The Movie Loft PodcastAuthor: Tony, Phil, Thom
The Movie Loft Podcast features three Boston boys, Tony, Phil and Thom, in an old barn loft talking about '80s movies and memories. The name and premise is also a nod to a titular Boston institution, The Movie Loft, featuring Dana Hersey, which ran on WSBK TV-38 throughout our formative years. This project started as an excuse to capture our conversations for posterity. Highlighting a different movie in each episode, we revisit some long forgotten memories, and in the process weave together a documentary of our salad days. The point of this show is not to walk anyone through a movie scene by scene - were well aware youve been watching these flicks for decades. The aim is to discuss our deep appreciation for what it took to get each picture made, where we were when we experienced them, and how theyre a part of the zeitgeist of their times. Sure, we have some opinions, maybe even a few hot takes, but were really just here for your entertainment. Hopefully youll finish each episode feeling like you had a seat at our table.

Return Of The Living Dead 1985
Tuesday, 8 July, 2025
Send us a textJuly 3, 1984, 5:30 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time."Burt, I...I think things are gettin' outta hand!"If that isn't the understatement of the '80s. Return Of The Living Dead is serving up more brains, just in case all that mystery meat in them hotdogs you ate on the 4th whet your appetite. James Karen, Linnea Quigley, Clu Gulager and Don Calfa bring the heat in this comedy horror. Sure, pitting punks against zombies might be a staple of the genre now, but at the time it was a radical idea. Like chocolate and peanut butter, give me more please. Now!The heat in the barn made us a little lethargic on this July episode. If I didn't know any better, I might have thought there was some 2-4-5 Trioxin in the air.
