This week on The Stacks, we close out 2023 with four features - in part 1 (0:00-1:07:35) we're discussing the second Harry Palmer film, Guy Hamilton's 1966 entry Funeral in Berlin, which remains satirical but hews closer to existing spy cinema, and in part 2 (1:07:35-2:37:05) we have a triple feature, discussing Richard Franklin's surprisingly good 1983 slasher legacy sequel Psycho II, the violent and silly 1976 Sonny Chiba picture Karate Warriors (directed by Kazuhiko Yamaguchi), and the totally unique Filipino musical / comedy / yakuza conspiracy Kakabakaba ka ba? (or Will Your Heart Beat Faster, 1980, directed by Mike De Leon). We conclude as usual with discussion of all other stuff we've watched on physical media since last time and make our picks for the first episode of 2024.

The live list of The Stacks is online at https://letterboxd.com/jshopa/list/the-stacks/
