Episode 39: Eyes Without a Face + The Awful Dr Orlof

About face! Sakana joins us this week to check out some seminal body-horror films: Eyes Without a Face (1960), directed by Georges Franju, and The Awful Dr Orlof (1962), directed by Jess Franco. Doctoral God complexes, the French scars of Nazi occupation, and the proliferation of blind killers in European films of the 1960's - we discuss all this and more. We will be announcing a Spoiler Territory section for both films, so if you haven't seen them before you listen, you can nevertheless avoid spoilers for Eyes Without a Face by skipping ahead to the 1:15:10 mark, and for The Awful Dr Orlof by skipping ahead to 1:52:29.
