    Continuing our Alien and Predator series deep dive, we bore into Paul W. S. Anderson's ode to ancient astronauts and Lovecraft.

    [Preview] Psycho (1960)

    They're calling it the most psychoanalytic film ever made! Barto and Charlie talk mirrors and duality, the gaze and how films teach us to desire, Hitchcock's fear of cops, and that there is a lot more of Psycho in American Psycho then we might have realized.

    Episode 108: Alien Resurrection (1997)

    We are making our way through the Alien and Predator franchises and are so thoroughly in the late 90s. Yellow tints, lots of leather, and it's gay! We dissect ideas of power, queerness, the psyche, and basketball.

    Episode 107: Alien³ (1992)

    It's long hallway time! Along with the film's troubled production, we discuss what Fincher's nihilistic entry to the series has to say about queerness, the AIDS epidemic, pregnancy and the nuclear family, Christianity and the possibility of redemption, the confluence of the prison with the mental hospital and the factory, as well as Foucault and Deleuze and the transition from a disciplinary to a control society.

    Episode 106: Predator 2 (1990)

    We are the Predators, and we're hunting for meaning beyond "wow that's racist" in the critically panned sequel, Predator 2 (1990). We speculate who the Predator is an analog for, how the director's background may have influenced the uh.... portrayal of certain characters, and we also suggest that the writers - Jim and John Thomas - maybe knew about the CIA's involvement in the distribution of crack in L.A.

    [Preview] Neon Genesis Evangelion: Episode 18
