For our twenty-sixth episode, friend of the show and host of the ScreenVomit podcast Kayla stops by for a discussion of William Friedkin’s controversial 1980 thriller “Cruising”. We discuss queer representation in the ‘80s, 40 missing minutes of supposed hardcore footage, Friedkin’s commentary prowess, comparisons to “Basic Instinct”, something called Jockstrap Night, and much much more.
Ryan’s Recommendations: “The French Connection” (1971), “Sorcerer” (1977), “To Live and Die in L.A.” (1985), and “The Exorcist III” (1990)
