  • The Film Kubrick Filched?
    2025/06/27

    Join Miles Flanagan, Jared Carlson and Sean Sardi as they explore the creative explosion that is the transgressive classic FUNERAL PARADE OF ROSES (1969). Learn how this one film essentially changed the face of Japanese cinema in the late 1960s. See how it became one of the most inspirational films of the decade (and beyond). And discover how star PETER (Shinnosuke Ikehata) channeled their unorthodox upbringing into this startling cinema debut. Loosely based on the classical Greek play “Oedipus Rex” the film still outshines pretty much every film released since. It's a beacon to cinematic originality - so much so that much of its visual flair was liberally ‘borrowed’ by Stanley Kubrick for his 1972 production of “A Clockwork Orange.” You want to find out more? Then listen now...

  • DEATH LINE and NIGHT HAIR CHILD - the sleaziest double bill ever?
    2025/04/24

    Join Miles Flanagan, Jared Carlson and Sean Sardi as they ask the simple question... “Is this the sleaziest double bill ever?" These potentially classic 1972 movies - DEATH LINE and NIGHT HAIR CHILD - are both about families, but one’s concerned with under-age incest and the other cannibalism. Released in U.K cinemas together in 72, they must have had many rushing for the exits. Definitely two crazy exploitation films that could never be made today. So are these the sleaziest films ever? Listen to find out.
