In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide. What sparked this “Black New Wave?” Who blazed this path for contemporaries like Ava DuVernay, Kasi Lemmons and Jordan Peele? And how did these films transform American culture as a whole?

It's the most wonderful time of the year - Halloween, obviously - and Pop Screen is convening Graham, Rob and Mick to discuss one of the all-time great horror movies featuring a pop star - David Cronenberg's Videodrome, featuring Blondie's Debbie Harry as a media psychotherapist who discovers a conspiracy to use video signals to suppress the new flesh. And what is the new flesh? We've all watched this film more than once and we're still not sure.
It might want for a coherent narrative, but it's damn good at basically everything else - not least the gore, which practically requires us to sing the praises of the film's genius make-up designer Rick Baker. Listen to the show to find out how Baker became perhaps the only person to gross out David Cronenberg, as well as what our favourite Cronenberg movies are. We also find time to discuss the movie's censorship history, praise Debbie Harry's performance, and roast her character's frankly sub-par therapy skills.
If you want to help us build a Brian O'Blivion-scale podcast library, you can donate to our Patreon, where you get a monthly bonus episode of Pop Screen, access to our other movie podcast Director's Lottery, Graham's twice-weekly Doctor Who reviews, and more.
