No guest this week as we found off the final film of our 1970s series. Time After Time is an adventure film which see HG Welles travel through time to 1970s San Francisco to stop Jack the Ripper. Directed by Nicholas Meyer and starring Malcolm McDowell, David Warner, and Mary Steenburgen, it's a surprisingly romantic adventure film which gained a large cult following after it's release.

EXCELLENT!
We're taking a little break in the 70s miniseries, again, to look at a new film for 2020. The Bill and Ted films were huge inferences on us growing up and a big part of our friendship. So we wanted to take the opportunity, with the third one coming out in UK cinemas this week, to talk about the most triumphant franchise and especially the most bodacious new film. Careful, there are spoilers, dude.

CW: Due to the nature of the content of this film we do talk about rape and violence against women.
Film maker James Raynor returns to help us discuss the 'video nasties' of the late 70s and early 80s, where because of legislation a whole raft of horror films were made illegal, resulting in fines and in some cases prison sentences for those who owned them and distributed them. The 1978 film, I Spit On Your Grave, by Meir Zarchi and starring Camille Keaton is one of the most controversial of these films and really does earn that reputation. We try our best to discuss the film, the history of the act and try to generally provide content for what was a pretty significant time in the UK film industry history and the history of censorship.

The film follows Sinbad and the vizier of Marabia, who are followed by the magician Koura, and seek the three golden tablets that can gain them access to the ancient temple of the Oracle of All Knowledge.
