Movies and Chaos
This is a podcast looking at the impact and legacy of cult films. It’s hosted by Mark Palermo (former critic, screenwriter of Detention) and Serena Whitney (former critic, programmer of The Revue Cinema in Toronto). The movies discussed tie into screenings happening at The Revue and Thrillema, a cult series Palermo helps run in Halifax. Why do these movies endure? Is some stuff too much for modern audiences?

Movies and Chaos
Post-Pandemic Cinema
We look at how the 2020 pandemic caused a disruption in film culture, and reflect on the movies lost between the cracks of the COVID era. Also, why do movies look like that now? - examining claims of a popular YouTube film essay. And programming for a younger audience: What movies make GenZ nostalgic?
