Episode 14: Venom

Pile of bodies, pile of heads! This week’s podcast episode takes us deep into the life of a gruesome serial killer with a passion for riding motorcycles, climbing up to high places and murdering dozens of police officers who are only trying to help. Can a peaceful out-of-work gotcha journalist find happiness sharing a body with a murder demon? More importantly, can this ridiculous story kick-start a whole new cinematic universe?

I’m joined once again by Anthony Strand of Tough Pigs and the Muppet movie podcast Movin’ Right Along, who displays his amazing stupid-voice impersonation skills as we squelch our way through an extremely silly movie.

The podcast is available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, YouTube, Overcast, Audible and lots of other places. Come check it out!

  1. Part 1 made it sound like it leans more towards sci and horror so I had to take a look. It felt like “The Blob” (gooey alien) and “The Brain From Planet Arous” (body-hijacking aliens battling for dominance) were put in a blender and this oozed out. I watched in 3D and the sinuous/blobuous creatures looked pretty good, and the final goo-down (showdown) was a nice touch. I kind of want to see the sequel.

  2. a round of applause. I have not seen “Venom” but won’t belabor why here. What I do get is Anthony’s enthusiasm for risks taken by the movie, and the context of where this fits in with the comics-super-film world. I’m still shocked prestige actor Michelle Williams did this movie as a second player, but maybe the chance to watch Hardy go was reason enough.
