TotalCultZone Presents

Join ThatFKingGuy and Captain J Spaulding as they talk about a "Movie" that's a cross between, "The Thing" and "The Descent"... at least that's what we think was typed into ChatGPT to create this.IT'S AN OUTRAGE!!!!Bone Keeper is directed and written by Howard J. Ford (DarkGame, Escape) and stars Sarah Alexandra Marks (Escape, Punch, Bogieville), Louis James (Help, Manor Of Darkness), Tiffany Hannam-Daniels (River Of Blood), as well as British acting royalty John Rhys-Davies (Lord of the Rings, Raiders of the Lost Ark).A cosmic fireball crashes into remote woodland, awakening a terrifying creature hidden in the depths. 1976: James Wheeler enters a cave determined to uncover the truth – and is never seen again. All that’s found is a single frame of Super 8 film, capturing the silhouette of a horrifying creature. Now Wheeler’s granddaughter, along with five explorers, set out to investigate the legend of the ‘Bone Keeper’. But deep in the caves, they realise they are being hunted, and the line between hunter and prey blurs. Will they uncover the truth and escape the creature – or become the next missing souls?Bone Keeper celebrated its World Premiere at FrightFest Glasgow and will be available on Digital Download from 6th April  LINKS!CptSpaulding on Bluesky, follow to see him get a stew onTotalCultZone.com for all my stuffFKinghello@Gmail.com - To Direct message without that social media guffMusicTatami: Midnight DriveMusic from #Uppbeat https://uppbeat.io/t/tatami/midnight-drive License code: I27A9WQID9MEZUKO

This week Nona and myself head out on a text based adventure to the land of ObexSet in 1987 and shot in monochrome, OBEX is a surreal lo-fi fantasy adventure with a cautionary tale about living life through a screen. The world premiere took place at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival where IndieWire called it “Eraserhead meets The Legend of Zelda.”Conor Marsh lives a secluded life with his dog, Sandy, until one day he begins playing OBEX, a new, state-of-the-art computer game. When Sandy disappears, the line between reality and gaming blurs, and Conor must enter the world of OBEX to save her.OBEX is a fantasy-adventure feature from the creative-mind of Albert Birney; writer and director of Strawberry Mansion (2021). Co-written by Pete Ohs (Erupcja), it stars Birney alongside Callie Hernandez (Jethica) and Frank Mosley (Rent Free).The score was recorded by Josh Dibb, founding member of experimental rock band Animal Collective.NonaGoff for Nona stuffTotalCultZone.com for the Total Cult ZineFKinghello@Gmail.com - To Direct message without that social media guffPatty Ron Buy me a coffee get access to the super secret Total Cult Club, includes uncut episodes and occasional bonus pods with catsMusic;Tatami: Midnight DriveMusic from #Uppbeat https://uppbeat.io/t/tatami/midnight-driveLicense code: I27A9WQID9MEZUKO

Last time Mark(100 things we learned from film) was on, we talked about Thatcher, this time it's amazingly someone even worse than Thatcher. In fact, we're having a hard time trying to figure out who could be worse than this guyBased on the award-winning, bestselling book ‘At the Wolf’s Table’ by Rosella Postorino, The Tasters reconstructs the true story of the women coerced into being food tasters for Adolf Hitler towards the end of World War II.In 2012, at the age of 95, a woman named Margot Wölk revealed that she had been one of the young German women forced to taste Hitler's meals at his hiding spot known as the 'Wolf's Lair'. Until then, no one had ever known about the existence of the food tasters and Margot Wölk was the only one among them to survive the end of the war. Her story inspired Rosella Postorino to write At the Wolf’s Table, which in turn inspired the script for The Tasters.Directed by Silvio Soldini (Days and Clouds, Two Lives), The Tasters stars Elisa Schlott (Our Miracle Years, The Empress), Max Riemelt (Sense8, Two To One, Berlin Syndrome) and Alma Hasun (The Glory of Life, Corsage).LINKS AND STUFFMark and his 100 thingsTotalCultZone.com for the Total Cult ZineFKinghello@Gmail.com - To Direct message without that social media guffBuy me a coffee get access to the super secret Total Cult Club, includes uncut episodes and occasional bonus pods with catsMusic;Tatami: Midnight DriveMusic from #Uppbeathttps://uppbeat.io/t/tatami/midnight-driveLicense code: I27A9WQID9MEZUKO

Me and our Joe put on a little fill-um and enjoy life a little bit more because of it, even if Graysome White is in itThis sweet and uplifting Irish road movie from filmmaker Michael Head (Bermondsey Tales: Fall of the Roman Empire) packs in the laughs as it follows Dermot (Brenock O’Connor) and Elvis (Owen Colgan), two music lovers who run a struggling record shop in Omagh, Northern Ireland.Facing an unpaid rent bill and their vicious landlord Sadie (Derry Girls’ Tara Lynne O’Neill), who’s eager to get them out of her building, the pair stumble across a deal too good to be true: rare, vintage records of blues legend Robert Johnson for sale in Cork at a knock-down price. If they can make it to the other end of Ireland in time, then maybe they could get the rare vinyl, and save the shop…With just two days to get there the pair head off in a rusty Vauxhall as old as the hills. As they navigate their beautiful journey, they meet locals and make new friends along the way.A fun and off-the-wall buddy movie, The Spin is based upon a semi-autobiographical short story by Omagh music star Mark McCausland (The Lost Brothers, The Basement, McKowski). McCausland also provides the film’s beautiful folk soundtrack.Alongside O'Connor, Colgan and O'Neill, The Spin also stars Pussycat Dolls' Kimberley Wyatt as well as Maura Higgins (formerly Love Island & I'm A Celeb) who makes her feature length acting debut. The film also includes cameos from Irish music royalty, Barry Devlin (Horslips) and Steve Wickham (The Waterboys).LINKS!Joe ThingsTotalCultZone.com for all my stuffFKinghello@Gmail.com - To Direct message without that social media guffBuy me a fancy coffee and some bootleg DVD from TromaPatty RonMusicTatami: Midnight DriveMusic from #Uppbeathttps://uppbeat.io/t/tatami/midnight-driveLicense code: I27A9WQID9MEZUKO
