This week, join us as we discuss one of cult Spanish film-maker Jose Ramon Larraz's early works: 1971's Deviation. This follows the now-familiar story of a bickering couple who breaks down on a lonely road and takes shelter in a nearby mansion. If you're familiar with Spanish horror, you probably have some idea of where it goes from there. On this episode: cultural perceptions of romantic age gaps, another creepy taxidermist, another borderline incestuous sibling set, drug-fueled orgy "sessions", another spin on the highway diversion trope, a lascivious pharmacist, bewildering time gaps, a mumbling cat lady, mysterious occult practices and a wonderful psychedelic score by Stelvio Cipriani.
