Each episode we cover news in the film, TV, and video game industries, before diving into review of a topical movie, and deeper discussion of a more obscure film chosen by one among us--the Morticians--and preferably one that the others haven't seen. This is where movies come to be examined. To die, or maybe, to be reborn. Scrub in!

Films about Palestine/by Palestinians!
A cinematic resource list curated by friend of the show Amir Moverman.
Welcome back to the Morgue!
On this episode, we continue to discuss William Friedkin's directorial body by reviewing two of his lesser-known works: Cruising and Sorcerer. One of the pioneers of the New Hollywood movement, we examine how both of these films demonstrate a clear stylistic identity, how Friedkin blended different genres and media to create them, and how the controversy around them at the time of release has changed in the decades since. Grab your leather jackets, color-coded handkerchiefs, and volatile nitroglycerin—time to scrub in!
