Our Bloody Obsession – Details, episodes & analysis

Welcome to OUR BLOODY OBSESSION, a gorecast for the extreme created by two women whose bloody obsession is with all things nasty. Hosted by Zobo With A Shotgun (Zoë Rose Smith) and Venal Anatomica (Kelly Gredner).

We are back with a brand new season of the most disturbing podcast around, and this time we're going gooey with the grotesque subject of BODY HORROR. And there was only one film that seemed appropriately disgusting to kick us off -- Hideshi Hino's 1998 extreme film MERMAID IN A MANHOLE, from the infamous Guinea pig series. Kelly and Zoë dissect the gag-worthy puss scenes, the representation of beauty and decay, alongside the power this film holds.

For our final episode of the season we are dismembering one of the most disturbing found footage extreme movies! And what better way to do that then invite a very special guest--extreme cinema filmmaker Jonathan Doe! Join Kelly, Zoë and Jonathan as they look at Tamakichi Anaru's 1998 Japanese pornographic extreme film Tumbling Doll of Flesh (Niku Daruma).

They talk about why this film is one of the most notorious ever made, the influence it's had on filmmakers work and some of the nasty scenes included. Plus, a few interview questions with Jonathan on his films such as Barf Bunny, The Degenerates and more.

You can follow Jonathan Doe on X / Twitter and head to Putrid Productions to get your hands on some of his work!

New French Extremity is more than gore and violence; it is controversial, it is taboo and it is shocking. This episode looks at Catherine Breillat's FAT GIRL (2001) and Bruno Dumont's TWENTYNINE PALMS (2003). Host Zoë is joined by academic and author, Ali Taylor to discuss these boundary pushing films.
