On our latest edition of The Bible Study, The Reverend and his guests, Elwood Jones (Asian Cinema Film Club) and Lex Briscuso (Film Writer for IGN & Slash Film) take a deep dive into the 9th chapter from the digital copy of Kill Bill Vol.1. Along the way they discuss Tarantino's use of anime to cover mature themed scenes, why QT never used animation in any of his other films, if O-Ren was possibly The Bride's best friend in the D.I.V.A.S. and why anime worked so well in this film.Elwood Jones:Listen to the Asian Cinema Film Club: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/asian-cinema-film-club/id1282298451Listen to the Movies & Tea Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/movies-and-tea/id1365362345Listen to the Game Warp Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/game-warp/id1472613756Follow Elwood Jones on his Socials:Facebook: @richard.smethurst.33Instagram: @elwoodjones99Twitter: @Elwood_JonesLex Briscuso:Follow Lex on her Socials:Facebook: @Lex.BriscusoInstagram, Twitter (X) & Letterboxd: @NikonAmericaBecome a member of The Church of Tarantino:Follow us on our Socials:Facebook / Instagram / Threads / Blue Sky & Letterboxd: @ChurchOfQTPodEmail: TheChurchOfTarantino@gmail.comWe're also on the Rabbit Hole Podcast Network: https://rabbitholepodcasts.com/the-church-of-tarantino/

Spooky SZN continues, Slackers!This week we break down the “top 36” 80's horror flicks as ranked by Slashfilm. While I can't say I agree with the exact order of these movies - and admittedly some I've never seen - the top 10 is pretty solid.The 80's was peak horror in many ways, with not only slashers, but great tales of hauntings, monster movies, body horror, and worst of all - the evils of man.Some of the best directors of all time got their start in horror, so the list is full of absolute masters of the genre. Names like Cronenberg, Carpenter, Craven, and Cameron. Let's not forget Raimi, Romero, and Hooper.The 80's brought us Xenomorphs, Freddy, Jason, Pinhead & Chucky. But it was little Carol Anne that really scared us! What are your favorite horror films of the 80s?

Sometimes it only takes a simple shift in perspective to truly change the game...On this one we're playing a little bit of catch up but it's for a good one that is still doing great business heading into it's second weekend. It's time for 'In A Violent Nature'.When a locket is removed from a collapsed fire tower in the woods that entombs the rotting corpse of Johnny, a vengeful spirit spurred on by a horrific 60-year-old crime, his body is resurrected, and he becomes hellbent on retrieving it. The undead golem hones in on the group of vacationing teens responsible for the theft and proceeds to methodically slaughter them one by one in his mission to get it back – along with anyone in his way.Through the simple idea of shifting the perspective of the narrative to the killer we get to see a genre in an entirely new light and it's fascinating.We had the pleasure of sitting down with "Johnny" to talk about the film but thankfully he's played by friend of the show the one and only Ry Barrett.We talked with Ry about stepping into the mind of a killer, the nature of how they shot the film in the great outdoors, some of the wild kills and his journey as an actor up to this moment.

Kentaro is a multimedia artist, creative director, martial artist, and entrepreneur from Los Angeles, CA. After studying Neuroscience at UCSD then entering into the film program at UCLA, Kentaro started his career creating content for global brands such as McDonald's, Lego, Benjamin Moore, and many others before eventually transitioning to be a children's book illustrator and brand director. He created the visual direction for the Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf's children's line with The Magic Tea House, and his children's illustrations have traveled across museums throughout the United States. He has been featured on NBC for his large-scale guerilla pieces, the New York Times for his mural work, and in TIME magazine, Slash Film, Forbes, Huffington Post, Men's Health, GameRant, Vice, and NPR for his films. As a martial artist, Kentaro competed internationally, fighting Muay Thai at Pattaya Stadium in Thailand and training with Judo Olympians at the Kodokan and the Japanese royal guards within the Imperial Palace. He currently remains one of the cultural ambassadors for the upcoming Los Angeles Olympics. In 2015, he co-founded Neuro - a functional confectionary brand revolutionizing the consumable supplement space.

KIRA'S SOLEMN VOW leads to a shocking truth: vengeance is not moral. In the course of investigating a single Cardassian she comes to the realization that collective punishment of all Cardassians isn't justice, even if this particular Cardassian wants to face judgment for his people's crimes. It's one of the most intense episodes of Star Trek ever made and to help Bryan discuss this Deep Space Nine achievement is writer Andrew Bloom (Slashfilm, Consequence, The Spool). He's written a piece about "Duet" on his Substack In Full Bloom -- check it out! If you're liking the show, consider rating us on your podcast platform of choice.
