Cult movie fanatics Rob Spencer and Joe Odber dive deep into a double feature every episode, discussing the wonderful world of cult, psychotronic and exploitation cinema along with the films themselves. Play along, watch the films at home and join us for a full post mortem into whatever madness we have just witnessed on screen.

The days are cooling down, the leaves are changing colour, and the nights are drawing in. It must be Creepy Spooky Month! Bryan Davidson joins us for the first of a series of episodes all devoted to horror this October - and we start with ZOMBIES. Or at least, zombie adjacency. First up, we discuss Stewart Gordon's absolute cult classic, Re-Animator (1985), and follow that up with a jaunt into some woozy, Italian weirdness: Zeder (1982), directed by Pupi Avati.
If you haven't seen Re-Animator yet, you need to get your head checked thoroughly (possibly after removing it), so we haven't called out spoilers (although they're there!) , but we have called out Spoiler Territory for Zeder. Skip ahead to 2:30:49 to avoid spoilers for that one.

Episode 145: L'Amour Braque + La Cérémonie
The fabulous Samm Deighan is back with us this week to delve into a couple of great, underseen French films - and also to tell us all about her new book on the work of that great master of cinema insanity, Andrzej Żuławski. Exciting! We kick off our double feature with Żuławski's frantic ode to mad French mobsters, L'Amour Braque (1985) and we follow that up with La Cérémonie (1995), directed by Claude Chabrol - a domestic thriller about class, shame and sociopathy that comes on like a television procedural but hits you like a gut punch when you least expect it. Oof!!!
L'Amour Braque is so dense and confusing that we'd probably recommend listening to this before you watch it - and spoilers are made up for by being properly prepped for its unique vibe - but Spoiler Territory was ESSENTIAL for La Cérémonie. Skip ahead to 1:58:34 to avoid spoilers for that one.

Episode 144: That Obscure Object of Desire + Happy Birthday To Me
It's high culture vs low culture this week! Rob St Mary drops in to discuss the great Surrealist Luis Bunuel's final film, That Obscure Object of Desire (1977) before descending into the quasi-giallo, early 80's Canuxploitation slasher jam, Happy Birthday To Me (1981), directed by J. Lee Thompson. We may have planned a female duality theme, or we may have just thrown these two contrasting flicks together just for fun. We'll let you be the judge. Either way, they may be a mouthful but they sure are delicious!
That Obscure Object of Desire is probably obscure enough in its plot to be largely unspoilable at this point, but we do call out Spoiler Territory for Happy Birthday To Me. Skip ahead to 2:31:44 to avoid spoilers for that one.
