Description

Today’s Unwatchables is all about the loquacious, shockingly brutal modern exploitation films of S. Craig Zahler. Special guest Matt Belenky helps us discuss Zahler’s artful approach to extreme violence, the controversy around his perceived politics, and whether his films are actually as regressive as their inspirations. On deck are 2015’s grisly horror Western BONE TOMAHAWK, and 2017’s face-smashing prison flick BRAWL IN CELL BLOCK 99.

On Unwatchables, two movie enthusiasts tackle the films that have been deemed “difficult” or, for one reason or another, just plain Unwatchable. From extreme horror to punishing art films to notorious box office flops, they’ll test their limits and try to pin down what separates the art from the trolling. (Or maybe just see if Marc can break Seth.) At the end of each episode, we answer the same question: If you could, would you Unwatch this? Unwatchables is hosted by Marc Dottavio and Seth Troyer, produced by Tony Scarpitti, featuring artwork by Micah Kraus. Find us at unwatchablespod.com.
