  • 207 - Of Unknown Origin & More... (with Matthew David Wilder)
    Jan 21 2025

    Writer and Video Archives Cinema Club regular, Matthew David Wilder, joins Quentin Tarantino and Roger Avary as they rip apart the house in George P. Cosmatos’ Of Unknown Origin. A hard working businessman recently finally finished his townhouse renovations only to find that he’s not the only one who moved in. What starts as a simple game of cat and mouse turns into obsession. Quentin, Roger, and Matthew discuss how their opinions on the film have changed over the years, the connections to other films like Shock to the System and American Psycho, and the theories on just who the invader truly is.

    Then, over on Patreon, the guys continue the conversation. Second on today’s billing — we’ve got a third world hitman gone berserk! Quentin, Roger, and Matthew pull the apartheid-sploitation Funeral for An Assassin off the shelves. Starring Vic Morrow, the guys discuss how they discovered this film from trailers on another tape, the muscularity of the directing, and which side this movie is really on. And, to bring it all together, we’ve got a Canucksploitation sex comedy that will have you begging for special treatment.

Who are the straw dogs?

Who are the straw dogs? For Peckinpah perhaps it is us, the audience who are the straw dogs? 🤔

Movie heaven

I absolutely love this podcast and the movie choices are so eclectic and unexpected. It is like a Movie School education in its own right. You learn so much about how to handle plotting, main characters, subsidiary characters, setting. Quentin Tarantino talks twenty to the dozen (of course!) but it is all such fun. Just love it.

The new Siskel & Ebert

I could listen to Quentin & Roger talk about films all day,
As a huge film fan as well as a huge fan of Quentin & Roger’s work I would highly recommend this Podcast.
They are the “Gene Siskel” & “Roger Ebert” of today.
