We're climbing back into the void for the third instalment of our Liminal Space season. After the chaotic vibes of last week, Sarah has led us into the hazy sun-drenched mystery of Peter Weir's 1975 masterpiece, Picnic at Hanging Rock. It's a film that defines Australian cinema and remains one of the most haunting pop-culture touchstones of the 1970s, even if Dan is convinced the titular landmark is a self-powered, solar-propelled magic rock with a hidden toaster outlet for your crumpets. We anchor ourselves into the cinema of Victorian repression, exploring how a group of schoolgirls from Appleyard College vanished on Valentine's Day in 1900. Is the rock simply a geological wonder, or is it an ancient, cosmic horror entity capable of folding time and space? We discuss the ethereal atmosphere created by Weir and the legendary “great wig drama” involving a formidable Rachel Roberts. From Jackie Weaver's flat cap adventure to the mystery of the 1900 era thin bananas, we're leaving no stone unturned. What to expect from this episode: Sarah explains why this is the quintessential entry for our liminal space movies season. Dan reveals his theory about the rock being a self-powered solar panel for picnickers. A look at the tyrannical performance of Rachel Roberts and her refusal to look at her co-stars. We discuss the ethereal cinematography and framing. The mystery of the thin bananas and a tangent about why fruit was better in the good old days. Why an American distributor was so angry about the ending, he threw coffee at his TV. A breakdown of some of the deleted scenes from the theatrical cut and the motive behind Peter Weir's directors cut. The secret clock-stopping powers of the book's eccentric author. How a teenager almost made the movie before Patricia Lovell stepped in. Dan tries to reconcile if this is a Lovecraftian horror or just a very long afternoon without enough snacks. This season has eight episodes, concluding July 6th Would you like to see the full lineup for season 15? The only place you can see it is on Patreon but you don't need to be a paying member.

This week, Shelby dresses up as a student at Appleyard College, and together with Zena, they take a deep dive into PICNIC AT HANGING ROCK! The 1975 Peter Weir film that has been unsettling audiences (and cobnfusing them beautifully) for fifty years! Is it horror? Is it a mystery? Is it a fever dream dressed up in Victorian lace? Yes. The answer is yes! Zena and Shelby dig into what makes this movie feel like a waking nightmare despite its dreamy, sun-drenched surface and the rock itself as something ancient and hungry!

Devin & James are back in the Den to start Spooky Season with a 50th anniversary celebration of the HORROR MOVIES OF 1975! We begin by rediscovering the nihilistic classic THE STEPFORD WIVES. Next, we debate if the masterpiece PICNIC AT HANGING ROCK and the underseen THE REINCARNATION OF PETER PROUD are even technically horror movies, or rather films so unique that they defy genre classification. Then we head to the drive-in for the cheestastic THE GIANT SPIDER INVASION. We next examine the taboos of David Cronenberg's disturbing, yet hilarious, SHIVERS. We travel to Spain to explore two bizarre horrors by filmmaker Amando de Ossorio, his final Blind Dead entry, NIGHT OF THE SEAGULLS and the totally unhinged Exorcist "homage" DEMON WITCH CHILD. We round things out with some Satanic Panic in two of the wildest Satanist cult films ever made, the RV road chase nightmare RACE WITH THE DEVIL, starring Peter Fonda and Warren Oates, and THE DEVIL'S RAIN, featuring unhinged performances by William Shatner, Tom Skerrit, John Travolta, and the GOAT, Ernest Borgnine! We also bring other 1975 tricks and treats like BUG, TRILOGY OF TERROR, THE AMUSEMENT PARK, SALO, KISS OF THE TARANTULA, and even DEAFULA! We've packed the candy sack as far as it'll stretch for this episode, so sit back with some witch's brew and enjoy the start of Halloween season with us!!

It's Valentine's Day in the state of Victoria, Australia in the year 1900. A group from a local girls' school goes on an excursion to the foot of an eerie, vast geological formation called Hanging Rock. Three girls and one schoolteacher climb up to explore it. All but one are never seen again. This summary constitutes the essential plot but only the first act of Peter Weir's 1975 film, based on the novel by Joan Lindsay. The remaining two acts concern the surviving characters' struggle to make sense of what happened on the rock. Yet, sense is not what the film intends to deliver. Rather, it's an anti-mystery that dismantles the nature of the mystery story itself—its love of solutions, its neat settling of the uncertainties that crime or menace introduce. What happens, this film asks, when an event resists the imposition of order, stands beyond the reach of logic or even language? Wes & Erin discuss “Picnic at Hanging Rock.”

Zero and The Wiz RECOMMEND Picnic at Hanging Rock Picnic at Hanging Rock, Peter Weir's film based on the novel by Joan Lindsay, is definitely a movie that is for a specific type of person in a specific type of mood. It's a quite, beautiful but at times discomforting film about tragedy and how the people in a protected bubble react when tragedy strikes. It has exceptional cinematography and the direction by Weir sets up the ethereal vibe of the film that leads to it's eerie and discomforting tone. It's a film that both Wiz and Zero can see it's quality in. But Zero is perfectly fine with his singular viewing, while Wiz is not sure exactly how much he likes the film which will require multiple viewings to really grasp. Still, Picnic at Hanging Rock is a good film that, if you are a fan of someone like Sofia Coppola, should actually give this film a strong shot.

Filmmaker, critic, video essayist and author Scout Tafoya joins the show to discuss the work of undersung journeyman Bruce Beresford and his brilliant 1991 film 'Black Robe', a story of faith, the frontier, and the church as a pernicious vestige of the European colonial project. Set amidst the 17th Century French conquests of North America in modern-day Quebec, the film follows the titular Black Robe, Father Laforgue, a Jesuit Missionary tasked with bringing Christianity to the indigenous populations of the region. As he ventures deep into Huron territory with his company of Algonquin guides, the limits of his faith and reason are tested, as it becomes clear that his beliefs and the promises they supposedly carry can find no purchase with a people who have no need for them. Greenlit in the wake of the success of 'Dances With Wolves' and cashing in on an exceptional amount of goodwill Beresford had accrued after directing the Academy Award-winning 'Driving Miss Daisy', the film is a brilliant study of self-deception, and the profoundly human impulses of one's perceptions of the divine. We discuss Beresford as filmmaker, his history as a contemporary of Australian greats Peter Weir and George Miller, and why his work deserves an immediate and vast reappraisal. Then, we discuss 'Black Robe', its exacting observations of faith and imperialism, and its unusually sensitive and well-researched portrayals of indigenous American tribes. Finally, we talk about other films in the canon of great portrayals of faith and the frontier, including Michael Mann's gorgeous 'The Last of the Mohicans' and Martin Scorsese's late-period masterpiece 'Silence'.

Content warning: This episode includes references to sexual violence as discussed in PICNIC AT HANGING ROCK. Public reaction to three missing schoolgirls and their teacher during a field trip to Hanging Rock – a prehistoric monolith – ranges from shock to guilt to pocket-watching. But how the citizens of Victoria react sometimes belies their true feelings: The girls who were spared their classmates' fate are giddy with drama; the police fear what their inability to solve the incident means for their authority; and headmistress Ms. Appleyard may harbor more jealousy than guilt over the girls' freak disappearance. This episode delves into the colonial, historical, sexual, and gender-centric throughlines of Peter Weir's PICNIC AT HANGING ROCK, focusing on Ms. Appleyard as a vector for the girls' frivolous nature, their austere environment, and the imposition of British rule over the First Nations of Australia.
