Special Features 016: Bottle Rocket (promo)

Posted on June 28, 2018 by producers

Movie Podcast Network proudly presents Special Features Episode 019! Matt (The Sci-fi Podcast, We Deal in Lead) and Jason (We Deal in Lead) finally get around to discussing one of the best films to come out of the 90s – BOTTLE ROCKET.

Wes Anderson, director of some of the most beloved, quirky comedies over the past twenty years, directs his first (and arguably best) movie in Bottle Rocket. The simple yet effective film paved the way for many copycats and inspired filmmakers, and continues to impress and hold up more than twenty years later.

Featuring the Wilson brothers (Owen, Luke, Andrew) and legendary actor James Caan, the cast is rounded out by a number of excellent supporting cast members, each of which serve as a memorable part of the story. Bottle Rocket is quotable, easy to watch, and best of all the launching pad for the careers of several impressive actors and filmmakers alike.

This 5 Minutes of Horror short-form show is an appendage of Horror Movie Podcast, where we’re Dead Serious About Horror Movies. During this episode Jay of the Dead brings you The 10 Most Essential American Horror Movies That Best Represent the Genre.

The idea for this recording was inspired by Sarah, Jay’s friend who recently asked him which Horror films she should watch this October. Sarah hadn’t seen most of the universally acclaimed classics yet, so Jay attempts to provide a time-capsule snapshot of the 10 Horror films that could most closely represent American Horror Cinema.
