Subtitle: The 2020s will make the 2010s look like the 1990s… or something

 

This instalment of the Kill It With Fire – Cult Movies and Cult-ure podcasts takes a look at Franco Amurri’s 1990s road movie/comedy Flashback, starring Dennis Hopper, Keifer Sutherland and Carol Kane.

 

Topics discussed in this episode include: the road movie and mismatched ‘buddy’ film; 1980s/1990s representations of 60s counterculture; Dennis Hopper’s career; Keifer Sutherland’s screen work; celebrity road safety campaigns; and we have a visit by a very convincing Jon Bon Jovi impersonator.
