Description

The first Pocket edition of The Dark Fantastic Podcast, a mini-episode, with lots of good things squeezed into its short running time. In this episode:

- The Maltese Falcon (1941) wasn’t the first attempt to adapt Dashiell Hammett’s classic mystery novel. A dive into the many faces of The Maltese Falcon on film.

- The Card Counter: A quick look at Paul Schrader's The Card Counter, an example of a brilliant filmmaker who's more interested in his message, in teaching his audience, than in telling a good story.

- Spotlight on The Veldt, one of the most underrated bands on the planet.
