Punishment Park (1971): The one where we learn to get scared again
The story so far: After spending this much time trapped in a small, underground VHS rental store, Greg’s worried that he can’t feel any more.
Welp. We recorded this a week ago and, yeah, the world’s only getting crazier.
This week, we discuss the 1971 pseudo-documentary Punishment Park, a film that anticipates American fascism by pretending that due process is abandoned so that cops can take their rage out on minorities and activists. Sounds totally implausible, right? Right?? But don’t worry! If that all sounds too heavy we also find a way to keep from maulding too much (it involves a plastic whoopee cushion. Don’t worry about it, it’ll all make sense, just listen). Is it a masterful film that deserves every bit of our attention? Yes! Is it an incredibly difficult watch that will haunt us for months? Also yes! Enjoy?
Leave us a 30 second voicemail and if we like it we’ll play it on the show: (949) 4-STABBY (949-478-2229)
