Pod 366: A Weird Movies Podcast

In this pre-Xmas episode, Greg and Giles discuss December's too-late-for -Christmas physical media releases--"Reanimator," "Bugonia," and a big-time "Perfect Blue" set--plus the just in time for Christmas appearance of "Kill the Jockey" on Amazon Prime. Then, we spend most of the episode examining Taste of Cinema's recent list of "100 Best Surrealist Movies" (it's a solid list, but of course, we came to quibble).

Giles and Greg cover 2026's late weird movie releases. This week, two notable art-house features arrive in limited release in theaters: Bi Gan's dream-based "Resurrection" and the queer Chilean AIDS allegory "The Mysterious Gaze of the Flamingo." In physical media releases, we highlight the newly uncovered Korean neosurrealist feature "Splendid Outing," the long-awaited Blu-ray/4K release of surreal anime "Angel's Egg," "Rabbit Trap" reaches Blu-ray, and Ben Wheatley's "Kill List" turns up on 4K UHD.

Ryland Brickson Cole Tews joins Giles and Greg this week to promote his upcoming project "Oriental Snatch." But first, G&G go through the week's news and new releases: a special "Under the Skin" symphonic screening in Los Angeles in February; Man Ray's "Return to Reason" four-film collection released to the Criterion Collection; Estonian DIY horror musical "Chainsaws Were Singing" hits Blu-ray (sort of) and streaming; "Scott Pilgrim Takes Off" Blu-ray pushed back to March; and Canon's "The Ninja Trilogy" shows up on Blu-ray and 4K UHD. Then Ryland B.C. Tews comes in to discuss some personal news, "Oriental Snatch," D.B. Cooper, Brazil, and his enduring friendship with Giles.

Thanksgiving's a-coming, and Giles and Greg are thankful for a weird week of movies ahead. First off, on the theatrical front, there's the lavish surrealist Eurospy event "Reflections in a Dead Diamond," controversial Jesus horror "The Carpenter's Son," a one-week NYC debut engagement for Bill Plympton's animated musical Western "Slide," special screenings of the rediscovered surrealist anime "Angel's Egg," and a new December "Hundreds of Beavers" tour. Physical media sees releases of Candian/Iranian mashup "Universal Language," Luis Bunuel's "El" from the Criterion Collection, and the standard edition Blu-ray/4K UHD version of "Dark City." But that's not all! Since we'll be off next week for Thanksgiving, we look ahead to next week's physical media releases: "Tromeo and Juliet," "The Happiness of the Katakuris," "The Demon's Rook," "Berberian Sound Studio," and the complete anime series "Galaxy Express 999." May the only turkeys you encounter next week be on your dinner table!

The word Greg was looking for to describe "Let the Corpses Tan" was "poliziotteschi."

*The "Galaxy Express 999" feature film was never reviewed at 366 Weird Movies.
