Scott Kurland loves musicals. Lillian "Lilz" Martin does NOT love musicals. Thus Scott has made it his goal to expose Lilz to movie musicals in an effort to find ones that connect with her. Sometimes it works. (Mostly not.) Share in their mutual frustration on Hell Is A Musical, available wherever podcasts can be found.Copyright Zero Science アート

  • 057 - Ride The Cyclone ("Ziggy Pawdust") (w/ Jon Reilly)
    2025/05/30
    Ride The Cyclone is a 2008 musical written by Canadian playwrights Jacob Richmond and Brooke Maxwell. It features a high-concept story of a quintet of High School choir students, plus one mystery teenager, who were killed while riding the Cyclone, a fictional malfunctioning roller coaster operating out of Uranium City in Saskatchewan. (Ride The Cyclone marks the second installment of Richmond's "Uranium Scream Teen Trilogy" of musical plays set in the exaggerated version of the town.) The musical follows a highly experimental format in which the six main characters reflect on their own demise in the afterlife, the collapse of their former boomtown home, and plead with an omnipotent fortune telling machine The Amazing Karnak to be allowed a second chance at living. The musical touches upon a wide assortment of musical styles, and features a loose and esoteric form of storytelling and plot. The musical was a critical success upon its release, developed a strong cult following, and would be performed in venues as varied as independent theaters to off-broadway.

    On a new episode of Hell Is A Musical, Lilz and Scott welcome back Jon Reilly of the Life's But A Song podcast for a viewing of a special recorded version of the musical. Join them on a confusing and bewildering journey filled with French whores, anthropomorphic space cats, creepy ghost girls, and hope for redemption and rebirth.

    And fortunes for a quarter. (I looooooooooove quarters!)


    ...with Lilz & Scott!

  • 056 - Les Miserables ("All Aboard The Snuggle Bus") (w/ Maggie Noel)
    2025/03/14
    Les Miserables is a film adaptation of the period musical of the same name. Released in 2012, it followed the exploits of Jean Valjean, an escaped convict going to great lengths to find personal redemption at the height of the French Revolution. The film version, directed by Tom Hooper, sought to emulate the epic scope of the stage musical, and featured grandiloquent and verbose set pieces and crowded chorus numbers, with an ensemble cast led by Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Anne Hathaway, Eddie Redmayne, and numerous others. The film was a major box office hit, won many Academy Awards (Including a noteworthy Supporting Actress win for Hathaway), and set a new standard for movie musicals featuring live performances by the actors as opposed to backing tracks...in spite of largely receiving middling reviews upon its release.

    On a new episode of Hell Is A Musical, Lilz and Scott welcome back Maggie Noel (Friend of the pod and late of the Rock Candy podcast) to help them through a viewing of Les Miserables. Join them as they slog their way through an obscene amount of extreme close-ups, marvel at just how British 19th century France is in the action, and make a lot of the same jokes everyone's already made about Russell Crowe's singing voice.

    (It's not good.)

  • 055 - Better Man ("Milk & Cigarettes / Cigarettes & Milk")
    2025/02/16
    Better Man is a 2024 musical biopic depicting the life of English singer-songwriter and former Take That member Robbie Williams. It was written, directed, and produced by Michael Gracey (On the heels of his success with noted piece of treacly crap The Greatest Showman), and features the central conceit of replacing the film version of Robbie with that of an anthromorphic CGI chimpanzee. Robbie Williams himself stars as the narrator and singing voice of the film version of Williams, portrayed via motion capture and acted by stage actor Jonno Davies. Steve Pemberton, Kate Mulvany, Alison Steadman, and Damon Herriman also star, and the soundtrack features a collection of Robbie Williams hits set to theatrical set pieces.


    On a new (Wait, really?!) episode of Hell Is A Musical, Lilz and Scott take in a viewing of Better Man, and literally record the episode immediately after the screening from a car in the parking lot of a Showcase Cinemas. Join them as they cast a hypothetical Pearl Jam biopic, enjoy a delicious meal of spaghetti flingers and NASCAR fries, are thoroughly bewildered by the sight of a giant ape-man doing cocaine and other ilicit deeds.
