The Devil's Work Podcast episodes

  • 35 - Angst
    We’re back with another doozy! It’s PsydeShow’s pick this week and we’re covering a stomach turner by the name of Angst! Directed by Gerald Kargl in 1983, with some absolutely insane cinematography by Zbigniew Rybczynski, this film is damn near the pinnacle of an anti-slasher movie. While it isn’t an easy watch, we believe it to be an important one. We also cover the connections to the story it’s based on, so get ready for another true crime episode!
    TW: discussion/implication of sexual assault, violence towards the elderly, the developmentally disabled, and animals (the dog makes it out), extreme gore, sausages.

  • 34 - Organ
    It’s Skeptik’s turn at the wheel and today we’re covering the 1996 Japanese stomach-turner, Organ! Directed by Kei Fujiwara, this twisted tale unfolds in such a chaotic and disgusting manner, that it’s a bit difficult to even grasp what’s going on half the time! Somehow, we managed to make it through this, but don’t say we didn’t warn you. This is our first toe-dip into the splatter-gore genre and it’s moist!
    TW: extreme gore/violence, incest, SA, bodily fluids of all kinds, plant people

  • 33 - Super Dark Times
    It’s Evelyn’s pick and that means 'Super Dark Times' are ahead for us as we tackle this trek through a tangled terrain of puberty & pain.
    Follow along as we unravel this dark and impending Coming-Of-Age nightmare from the mind of Kevin Phillips.
    TW: violence, immature humor (a lot of d!ck jokes), toxic masculinity, a big ass sword.

  • 32 - Idle Hands (with The John Candy)
    It’s time to get handsy this week on the Devil’s Work! PsydeShow’s pick is the 1999 horror comedy cult classic Idle Hands, directed by Rodman Flender! And we’re joined by a very special guest, Brannon of The John Candy! With their particularly fun brand of metal (dubbed “nostalgia-core”), they emit the same energy as this film: chaotic, familiar, and hilarious.
    Anton is your stereotypical, trashy high school burnout: he smokes weed every day (we see nothing wrong there), he hangs out with his friends, his hand gets possessed by a demon and murders people, he has a crush on the girl next door. You know, high school stuff. There’s an argument to be made here that this is the stoner horror comedy to end all stoner horror comedies, but that might be the nostalgia bias talking. Star studded cast, excellent physical acting/practical effects, and no moral compass. Need we say more?!
    Check out The John Candy’s newest single “John Cena Is Our Drummer” on YouTube and across all major streaming platforms!

  • 31 - Noriko's Dinner Table
    It’s Skeptik’s turn at the wheel and we’re going back to wonderfully delirious and deranged world of Suicide Club with its ambitious sequel, Sion Sono’s Suicide Club 2: Noriko’s Dinner Table! The film takes place just before (also during, and immediately following) the events of its predecessor, allowing for a deeper look into the universe. We follow four characters as they attempt to navigate a massive and deadly mystery: Noriko, her sister Yuka, her father Tetsuzo, and a woman named Kumiko. This has to be one of the most complex films we’ve discussed on the show up to this point, hence the runtime. Get ready for a cerebral one!
    TW: Suicide, ideation, violence/gore, the internet

  • 30 - Event Horizon (Part 1)
    It’s our 1 year anniversary as a podcast! And to celebrate, Evelyn is bringing you a two-parter of some existential dread with Paul WS Anderson’s 1997 sci-fi cult classic, Event Horizon! The film follows the crew of the Lewis & Clark starship as they’re summoned to investigate a presumed-to-be-lost ship called the Event Horizon. They soon find themselves trapped in a psychological nightmare where the echoes of the past come back to haunt them. Remember kids, “hell is only a word. The reality is much worse!”
    TW: violence/gore, suicide/self harm, space

  • 29 - Trouble Every Day
    We want to start off by saying we’re sorry for this one! It’s PsydeShow’s turn at the wheel and he’s driving us all insane with Claire Denis’ 2002 addition to the New French Extremity genre, Trouble Every Day. This is a pretty harrowing watch, so we’ll understand if you want to skip viewing it yourself, even though we highly recommend it before listening. The film follows two American newlyweds, Shane and June Brown, honeymooning in Paris. Only, Shane has ulterior motives and is in search of a cure for a ravenous disease he’s contracted that gives him quite the literal lust for blood. Fair warning, it gets bleak.
    TW: sexual assault/violence, suicidal ideation, gore, heavy petting, and Beatrice Dalle

  • 28 - Cube
    It’s time to get radical AND mathematical with this week’s episode of TDW! Revisiting an old classic with an admitted problematic streak, Skeptik takes the wheel with the 1997 Vincenzo Natali film: Cube! When seven - oh wait, make that six - strangers wake up in mysterious, cube shaped rooms with exits in each direction and absolutely no idea how they got there, what else could ensue besides a series of educated guesses, petard hoistings, and finally ill-advised betrayals. TW: gore, dismemberment, abuse of power, and wicked awesome set design.

  • 27 - Baskin
    We’re back with another stomach-turner as Evelyn leads the conversation this week! It’s firmly an ACAB episode folks so strap in, we’re covering Can Evrenol’s 2016 ride through (literal) hell, Baskin! We follow a group of police officers who are called for backup to a mysterious house in the middle of the night, where nightmares beyond their comprehension await them. Listen along and get grossed out with us!
    TW: Intense violence/gore, SA, eye gouging, cops
