So...I Started A Podcast About Weird Movies

Over the past few months, I've been developing a podcast. I've wanted to do one for years and I've tried to launch two in the past. Yet, neither got off the ground.

But, that's all changed. I've settled on an idea and gathered my materials together. Words will be said and things will happen...I guess. Introducing Warped Celluloid, the best new podcast for far-out films.

Here's the cover art...

...pretty vibrant, isn't it?

Anyway, the structure of each episode goes as follows. Every two weeks, my co-host Chandler and I will talk about a weird film usually chosen by me (what makes it unique, interesting filmmaking techniques, fun bits of trivia or behind-the-scenes stories, context within film history, etc.). Each discussion will last for about 30-90 minutes. At the beginning of each month, we'll talk about two movies specially chosen as a double feature by yours truly. Maybe, we get a whole hour and a half out of talking about Midsommar and Sleepaway Camp in one episode. Who knows?

We'll be launching the show in some time within the next three weeks. For our inaugural episode, we'll be covering the punk rock sci-fi cult comedy Repo Man (1984, dir. Alex Cox) and a darkly comedic indie gem called The Art of Self-Defense (2019, dir. Riley Stearns). The theme binding these two? New Year's Resolutions! How? Just hold on a little while longer. All will be explained in good time.

Stay tuned! You can find the show in the following platforms:
