Description
This week we welcome Back-Row.com and Cinema60's Jenna Ipcar as a guest to discuss Joel Schumacher's snuff film thriller 8MM, starring the inimitable Nicolas Cage! We get deep into why people watch violent images and how this thriller is craftier than it gets credit for. We also overcome technical difficulties as the first 12 minutes of audio are subpar. But stick with it and it will snap to clarity! Check out Jenna's writing at Back Row Cinema Blog (http://www.back-row.com/) and her podcasts including Notes from the Back Row and Cinema60 (https://www.cinema-60.com/). The podcast on Last House on Dead End Street mentioned can be found here: https://soundcloud.com/screamingatlight/ep-4-last-house-on-dead-end-street

In our second week of The Matrix's box office domination, we turned to a veritable flop with David Cronenberg's too-heady-for-its-own-good EXISTENZ. In addition to this weird ass Jude Law/Jennifer Jason Leigh vehicle we also talk about Black Mirror: Bandersnatch, Roko's Basilisk, and El*n M*sk!
