About this listen

 **Heavy content warning! This episode contains coverage of a very problematic (and cursed) piece of film history. For those who wish to join us in the murky waters ahead, listener discretion is advised…Today we’re introducing the listener-selected winner of this year’s Miniseries MAYhem, our latest genre series: Lost and Found!!We’re going deep on the origins of the Found Footage movement with some complicated thoughts on Ruggero Deodato’s infamous and objectionable 1980 satire of western docu-journalism. It’s upsetting, it’s perverse, but it represents the beginning of a new era for horror.While we don’t encourage you to watch this film, we hope this episode will provide you the context for the series that’s about to unfold. Next week we’re zooming ahead to the internet age of 1999 for one of the greatest American movies ever made, THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT.
