We are 200 episodes in and we start by looking at one of the most important directors in genre cinema. Steven Spielberg may not be the first director that comes to mind when it comes to indie or genre films, but if it were not for Jaws, the entire landscape of film would look different.  Despite his pedigree, his movies are not doing as well as they used to? Are we surprised?Spielberg's far-reaching influence is felt strongly in the first movie we cover this week. Tintorera from 1977 claims to be about a killer shark, but it would be more accurate to call it an orgy movie that happens to have a shark in it. The smell of baby oil fills the air as we talk about possibly the most perverted tiger shark ever, history's most well adjusted throuple, and some unironically well done underwater scenes. We also take a trip to Rancho Deluxe with Jeff Daniels and Sam Watterson. This 1975 movie is about a pair of cattle rustlers who come up with a scheme that will earn them a big score. The film came out during an interesting time. Westerns were on the decline but the hysteria surrounding truck drivers had yet to hit America. Rancho Deluxe does not always seem to know what it wants to be, but it also does not care.This leads to a grounded story that has some amazing moments of over the top acting, a great performance from Harry Dean Stanton, and Jimmy Buffett playing one of the best songs of his career. Rancho Deluxe is about independence, not taking things too seriously, and just living your life.Our 200th episode also includes an interview with filmmakers Aaron Moorhead and Justin Benson. The two are known for some of the most mind-bending genre films of the past decade. They talk about their latest movie, Something in the Dirt, shooting in Los Angeles, and non-traditional characters. All this, plus the latest genre news and the winner of our Alienoid giveaway!Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network.
