It's our 50th episode! To celebrate, we have lined up a TRIPLE TREAT with Doctor Ethan Lyon along for the ride. We shoot up the streets with Isaac Hayes in Truck Turner (1974) directed by Jonathan Kaplan. Then we indulge in some Indonesian black magic insanity with Special Silencers (1982), directed by Arizal. And finally, we go for maximum bamboozlement with famed egosploitation miracle worker Neil Breen's Fateful Findings (2013). Vengeful pimps, rhizomial gut explosions and completely incoherent messianic ramblings - just what every 50th celebration needs.
We didn't think it was possible to spoil Special Silencers, but will be announcing a Spoiler Territory section for the other two films. So if you haven't seen them before you listen, you can nevertheless avoid spoilers for Truck Turner by skipping ahead to the 1:01:33 mark, and for Fateful Findings by skipping ahead to 2:25:36.
