Foreign Film Month goes out with a bang—literally—as we dive into Seijun Suzuki’s chaotic cult classic Branded to Kill. This episode, we’re joined by special guest Chuck Horack—film critic, cinephile, and stylish noir aficionado—to break down the film’s surreal narrative, killer aesthetics, and why it was way too weird for the studio execs of the '60s.

We talk rice fetishes, butterfly assassins, and how this ultra-cool fever dream of a film became a cinematic cult legend. Buckle up—this one’s a trip.
