Complimentary Cinema
Ken O'Malley and Brian McGarry
What started out as two average guys working a retail job together and talking about movies to make time go by faster has evolved into two average guys talking about movies on the internet for strangers to enjoy. In our podcast Complimentary Cinema, we watch movies that are available to watch for free on the internet so that anyone who wants to listen can watch them as well. Sometimes the movies are terrible garbage, and sometimes we find legitimately interesting movies. Roll the dice on quality with us as we endeavor to bring you our discussion about these awful, okay, or great movies, and watch them for free!

The few people and parts which could have a better purpose are squandered. Tune in this week as we discuss the movie and come up with better ideas for a Robocop sequel. #robocop #podcast #complimentary #cinema #moviereview #filmreview #omstockroom

Episode #24: Jessabelle (2014)
We can all learn a lot from Jessabelle. You should not be distracted while you drive. If you ever find out that there is a mystery surrounding a death in your family, you should not investigate it. If you have a creepy ghost woman appear in the tub with you, never take a bath again. This southern take on an old-fashioned conjuring kept us interested from start to finish. Listen this week as we dissect the Haitian hoodoo inspired Jessabelle.

Should you Be Afraid? Probably not if it involves this movie! This attempt at a mysterious and creepy movie falls flat fairly quickly in the face of poor writing and acting. At least the town it was filmed in looked nice! Join us this week as we laugh and cry our way through a movie where  the only thing to fear is wasting some of our precious time!

Episode #19: Mars Attacks (1996)
What can you do when the inhabitants of Mars invade? Kick back and watch a movie so silly and ridiculous that it actually says a lot about America and the absurdity of our lives. Mars Attacks is an action-comedy movie that may not have been fully appreciated in its time, but holds up today as an example of cross-genre movies that use the strengths of each to enhance the final product.
