We're also talking about the 2010 breakthrough feature from Gareth Edwards, Monsters. Blood for Dust is available in theaters on on digital this Friday, April 19th.

This has been a long time coming for us here at Overdue Rentals. One of our top guests we wanted to speak to has always been Dylan Baker. And one of the top choices we wanted to talk to him about was the 1991 John Candy starring, Delirious. Well, the day has finally come. Dylan joins us to talk about his new film, LaRoy, Texas; which is out in theaters and OnDemand this Friday, April 12th. But as mentioned already, we then get to talk to him about working with John Candy, Raymond Burr, Emma...

Though almost everyone in the world knows the man, many people still haven't seen David Dastmalchian in his purest form. Through his collaborations with such pioneers as Christopher Nolan, Denis Villeneuve, and James Gunn (to name a few), his face has been plastered into the minds of movie goers everywhere. But there are many sides of Dastmalchian that many still haven't witnessed. So, whether it be in his new film Late Night with the Devil, or through his semi-autobiographical 2014 film...

If you're like us, you probably have seen a clip run across your social media feeds showing the time a TV show surprised and elderly man finding out the rest of the studio audience around him were the now grown children he helped save during the onset of WWII. That man was Nicholas Winton and the new film One Life is about the struggle Winton went through to save close to 1,000 children from being sent to concentration camps. Actor/musician Johnny Flynn plays Winton in his younger years while...

It's always a treat to have a great conversation with a guest. But our chat with the great Thomas Haden Church takes things to a whole new level.

Though most people will associate Alex Winter with his performance as Bill S. Preston, Esq. in the Bill & Ted series, he has done so much great work both in front and behind the camera over the years.

Alex is one of the greatest people to chat with and he has so many wonderful things to say, including some uplifting news on a possible official return of...

Happy November! Let's kick off the month right with the one and only Neil Burger. His new film, The Marsh King's Daughter is out this Friday, November 3rd. But we are also talking about this week's Overdue Rental, his 2011 sleeper hit, Limitless. The Bradley Cooper/Robert DeNiro thriller was such a smash hit when it hit theaters and though it spawned a TV show of the same name, not enough people are talking about the film nowadays. Let's fix that! --- Support this podcast:...

He rode the world's fastest train, been body slammed by wrestlers, defeated rollercoasters, passed out from the G-Force of a centrifuge, eaten garlic bread that has been to the stratosphere; but today will be the toughest challenge he has faced, yet. YouTube presenter and host of the Lateral Podcast Tom Scott will talk about movies with Matt and Mike. Well, he's talking about a single movie, at least.

Where do we even start!? Bank robberies, Children's parties, Tasks, Ghosts, and Denzel--that just scratches the surface of what we are talking about with the one and only, Kiell Smith-Bynoe. From his role as Mike in the original BBC version of Ghosts (the character of Jay is his counterpart in the American version) to his recent stint as a contestant on series 15 of Taskmaster, Kiell shows no signs of slowing down his killer career. He recentley revived his stage show, String V. Spitta...

What a perfect storm of consequences. The legendary film maker Steve James is back with a new documentary, A Compassionate Spy.

Dennis Haysbert is someone everyone is familiar with, even if they don't know it. Maybe you know him as Pedro Cerrano from Major League. Maybe you're a 24 fan and know him as President David Palmer. Or maybe you just know him as The Allstate insurance man. The fact of the matter is, the man has had one hell of a storied career and is so much more than the roles people may associate him with. He can currently be seen as Clarence C. Baker in the Hulu/Disney+ picture, Flamin' Hot. The film...

The 2023 Harlem Film Festival is kicking off this weekend in New York City and we were lucky enough to be joined by Doug E.

In the long span of film history there have always been releases that were deemed controversial upon their release. Catherine Hardwicke's directorial debut, Thirteen, was definitely one of those films that was met with a lot of backlash thinking it was glamourizing aspects of teenage life that it certainly wasn't. You couldn't turn a corner at the time of its release without hearing the buzz around the movie, whether is was for or against it. We had the opportunity to revisit the film with...
