"Boy, I sure wish there was a sequel to the 1991 HBO Original Movie CAST A DEADLY SPELL, only more of a reboot than a sequel, and with Dennis Hopper taking over the role of detective H. Phillip Lovecraft from Fred Ward, and I hope it's mostly a fumbled metaphor for McCarthyism," you're probably saying to yourself all the time. Well, you will not believe your luck: there is one of those, and for some goddamn reason Paul Schrader directed it! Today we're talking 1994's WITCH HUNT, a film noir pastiche about an alternate postwar Los Angeles where magic is real and the HUAC hearings are about literal witchcraft. Returning to the show from our remarkably similar CASPER episode is Twitter scoundrel Jack Sinclair! Join us for a conversation about, frankly, the 1994 film WITCH HUNT. Wacky ep!
