This big ol' Baconator-sized episode is chock-full of your favorite segments, originally released during the stream on VSD2024 (Oct.19), and now released as one giant feast. Thank you for everyone who was involved or showed up to support on VSD, we couldn't have made it our best Video Store Day ever without you! Please continue to support as we make our way into your hearts and disc players and toward our $1.3M goal. We kick off with guest Kristen Grote, who's here to talk all about her summer journey through Scarecrow's selection of Italian Poliziotteschi films, and to show us what makes a polizio-flick Bingo card (hint: mustaches and nightclubs baby!) A new "Sex with Sandra" drops with the discussion of TEETH (2007) and why men everywhere should be very, very afraid. Matt and Emalie face off once more with another "Raunch vs. Rom," pinning the wacky slasher INVISIBLE MANIAC against the classic (returning champion) 10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU, so rock the vote below, and please also vote in the US election as WELL. We're not done with special segments yet! Sometimes pieces are missing and we have to fill in the gaps, and in this new "Missing Pieces" Emalie brings up Tobe Hooper's debut EGGSHELLS (1969), while Matt talks a piece he didn't even know was missing with Roger Donaldson's MARIE (1985). Raise your Sayles for Emalie's first pick, John Sayles' PASSION FISH, and Matt talks the brand-spankin'-new copy we received of 1967's golf-noir BANNING. Emalie gets campy with SOMETIMES AUNT MARTHA DOES DREADFUL THINGS, and we have a SPECIAL SURPRISE GUEST (KEVIN CLARKE!!!!!!! IYKYK!!!) talking about the absolute classic Miyazaki movie PORCO ROSSI. Matt brings up a perhaps underseen early John Woo joint called HEROES SHED NO TEARS (1984). Our dog movie is NOT the indie band, but IS a honestly delightful and gorgeous French movie based on an old tale called BELLE & SEBASTIAN (2013). PHEW, thanks for watching, thanks for loving Scarecrow Video always 'n' forever!
