The Hi-Lo Bro Show
Richard and Garrett talk up film culture: the Good, the Bad, and the Wonderfully Awful. We take on a piece of midnight trash/cult pop filmmaking, and pair it with a daunting, difficult piece of “High Art” cinema. Spoilers everywhere: these conversations are meant for listeners who have seen the films under discussion. We also delve into significant works of film criticism and history, as well as the source material for some of the greatest movies ever made. And some of the worst.
