In the summer of 1982, there were two films from Universal Pictures featuring an alien visiting our planet. One was a cute little botanist named E.T. whose film set box office records. The other was about a very different sort of alien, one that brought out mistrust and terror in all it encountered. The Thing . That movie made...less money, but it eventually found its audience and Ryan and Nathan are two of them.

As 2025 approaches, we have one more podcast for you to close out the year. John Carpenter's The Fog is rolling in, and it is filled with vengeful ghosts. But those ghosts deserve their revenge. And those townspeople deserve to die. Ryan and Nathan also muse about Revenge Movies and have some winter weather tips for you. Thanks for listening.

It's Christmas Eve, so that must mean it is time for us to look at John Carpenter's Halloween . This was the hit that paved the way for his career. But is it even good? Nathan takes the unpopular position and grumps his way through this episode. Sorry?  If you'd like to send in some questions for future episodes (still plenty of John Carpenter left on the table), please email ryan@okvideo.ca or nathan@okvideo.ca You can also reach out to us on Instagram, okvideopodcast, and BlueSky, OKVideo.  -N Palm Trees in Illinois

 Let's kick off of newest batch as we look at some of the films of John Carpenter, maybe the greatest independent filmmaker of all time(?). We're starting with his first break out hit, Assault on Precinct 13. A small grindhouse-style film made with all the talent of someone who always elevates his genre content. Join us!

For the 90s Cyberpunk batch, it's time to get ranked! Nathan and Ryan have come to the end of another batch and as always it's time for them to revisit each film and discuss their rankings. It's a time of reflection, a time of revulsion and a time for revolution?!? Well at least for the characters in a slew of the films we watched.

What is The Matrix ? Well, it's pretty much the culmination of the cyberpunk wave of the 1990s so we had to give it due consideration as part of retrospective.

 We're back! And we're continuing our 90s Cyberpunk batch with the film Brainscan, starring John Connor...I mean Edward Furlong. Will he be able to pull off video game levels of sneak? Will he be able to hook up with a girl inappropriately older than him? You'll have to tune in to find out.
