Have You SEEN This?

Jen and Tim welcome a mysterious podcast newbie to praise this magnificent work of queer cinema to the skies. We’re not kidding, you need to watch this movie, and how fortuitous that it’s on YouTube!

Jen and guest Mike Rosen finally get back around to silent classic Häxan, a topic for which Mike is perfectly suited due to his expertise in witch-hunting manuals, proto-MGTOW inquisitors, and torture devices of the early modern period (not joking).

Jen and Tim are joined by laser-sharp media critic Gretchen Felker-Martin (@scumbelievable on Twitter) to talk over a movie that close to 50 years later is still too hot for TV: Ken Russell’s The Devils!

Just in time for Halloween, Tim and Jen attempt to make head or tail of a homebrew Canadian nightmare! Possibly one of the worst and most inexplicable films ever made, Things went direct-to-video in 1989…and straight to our hearts.

Mike Rosen returns to discuss Marlo Thomas’s most lasting work! Listen to find out if gender stereotypes actually ended in 1973 and we all missed it.

Sean Morris joins Jen and Tim to discuss a favorite forgotten comedy, Livin’ Large, which prefigured “Marxist propaganda” film Sorry To Bother You! We make the connections and also ramble about symptoms of dystopia like SoundCloud rappers.
