Episode 15: Head Trauma

WARNING: THIS EPISODE IS GROSS

A mind is a terrible thing to waste, but you'd never know that from watching the movies.

Episode 14: The Golden Age of Porn

In 1972 audiences around the country stood in long lines to get a look at "Deep Throat," the first mainstream pornographic film to be reviewed by Variety. Some people loved it, some hated it but everyone had an opinion. In the 4 years that followed a slew of big budget porn films would capitalize on this craze in what would eventually be called "Porno Chic." And then just a quickly as it started, it was over. Join us as we go...ahem...deep...into the history of The Golden Age of Porn.

Episode 13: Toxic Waste

During the 70s, 80s and 90s toxic waste seemed to be everywhere in America. This was no more evident than in the movies, where toxic waste became the magic elixir that could transform nerds into super heroes, homeless people into cannibals and even turtles into pizza loving ninjas. But then one day, it vanished. Slate and Tom dive head first into Toxic Waste on the Season 2 Premiere of Slums of Film History!

Episode 10: Profanity

Few things can get your point across quite like some well placed profanity. Hollywood knows this, which is why some of the best dialog in film are also riddled with swear words. But where did all of this start? When did cinema get such a filthy fucking mouth? On today's episode we'll explore the history of profanity in movies. We'll discuss everything from damn, to fuck, the the infamous C-word. So if you are sensitive to swearing, you may need to skip this one. If you are sitting near somebody who is sensitive to swearing, turn it up really loud.

Episode 9: Bad Babies

WARNING: THIS EPISODE IS GROSS.

The fear of childbirth is known as "Tokophobia" and as far as Hollywood is concerned, should be exploited at all costs. This episode is all about babies. But not those cute little babies in "Look Who's Talking" or "Baby Geniuses." We're talking about monster babies, zombie babies, mutilated babies and even Rosemary's Baby. So put your babies to sleep for this one and if you're pregnant, for God's sake please don't listen. It's our grossest, goriest, mother unapproved episode yet!

Episode 8: Hooker Vengeance

Hollywood loves prostitutes! They’ve been portrayed as victims, streetwise mages and even comic relief. And sometimes they’ve been the agents of violent justice. Tom makes the argument that hooker vengeance is a bona fide “micro genre,” but Slate isn’t so sure. Tune in and decide for yourself.
