The Bad Seed (1956) with Jess Foltz

Donnie Darko (2001) with Jess Sullivan

Join the Seths and special guest, noted film bro, and A&B Video alum Jess Sullivan as they break through a beautiful cellar door and sass community elders while sleeping through a plane crash as they discuss Richard Kelly's 2001 mind-bending coming-of-age tale "Donnie Darko," starring Jake Gyllenhall, Jena Malone, Mary McDonnell, Beth Grant, Patrick Swayze and Noah Wylie! We'll track down eluisive time wizards in their basements, dodge sketchy rabbits, skip class to deface the school mascot, experience an existential zolly of self and figure out which reality we're in this week on The Cult Section!

The Bad Seed (1956) with Jess Foltz

Join the Seths and special guest Jess Foltz as they skip merrilly past tragedy, start a fight club over a penmanship trophy and pass out on some alcohol-soaked rags in the basement after watching Mervyn LeRoy's 1956 tense masterpiece of domestic horror, "The Bad Seed." Together, we try and solve the mystery before it's too late for everyone in the neighborhood, fail to differentiate between Oscars and Golden Globes, subject ourselves to Freudian analysis, and dig deep into the underbelly of norm-core American life this week on The Cult Section!

Tank Girl (1995)

This week, the Seths find themselves dying of thirst in asteroid ravaged 2033, and only Lori Petty, Naomi Watts, Ice-T and a ragtag gang of misfits can save them as they look at Rachel Talalay's 1995 iconic feminist cinematic comic book, "Tank Girl!" Join us - we'll meet up with some hipster kangaroos, breathe new life into an old fighter jet, spout sarcasm while trying not to drown, tackle an AI-enhanced Malcolm McDowell and blow the hell out of everything that maintains the patriarchy this week on The Cult Section! P-p-pa-ow!

Last Year at Marienbad (1961)

This week, the Seths implore you to remember when you heard this podcast once before... a year ago? Or the year before - either on this liminal platform or another - so many shows and episodes... episodes and shows repeating infinitely, like the hotel-based dreamspaces of Last Year at Marienbad (1961), directed by Alain Resnais and starring Delphine Seyrig, Giorgio Abertazzi and Sacha Pitoeff. Join our hosts as they hide behind weird toparies, dissociate heavily while staring at a balustrade, scream when objects are lit unexpectedly and descend into pipe-organ induced catatonia this week on The Cult Section!

Altered States (1980)

The Seths pass out in a sensory deprivation tank filled with a mysterious truck-themed selzter and trip out into primordial versions of themselves as they watch Ken Russell's proto-walk-and-talk psychedelic journey "Altered States" (1980) starring William Hurt, Blair Brown, Bob Balaban and Charles Haid. Are psychedelics the true path to enlightenment? Will Edward Jessop defeat his own ego, the criticism of his team of sycophantic chums, the unconditional love of his wife and family and a hand-stabbing hellish blood ritual to find himself and the true meaning of existence? Is William Hurt still hot as a cro-magnon carnivore? We'll grasp blindly in the dark under the thousand eyes of a goat angel in search of these answers and many more this week on The Cult Section!
