  • Great Podcast!

    I have listened to this podcast from the start. Love it. Support it whenever I can. I do the Patreon. I don’t always agree with Bill and Mr Chris. I’m sure they wouldn’t always agree with me! And that’s ok. It’s like having a couple of friends each week to talk the movies you love… or hate. They review the movies; not necessarily the presentations, for which, these days, there are. Numerous methods of watching with numerous degrees of quality. They are obviously long time friends, and while they... more

  • Great Podcast! But… Rev Scott no more!

    I have listened to this podcast from the start. Love it. Support it whenever I can. I do the Patreon. I don’t always agree with Bill and Mr Chris. I’m sure they wouldn’t always agree with me! But that’s ok. At least they watch the movies about which they speak and review. I used to enjoy and have a modicum amount of respect for the Reverend Scott until the latest episode. I don’t think I can listen to him anymore after this. I will now turn the show off before his segment airs. Thankfully it is ... more

  • Paddy Chayefsky was a man

    Love the show but i couldnt find a way to communicate with you guys on the website...just wanted to state maybe a little more wiki research pre-show recording might be a good thing. The point being while I was listening to this ep#638 on Altered States, the script writer Paddy Chayefsky, who died in 1981 btw, was actually male. You must have assumed hearing Patty-that Paddy was female and called him- she, during your show! Cmon guys.

    Small, but important quibble i think.

    keep up the esoteric wo... more

Frequently Asked Questions About Outside the Cinema

What is Outside the Cinema about and what kind of topics does it cover?

Two long-running hosts dissect cult, genre, and exploitation cinema with a mix of personal stories, production trivia, and audience-driven picks. Episodes routinely pair two reviewed titles—often cult, strange, or retro—with banter, live listener contributions, and recurring segments. A notable strength is the easygoing, long-form format that invites deep dives into obscure films, production quirks, and the broader cult cinema ecosystem, along with occasional guest appearances and crossovers into related pop culture topics. The show's charm lies in its relaxed, opinionated camaraderie, its willingness to cover under-the-radar titles, and a vibrant listener community that engages via Patreon and live streams.
