This week it's everyone for their self as the CTC crew dives into the Japanese sensation Battle Royale. Stuck on an island, given a survival pack, and fitted with exploding neck collars, a class of young students is given just three days to kill all of their fellow classmates.
In addition to Battle Royale we also discuss the Oscar nominations, recent Hollywood passings, and new releases in theaters and on home video.
After a week off due to sickness and schedule changes, the CTC crew is back with our discussion of Tom Ford's Nocturnal Animals. This film had huge Oscar buzz last year, but saw only one nomination when the awards were announced. We also offer our predictions for this year's Best Picture nominees.
Step into the isolation tank this week as we take a look back at Ken Russell's adaptation of Paddy Chayefsky's novel. In addition we talk about the new releases on home video and in theaters as well as what we watched last week.
