In episode 057, Josh also fills us in on the state of movie exhibition in 2019!
Jen and guest Mike Rosen finally get back around to silent classic Häxan! Mike brings his expertise in witch-hunting manuals, proto-MGTOW inquisitors, and torture devices of the early modern period (not joking).
For more Mike, listen to our episode on Marlo Thomas’s Free to Be…You and Me!
Mike Rosen returns to vituperate Jonathan King’s unasked-for sequel to Vile Pervert: The Truth Awakens!
Listen to our discussion of the original Vile Pervert: The Musical here.
He’d probably tell you that they were bought and paid for, but we still recommend looking at victim statements from Jonathan King’s 2001 trial. We will also remind you that he served four years of a seven-year sentence for sexually abusing teenage boys. He continues to bitch about how unfairly he was treated to this day (we did yet another episode on him in 2020, because he keeps making videos).
Jen and Mike discuss the clean-cut beat of ABBA: The Movie, starring the enduringly popular Swedes and directed by Lasse Hallstrom. Note: this is the second film we’ve discussed that stars a convicted child molester. Hmm.
Sure, you could watch Lasse Hallstrom’s polite middlebrow films, or you could enjoy all the videos he made with ABBA over on their official YouTube channel! We suggest the latter!
For more musical confusion, listen to our episode on Under the Cherry Moon!
Jen is joined by Mike Rosen to discuss Vile Pervert: The Musical. This slice of pure internet was made by Jonathan King, a music impresario and TV presenter turned convicted sex criminal. If you’ve been looking for the perfect mix of mobile phone video, Oscar Wilde, and sheer unfettered egotism, this will have to do. The entire movie is available for free on YouTube, if you’re a masochist or love demented music as much as Mike does.
Our other episodes about the, uh, work of Jonathan King may be heard here and here.
