The cinema dustbin often contains treasures if one is willing enough to go digging. This week, Jim and Teal did some digging. They found a couple of oddities from the 1960s to discuss, 1963's The Sadist and 1967's The Incident. While not Jim's chosen genre, he stuck with both films and discovered there are interesting things to find in such forgotten movie relics.

Jim and Teal kick off the show with Jim's negative review of the new Salem's Lot reboot playing on MAX, and then Jim provides a brief summary of Joker: Folie a Duex. Is Jim the only one on the planet who liked this film?

Twisted Nerve, Winter Kills, and September 30th, 1955; what do these movies all have in common? Well, they're all hard-to-see hidden gems that Jim and Teal have unearthed to watch, and make you aware of them.

It's definitely an odd bag this week. From conspiracy theory-laced capers, to messed-up psycho's, to dead legends, this episode has a little something for everyone. Enjoy!

Teal is back from his time off, and he's brought with him two hidden gems: Messiah of Evil and Targets. Messiah of Evil is a 1973 horror film (released in 1974) by co-director's Willard Huyck and Gloria Katz, the two writers behind American Graffiti. This low budget film features loads of creepy atmosphere, aided by some brilliant production design, courtesy of Jack Fisk. It's currently playing as part of the Criterion Channel's Synth Score series.

Second up is the debut film from director Peter Bogdanovich, Targets (1968). This film is part of the Criterion Collection, and while it isn't currently playing on their channel, it pops up on it from time-to-time. Jim and Teal caught up with this movie which is far more elevated than any movie Roger Corman produced has a right to be. Featuring an unnerving performance from Tim O'Kelly, and a great supporting role by horror legend Boris Karloff, Targets is an exercise in how to make a film great, even on a shoestring budget.

Along the way, Jim and Teal discuss the merits of Longlegs, and Jim rants about a recent crop of big-budget stinkers he's had the displeasure of watching.

Lots to enjoy this week, so dig in!

Jim and guest Bill play cat and mouse with the Criterion Channel's latest Neo Noir series. How do all the puzzle pieces fit? What are the connections between films? This assortment is an odd mix of neo noir films that, at times, have Jim struggling to find the connections between movies. Can Bill from Queens help Jim solve the mystery?

When you reach Schrader Canyon, you know you are in dangerous film territory. In the third and final installment of Jim and Bill's look at Paul Schrader's filmography, they climb the shadowy depths of Schrader Canyon to unearth Exorcist Dominion, and the notorious Lindsay Lohan film, The Canyons.

But just when you thought Jim and Bill were stuck in the Schrader Canyon forever, they find a way out with a late career resurgence including First Reformed, The Card Counter, and The Master Gardener.

With a little time left in the episode, Jim and Bill touch base on Criterion's latest Neo Noir offerings, and you won't want to miss the final four minutes of the episode, when in true Paul Schrader fashion, things go way off the rails.

It's an action packed episode, folks. Enjoy! If you dare.

Ah, the comfort of Schrader. Sooner or later, the more you watch, the more you fall under the spell of Paul Schrader, and the harder it will be for you to find a way out.

Jim and his guest, Bill from Queens, continue their expedition through the heart of Paul Schrader's filmography with looks at Mishima: a Life in Four Chapters, Light of Day, The Comfort of Strangers, and Light Sleeper. Plus, hear the tale of Jim and Bill's brief brush with Paul Schrader in person, back in their days at NYU.

Welcome to the Schraderverse: The Paul Schraderverse if you will. A man whose filmography is almost more a state of mind than an actual compendium of movies.

Paul Schrader is a tough director to pin down, so to tackle the screenwriter of Taxi Driver and Raging Bull, Jim tapped his old pal, and longtime listener of the show, Bill From Queens to sit in. Bill is a Schrader fanatic, much more so than Jim, who has many problems with Schrader's directorial efforts.

Will sparks fly? Well, let's not call Jim and Bill's episode contentious, but the pair is not afraid to mix it up.

In the first of at least two episodes on Paul Schrader (there is enough material for potentially 3 depending on how the editing goes) Jim and Bill duke it out over the merits of Schrader as they find themselves sucked into the Schraderverse.

And where's Teal at? Well, you'll just have to take a listen to find out. But warning in advance: you can't trust Jim whenever he tells you where Teal's hiding.

It was nearly thirty five years ago that Jim met Teal in a diner in Greenwich Village, NYC in September of 1989. On this episode of Stuff We've Seen, you'll learn how the two film lovers met, and how they began their movie-watching journey together. That covers the second half of the episode.

But first, Jim runs through several movies he's seen lately, including I Saw the TV Glow, The Bikeriders, Origin, and Hundreds of Beavers.

Lots of laughs in this episode, so strap on those earbuds and get listening!
