Not So Trash Reviews - Essay #2 - The Love Witch vs. The Male Gaze
03/01/22 • 73 min
The season of love is over and so in the latest episode of the 'Not So Trash Reviews', Johann is joined by fellow Cinephile Eliza Russo to examine the 2016 film 'The Love Witch'. Written, Directed, Produced and Art Directed by Anna Biller, this movie appears to be a sexploitation film on its surface but has a lot to explore about cult mentality, fragile egos and a full deconstruction of the male gaze. But will the film's love take hold? Grab your potions and get ready to dissect this feminist sexy picture.

Not So Trash Reviews - Essay #1 - Examining Patrick (feat. Adam Marsh of Cine-Lit Podcast)
Welcome to the pilot episode of a new show under The Trash Tapes network, the 'Not So Trash Reviews'! Johann will be reviewing indie darlings. cult cinema and misunderstood gems with different guests within the film community, producing a theoretical deep dive into why these films are so unique.
On this episode, Johann is joined by Scriptwriter and Cine-Lit Podcast host Adam Marsh to examine the 1978 Ozploitation film 'Patrick', a movie about a coma patient causing havoc through the power of telekinesis. While the premise may seem schlocky, we explore how Richard Franklin's underrated film is actually a tribute to Alfred Hitchcock. It is time to grab the doctor robes and prepare the typewriters as we prepare to examine 'Patrick'.

Tape #40 - Xtro
It is time to look up at the stars with this special lost episode of The Trash Tapes! This time, Johann and Ed explore the 1982 surrealist sci fi, Xtro! We examine everything from its gore, its surrealism, its goofiness, its full blown nihilism and also just how wonderfully Middle Class British it all is... oh, and it has clowns, cocoons, body horror, and the weirdest melting alien roaming the countryside. But is this movie out of this world or just a head trip? Come along and take a look. Not all Extra Terrestrials are Friendly!
