Welcome to the Thunderdome, or whatever dome it is that this movie takes place under, as Aaron and Pete, joined on this episode by friend of the pod John Hummel, sat through and talked about the 2000 Sci-fi quasi-Epic, Battlefield Earth. Folks, this one was a doozy. From questionable cinematography at best, overcomplicated plot points that; even when explained, still managed to go over your head, and the small rodent that died in John Travolta’s pants; this movies got it all… but just none if it

This week we are dipping into a bit of the meta-commentary realm as we watched the 1997 German film, “Funny Games”. Tune in as we discuss the way this film plays with ( or honestly totally disregards) storytelling; and the films overall commentary on violence in filming how we find it sticks the the landing. Also discussed are Pete’s thicc ass, the appeal of Rammstein and Phoebe Bridgers, and the benefits of drinking tea with your friends. This and more on I Didn’t Need to See that!

Content Warning: Torture, Self Harm/Suicide, Physical Abuse, GoreOn this episode we broke out the iron chastity belts and locked ourselves in a dark basement for god-knows-how-long as we watched the 2008 French Extremity horror film “Martyrs”.
