Spoilerpiece Theatre Episode 213: BlacKkKlansman

“Spoilerpiece Theatre” is a weekly movie podcast where I talk about new releases with fellow BOFCA critics Dave Riedel and Kris Jenson. We don’t give a shit about spoilers. We just want to talk about the movies.

In Episode 213 below, we review Blindspotting, Psycho, Rat Race, Like Father, Set It Up, The Meg, and BlacKkKlansman. It’s a whole heaping helping of Spoilerpiece this week! First up is Dave who catches us up on Blindspotting (2:51), which you absolutely must see before it leaves theaters. Next up, I describe my first time watching two very different movies: Psycho (10:59) and Rat Race (16:39). Dave and I checked out two of the biggest Netflix exclusive flicks of the moment, Like Father and Set It Up (22:55). Then it’s on to the new releases, as Kris reviews The Meg (35:42), where Jason Statham fights an ancient, gigantic shark (you know what you’re getting into). Closing out the episode is Dave with BlacKkKlansman (50:18), based on an incredible but true story that connects America’s current racial tensions to the past it refuses to acknowledge (even if you know the story, you have no idea what you’re getting into).

Evan Crean

Hello! My name is Evan Crean. By day I work for a marketing agency, but by night, I’m a film critic based in Boston, MA. Since 2009, I have written hundreds of movie reviews and celebrity interviews for Starpulse.com. I have also contributed pieces to NewEnglandFilm.com and to The Independent, as a writer and editor. I maintain an active Letterboxd account too. In addition to publishing short form work, I am a co-author of the book Your ’80s Movie Guide to Better Living, which is available on CreateSpace and Amazon. The book is the first in a series of lighthearted self-help books for film fans, which distills advice from ’80s movies on how to tackle many of life’s challenges. On top of writing, I co-host and edit the weekly film podcast Spoilerpiece Theatre with two other Boston film critics. I’m a founding member and the current treasurer for the Boston Online Film Critics Association as well.
