Welcome everyone to a very special episode. This week marks the 50th episode of the podcast if you can believe it! We wanted to save something special for you all on this monumental achievement for us, and trust us we didn’t let you down. This week, keep the dramamine handy and if you have epilepsy or are triggered by any sort of sexual violence whatsoever, seriously don’t watch this film. We head into the bowels of hell as depicted by a gay night club in Gaspar Noe’s 2002 Rape Revenge-told-in-reverse film, “Irreversible”. Whether it’s the nauseating soundtrack, the frenetic camera work, or the infamous 9-minute rape scene, this movie is truly an assault in every way shape and form. Join us as we dive deep into the psychological toll a movie like this has on a viewer and the impact it has by almost leaving it’s audience not as mere spectators to violence, but complicit in it as well. Also discussed on the episode are the rampant bouts of homophobia from the films lead character, and just in the film itself, the beauty that is Monica Belluci, and whose films are you recommending to your parents next, Gaspar Noe or Lars Von Trier? This and more on the 50th episode of “I Didn’t Need to See That!”

This week, we honestly needed a kind of buffer film between heavy hitters, so we decided to sojourn back to the serene 1970’s French Canadian countryside as we watch a woman infect a whole town with her armpit stinger! We’re covering one of David Cronenberg’s early films with the 1977 body horror feature “Rabid”. Join us as we talk about the early days of Canadian Treasure Cronenberg himself and feel a fond sense of nostalgia for a decade neither of us were alive to see. Plus, the disgusting eating habits of teens, Can Adult Film Actresses transition to mainstream film roles these days? Spoiler Warning for later episodes of White Lotus! And we attempt to settle the long standing debate of Is “Twink” A slur? Listen now before we have to apologize on the next episode of “I Didn’t Need to See That!”

On this week’s episode, spring isn’t the only thing that’s awakening. We’re celebrating Pete’s Birthday! And for the birthday boys pick, we’ve dived into the world of flesh consumed by metal with 1989’s “Tetsuo The Iron Man”. Join us as we step back into the wondrous world of independent filmmaking and marvel at just how visually stunning this movie looks, and how miserable of a shoot it was. This is a film who’s influences are very present in it’s grungy, phallic, cyberpunk aesthetic, yet maintains an identity and vibe all it’s own. Also discussed are the films potential influence on the art of Trent Reznor and Nine Inch Nails, how much is enough to ask your friend to come help out on your first film shoot, and how in the end, this is really story of queer love overcoming all obstacles. So kick your feet up, relax and let the the sheer sexual thrill take hold of you on this week’s episode of “I Didn’t Need To See That!”
