Episode 639: Red Sonja and the Talisman Of Lunacy
After a week off, Erik Childress and Peter Sobczynski return to catch you all up on the world of physical media. This week there are war films and after-war films, both with Gene Hackman. There are movies with dogs and giant insects, Looney Tunes, Loony Porno and the lunacy of Antonio Margheriti. They discuss another underrated Coen Bros. film as well as a film that is not far removed from another of their loony classics. Criterion adds the latest Scorsese to their collection and Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie fans should check out Matt Johnson’s previous film. Finally, one of the goofiest of 1980s sword-and-sorcery films gets the glorious Arrow treatment and God bless them.
