Shownotes

It was released against the original Star Wars and it's failure signaled a changed in tastes for an era. Critics hated it because it was a remake. Audiences did not show up to a movie called Sorcerer that's not about magic but about trucks full of unstable dynamite.
William Friedkin's follow up to The Exorcist was highly anticipated, overbudget, had undercover Mexican federales almost arrest the crew. had a terrorist bombing a street over from the set.
I am joined by Audens to discuss one of the best initially overlooked movies of the 70s. If you are listening to this while driving, be sure your nitroglycerin is stable before making any sudden stops.
