Mike and I have a blog together with some friends where we review movies, music, books, and other stuff. It's called Liar Society.


We recently decided to run a podcast series on the site. Theme for episode one is "Childhood Revisited." Each of us re-watched a beloved movie from our childhood, and one we hated. In the podcast, we discuss whether our opinions have changed over time. If you grew up in the 80s' like we did, you might get a kick out of it. We talk about the following films:

Herbie the Love Bug (loved by Mike)
E.T. (hated by Mike)
Watcher in the Woods and Bedknobs & Broomsticks (loved by me)
Burnt Offerings (hated by me - who knows why I was allowed to watch this anyway??)
The Great Muppet Caper (hated by Barak)
Krull (loved by Barak)
Airplane (hated by Aaron)
Close Encounters (loved by Aaron)

Check it out at

And if you listen to the cast...please don't blame me for the Knight Rider references!

Ha! Fun stuff ~ I actually saw watcher in the woods as an adult - drawn in by the presence of Bette Davis ("you're a vile sour little bitch!" - nothing beats hush, hush. sweet charlotte...) and also thought it was fab. I also used to love Something Wicked This Way Comes and Children of the Corn (which I rented relentlessly with the permission of my dad...thanks dad). (Interloper!!!! I still love it.)

Yeah, um, Burnt Offernings is a little tough for kidlets, perhaps - as it is in many ways more realistic than, say, Children of the Corn.

The Cat from Outer Space (which I recently found and bought for my kids) and Escape to Witch Mountain (which I have not come across yet) were other faves from my childhood.

By the way - Evil Twin was recently in the "binghamton Underground" rotation. far out.
