Episode 370 - Mayfair Witches S1E1-2

The podcast takes a witchy turn this week as Reanimated looks into its cauldron at The Mayfair Witches on AMC. We try to remember everything we know about the books that we loved so much.

Episode 369 - Renfield

Reanimated went to the movies for this episode and took in the Robert Kirkman-penned Renfield! What a hoot! Between the physical performances from Nicholas Hoult and Awkwafina, the pure comedic genius of Ben Schwartz and sheer presence of Shohreh Aghdashloo and Nicolas Cage, there was something for everyone. Also, there were gouts of blood.

Episode 368 - The Trip (Le Périple)

The French film The Trip was an actual trip in this episode of Reanimated. We had so many questions but ultimately none of them mattered as much as this film being able to keep us entertained, which it did! against all odds.

Episode 367 - Brain Freeze (2021)

Class warfare, environmentalism, corporate greed and parenting were all on the docket this week on the podcast with the Canadian film Brain Freeze. Come with us as we navigate the back nine in the dead of winter.

Episode 366 - Re-Animator (1985)

H.A. Conrad emerged from her covid cocoon to record this episode of the podcast wherein we took a look at the cult film Re-Animator (no relation). It's pretty fun, except for the part that Conrad had to fast forward.

Episode 365 - Encore episode on the novel World War Z by Max Brooks

Hey reanimators - some of us are chugging Heineken in front of a Vermeer painting while asking people to alsjeblieft, so it's time for a trip down memory lane on the pod! We offer you a recording from ancient times, May 25, 2013, in which two fresh-faced podcasters discussed Max Brooks' World War Z and the upcoming Brad Pitt film. Simpler times.

Episode 364: The Last of Us S1E8-9 ’When we are in need’ and ’Look for the light’

That's all she wrote for the first season of The Last of Us season 1. Reanimated breaks down the final two episodes in this podcast, with discussion on Joel's 'I've done all the sidequests' endgame prowess and how that translates into television and then a rousing discussion on the morality of how those last 15 minutes of the finale unfold.

Episode 360 - The Last of Us S1E2 - Infected

We're back this episode for more reveling in The Last of Us. Not only did this episode have a stellar cold open set in Jakarta, it brought us face to face with the clickers with great effect. We also said goodbye to one of our core cast with a very tender (you might even say it was a tendril) moment.

Episode 358 - Juan of the Dead

This one has been on our list since the earliest days of Reanimated and it was great to visit Havana, albeit in the middle of a zombie apocalypse. This film puts a wacky cast together with a lot of jokes, political satire about Cuba and zombies and honestly lands in some new territory, so that made it a lot of fun to watch. There was also a bunch of new trailers that dropped last week so we dug into Renfield, Blood, Evil Dead: Rise and some other tidbits.

Episode 357 - Interview with the Vampire S1E7

We sank our teeth into the final episode of the season in this episode. Sure we have our little gripes here and there but overall, this show really works on a lot of levels. Looking forward to a second season!

Jan 02, 202354 minEp. 357

Episode 356 - Interview with the Vampire E5-6

More vampires and their draaama this week as Louis' and Lestat's romance turns into something unsavory and Claudia scratches out her own personality somewhere in the middle. The show continues to do a great job, both in Dubai and New Orleans.

Dec 26, 202249 minEp. 356

Episode 355 - Interview with the Vampire E3-4

We rise up out of our coffins for two more episodes of Interview with the Vampire this week. The differences between the original novel and this show are myriad but there's no denying the strength of this show, this cast and the updates that they've woven in. Have a listen with us!

Dec 21, 202244 minEp. 355

Episode 354 - Interview with the Vampire E1-2

Turns out our hosts were both big Anne Rice fans in their tenderer youths, no surprise there, so it's with no small amount of nostalgia that Reanimated is taking a look at the AMC series Interview with a Vampire. So far so good! The show clearly updates the original 1976 novel in some great ways.

Episode 353 - The Walking Dead Series Finale - S11E24 - Rest in Peace

This one had us feeling some emotions. Through all the ups and downs, we'd stuck with this show for 12 years, and it had stayed around and ended on a fairly high note. We'll see how the walking dead universe maintains next year, but there's plenty of meat left on the zombie genre for now.

Episode 352 - The Walking Dead S11 E22- Faith and E23 - Family

We doubled up on seconds of Thanksgiving dinner and TWD episodes this week with the season marching like a herd of walkers toward its inevitable conclusion while we hapless audience members are carried along. Lots of fun in these two episodes, as well as some questions about Mercer's planning abilities and critiques of the lengthy closeups of Daryl's facial scar. Join us!

Nov 27, 20221 hr 6 minEp. 352

Episode 351: TWD S11E21 - The Outpost

Here's a well put together episode with some great moments between characters who really needed to have a little dialog together, all placed against some fresh backdrops of scenarios we haven't seen in this show yet. Check it out!

Nov 20, 202250 minEp. 351

Episode 350 - TWD S11E20 - What’s Been Lost

This week on podcast we celebrate the news of the release date for The Last of Us on Jan. 15. Hurray! We also talk about What's Been Lost, directed by Aisha Tyler, a solid episode. Any episode with Melissa McBride and Josh Hamilton bouncing off each other is a good one. Check it out with us!

Episode 349 - TWD S11E19 -Variant

Variant finally reintroduces the climby, doorknob-friendly, rock-wielding zombies that the show featured in season one, back before they were having discussions about continuity or "what can our zombies even do?" So to close that loop, they're bringing them back. OK, we can get behind that. Our commonwealth friends are in hot water and our B-plot wagoneers take a trip to renaissance town. It's a fun episode featuring some great lines of dialog and emotionally charged moments - also zombie killin...

Oct 30, 202251 minEp. 349

Episode 348 - TWD S11E18 - A New Deal

Happy Founder's Day! Let's all celebrate Governor Milton and Sebastian and their glorious leadership of the Commonwealth. You'd think with a name like Common Wealth, they might be a little less cringey with their monocle-wearing elitism, but hey at least they have gladiatorial combat.

Oct 16, 202246 minEp. 348

Episode 347 - TWD S11E17 - Lockdown

It's starting to sink in that these are the final eight episodes of The Walking Dead prime show. This installment brings Hornsby some fresh, terrible wounds, which is nice. Josh Hamilton continues to delight and surprise us with his turn as a fiendish all around bad guy. We also talk about how vampires and witches seem to be having a bit of a moment and that's cool.

Episode 346 - Day Shift

Reanimated goes hunting for some uber vamps with Day Shift on Netflix. This was a fun movie, with great action and world building, but left us wishing there was more character development for some of the supporting cast. Would watch more Dave Franco and Jamie Foxx buddy cop movies.

Oct 02, 202228 minEp. 346

Episode 345 - Tales of the Walking Dead - Davon & La Doña

We close out Tales of the Walking Dead with two more genre-bending episodes this week on the show - Davon and La Doña which take us into some Tales from the Crypt territory. Ms. Conrad spills the beans about the PPP easter egg prime show crossover and the amount of story hooks for the main show or another anthology really just keeps piling up. Have a listen!
