We celebrate our 1 year pod-iversary by beginning a new series of conservative films, specifically the violent fantasies of S. Craig Zahler. We begin with Zahler's directorial debut Bone Tomahawk, a western-horror starring Kurt Russell, Richard Jenkins, Matthew Fox, and Patrick Wilson. Zahler has a stylish eye and works well in genre conventions, but what lies beneath this horror western is a lot of tired tropes painting native tribes as inhuman. And we start tracking the different types of Manly Men in the Zahler-verse. Discussion also includes:
- Scorsese's KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON;
- Under-appreciated mensch David Arquette;
- Traditional vs. Revisionist westerns;
- And some of our favorite moments from our first year of podcasting!
