Ken Russell's '80s All Over
from I Dig Crazy Flicks with CatBusRuss · host Cat Bus Russ
"Ninety For Chill: The #Podcast with @CatBusRuss" offers the world the ultimate questionable quadruple feature. If it was between 70 and 100 minutes in length and directed by Ken Russell during the '80s, it is here. CatBusRuss's weekend binge features the body horror classic "Altered States", Russell's reimaginings of 19th century British literature in "Gothic" and "Salome's Last Dance", and Hugh Grant and Peter Capaldi battle with a snake vampiress in "The Lair of the White Worm". Weird things happen when our host gets ghosted. Aside from watching Ken Russell's "Altered States" to clear up his Netflix DVD queue before the service ends, CatBusRuss did not have much of a plan for what this week's episode would be about. Presuming that he would have a date on his day off, the best he thought he could do was watch "Lisztomania" to provide the audience with the entire range of craziness the director of "Tommy" had to offer. And then, no response from the lass he had been chatting up through her bout with Covid. Add into the equation that the phallic ode to an early 20th century German composer was not streaming anywhere for free. Russ's response to these difficulties, lets watch all of the '80s Russell that meet the criteria of the podcast.
