Description
Corbin and Ellis are joined by MATEA, Portland's Elvira (Letterboxd here, subscribe today!), for a conversaion about the early indie horror touchstone "Let Scare Jessica to Death." Topics include: the shifting uses of mental health care as a literary device, the bitter end of the sixties playing out on screen, the thin line between madness and a vampire invading your mind, and the movie's wild sound design.
Corbin reccomends a movie. Matt reccomends another movie. Matea reccomends yet another movie.
Next week's episode, which i neglected to mention, will be the first in a series of NOIRVEMBER selections: Kiss Me Deadly! Watch it here.
Listen to Corbin and, lesser degree, Matt, get all swoony over STRAY DOG, a police procedural by THE MASTER Akira Kurosawa. Topics include: soup, noir-and-not-noir elements at work, Kurosawa's enduring influence, and the heroic impulse vs. the rational impulse.

Matt and Corbin talk about "Kiss Me Deadly," a film noir about a Nietzschean superman lost in an existential world... right up until the point when it turns out he's actually in a science fiction disasterpiece.
Our analysis of the election: wrong. Sorry!
Corbin reccomends "BALATRO," a video...
