Winter-themed movies!
Brrr, it’s cold out there! ❄️ On this episode, Dori and Kpolly lean into the freezing Wisconsin temperatures by discussing their favorite harsh winter movies . Forget the cozy blankets; for the full experience, the hosts suggest cracking a window while you watch these "could be worse" cinematic picks. The duo dives into bone-chilling thrillers like A Simple Plan and the iconic horror of The Shining . You’ll hear fun facts about Jack Nicholson’s pre-filming cheese sandwich diet, the 60 doors destroyed for the "Here's Johnny" scene, and the 900 tons of salt used for snow. They also explore the snowy landscapes of Fargo , the alien terror of The Thing , and the unusual quest in Kumiko, the Treasure Hunter . If the frostbite is getting to be too much, Dori offers a brief reprieve with the quaint charm of The Holiday , while Christopher brings the laughs with the horror-comedy Werewolves Within . From the ice planet Hoth in The Empire Strikes Back — featuring the Norwegian mountain ski team as extras — to Liam Neeson battling wolves in The Gray , this episode covers it all. Grab some matzo ball soup, huddle close to your speakers, and join the misery as we celebrate the best of winter cinema! ##### Cinebuds is sponsored by Joe Wilde Garage Door Company .
