TMBDOS! Episode 314: "Targets" (1968).
from They Must Be Destroyed On Sight! Hosted by Lee Russell
Lee and Daniel continue the Corman tribute this week by talking about one of the more stand-out films to be produced under his watch, that being Peter Bogdanovich's "Targets" (1968). Boris Karloff, playing a thinly-veiled version of himself contends with new Hollywood and (eventually) a mass shooter, as Bogdanovich tries to find a way to fit the Corman-mandated amount of footage from "The Terror" into the film where he can. Lots of talk about mass shooters and serial killers at the time, and just how deftly this whole thing is put together by Bogdanovich, directing his first real film. The hosts also talk about what they've watched as of late. NOTE: there are two or three ever-so-brief moments where Daniel's mic breaks up for a few seconds, but it does not really effect the conversation as a whole, which is really good one. "Targets" IMDB Check out Daniel's episode of I Don't Speak German where he and his co-host Jack covered the Buffalo Shooter. Featured Music: "Green Rocky Road" by The Daily Flash & "Don't Take Your Guns to Town" by Johnny Cash.
