8. Bong Joon-Ho and Red Light Bandit
50:52||Season 3, Ep. 8In the last episode for 2024 we discuss the films of Bong Joon-Ho and the recent Blu-ray release of Red Light Bandit.Joon-Ho probably came to western attention with Snowpiercer, his end of the world on a super train movie. Then in 2019 Parasite received four Oscars, in what some people saw as a tough field. But did we? And a quick warning, when discussing Parasite we do give away vital plot elements.Red Light Bandit is an altogether more radical offering. Cornerstone of the radical underground Cinema Marginal movement, this subversive and fast paced action drama comedy sci-fi recently had a much needed Blu-ray release.Kevin and Dave are again joined by Phil Todd.https://www.kevinspetchcreative.com/news.htmlWe make no revenue from links or recommendations.Hosts Kevin Petch, Phil Todd and David Benn.Produced by Kevin Petch for Out Of Left Field.7.

Hauntology PtI
53:28||Season 3, Ep. 6Did you grow up in Britain in the 1970's? Were you exposed to highly inappropriate programmes and books, which have left you scarred for life? No this is not another look at video nasties, but the phenomenon of Hauntology. We discuss it's origin, possible meaning and look at just a very small number of extraordinarily weird TV and books adults thought would improve young minds.5. Apollo Movies and Documentaries
54:25||Season 3, Ep. 5The Apollo program put man on the moon, advanced science and technology and changed the course of human history. As NASA announces another delay in its plans to return to the moon, we look back at the movies and documentaries inspired by One Giant Leap.https://www.kevinspetchcreative.com/news.htmlWe make no revenue from links or recommendations.Hosts Kevin Petch and David Benn.Produced by Kevin Petch for Out Of Left Field.4.2.

Crime Films of the 1970's
56:06||Season 3, Ep. 4Derelict British warehouses, seedy New Jersey bars, the cornfields of Kansas. All haunts of tough guys and embittered cops. Any minute a car chase or gunfight or bout of very British swearing might break out. In this episode Kevin and Rob pick their favourite crime films of the 70's, but it's a rich decade and we can't cover everything. In our bonus episode 4b we wrap things up, but do we nail Mr Big?https://www.imdb.com/list/ls003657310/https://www.kevinspetchcreative.com/news.htmlWe make no revenue from links or recommendations.Hosts Kevin Petch, Rob Wood and David Benn.
