The Uncut Gems Podcast - Episode 99 (Leviathan)



The Uncut Gems Podcast

The 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 discussing the 1989 Leviathan, a George P. Cosmatos-directed addition to the short run of horrors set under water. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us compare this movie to Deepstar Six and The Abyss, discuss Peter Weller's allure, debate which of these Alien knock-offs works better, wonder if the score isn't a bit too Christmasy for its own good and much more!

Tune in, follow, like and subscribe at your podcatcher of choice and be sure to follow the show on Twitter and Instagram as well! You can also support the show on Ko-fi! Also, be sure to subscribe to our Patreon for more exclusive podcasts.
