It’s time to enter a new world of metal!

In the latest episode, Josh and Jesse tackle a pair of nightmarish punk-metal body horror films in Shinya Tsukamoto’s Tetsuo: The Iron Man and Tetsuo II: Body Hammer! They discuss the themes and ideas shared by both films and dive deep into their thoughts on the movies’ craft and inventiveness. At the top of the hour, Josh and Jesse talk about what they’ve been watching before debuting an updated segment on physical media announcements, called “Coming Soon to Own”.
