Boston SciFi Presents – Details, episodes & analysis

Memory implants, replicants, alternative realities, and fake reality - these are some of the elements that make stories by Philip K Dick resonant decades after his death, and what makes them fodder for 'high concept' Hollywood films. Join author/crtic Hope Madden & film programmer Melissa Starker as Boston SciFi Presents UNIVERSAL MEMORIES: The Films of Philip K Dick. Garen Daly is the host, who apologies in advance for getting Harlan Ellison and Philip K Dick mixed up in his addled brain. 

Also please note, Boston SciFi uses movie clips to illustrate points discussed. Sometimes there will be sound, but no voices.

Kick back. Take a long slow toke and hold it, while Boston SciFi takes a close eye to stoner films. From REEFER MADNESS to the BIG LEBOWSKI, we'll ride the arc of fear all the way to laid back coolness. We talk film, but also the political, cultural and changing currents of cannabis. Joining us is Joyce Gerber, creator of THE CANNA MOM SHOW and Alex Degroot, co-founder of THE GOODS, a dispensary store. As usual Garen Daly MCs while Mark Sherwood directs, and Irene Leite produces.  You can exhale now.

Prometheus was a Titan who stole fire from the Gods and gave it to humanity.  Ever since then,  humans have grappled with the ambivalence of technological advancement and the sometimes inherent destructiveness of that which was created. This is no more evident than in films about, or featuring atomic bombs. From THE BEGINNING OF THE END (1947) to OPPENHEIMER  (2023)  movies have showed our intimate feelings about what we hath wrought. And now, there is a new technological advancement that threatens something more than just fire, how we think. Join MC Garen Daly along with film programmer Melissa Starker and film director Dave Gianacola as they open the bomb bay doors and drop a new podcast.

Some fo the films discussed: Gojira, Blast from the Past, Terminator 2,  DR Strangelove and more

Something happened to movies in the 1980s. There was a sudden spate of cheaply made, sometimes poorly acted films centered around bloody deaths. The slasher movie hit the screen and it struck deep into our collective psyche. Here to read the entrails and enlighten us is film director Hope Madden (Obstacle Corpse) and Boston Hassle Film critic Alexis den Boggende. So kick back and enjoy. Oh, I wouldn't go into the basement if I were you.
