Show Me Something Wrong

Dave shows Guy A HAUNTED TURKISH BATHHOUSE from 1975, a jaw-dropping mash-up of pinky violence and ghost cat horror. Toei Company puts together a great team for this. They stole Naomi Tani from Nikkatsu and threw the brilliant Kazuhiko Yamaguchi in the director's chair to give us a colourful, blood-soaked revenge trip. Featuring a vengeful cat monster that looks like the lead singer of a glam rock band!

Guy shows Dave RED SPELL SPELLS RED from 1983. Imagine if CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST and EVIL DEAD had a baby, which then got stung by hundreds of scorpions and went into anaphylactic shock. The result would be RED SPELL SPELLS RED—a sickening journey into the chaotic world of Hong Kong black magic cinema!

Dave shows Guy THE BUCKS PARTY from 1978. THE BUCKS PARTY is a criminally underseen Australian film that follows the increasingly disturbing antics of a beer-soaked bachelor party. It is a tense Wake-In-Fright-like trip to macho hell. We are lucky enough to have a special guest this episode, as Steve Jodrell, director of THE BUCKS PARTY (and many more great films and TV shows), comes on board to discuss his work!

Guy makes Dave watch ID (or IDO) from 2005, directed by the legendary Kei Fujiwara of ORGAN and TETSUO fame. The film is complex with a convoluted narrative, but Guy and Dave (mainly Guy) try their best to unravel it. Guy also speaks about his experience meeting Fujiwara!

Dave makes Guy watch DON'T STOP MY CRAZY LOVE FOR YOU from 1993, starring HK legends Yvonne Yung Hung and Simon Yam. This is our first Hong Kong film and we get very excited talking about our experiences with Category III cinema.

In this episode, Guy makes Dave watch NIGHTDREAMS from 1981. This is the first time we dive into the world of porn, and it is one hell of a strange journey. Featuring creepy masks, post-coitus fish, cowgirls, Satan, and a man in a toast costume playing a saxophone.

In this episode, Dave deeply upsets Guy by making him watch DUCK! THE CARBINE HIGH MASSACRE from 1999. You can probably tell by the title and release date that the subject matter is very problematic and distressing. The execution of the film might surprise you though.

In this episode, Guy makes Dave watch THE WORM EATERS, which is tantamount to torture. The Worm Eaters is from 1977. It stars Herb Robins and several bucketloads of worms. Robins also directed and wrote it, which raises a troubling question about his feelings towards worms. This film is a proper nightmare.

In this episode, Dave makes Guy watch AMERICAN HUNTER from Indonesian action movie master, Arizal! American Hunter stars (the son of) Hollywood royalty and features some of the most ankle-snapping, scream-inducing stunts put to film! If you like people doing running flips off walls, this film is a must-see.

In this episode, Guy makes Dave watch RED ACCOUNT: MY BLOODY ANGEL. It starts as a fairly standard AV film then evolves/devolves into something much more violent and bizarre. Truly one of the most jaw-droppingly weird and gross films to come out of late 80s Japan!
