Best Worst Podcast

Welcome to Best Worst Podcast, covering the best and worst of cinema. Aside from referencing Michael Stephenson’s 2009 Troll 2 phenomena documentary Best Worst Movie the podcast name refers to our love of, and interest in discussing, both the very best of challenging auteurist cinema and the very worst of Z-grade trash!

    BWP no.044: NTIFF 2021 - an alternative 'festival experience'

    As the Southern hemisphere winter looms we're missing the upcoming thrill of NZIFF season, which has understandably been pushed back to Novemeber due to international COVID impacts. But never fear, our very own Doug Dillaman has thought up a way to fill this winter cinematic hole, with the 'Not The (NZ) International Film Festival' or 'NTIFF' challenge! In this episode we are joined by long time friend, cine-fiend, and NTIFF co-conspirator Steve Austin as we thrash out our personal NTIFF programmes. For more detail about the challenge search 'NTIFF' on letterboxd.com...add scotch to taste, and enjoy.
