The monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd. James Adamson is a slightly obsessive armchair fan, giving you his take on the world of cinema. So are his co hosts: James Adamson, his imaginatively named son, and Alan Bayles, a sci fi author, fellow film nerd and fellow Sunderland fan. As well as a look at news, new releases and how we’re fitting in movie watching with our busy exciting lives, we look into classic films we haven't seen yet and overlooked hidden gems you need to see, ask remakes to justify their existence or be wiped from history and offer parole hearings to bad films that need to be remade to fix their flaws.

Continuing Issue 64 of the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd. Now it's Classics and Hidden Gems, where we watch a great film one or both of us hasn't seen before, then tell you about a lesser-known film you should get round to watching. The Classic this time is 1995's iconic crime thriller The Usual Suspects which Alan is watching for the first time. For the Hidden Gem we tell you about an 80s home video rental stalwart, F/X: Murder By Illusion.
This issue's Double Reel Monthly is already out and the Remakes Tribunal will drop next week.
