This week, we dive into the 1987 gothic horror and film-noir classic, "Angel Heart," exploring its haunting atmosphere and complex narrative. As we discuss the film's unique blend of noir and horror elements, we reflect on the performances of Mickey Rourke and Robert De Niro, highlighting how their characters drive the story's tension. Our conversation also touches on the film's heavy themes and the controversial aspects of its storytelling, particularly the exposition-heavy ending that left us with mixed feelings. Additionally, we make an exciting announcement about our upcoming 100th episode spectacular, which will feature a live audience, a film screening, and a podcast recording. Join us as we navigate the shadows of "Angel Heart" and share our thoughts on this intriguing entry in our Gothic Horror retrospective.
Our 100th Episode Spectacular, is a LIVE screening and LIVE podcast recording with a studio audience on January 10th, 2025.
