This week Drusilla and Josh get all into Mario Bava's BDSM haunted house flick, The Whip and the Body, starring Christopher Lee. From Wikipedia: "The Whip and the Body (Italian: La frusta e il corpo) is a 1963 gothic horror film directed by Mario Bava under the alias "John M. Old". The film is about Kurt Menliff (Christopher Lee) who is ostracized by his father for his relationship with a servant girl and her eventual suicide. He later returns to reclaim his title and his former fiancée Nevenka (Daliah Lavi) who is now his brother's wife. Menliff is later found murdered, but the locals believe his ghost has returned to haunt the castle for revenge."
But first! Dru got a tattoo. the D from Andy Warhol's Dracula! Cronenberg confirms that Crimes of the Future is a trans movie. They discuss the sexiness of mugshots. Drusilla watched the Gonzo Bollywood action epic R-R-R while Josh did a tour of the work of director Penelope Spheeris with Boys Next Door and Suburbia.
Then they get into the feature which they compare to Scooby-Doo and Dark Shadows. The suicide dagger dome is rad. They go into gothic media, Christopher Lee, Daliah Lavi, Mario Bava, murder by curtains, and more before playing Have They Seen It?
