We delve into dark corners of the cave this time as we look at two films from the 70s that focus on conspiracy theories. We start off with a TV movie from 1970 called "The Brotherhood of the Bell" which stars Glenn Ford and many other big names. It borrows from the legends of the Skull and Bones group at Yale that has given us multiple US presidents. The movie had enormous potential but we disagree about how successful it is with capitalizing on it. We follow that up with 1973's "Executive Action" which we all agree was a far superior film. It depicts a possible scenario to explain the assassination of John F. Kennedy and it is chilling to watch the masterminds at work behind the scenes, plotting to murder a sitting president. Throughout the episode we ramble...at length...at extreme length, so...brace yourself.
