Big surprise, a divisive film gets divided opinions on this week's episode of the Lambcast. The Vern Championed the movie to the MOTM spot and he hosts the discussion. Matthew Simpson, Bubbawheat and Richard are dumfounded by the film. Newcomer to the Lambcast Cayley, agrees that the movie is incoherent, without necessarily agreeing with others who share that view. So, is the 1981 film "Possession" from Andrzej Żuławski, a horror film, a domestic drama, or a therapy session for a bad break-up by the director? If you have a taste for the weird, come and listen to some others who try to come to grips with it.
