Paleo-Cinema Podcast

It's Buenopalooza time with two films from Oscar-nominated actor Victor Bueno. First the 1964 creepy low budget take on The Boston Strangler - The Strangler then we move on to a movie that combines charcuterie with Sweeney Todd, the 1971 dark comedy, The Bad Butcher a.k.a. Meat Is Meat a.k.a. Lo strangolatore di Vienna. So put on your polo necks and sit back and enjoy the ride. Support the podcast by donating at patreon.com/paleocinema

For this episode, there are a lot of pimps. First I look at the 1974 movie Truck Turner starring Isaac Hayes and Nichelle Nicholls, then we go back to 1972 for Bernie Casey in Hit Man, based on the same novel and same script as Get Carter. So put on your platform shoes and your best pimp threads and enjoy.   You can support the podcast at patreon.com/paleocinema

For this one I go from a 1970 WW2 caper film, Kelly's Heroes starring Clint Eastwood and Donald Sutherland to a 1957 Hemingway adaptation, The Sun Also Rises starring Tyrone Power and Ava Gardner.

It's all stunts and balloon animals this time.

For the first Paleo-Cinema of 2018 I look at the 1962 exploitation sleazefest that is Satan In High Heels starring Meg Myles and Grayson Hall, then we go to 1973 Sweden for the compulsively watchable but confronting revenge movie Thriller- A Cruel Picture a.k.a. They Call Her One Eye. Plus, there's feedback   Support the podcast at https://patreon.com/paleocinema

This time around I explain the funding changes with Podbean, then the interesting stuff. I look at a 1942 American portmanteau film, TALES OF MANHATTAN with an enormous cast of stars and a very interesting concept. From there, to celebrate the legalisation of Same Sex Marriage in this brown, unpleasant land, I look at the 1970 adaptation of Joe Orton's 1964 play, Entertaining Mr. Sloane starring Beryl Reid, Harry Andrews and Peter McEnerey.  You can support the podcast at patreon.com/paleocinema but please be aware of service charges of 2.9% plus $US0.35 per monthly donation.
