SuperCandid Classic: Episode 2 (Two), Hangman's Curse

(Originally posted on 16 March 2007 -ed.)

The second episode of the Super Candid Podcast, discussion of Christian movies, music and other media from a pair of Christians who are sick and tired of bad Christian movies, music and other media. This week's movie: Hangman's Curse. It's a teen spy film dealing with the occult, ghosts, goths, highschool drama, cliques, bullies and eight-legged freaks, but is it any good? Or is it yet another Christian movie that will insult not only your intelligence but your faith? Tune in to find out what our reviewers thought, as well as the latest Christian music and movie news, highlighting artists and films that might be overlooked if you only browse the most popular Christian releases.

Episode Forty Eight - The Climb

Here it is... another Billy Graham sponsored film. A title that has become somewhat of a benchmark of quality for Jon and I. If it's got the Billy G stamp, it can't be THAT bad. I forgot to mention a few things during this show: - Kyli Santiago (she plays Derriks girlfriend) is really cute. And should be in more movies than she is. - In an odd coincidence, we not only mention 'Different Strokes' during this episode, but Todd Bridges actually has a small part in this film! - We went the whole show without saying 'Zing!' (i think...) - Today is the 29th anniversary of Jons birth! Give him celebratory messages! Direct Download HERE. Here's the awesome cover for the new As Cities Burn album 'Hell or High Water', coming April 21st. (Bigger pic here) Email us at supercandid at gmail dot com

More admin stuff: New Feature!

I've added a new feature to the site. On the sidebar you'll notice a feature "SuperCandid's Best Christian Movies." This is a list of links to the podcasts for some of our favorite movies. I might put a list of our "Worst" movies, but it seems rather pointless.

I'm also starting a "SueprCandid Classic" series of posts, the first of which will be up later today. We had a few episodes before we got our blog here, so I'm migrating them from the dark recesses of Libsyn, where they currently reside. I'm trying to figure out how to put an easy access link to all our podcasts on the sidebar, but I haven't yet hit upon the best way to organize it.

Anyway, I hope you like the new changes and features! Keep the feedback coming, I'm always trying to keep this the best site for Christian Movie News & Reviews. Or at least the best it can be while I have 2 day jobs.

Vinegar Hill Picture Works

Want to hear a fun interview with some new Christian filmmakers? Then head over to "The Point," a sub-set of Breakpoint Prision Ministries has an interview with the two guys behind Vinegar Hill Picture Works.

Most of their work so far has been promotional video work, but they mention a couple of feature and/or narrative projects, including a movie about sex trafficing, abortion and a vacuum cleaner salesman. Hopefully they'll figure out a way to put all of those into the same movie! That'd be a crazy story!

Speaking of their promo videos, their work is really quite good. It has a great visual look, and the pieces generally have an interesting meditative tone. Appropriate I suppose for pieces made for church promos, but they are nice to watch, even if you don't know exactly what they are meant to be promoting. Their most recent is embeded at the bottom of this post.

They have some good comments in their interview, although I would say that using Uncle Tom's Cabin as an example of a story that addressed an issue by using a great story is a big mistake. For all its signifigance, Uncle Tom's Cabin is not the kind of story that lasts and endures; it is not a very good story.
