Episode 169: Brian De Palma Redux Director's Club

It's time for a new take on a director previously covered by the Director's Club.  We won't keep you in suspense - It's Brian De Palma Redux!  Former DC host, Jim Laczkowski reprises his role in the spirited debate on the career of one of our more controversial subjects.  We'll cover such horror staples as "Carrie" and "Dressed to Kill" as well as contrast him to another director who may have influenced him just a bit.  We won't forget early favorites like "Phantom of the Paradise" or mainstream hits like "The Untouchables" and "Mission Impossible".  Love him or hate him, we hope you enjoy our Brian De Palma Blow Out!
