THE DOOMED & STONED SHOW

~Season 5, Episode 31~

For years, I've been fascinated by the films of Andy Milligan, a Saint Paul-born director who took his shot at Hollywood big-time in the '60s, '70s, and '80s. His output, all a low-budget affair, has a certain charm to it, due in no small part to the auteur's use of non-actors who seem to have just had a script thrust into their chest bare minutes before "Action!"

This weekend, The Doomed & Stoned Show presents another entry in our 'Doomed Cinema' series, zooming in for a closer look at Andy Milligan's 'Torture Dungeon' (1970). Set in vague medieval times, we are introduced to a power-mad Duke who will stop at nothing to see his ambitions to the throne of a plague-stricken kingdom realized -- even if it means a violent end to foe and family alike. Accompanying the storyline, a robust selection of down 'n' dirty doom, sticky sludge, and hot-to-trot New Wave of British Heavy Metal.
