THE SOHO CINEMA CLUB

Join Miles Flanagan, Jared Carlson and Sean Sardi as they delve into the battle of the broads - Baby Jane vs Straight Jacket. Learn about these two 'hagsploitation' classics. How "What Ever Happened to Baby Jane," starring Hollywood icons Bette Davis and Joan Crawford, spawned its own genre and how Rock Hudson helped a Hollywood icon get their first starring role in "Straight Jacket." The team also take a look at the ground-breakin...

Join Miles Flanagan, Jared Carlson and Sean Sardi as they ask the simple question... “Is this the sleaziest double bill ever?" These potentially classic 1972 movies - DEATH LINE and NIGHT HAIR CHILD - are both about families, but one’s concerned with under-age incest and the other cannibalism. Released in U.K cinemas together in 72, they must have had many rushing for the exits. Definitely two crazy exploitation films that could ne...

Join Miles Flanagan, Jared Carlson and Sean Sardi as they ask the simple question... "Was THE BEST OF BENNY HILL simply too smutty for TV?" This classic 1974 compilation movie has influenced countless comedians and comedy films in the decades since, but does it still hold up (ooh Vicar!) and will it ever bounce back (ooh Matron!) in fashion? Sit back and enjoy a ribald and entertaining discussion on all things BENNY HILL and US/Bri...

Listen now and find out what gets Jared so excited about SATAN'S SKIN, what Sean found so creepy, why Miles insists on referencing Je...

The epically titled, and six million dollar budgeted MIGHTY PEKING MAN. Released in 1977 to cash in on the KING KONG craze, due to the 1976 Dino De Laurentiss remake, this low budget Shaw Bros. feature film has to be seen to be believed. Or at least heard! Hong Kong fil...
