as Murph, two illegitimate Kings with different codes. Which scorpion will prevail?

Thanks for joining Ryan and Nathan as we continue to explore the catalog of Franchise Pictures. If you have questions or feedback, email ryan@okvideo.ca and (or?) nathan@okvideo.ca

O.K. Video 90s Cyberpunk 7 The Thirteenth Floor

Virtual Reality. Hot subject in 1999, and despite being somewhat late to the party, The Thirteenth Floor still squeaks into our 90s Cyberpunk batch. Thanks for joining us. Ryan and Nathan had pretty different experiences with this one, but manage to find some conversation fruit about artificial intelligence, video games and the ethics of killing NPCs. We then dive into a discussion about great horror movie monsters.  If you'd like to send in some questions for future shows, email ryan@okvideo.ca or nathan@okvideo.ca We are also on Hive and Instagram, okvideopodcast, and BlueSky, OKVideo.
