Mysterium Pictorum

When we were still in Turkey, we sat down with Doruk, a simple man from the streets, and discussed the Coen Brother's "No Country for Old Men". We were a bunch of ignorants towards the Western genre then and still are today, but we loved this. Listen to us love it. Also, we're eating 1,5 kilos of Turkish pickles over the course of this episode, because Turkish pickles are the best pickles in the world, by far!

Our lost live Episode from the Obsessive Christmas Film Festival in December 2021! We did find it! The sound quality is not perfect, but it's a fun episode! We're talking about F. W. Murnau's expressionist horror masterpiece FAUST and rip it to shreds. We did not appreciate all the misogyny and rape, but we did appreciate the visuals. We also talk about some history (who among the actors were Nazis? Who wasn't?) fail at reading Lotte Eisner (too many big words) and discuss roofies a lot. An episode for the ages, clearly!

We're talking Kieslowski again! We love him! This time, we watched BEZ KONCA / NO END. This brings us to discussions about losing our phones in East Berlin, unions and fatherly badassery, the Leftovers, A Ghost Story and many more lovely topics! Come join us in the Kieslowski love-fest!

We finally did it! We watched Bela Tarr's behemoth of slow cinema - And we LOVED it!

As usual, we're the only arthouse film podcast around that will talk about Gilmore Girls, German trash TV, H. P. Lovecraft and orgies while discussing this certified classic. Your funniest bumbling group of ignorants is at it again! Listen right now - It's a great one!

This time, we discussed Panos Cosmatos' "Beyond the Black Rainbow", as well as German casting shows (in particular "The Next Uri Geller") and xHamsters porn casting show "X Factor".

Seriously, this is a good one!

We've watched some rape-y arthouse anime. Let's talk about it! 

We're joined by filmmaker Christian Grundey (host of the German film podcast "Filme zum Dessert") to discuss Lucio Fulci's "ZOMBIE 2", also known as "ZOMBIE FLESH EATERS". 

We also discuss zombie films in general, Italian horror films, film censorship in Germany, Voodoo, German amateur splatter - and then a cat farts. 

You shouldn't miss this one! Write us an iTunes review! We love you! 

Christmas Special! New Year’s Special! 2021 wrap-up! Recommendation lists! In-person-episode! This “Mysterium Pictorum” episode is so special, it more than makes up for the “meh” movie we watched!

“A Blast of Silence” is an independent film noir crime drama from 1960’s New York, starts out really nice and then quickly becomes tedious.

This time, we watched and discussed Sergej Parajanov's "Ashik Kerib" - Based on a Turkish fairytale. Along the way, we discussed the very eistence of Turkish fairytales, RomComs, Turkish RomComs and horny architecture, specifically that of religious temples of all kinds. Spoiler: Mosques are the horniest, by far. 

We're BACK! After a hiatus that went on for way to long (making films has a way of keeping you from talking about films), it's finally time to resume the weekly schedule! (Hopefully ...)

It's Bela Tarr time again! We love Bela! We're talking about his film DAMNATION, and we also throw around ideas for which properties should be remade in the Bela Tarr style - Mean Girls? Leon the Professional? It's a fun thought!
