Today on the 5: One of our other commentary films for the week is another Mario Bava feature, 1965's Planet Of The Vampires. Like Black Sunday, it's another visually stunning film from an older style of cinema. This one isn't a gothic horror, instead we get a gorgeous movie that influencesd later classics like Alien.

Today on the 5: For one of our commentary films this week, we queued up a piece of classic gothic horror in 1960's Black Sunday. If you're a fan of older horror films in the Hammer vein, you'll probably have a great time with this beautifully filmed story of satanic vengeance.

This week we're talking about Roy Batty's Trench Coat, Volante Design, Pilot Pirx's Inquest, Dreaming The Reality, and Predator: Badlands. Show music by HeartBeatHero and OGRE. Support the show!

Today on the 5: For our final commentary film this week, we did something unusual and watched a new movie, 2025's Predator Badlands. I wasn't really that interested in this movie as it seemed like it was aiming for a different audience, and I would have been just fine passing it by. Then I saw how divisive a lot of reviews were, and at point I knew we had to watch it.
