2 Guys 5 Movies
The podcast features two ordinary but knowledgeable film fans who examine film, past and present, through top five lists and retrospectives.
What 2 Guys 5 Movies is All About
Hi, all! 2 Guys 5 Movies, a long-form film podcast, will be entering its third full year in 2022. The "primary" podcast features top five lists from various genres and subgenres. We have a wide range in our over 130 episodes. In 2020, we also added a weekly "supplemental" podcast, The Quick Cage, where co-host Frank Pellicone watched and reviewed every Nicolas Cage movie during an 23-month span. In 2022, a new supplemental podcast will begin weekly called The Spin Chagrin, where a ludicrous subgenre will be chosen randomly and Frank will have to watch and review the movie. This will be in addition to the main feed, where we will continue with extensive looks in top five lists.

2 Guys 5 Movies continues their journey through 1970s horror with the year of 1973. Frank's list for the year includes the Christopher Lee/Peter Cushing films, The Satanic Rites of Dracula and The Creeping Flesh, the legendary William Friedkin possession film, The Exorcist, John Hough's The Legend of Hell House, and Robin Hardy's The Wicker Man. I mistakenly refer to this episode as 146, and I hadn't even been drinking yet.
