The Kulturecast

Required Viewing: A 360° Film Study is a brand new sub-feed within The Kulturecast main feed where Dr. David D. Perlmutter and The Kulturecast's Doctor of Podcasting Chris Stachiw talk all about filmic topics through the lenses of a different film, tv series, or pop culture topic each Thursday.

On this Episode Zero: Syllabus, the good doctors sit down to discuss the thesis behind the show, what might cause something to meet the criteria of "required viewing", and what you might expect to hear in the coming episodes of "Required Viewing: A 360° Film Study".

Every film says more than whether it was good. On Required Viewing: A 360° Film Study, media scholar Dr. David D. Perlmutter and Chris Stachiw, the Kulturecast's Doctor of Podcasting, take one movie apart from every angle — theme, craft, and cultural fallout — and throw out the star-ratings entirely. New episodes every Thursday.

From Train to Busan to the far-flung future with cloning and fascism, Korean cinema spans the genre gamut. Mickey 17, the latest film from Parasite’s Bong Joon Ho, is the latter, offering a look into the future with Robert Pattinson playing two roles as Mickey 17 and Mickey 18. Along with a cavalcade of character actors, it attempts to take to task fascism, biotech abuse, and more, to unsuccessful effect.

Texas Tech’s Dr. David D. Perlmutter and K-drama anthropologist Miranda join the show to talk Korean cinema and so much more.

As the MCU barrels towards the inevitable ultimate crossover event that is Avengers: Doomsday, we must first check in on everyone's friendly neighborhood webhead. Once again starring Tom Holland, Spider-Man: Brand New Day is fourth film featuring the MCU's take on Spidey, with 100% less multiversal madness, thankfully. Along for the ride are Punisher, Black Widow, and maybe even an X-Man or two; The Projection Booth's Mike White crosses over to talk about them and more.

Battle Los Angeles is one of those forgotten sci-fi films that toed the line between war and alien invasion, doing something that few films since have: create a novel and compelling world for an alien invasion to occur. Dr. David D. Perlmutter joins Chris to talk war, aliens, and what happens when the two are combined.

Join Chris, Dr. David Perlmutter, and Mark Stachiw as they talk all about the film as well as the history surrounding it and much more.
