About this episode
The Cinephiles return with a vengeance and a new format. Taking you back to the days of VHS rentals at your local strip mall video store.
Remember all those steamy suspense flicks on the shelves? Not the big blockbusters which took up an entire wall. The stylish under-the-radar adult thrillers complete with passionate moral quagmires and sordid plot lines. These are the subject of the Cinephiles' discussion in this episode.
Here you'll find the world's first and foremost term and definition of this sultry genre big in the 80s and 90s. The standout films. The actors and actresses who made this genre sparkle. The adultery. The betrayal. The Madeline Stowe fantasies.
Join us as we dive haphazardly into this seductive world full of tanned-up Tom Berengers and malicious Michael Madsens. Enjoy!
