With Robin Bougie. This week on Sneaky Dragon Ian and Dave are joined by talented writer/cartoonist Robin Bougie, long-time publisher of Cinema Sewer – a fun magazine covering exploitation films and vintage porn. So this week much is said about prostitutes and balloons; good and/or bad and/or good-bad movies; the fabulous wedge-shaped building that houses Sneaky Dragon; the now defunct Fox Theatre and porn theatre etiquette – with a little more info on the famous Scott Baio mural in the ladies’ washroom; a call-back to a long ago Happy Days discussion; mucho about porn; the banality of stripping; and we end the show with a fun trawl through Robin’s Top Twenty Best Films of 2016 as listed on his LiveJournal page.
It was great having Robin on the show this week. Please check out Cinema Sewer, his two (count ’em) two collections of Seventies porn posters Cheap Thrills, the Cinema Sewer podcast and his new colouring book. Phew! Busy guy!
Here is the a short clip from the Whit Stillman film Metropolitan with the Dave-pleasing Fourier reference:
Some of the films we discussed are a little obscure so here are the trailers for some of them:
TurboKid
A Most Violent Year
What We Do In The Shadows
Okay…be warned: This clip from Robin’s 18th pick of his 20 Best Films of 2015 is VERY graphic – including naked body parts, bodily fluids and body tattoos:
