The Uncut Gems Podcast - Episode 76 (Alligator and Lake Placid)
The Uncut Gems PodcastThe Uncut Gems Podcast is a show where a bunch of like-minded individuals gather around a virtual table to discuss films that for one reason or another have become forgotten. Tongues pressed firmly in cheek, the team don their film historian top hats and rant from sedentary positions to hopefully conclude whether the film in question deserves to be covered by sands of time or if it is a classic in dire need of attention.
In this episode of the show we are continuing Animal Attack Summer and we talk reptiles. This week we are discussing the 1980 Alligator and the 1999 Lake Placid. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us opine on the legacy of Jaws yet again, the Corman-adjacent filmmakers carrying the animal attack torch, the pitfalls of corporate villains, Robert Forster as a Bullitt wannabe, Bridget Fonda's potty mouth, Betty White's potty mouth, Oliver Platt's potty mouth, Brendan Gleeson's creepy pick-up lines and that croc that - as tradition requires - would not work half the time. Join us and get ready to croc and roll!
