Friday, 20 March, 2026
Fresh from returning from this year’s SXSW Film Festival, Erik Childress returns to review six movies with Steve Prokopy. They range from Mena Suvari as Elizabeth Bathory (Vampires of the Velvet Lounge) to a documentary on feminine representation in genre films (1000 Women In Horror). Rose Byrne is a homeless woman who loses her car (Tow) while Samara Weaving plays another deadly game of hide and seek (Ready or Not 2: Here I Come) and podcasters get some horrific audio problems (Undertone). Finally, Ryan Gosling goes into space to save the planet, but it is about the friend he makes along the way (Project Hail Mary).1:22 - Vampires of the Velvet Lounge11:21 - 1000 Women In Horror20:17 - Tow26:40 - Ready or Not 2: Here I Come36:11 - Undertone45:23 - Project Hail MaryCLICK ON THE FILMS TO RENT OR PURCHASE AND HELP OUT THE MOVIE MADNESS PODCAST OR BUY FROM MOVIEZYNGBe sure to check outErik’s Weekly Box Office Column – At Rotten TomatoesCritics’ Classics Series – At Elk Grove Cinema in Elk Grove Village, ILChicago Screening Schedule - All the films coming to theaters and streamingPhysical Media Schedule - Click & Buy upcoming titles for your library.(Direct purchases help the Movie Madness podcast with a few pennies.)Erik’s Linktree - Where you can follow Erik and his work anywhere and everywhere.The Movie Madness Podcast has been recognized by Million Podcasts as one of the Top 100 Best Movie Review Podcasts as well as in the Top 60 Film Festival Podcasts and Top 100 Cinephile Podcasts.
