Episode 2 of Ghoul Summer coming in HOT! On this episode your two favorite broken film nerds discuss the final film of Pier Paolo Pasolini’s career SALO, OR THE 120 DAYS OF SODOM

Besides a discussion of the film, fascism, and the changing standards of what constitutes “shocking”, Evan and Liam also get into less upsetting matters. Recent fun things, movies and anime, and just the best and worst aspects of life. Thanks for listening, tell a friend, and try not to give up this summer. Life is a nightmare, but maybe the fact that we are having it together makes it better? Maybe not. Join us next time for GUYANA: CRIME OF THE CENTURY

Ghoul Summer Episode 1: COME AND SEE

Friday, June 13, 2025 • Duration 53:57

Welcome to the first episode of GHOUL SUMMER, a limited series where your friends Liam O’Donnell and Evan Vellela spend each week discuss some of the darkest corners of cinema. On this excursion into our bummer summer we kick things off with COME AND SEE. Anrelevant film as our own nation flirts with fascism, COME AND SEE is a brilliant and sober look at war. Great way to start the week!

1 movie a week, every Monday, all summer long. The world is a nightmare, and so are these films.

Ghoul Summer Episode 8: THE WAR GAME (66)

Wednesday, July 30, 2025 • Duration

Will the survivors envy the dead? It is episode 8 of GHOUL SUMMER and on this truly stark episode we are delving into the font for so much dbeat imagery. The War Game from 1966. Despite how dark and bleak this documentary is, we both generally enjoyed it and spend some time thinking about it’s reception both then and now. Thanks for listening, tell a friend, have a great day despite, you know, all of this.

Ghoul Summer Episode 7: KAPO (60)

Wednesday, July 23, 2025 • Duration

This summer? It never ends. Welcome back to another riveting and ultimately futile episode of GHOUL SUMMER! On this excursion into the dark we discuss Kapo (60) directed but the director of The Battle of Algiers , Gillo Pontecorvo. I am like 90% cure I mispronounced Pontecorvo’s name every time I said it so please forgive my ignorance. Despite knowing full well what the format of our show is I continue to fail to write notes in advance thus my “what I am getting into” is, as usual, lackluster. Otherwise? Sick episode.

Ghoul Summer Episode 6: THE KILLING OF AMERICA

Thursday, July 17, 2025 • Duration 01:19:47

There is a sickness poisoning America, and that sickness is known as Ghoul Summer. Sorry for the delay on this one folks, schedule has been a bit chaotic this week. Still, I managed to get our deep musings on films featuring REAL DEATH to you as soon as I could.

Evan and I, predictably, do not see eye to eye on this one. We would love to know what you think, hit us up with your prudish or ghoulish takes on this film. Thanks for being here, talk soon.

Ghoul Summer Episode 5: SPECIAL BULLETIN (83)

Wednesday, July 9, 2025 • Duration

Our summer of pain continues as we discuss the faux news broadcast that is Special Bulletin.

Folks who have caught Evan’s guest spots on Cinepunx know his affinity and affection for Nuke movies, and Special Bulletin is no exception. While it does lack some of the spectacle and brutality of similar films, it is still surprisingly effective and depressingly relevant. We spend time discussing the dangers we still face from the insane weapons as well as things that maybe bring us more joy than despair, but don’t worry, there is still plenty of bummer to go around.

Ghoul Summer Episode 4: ANGST (83)

Wednesday, July 2, 2025 • Duration 01:04:18

GHOUL SUMMER LUMBERS ON, and this week Evan has picked a real doozy for us to discuss. You may not be familiar with 1983’s Angst but if you see it I bet it will stick with you. Of course we don’t dive immediately into the fun, and as part of our witty pre-discussion banner I pose the question “Do you prefer big or small coffee mugs?”” and I really and truly want to know.

There is something very grimy and desperate about this film, and I find it somehow fascinating and revolting at the same time. Join us for our discussion, let us know what you think, and invite a friend to our GHOUL SUMMER celebration!

Ghoul Summer Episode 3: Guyana-Crime of the Century

Wednesday, June 25, 2025 • Duration 57:05

Welcome to another HOLY and SANCTIFIED episode of Ghoul Summer, our summer fun excursion into the bleak dregs of cinema.

On this episode we take a look at possibly one of the quickest tabloid takes on a horrible tragedy ever put to film, Guyana: Cult of the Damned aka: Guyana: Crime of the Century.

This was new territory for me but Evan owns and kind of celebrates this film. Take a listen to see if I join up, and tell a friend about our scandalizing excursions into the cinemagraphic wastelands. On our next episode we will be discussing the very bleak German film Angst.

Ghoul Summer Episode 9: MONDO CANE-A DOG’S LIFE

Wednesday, August 6, 2025 • Duration 59:51

“And here we see two misplaced Philadelphia punk rockers of the 21st century, lost in the Pacific North West, participating in the ritualistic activity of voicing their inane opinions into the void known colloquially as ‘Podcasting'”
Hey welcome to a knew episode of Ghoul Summer, on this our 9th tedious episode we discuss the “classic” pseudo-documentary Mondo Cane!

Look, I usually like to keep our takes a bit of a surprise but really, you should know, we hated this movie. If you are tuning in looking forward to us waxing eloquent about the importance of this piece of trash, you have come to the wrong place. Sorry friends, it is what it is, but I wanted you to go in aware so you weren’t too surprised. Ok cool, thanks for listening.

Episode 10: BRIGADE OF DEATH (85) w/ Doug Tilley

Wednesday, August 13, 2025 • Duration 01:18:03

Ghoul summer, your very own brigade of bummer, returns with a brand new episode, this time with a guest! Doug Tilley joins us as our Canadian language consultant to discuss Brigade of Death, a French tour de force of offensive shit. We enjoyed this movie a lot but did feel kind of bad about that, maybe? or maybe not!

Thanks so much for listening and please tell a friend to check it out!
