THE SOHO CINEMA CLUB
A fun and intelligent look at classic film releases (yes, that’s a real thing) and horror and fantasy double bills from the 1960s, 70s and 80s - and everything in-between. You get the idea.
Episodes
Join Miles Flanagan, Jared Carlson and Sean Sardi as they explore the creative explosion that is the transgressive classic FUNERAL PARADE OF ROSES (1969). Learn how this one film essentially changed the face of Japanese cinema in the late 1960s. See how it became one of the most inspirational films of the decade (and beyond). And discover how star PETER (Shinnosuke Ikehata) channeled their unorthodox upbringing into this startling ...
Join Miles Flanagan, Jared Carlson and Sean Sardi as they delve into the battle of the broads - Baby Jane vs Straight Jacket. Learn about these two 'hagsploitation' classics. How "What Ever Happened to Baby Jane," starring Hollywood icons Bette Davis and Joan Crawford, spawned its own genre and how Rock Hudson helped a Hollywood icon get their first starring role in "Straight Jacket." The team also take a look at the ground-breakin...
Join Miles Flanagan, Jared Carlson and Sean Sardi as they ask the simple question... “Is this the sleaziest double bill ever?" These potentially classic 1972 movies - DEATH LINE and NIGHT HAIR CHILD - are both about families, but one’s concerned with under-age incest and the other cannibalism. Released in U.K cinemas together in 72, they must have had many rushing for the exits. Definitely two crazy exploitation films that could ne...
Join Miles Flanagan, Jared Carlson and Sean Sardi as they ask the simple question... "Was THE BEST OF BENNY HILL simply too smutty for TV?" This classic 1974 compilation movie has influenced countless comedians and comedy films in the decades since, but does it still hold up (ooh Vicar!) and will it ever bounce back (ooh Matron!) in fashion? Sit back and enjoy a ribald and entertaining discussion on all things BENNY HILL and US/Bri...
Is this truly France's epic horror failure? A film supposedly designed to compete with the likes of HALLOWEEN and FRIDAY 13th, yet so bizarre and inept that that idea beggars belief! Let's see what the SOHO team think and if they feel it deserves the title 'one of the worst movies ever made.'
Taking their cue from actual 1970s cinema double-bills, the SOHO team look at two of the U.K's TIGON tales of terror, 1971's BLOOD ON SATAN'S CLAW (a.k.a SATAN'S SKIN) and BEAST IN THE CELLAR (a.k.a. THE CELLAR). Yes, this was a real double bill, and we have the Quad poster in our cinema to prove it. Listen now and find out what gets Jared so excited about SATAN'S SKIN, what Sean found so creepy, why Miles insists on referencing Je...
In this episode our SOHO CINEMA CLUB team of cinephiles Miles Flanagan and Jared Carlson sit through what may be the worst movie ever made. Or at least one of them. The epically titled, and six million dollar budgeted MIGHTY PEKING MAN. Released in 1977 to cash in on the KING KONG craze, due to the 1976 Dino De Laurentiss remake, this low budget Shaw Bros. feature film has to be seen to be believed. Or at least heard! Hong Kong fil...
This episode our SOHO CINEMA CLUB team of cinephiles Miles Flanagan, Nick Chomicki and Jared Carlson sit through what may be the worst movie ever made. Or at least one of them. Starring an amazing ensemble of A-List comedy stars - Jerry Lewis, Madeline Kahn, Marty Feldman, Orson Welles and Jim Backus (to name but a few) - and based on the comic political novel "Slapstick" by Kurt Vonnegut Jr., the question is "How could this movie ...

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
