013 - Blood Feast w/ LaborKyle
Manage episode 385173371 series 3484429
Who's hungry? This week, all the way from the bottom of the stew, we're joined by noted Herschell Gordon Lewis expert LaborKyle to talk about Blood Feast (1963). In doing so, we summon Ishtar (which means we talk about all sorts of stuff like treating your artistic work as work, how Victorians ate mummies, and the warm piss stream of Marxism).
You can find LaborKyle on places like YouTube, Patreon, Twitter, and Bluesky! He also has the podcast All Gamers Are Bastards (AGAB) and the show Profane Illuminations with friend of the pod TheLitCritGuy.
