NECROMANIACS PODCAST ·

2024/08/01

This week we go back to 1973 for Sergio Martino’s roughie TORSO.

This week, we discuss the modern classic AMERICAN PSYCHO. Based on the Brett Easton Ellis novel, this film was controversial when it came out in 2000 largely due to it’s themes of misogyny and overall cynical point of view.
