1975 - The Cult Films

Devin & James are back in the Den with special returning guest star, CASEY O'CONNOR!! We needed an extra hand to take on the first episode of a new ongoing series about the cinema of 1975, with our first deep dive being into all the huge CULT FILMS of '75, celebrating their 50th anniversary this year! We start at the top with the iconic ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW. We then take that time warp back to visit MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL. Next are a couple of exploitation classics from two grindhouse giants, Russ Meyer's SUPERVIXENS, and Rudy Ray Moore in DOLEMITE! We then see, hear, and feel Ken Russell and The Who's rock opera, TOMMY, with a LISZTOMANIA chaser. We finish off with a batch of post-apocalyptic films, each with its own bleak view of the future: ROLLERBALL, DEATH RACE 2000, and A BOY AND HIS DOG. And this is only the start of the discussion about all the incredible celluloid that came from 1975!
