Show Notes

WE ARE BACK AND HERE TO EXPLORE THE DEPRAVED BOUNDARIES OF HUMAN FLESH AND IMAGINATION, IT IS A BRAND NEW EPISODE OF CINEPUNX! It finally happened, after numerous requests for her to return, but we are blessed to be joined for the third time by our one and only SAMM DEIGHAN. Chances are you know Samm from her film writing and commentaries for folks like Criterion but I would hope you are as avid listener as I am to her incredible podcast on this very network, EROS + MASSACRE. Whenever Samm joins us she likes to push our boundaries and ask something of us as film viewers and this episode was no different as she lined up two classic Ero Guro films for us to check out, The Horrors of Malformed Men and Blind Beast, both from 1969.

This was a really great conversation, and honestly it was a blessing just to catch up with a good friend. We loved talking about these movies and quite honestly without Samm leading us to them I am not sure when we would have given them a chance. Do me a favor and go pick up a copy of her new book, REVOLUTION IN 35MM and if you can check out some of her upcoming programming events, she picks incredible stuff and always has insights to share. This episode was chosen in conjunction with a collaboration between Samm and us over at ROUGH CUT FAN CLUB, so keep an eye out for that as well. THANKS SAMM FOR BEING A GREAT FRIEND AND AN INCREDIBLE FILM EXPERT!

You can hardly believe it but those stalwart boys of Cinepunx are back! On this explosive new episode we get into it on two classic films we should have seen already, but somehow had not: Apocalypse Now and Platoon. We specifically watched the redux edition of Apocalypse Now if that matters to you, which I had not seen before now. Despite some reservations about the style of these movies, some of the narrative decisions, and the method they were made, we were mostly blown away by these movie.

BACK TOGETHER AND IT FEELS SO GOOD! Hey friends, welcome to our new episode as we check in on the cinema of today! Basically, we are working to try and record more, and I would LOVE to blame Josh but in reality scheduling has been hard for both of us. Episode is still super good, so no worries, but yes, it is a bit of a catch up so we have something to put out. Still love you though
