We are making our way through the Alien and Predator franchises and are so thoroughly in the late 90s. Yellow tints, lots of leather, and it's gay!

We dissect ideas of power, queerness, the psyche, and basketball.

It's long hallway time! Along with the film's troubled production, we discuss what Fincher's nihilistic entry to the series has to say about queerness, the AIDS epidemic, pregnancy and the nuclear family, Christianity and the possibility of redemption, the confluence of the prison with the mental hospital and the factory, as well as Foucault and Deleuze and the transition from a disciplinary to a control society.

We are the Predators, and we're hunting for meaning beyond "wow that's racist" in the critically panned sequel, Predator 2 (1990). We speculate who the Predator is an analog for, how the director's background may have influenced the uh.... portrayal of certain characters, and we also suggest that the writers - Jim and John Thomas - maybe knew about the CIA's involvement in the distribution of crack in L.A.

We're talking Kierkegaard, the nature of the self, the gulf between the genders (that Shinji can't see), and Charlie uncovers a hidden plot by Ikari to make his son into a man.

Charlie and Barto are left to their own devices and, as a consequence, there's no one to stop them from getting drawn into Scarlett Johansson's deep, dark void. While they're swimming in the inky darkness, they sing songs, discuss Das Ding, the violence of becoming a subject, and whether aliens have cars on their home world.

Wow this show is really ramping up. We talk Holy Ghosts, our relationship with religion, prophecy, how the Rabbit that lives in your mind is just as real as the Rabbit who has to go to work and, of course, Oedipus is back.

Dreads, mandibles, heat vision, and invisibility? Baby, you got a stew going! We discuss this '80s sci-fi/action/horror flick's troubled production, its waffling position on imperialism, what happens when we view the Predator as woman, and the real meaning of Shane Black's repetitive genitalia jokes.

We are talking Cronenberg yet again, and this time we're joined by a favorite thinker, author and podcaster of ours - Adam C. Jones! We discuss viral infections both biological and informational, posting as performance art, control societies, technology as an extension of ourselves, and the film's unique vision of the future.

Listen to Adam's podcasts Acid Horizon and Pub Goth Transmission and join the Acid Horizon patreon. If you can't find a small bookstore that is already carrying his book The New Flesh: Life and Death in the Data Economy, steal it.

WARNING: This episode contains Alien³ spoilers!

We continue our Alien and Predator series with this acclaimed action sequel that falls short on carrying on the themes of the original. We discuss the film's takes on corporatism and militarism, gender and motherhood, and how its attempts at feminism reinforce the patriarchal order. We also get lost in a maze trying to figure out James Cameron's political videos and decide to print the legend when discussing how he pitched the movie.
