071 – Threads

Threads (1984) title screen

Tim speaks cogently on the world’s most depressing nuclear apocalypse drama, Threads, from 1984. Jen tries not to fall into a well of despair.

We’re not kidding; Threads is possibly one of the bleakest films ever made, and everyone should see it at least once. Severin Films offers it on region-free DVD.

For a slightly lighter British horror telefilm, try our episode on the controversial faux documentary Ghostwatch.

070 – The Jesco White Saga

I Jesco nuts for gonzo documentaries

Jen welcomes Marvin K to discuss a triptych of documentaries about the dancin’-est outlaw alive, Jesco White, and his fractious extended family.

There’s really nothing else like the Jesco White saga. But for another film brought to us by a listener, there’s our episode on the inept 80s horror flick The Sleeping Car!
