Terry and Joe close out the David Lynch side of S03 with a very unorthodox text: 1999's The Straight Story.
Or maybe it just seems odd. On closer inspection, though, there are clear Lynchian elements; they're just lurking under the surface!
Plus: an Oscar-nominated performance by Richard Farnsworth, hitting deer on the highway, and an out of control lawnmower action sequence.

Bryan and Joe reach the end of the Nightbreed road with Clive Barker's Nightbreed Volumes 1-3, a comic series by writer Marc Andreyko with art by Piotr Kowalski, Emmanuel Xerx Javier and Devmalya Pramanik.
Up for discussion: the pros and cons of standalone stories, a punishing backstory for Boone (C/W: everything), canonical debates about Ashberry: Serial Killer, and confusion about the series' end.

It's finally time: we've reached Joe's favourite Cronenberg film, 1996's Crash.
Expect lots of gushing from Joe, but what does first time viewer Terry think of the controversial film adaptation of J.G. Ballard's novel?
Plus: is this sexy, clinical or both? Why is Elias Koteas so hot? Is the gay sex adequate? And where is Holly Hunter?

After a brief venture into crime thrillers, David Cronenberg made a return to the body horror subgenre with 2022’s Crimes of the Future. He brought along his current go-to actor, Viggo Mortensen, to tell the story of an aging performance artist whose partner…uses an eXistenZ style device to cut out the extra organs he grows regularly. As one does on a Tuesday evening.
I am joined by the incredibly funny and thoughtful Gena Radcliffe (from Kill by Kill Podcast and AOAS’s very own White Ladies in Crisis) to go deep into this film’s message about aging, illness and disease, disability, and evolution.

Our journey into the realm of hot, messy women embroiled in murder mysteries continues with Tate Taylor's adaptation of Paula Hawkins' The Girl On The Train.
Much like The Woman in the Window, the film stars an A-list actress (here it's Emily Blunt) doing great work in a lukewarm thriller.
Plus: female archetypes, too complicated plotting, our desire for a miniseries, and comparisons to male-centric "prestige" pictures like Oppenheimer

Terry and Joe finally hit one of former's most anticipated titles on the pod: David Lynch's surreal 1997 masterpiece, Lost Highway.
This mind fuck of a film noir has true crime connections in Robert Blake, dual roles for Patricia Arquette, but makes the mistake of subbing out Bill Pullman for Balthazar Getty? Oof!
Plus: impossible Hollywood houses, nightmare imagery, and wild speculations.

Bryan and Joe return for the first of two episodes on Nightbreed comics. The first is a 400 page comic omnibus principally written by D.G. Chichester, including an adaptation of the Director's Cut of the film, the X-Men-esque "Blasphemers" arc, and (unbeknownst to us) a Nightbreed/Hellraiser cross-over!
Plus: a rotating roster of artists, our favorite Blasphemer characters, and the Archive's casual (1990s) misogyny

Disabled folks who have by default a non-existent to low quality of life? Check. Disabled characters being a burden to loved ones? Check. Magical cures? Check.
2024’s Night Swim is a layer cake of the disability tropes we know and love, so Nichole channels her simmering rage to give a refresher on some of them (since we circle them frequently here on the pod).

Terry and Joe tackle another challenging Cronenberg title with the adaptation of David Henry Hwang's M. Butterfly (1993).
Is this the straightest queer film ever? Although Jeremy Irons and John Lone are both doing great work, the film's reticence to engage with its gender, queer, and even political themes frustrates us to no end. By playing this realist and straight (in all senses of the word), the film is a bad marriage of director and material.

The White Ladies in Crisis crew get back to basics with the first of three episodes dedicated to hot, alcoholic, messy, voyeuristic women embroiled in murder mysteries.
Entry 1 is Joe Wright's long delayed adaptation of The Woman in the Window, which finds Amy Adams in unflattering pyjamas and the largest NY apartment we've ever seen, spying on Julianne Moore (or is it Jennifer Jason Leigh?) getting murdered.
Plus: grown-ass men playing boys, twists on twists on twists, a Single White Female sequel, and why Jenn cried twice.

Disability representation in media doesn’t exist in a vacuum because disability is something that can impact anyone at anytime – meaning it is so important to touch on the intersectional points of representation.
Nichole is joined in a discussion of the landmark, but complicated, film Se7en by Hannah Oglivie, host of Fats on Film, a podcast that discusses the representation of plus-sized bodies across all genres of television and film.
We touch on so much in our discussion of Se7en:
> there are some arguably terrible individuals associated with this movie now but wanted to still have this conversation in the hopes that there is a benefit of sharing our thoughts
> how media depictions of disability, weight, gender and sexuality begin to inform our associations and identity from a young age
> how disability and weight are linked to the “religious morality” framework of the Seven Deadly Sins

Joe and Terry return to Twin Peaks to discuss David Lynch's sensational (and incredibly upsetting) prequel film, Fire Walk With Me (1992). C/W: Sexual Assault
How does Terry fare with the cacophony of new characters? How do we feel about the recast actors? And how freaking great is Sheryl Lee in a film that makes the actress go there?

Joe and Bryan return to the world of Books of Blood to discuss director John Harrison's 2009 UK adaptation, Book of Blood. C/W: brief sexual assault.
It's nearly the same narrative as the 2020 Hulu Books of Blood, only this one has grime and sexuality. It feels properly Clive Barker-y!
Plus: Lord of the Rings ghosts, not enough Doug Bradley, handjobs and BDSM, and debate about Mary's ending

For this episode, Nichole is covering two films just released in theatres – Immaculate and The First Omen (2024). As a fan of religious horror, I was very excited to see both but was very surprised to find myself thinking about these films well after viewing and what they had to say about bodily autonomy (both in regards to reproductive health and beyond).
