The VAULT-CAST: The Official Podcast of THE B-MOVIE FILM VAULT

The official podcast of www.bmoviefilmvault.com! Hosts Jordan Garren ("The Vault Master") and "Silent" Steve Oldford, discuss a wide variety of topics, revolving around film and pop culture. Though we do branch out and discuss A-list Hollywood films, we generally focus on b-cinema. And somehow, we almost always shoehorn Godzilla into the conversation!

Vault-Cast Episode 14 artwork.Freddy vs. Jason, Alien vs. Predator, King Kong vs. Godzilla. Fun? Absolutely. Fundamentally flawed? You betcha!

For this short episode of the Vault-Cast, your hosts venture into the troublesome realm of "Versus movies." We discuss why they don't always seem to work, and offer up some ideas on how to fix these types of films in the future. Naturally we do this while tossing back a few cold ones, so yes, we do ramble about Godzilla and Star Wars, and take the occasional potshot at one another.

Recorded on the open road late last year, this is a review for the (somewhat divisive) SHIN GOJIRA (aka SHIN GODZILLA, GODZILLA: RESURGENCE). Your friendly neighborhood Vault Master and his chatty cohost "Silent" Steve, dive into what works and what doesn't in Japan's latest entry into the ongoing GODZILLA franchise!

Note: Sorry for the background noise - we did our best to make it less noticeable.

Your friendly neighborhood podcasters, Jordan & "Silent" Steve are back, with our first new show of 2015! Recorded back in January (whoops!), this episode of the VAULT-CAST has us looking back (somewhat fondly) at 2014, where we met some childhood heroes, and saw some kick-ass movies!

We also discuss the films we're most excited for in 2015, and, since we did this one totally on the fly, we're all over the map! We go off on tangents left and right, but had a fun time doing so.

VAULT-CAST: Episode VIII - Guardians of the Awesome

Jordan and "Silent" Steve rave about Marvel's GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY in our eighth podcast!

This episode is entirely dedicated to James Gunn's awesome tale of lonely misfits pulling together to save the galaxy from a power-mad Kree alien named Ronan the Accuser. The Marvel cinematic universe went cosmic, and we thank the movie gods that they took this bold move!

Have a listen and see what we had to say about what we consider to be the BEST MOVIE OF 2014!

VAULT-CAST Episode VII: Universal Monster Squad

In this VAULT-CAST, Jordan and "Silent" Steve decided to tackle the forefathers of modern horror and monster movies: THE UNIVERSAL MONSTERS!

We discuss our love of the characters and the films, and ponder why they remain so popular and timeless after all these decades. Then we shift gears from Universal's stable of movie monsters, to Fred Dekker's THE MONSTER SQUAD. This classic '80s flick is a love letter to the classic Universal Monsters, and features a strong cast, great script, and great makeup f/x from the late Stan Winston.

Finally we do another "Cultural Movie Exchange:" Steve had to watch BEST WORST MOVIE and Jordan had to watch LAWRENCE OF ARABIA.

VAULT-CAST Episode VI: Dawn of the Road to the Monster Dog

In this podcast, Jordan and the ironically named "Silent" Steve march into the forbidden zone and discuss PLANET OF THE APES. We talk about the original films, briefly touch upon the Tim Burton remake debacle, and the decent 2011 reboot, then sing praises for DAWN OF THE PLANET OF THE APES. (Easily one of the best films of 2014!)

After that, we unveil our first ever CULTURAL MOVIE EXCHANGE where we share (or inflict) films on one another that we haven't seen before! In our first round, I had to watch the dark, joyless, and utterly depressing THE ROAD, while Steve had to suffer through a quirky obscurity called MONSTER DOG! (Featuring Alice Cooper in the lead role!)

To cap things off, we discussed many of the news and rumors from San Diego Comic Con and look towards 2015, which will hopefully be an amazing year for all of us nerds!
Thanks for listening!

VAULT-CAST Episode V: Transformers Age of Ex-Stink-tion

In this episode, Jordan and "Silent Steve" discuss Michael Bay's TRANSFORMERS: AGE OF EXTINCTION! It's loud, dumb, too long, and way too convoluted! But it also has DINOBOTS! Did Jordan enjoy it? Will he convince Steve to see it? Hit play and find out for yourself!

VAULT-CAST Episode IV: THE JAWS LEGACY

We're gonna need a bigger podcast...

Recorded back on June 20th, this episode of the VAULT-CAST celebrates the 39th Anniversary of Steven Spielberg's JAWS. We kick things off with some news about Disney's upcoming 7th Star Wars film, Max Landis' idea for a Ghostbusters 3 intro, and the Shredder design for the upcoming TMNT film. (Lotsa old news!)

Then we dive in and praise JAWS, which is arguably one of the best films ever made. We discuss its themes, share some trivia, and wax nostalgic about our personal experiences with the film.

Finally, we round out this restrospective podcast by taking a brief look at the JAWS sequels, and many of the films inspired by Spielberg's landmark film. (e.g. Alligator, Piranha, Grizzly, etc.)

If you enjoyed this MEGA-podcast, or any of our previous episodes, please let us know! Thanks for listening!

We send birthday greetings to Sir Christopher Lee and the late and great Vincent Price, do a quick(ish) overview of 2014's Summer Blockbusters, and cap things off with an in-depth discussion about KING KONG and it's sequels, reboots, and two Japanese films. We also rank the Kong flicks from best to worst!

VAULT-CAST Episode I: Return of the King... Of the Monsters!

In this first episode of our show, B-Movie Film Vault webmaster Jordan Garren and fellow Godzilla enthusiast Steve Oldford discuss Gareth Edwards' reboot of everyone's favorite kaiju!

We both loved the movie, so we heap praise upon it, defend it from its detractors, and surmise what the future holds, for what is now a trilogy!

Warning: There are lots of spoilers; avoid listening to this if you haven't seen the movie yet!
