So, here it is: the final episode of Clash of the Titles. And we’re going out with the biggest bang imaginable.

In the second half of our final destructive duel, we’re casting a cautious eye over 1997’s Volcano, which stars a dismissive Tommy Lee Jones looking suspiciously at manhole covers and literally laughing in the various faces of science. We have yet more disputes around basic volcanic terminology, all while the volcano itself manages to solve racist tensions marring the town. Ah, the movies…

Thank you to everyone who has listened to Clash over the past four and a half years. Be sure to have a peruse of our extensive back catalogue to hear us natter on about loads of movies you love - and plenty you might not.

For the final instalment of Clash of the Titles, there was only one movie matchup we could do: the very films that the entire show was pitched on back in 2019. Oddly, they’re a bit rubbish - but hilarious fun to talk about!

We’re comparing two disastrous natural disasters from 1997, as Volcano takes on today’s topic of eruption discussion: Dante’s Peak. A bitter volcanologist - whose sworn enemy is an actual volcano - gets a shot at vengeance when a huge eruption threatens to wipe out the entire town he’s just stumbled across. Bonus points for insisting on being saved before the women and children in his custody.

We'll be back with the final episode of Clash of the Titles this Thursday!

Batters up! Stepping up to the plate this week are two sickly/sweet romcoms disguised as sports dramas. Firstly, Kevin Costner and Susan Sarandon swap RBI’s for romance in 1988’s Bull Durham! 

Kevin wrestles with his love for America’s diamond (the baseball field), as he and Tim Robbins pitch for Sarandon’s affections amidst the hard knocks of suburban North Carolina. This film actually once topped Sports Illustrated’s list of the greatest sports movies of all time - not that the plot, character development or dialogue would suggest such a thing. Let’s play!

It’s time for this week’s part two and taking the spotlight today is no other than Orphan (2009). After the death of their unborn child a couple adopt a nine-year-old girl Vera from an orphanage, when things suddenly take a turn for the worst…

Vera starts showing signs of violent and disturbing behaviour. But the real question is: are they up to the horror child standard set by Macaulay Culkin earlier this week? Listen in to find out who takes the disturbing-child-film crown!
