50. Door (1988) / Sabaku (2000)

It's our 50th episode, and, to celebrate this milestone, we're discussing the two movies that inspired this podcast: DOOR and SABAKU!
When we first started this podcast, Banmei Takahashi's DOOR was a brutally underseen, almost forgotten film. Now, thanks to Third Window Films, it has had a second life! Guy unpacks the story of its production company and his own introduction to the film.
We then take a hard violent turn with SABAKU, a vicious queer pinku from the early 2000s. This film has always been shrouded in mystery. Dave digs deep into secrets, focusing on its oddly named director, "Casino", and its connection to podcast favourite, Hisaysu Sato.

49. Talk to Me, Dicky! (1992)

Dave shows Guy TALK TO ME, DICKY! from 1992, written and directed by its star Alfred Cheung, a very familiar face to those who enjoy 90s Hong Kong cinema. This film has one of the most jaw-dropping narratives of anything we've covered. Just look at this plot synopsis:
"A policeman learns to talk to his penis (which can talk to other men’s penises) and his penis helps him investigate a rape case."
And yet, despite the wild levels of silliness, we somehow go to some very dark places in this episode, from Hong Kong-Mainland relations to post-Tiananmen Square trauma.

48. Issei Sagawa's I Want To Eat (1994)

Guy shows Dave I WANT TO EAT from 1994, written by and starring Issei Sagawa, the Kobe Cannibal. This movie is among the bleakest and grossest things we've ever covered. Guy digs deep into the horrible history of Sagawa from his murder and cannibalism of Renée Hartevelt in Paris to his starring role in an AV film, uncovering amazing and unsettling facts along the way. The film itself is a bizarre nightmarish amalgamation of documentary footage, pornographic scenes, and strange gory reenactments. This is about as wrong as it gets...

47. Big Money Rustlas (2010)

Dave shows Guy BIG MONEY RUSTLAS and nearly ends their friendship. This is a Western from 2010 starring Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope of the Insane Clown Posse. It is a carnival of bad jokes, clown makeup, Jason Mewes pissing his pants, and horse-punching. Featuring some truly baffling cameos from Vanilla Ice to Tom Sizemore to Screech from SAVED BY THE BELL. Dave shares his personal history as an teenage juggalo, and Guy comes close to a full mental breakdown. Whoop whoop?

46. Mind Fuck (1990)

Guy shows Dave MIND FUCK from 1990 (maybe), directed by Mah Wu Tu (maybe), from China (maybe). This period piece porn film is an absolute mystery. Its existence is totally baffling, and Guy digs deeper than ever to attempt to uncover the truth. Black magic battles, S&M whippings, possessed corpses, the longest shower in history, a buck-toothed hunchback, and a farting ninja—regardless of this film's confusing origins, it is a very fun watch!

Mini-Episode: The Xuxa Doll Urban Legend

Remember our episode about SUPER XUXA CONTRA BAIXO ASTRAL? The Brazilian movie starring Queen of the Little Ones, Xuxa, and a whole lot of puppets? Well, Guy has uncovered a very upsetting urban legend about a piece of Xuxa paraphernalia and child murder! Come join us for this spooky mini!

45. The Black Cat (1989)

Dave shows Guy THE BLACK CAT from 1989, not to be confused with the million other films with the same title. This is the one directed by Luigi Cozzi, the Italian b-movie master and charismatic clerk of Dario Argento's Profondo Rosso Store! This film is a sort-of-kind-of meta sequel to Argento's SUSPIRIA and goes to some extremely strange spacey places. Cue vomit, haunted fridges, incongruous rock songs, and random cutaways to black cats!

44. Hawk Jones (1986)

Guy shows Dave HAWK JONES from 1986. The tagline for this sums it up perfectly: The movie with the kids in it! Yep, HAWK JONES is a buddy-cop crime caper with a cast made up entirely of tiny kids. Despite being aimed at a young audience, the kids spout sexist quips, smoke cigars, and blast each other to death with guns and grenades. HAWK JONES also features the greatest villain of straight-to-video cinema: THE DESTROYER! This is a fun one!
