As a sequel to our Taxi Driver episode, we analyze Paul Schrader's 2017 film First Reformed, an explicit work of religious engineering. We examine how the movie's sophisticated propaganda depicts the dying remnants of American Protestantism being absorbed into the globalist religion of the future, complete with worship of the earth mother goddess. We also talk about apocalypse programming, provide further background on Schrader, and discuss some recent disturbing comments that he's...

A return to our series on Christopher Nolan, discussing how Oppenheimer makes explicit the globalist politics implied by the sci-fi transhumanism of some of his previous films. We analyze how the movie  treats standard Nolan themes, such as the master manipulator and the death of the soul (often symbolized by the death of women). Oppenheimer's depiction of the Promethean salesman of science gives us further confirmation of Nolan's significance as a cultural...

In a discussion that much of our longrunning Joker analysis has built to, we do a deep dive into Martin Scorsese's Taxi Driver (1976). We explain the foundational place of Scorsese's film in the feedback loop between media and spectacular crime that we call the Joker Cycle. Looking at other relevant films and filmmakers, we speculate on the possible role of Brian de Palma in the Taxi Driver psy-op, discuss Peter Bogdanovich's Targets (1968) as an early entry into the feedback loop, and...

Thomas joins Luemas on Chant It Down Radio, discussing the first three films in the Jason Bourne franchise. Starring the deeply sus Matt Damon, limited hangouts and revelation of the method abound in these movies. Discussing how Hollywood's political messaging has shifted over the last couple decades, Thomas and Luemas explain how the exceptionally spooked-up filmmakers behind this franchise blend sincere critique of CIA wrongdoing with disturbing fetishization of mind...

We and Sean McCann joined William Ramsey for a discussion about the recent Obama-produced apocalyptic thriller Leave the World Behind. Directed by Sam Esmail, the movie is filled to the brim with globalist propaganda concerning social collapse, 'disinformation,' and the need to trust the technocratic elite at all costs. It also includes the usual subtext concerning the virtues of dissociative pop-culture mind control....

Thomas and Steven discuss the spiritual and social themes of The Tree of Life, Terrence Malick's 2011 coming-of-age of drama with a cosmic background. They unpack the narrative's biblical references to Genesis and Job, and Steven describes the film's resonances with Augustine, Freud, and Dostoevsky. Analyzing the film's dichotomy between a motherly "way of grace" and a fatherly "way of nature," they disagree about whether The Tree of Life's critiques of 1950s American family life are biblical...

Continuing the discussion that began with our analysis of Blade Runner, we look at the legacy sequel released in 2017 and directed by Denis Villeneuve. Blade Runner 2049 intensifies the psy-op of the original film, making the Monarch tropes and mind control themes far more obvious. The ever-sus Leto appears as a Elon Musk style tech-oligarch with Promethean aspirations. Considering the various perspectives advanced within the film on human/tech hybridity, we find Blade Runner 2049 to be...

Brett and Steven DeLay appeared recently on Sean McCann’s Wake the Dead podcast to discuss the shockingly detailed accusations of ritual murder, blackmail, and human trafficking made by Richie Albertini, an associate of the Gambino crime family who grew up in the 80s alongside a bevy of future Hollywood A-listers. Albertini was later involved in running phone sex blackmail operations for Mossad, and he was the bar-back at Johnny Depp’s Viper room in the 90s. Citing specific films, Brett and...

We are joined by Sean McCann for a discussion of the films of Panos Cosmatos, analyzing Beyond the Black Rainbow's MKUltra New Age horror and Mandy's dark psychedelic Nic Cage rampage. Getting into his biting commentary on 1960s boomer spirituality and 1980s Reagan conservatism, we discern which countercultural psyops Cosmatos is rejecting and which ones he wholeheartedly embraces. Dark goddess worship, Programmed to Kill style mind control, and dissociative power trips for the powerless make...

We talk about Blade Runner, getting into its attack upon the boundaries of the human and its prevalent Illuminati symbolism. Differentiating Philip K. Dick's ill-fated Gnostic impulses from Ridley Scott's overt promotion of the superclass worldview, we contrast the source material and the film, also noting key distinctions between the several cuts of the movie. Blade Runner turns out to be a standard Hollywood sci-fi vehicle for Luciferian transhumanism....

Our Terrence Malick series continues with The New World, Malick's depiction of the Pocahontas story. Thomas and Steven analyze the film's treatment of religion, romance, and civilization, while continuing to consider the extent to which Malick's mystical themes are Christian. They discuss philosophical questions raised by the film regarding religious pluralism and phenomenology....

An extended preview of the most in-depth content yet from Brett's Monarch series. In clips from three full length Patreon-only episodes, Brett details his research on the nightmarish 1985 children's film Return to Oz. This preview of the Monarch subseries provides information on the history of Wizard of Oz programming, the occultic career of of child star Fairuza Balk, and how the entire plot of the film is a coded depiction of mind control techniques designed to generate alter...

Geoff Shullenberger joins us for an analysis of the recent David Gordon Green Halloween trilogy. He discuses a Girardian reading of Halloween Ends as well the "lab leak theory of Michael Myers." Is the 2018 film correctly read as based and right-wing, or is it more of the same MK-culture fetishization of trauma? Why is Halloween Kills so terrible? And does Halloween Ends present a cringe lib approach to evil or a positive subversion of typical Hollywood incel revenge...

We continue through the Halloween franchise, this time joined by Sean McCann to discuss the strange cult classic Halloween III: Season of the Witch. This unique entry in the series showcases some intense revelation of the method in its combined depiction of technology, witchcraft, and corporate media. We discuss the significance of Samhain and demonic pagan religion in both its ancient and modern...

We are joined by Paul and Phillip Collins to discuss John Carpenter's Halloween, in the first of three episodes on the Halloween franchise. They explain the apotheosis of Michael Myers, how this archetypal slasher fits into the occult transhumanist project to transcend good and evil and remake humanity. We discuss depictions of evil within Carpenter's work and how the weaponized insanity of Myers relates to demonic clowns and what we have called "the Joker cycle." Invoking the Beyond: The...

We discuss The Thin Red Line with Steven DeLay, after first going much deeper into Terrence Malick's background. Considering many remarkable and little known facts about Malick's biography, we analyze his relationship to the academia/media/intelligence culture creating complex. We then talk about Malick's late 90s epic war film The Thin Red Line, discussing whether the underlying religious message is essentially Christian or pantheistic and unpacking the significance of the film's notable...

We went on the podcast Debra Gets Red Pilled for a fun conversation about the influential horror film Jacob's Ladder. It's a movie that hits most major Psyop Cinema themes, including religious engineering, trauma-based experimentation, the psychedelia psyop, Gnosticism, and fetishization of dissociation. We talk about the highly suspicious drug experience that led to the writing of this film and discuss the essential place of the Vietnam War within MK-culture....

A look at the multi-layered psyop around Sound of Freedom, the popular recent Jim Caviezel film dealing with child sex trafficking. In contrast with the charged discourse around the film's alleged QAnon themes, we analyze the subtle quality of the Monarch 'dogwhistles' actually present in the film. We discuss those involved in the production and promotion of this movie, clarifying which of these figures are highly suspicious and which seem to be benign. At the center of our investigation is...

Our appearance on William Ramsey's show discussing Arlington Road, a 1999 thriller about domestic terrorism. We show how the film projects the tactics of intelligence services onto the militia movement, resulting in intense misdirection regarding events like Oklahoma City and Ruby Ridge. We also examine the predictably sus credits of the filmmakers, the hints of mind control themes, and the film's overall attempt to undermine social trust and foster the wrong kind of paranoia....

Thomas and Mariana are joined by Jamie Hanshaw for a thorough examination of Disney's sinister history. Jamie takes us through Disney's deep state and occult connections, the life of Walt Disney, and how the parks themselves are a microcosm of the spell cast by the dark magic of imagineering. We then talk about Fantasia's probable function as a direct tool of Monarch programming, similar features in Fantasia 2000, and how Monsters Inc acts as a disturbing revelation of the method....

Brett is joined by Steven DeLay to discuss Days of Heaven (1978), from Terrence Malick. An ethereal drama set in the Texas Panhandle of the early 20th century, Malick's second film is a romance dealing with tragedy, jealousy, and deception, as well as a philosophically rich commentary on the loss of paradise. Brett and Steven analyze the film's treatment of religion, technology, and utopian dreams....

Thomas' appearance from a few weeks ago on William Ramsey Investigates, talking about the suspicious aspects of Taylor Swift. Thomas and William analyze the strange phenomenon of 'Taylor Swift amnesia,' the psychological and spiritual dangers of celebrity-culture, and the overt occult and Monarch symbolism of several Swift videos and live performances. Taylor Swift's recent concerts may represent a phase shift, where mass-scale MKUltra is becoming more intense than ever....

An appearance we did a few months ago on William Ramsey Investigates, discussing Seven Days in May, an early 1960s political thriller about a military coup against the United States president. We analyze the relationship of this film to the Kennedy assassination and consider the complex political dynamics around the killing of JFK and the Kennedy legacy. We also talk about RFK's assassination, RFK Jr.'s candidacy, and the many paths to...
