9. Braindead aka Dead Alive (1992) + Elephant (2003)

The ghouls are back! First, they get gooey with Peter Jackson's splattefest DEAD ALIVE (aka BRAINDEAD - 1992). Then, they untangle the deceptive simplicity of Gus Van Sant's controversial Palme d'Or winner ELEPHANT (2003), a teen drama that leads up to a school shooting.

 

WARNING: This episode contains descriptions of murder, mutilation, animal violence, attempted rape, child abuse, school shootings, bullying, bulimia, and more in the context of the films discussed. Listener discretion is advised.
