This episode features a friendly discussion on one of the most prolific and singular directors to ever come out of Japan: THEE SHINYA TSUKAMOTO! You may know and love him for his cyber-punk masterpiece, TETSUO: THE IRON MAN, but I've got my pal Jeremiah Rosario, a Florida-based filmmaker, to chat about 3 lesser known films by Tsukamoto: Gemini (1999), Haze (2005), and Nightmare Detective (2006). Listen to us obsessives pick apart the themes, the pros, the cons, and the Tsukamoto-isms. Check it out!

This episode features a chat with Kelly Gredner, a fellow podcaster and writer who's been a strong presence in the horror community with The Spinsters of Horror and Our Bloody Obsession (RIP). She's now embarking on her own series, Kelly's Taboo Terrors, where she'll be exploring controversial and transgressive films all with taboo themes. Naturally, I had to have Kelly on to pick her brain about this new series and why the heck she, like so many of us, are drawn to the extreme side of horror.
This sequel drenched episode contains a doozy of a chat with Seth Troyer, a filmmaker, musician, and fellow podcaster based out of Ohio. You may know him from co-hosting Unwatchables, but he’s recently dropped a hilarious experimental short film called “Vertigo 2” that is so meta and bonkers I couldn’t wait to chat with him about it once my head stopped spinning. We dive into all of the problems and miracles born out of creating sequels, the big/weird franchises, and still have enough braincells left for the mysterious career of Alan Smithee. Dive in for a fun brain-scrambling discussion!

Guy is back and this time he's joined by his podcasting co-host, Dave Jackson! Guy and Dave are two wild underground horror filmmakers that now both reside in Japan where they conduct their highly addictive podcast, Show Me Something Wrong. In this series, they explore films that they deem "wrong" - ya know, films that are provocative, baffling, controversial, or just completely WTF. Thanks to their meticulous research and friendly rapport, their exploration of each esoteric film is all the more entertaining. I just had to have them on to chat about how these films feed back into their own work and what exactly is up with Japanese p*rn??? This led to some very shocking stories about their adventures attending Pink cinemas. Heads up, this one gets pretty gnarly!
This episode features Amy Hensarling and Jetta Weinstein, two podcasting/film-writing buds who both made appearances on the first season. Once I heard the inaugural episode of Amy's new series, She Said/She Said, where Jetta came on to dissect a couple films, I just knew I needed both of them on to discuss a couple horror flicks. Jetta picked William Friedkin's "Bug" (2006") and Antonia Bird's "Ravenous" (1999) and off we went pulling apart the themes and subtext of these two powerful/singular films. Fun was had! Check it out!

This episode features an incredibly inspiring chat with Montreal-based filmmaker Terry Chiu, whose latest feature film Open Doom Crescendo is one of the wildest, weirdest, and most epic movies I've ever seen! ODC is really an "Experience" so singular and bursting with creativity that you'd expect Terry to be swimming in avant-garde art. Instead, Chiu is a devoted fan of the Insidious films and loves superhero movies. It's a refreshing change of pace for me and led to us having loads of interesting conversations about making DIY art and why music might just be the most influential thing to exist. Check out the episode and watch Open Doom Crescendo asap!
