Haunted by the legacy of his superstar father. Haunted by an old family curse. Brandon Lee tried to outrun his past, but it came after him all the same. It was said that his father, Bruce Lee, was taken by that family curse at just 32 years old. And that it then followed Brandon, when he was 28, to the set of The Crow, a cross between a superhero blockbuster and a brooding art film that was all goth. The shoot was plagued by injury, electrocution, storms, fires, and car crashes – and culminated in tragedy when a prop gun fired a real bullet.

The Libertines were at the vanguard of the early 2000s garage rock revival. Fronted by friends Pete Doherty and Carl Barat, the band was seen by the UK press as the next in a long line of groups animated by combustible and competitive partnerships, such as the Beatles, Oasis, and the Kinks. But despite their success, the Libertines would be plagued by internal conflicts, erratic behavior, and copious drug use. Eventually, Pete would be on the outs, drifting through London's drug scene before finding himself in prison. This episode was originally published on September 26, 2024.

Alfred Hitchcock grew up on murder. He was the OG crime junkie; obsessed with true stories of stranglers, bodysnatchers, necrophiliacs, and serial killers. He was also afraid – not so much with these ghoulish figures, but of authority, the dark, crowds, and of being alone. He channeled his obsessions and his fears into some of the greatest movies of all time. And he abused his power as a controlling auteur by having his way with an actress who he assumed to be powerless. That actress, Tippi Hedren, demonstrated remarkable strength and survived both personally and professionally to tell her story.This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners, including graphic depictions of violence, sexual assault, and stalking.

Dennis Hopper revolutionized American cinema by bringing the counterculture to the mainstream with his 1969 film Easy Rider. But he also lived his life in tandem with his art, on the fringes of society and sanity. His stubborn attitude and crazy ideas quickly transformed him from a hippie prophet into a longhaired loser. Hopper's journey from success to failure and back again took him through jungles, deserts, and mountains, and involved varying degrees of drugs, guns, hallucinations, and ex-wives – all part of a lifelong search to save his career, and his life.This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners, including domestic violence.

Director John Huston lived the adventurous life that was frequently depicted in his movies. As a young man, he was made an honorary lieutenant in the Mexican army. He was nearly shot during a poker game and challenged to a duel in the middle of the street. His thrill-seeking antics soon turned fatal, when he accidentally struck and killed a woman with his car while driving down Sunset Boulevard. He ran off to London to lay low, but soon found himself with no job, no money, no prospects–and no choice but to live on the streets and beg for change.

Before Patty Hearst appeared as an actress in John Waters' movies, she captivated America on the silver screen as a hostage terrorized by the Symbionese Liberation Army. When the newspaper heiress was kidnapped by the radical organization in 1974, the country sympathized with her plight. But after just a few months, the SLA's guns weren't pointing at Patty anymore. Suddenly, Patty was firing her own weapons during fistfights and bank robberies as a member of the same terrorist group that once kept her locked in a closet. In court, Patty claimed she was brainwashed and that she played along for her own safety. It's true that Patty Hearst gave the performance of a lifetime — but we still don't know which part of her life was the performance.

Glenn Danzig named his punk band after one of the most cursed Hollywood films of all time. The Misfits was where actor Montgomery Clift, permanently disfigured from a car accident, tried in vain to restart his stalled career. The director, John Huston, lost the film's entire production budget at a craps table. The lead actor, Clark Gable, suffered a heart attack the day after shooting ended and died ten days later. But was there any truth to the rumor that Gable was driven to an early grave not because of a grueling shoot or poor health, but by his demanding co-star, Marilyn Monroe?

In the summer of 1985, Sean Penn's marriage to preeminent material girl Madonna was an epochal moment for ‘80s-era Hollywood. The bad boy from Bad Boys and the boy-toy pop superstar blissfully brought together the worlds of movies and music on a Malibu bluff overlooking the Pacific. But their subsequent attempt to make a movie together was anything but blissful. A wild film shoot in China would lead to even wilder things, like the time Sean dangled a photographer upside-down from a ninth-story balcony. Or the time he escaped a prison in Macau and had to have a pardon from the government negotiated by a former member of the Beatles. Or the time he spent in an American prison, where he found himself passing notes with a fellow inmate down the hall…one who happened to be one of the most notorious serial killers in history.

Did you hear that? Are we being watched? Join Zeth as he gets out his flashlight and explores the dark corners of film history, specifically the paranoia of the 1970s and how real life was reflected in the films America was watching.

Jane Fonda was so beloved that she was once named the fourth most admired woman in the world. She was also so hated that her face was used for target practice in urinals at military bases across the country. This all stemmed from a ten-day tour she took of North Vietnam in 1972: a trip that would forever cement her as either a patriot or a traitor in the eyes of a divided nation and would put her in the crosshairs of the President of the United States.

The death of a neighborhood friend, an attempted robbery that almost went horribly wrong, good vs. evil, and the road not taken: this is the Al Pacino origin story. It all culminates in the role of a lifetime. Not Michael Corleone. Not a role on stage or screen. The most important role of Al Pacino's young life played out in front of a couple of detectives and a district attorney.

Heath Ledger's preparation for and disappearance into his movie roles is legendary, and it's what helped him play repressed cowboys, junkies, and maniacal clowns equally well. His research led him to junkies who taught him how to properly shoot up using a stolen prosthetic arm and fake blood, and to a personal diary full of cut-and-paste madness. The paparazzi, however, mocked Heath's method, and took their public quarrel with him to duplicitous lengths.

Robert Blake was a former child actor and tough-talking TV cop. He was also a tough customer. He talked like a mobster, lived like a cowboy, and was intimately familiar with the rougher side of life. That rough side of life caught up with him in 2001, when he was charged with murder when his wife, Bonny Lee Bakley, was found shot dead in the front seat of Blake's Dodge Stealth. Depending on who you talk to, Robert Blake was either rightfully acquitted…or managed to escape justice. This episode was originally published on December 20, 2023.
