6. Nick Szostakiwskyj’s Black Mountain Side (2014)

Welcome to the show notes for the sixth episode of the Loathsome Things Podcast! In the northern Taiga Cordillera, some dudes found something strange between bouts of playing cards and drinking, so they did the only natural thing to do: get some other dude to come here. Enter Black Mountain Side, a movie that, at its heart, is about male friendship, fellowship, and camaraderie. Also getting in on the feel-good action is a Lovecraftian deity that manifests as a deer standing up on its hind (get it!) legs. What a wacky crew! Go enjoy yourself a watch of this lovely low-budget flick, then listen in as we discuss all the zany antics in this episode of Loathsome Things!   If you would like to recommend a movie, tell us more things about Onchocerca volvulus, congratulate us for spelling “camaraderie” correctly on the first try, or tell us where we can go to find classy antique furniture under the ice, you can do so by reaching out to us on Twitter: @LoathsomePod Instagram: @LoathsomePod Facebook: @LoathsomePodcast This episode is brought to you by Hotty’s Medical-grade Fireplace Equipment Manufacturing Ltd.
