1999: The Podcast

AUDITION and WE SOLD OUR SOULS FOR ROCK 'N ROLL - "Ozzdition"


Listen Later

Audition does not rank anywhere in the 1999 box office. This is largely because it had no theatrical release in 1999.

Rather, Audition played a single screening at the Toronto International Film Festival that year, and would only go on to make a few hundred thousand dollars worldwide during its run.

But it developed an enormous cult following since, and has become one of the most revered horror films of its time. And it's easy to see why - Audition is gruesome, inventive, and stunningly unique.

And, also, due to circumstances beyond her control, Jenn couldn't watch it. So John did, shares his thoughts, and then they both discuss Penelope Spheeris's unreleased OZZFEST 99 documentary We Sold Our Souls For Rock 'N Roll, which might finally be released at some point in the near future, but, if not, is available in a fairly grainy Vimeo upload.

It's great. So is Audition. Watch them both, if you can stomach the latter!

If not, just listen to us talk about them!
