Episode description

Psyop Cinema ‘Mandy & Beyond the Black Rainbow’

Dec 16th 2023

We are joined by Sean McCann for a discussion of the films of Panos Cosmatos, analyzing Beyond the Black Rainbow's MKUltra New Age horror and Mandy's dark psychedelic Nic Cage rampage. Getting into his biting commentary on 1960s boomer spirituality and 1980s Reagan conservatism, we discern which countercultural psyops Cosmatos is rejecting and which ones he wholeheartedly embraces. Dark goddess worship, Programmed to Kill style mind control, and dissociative power trips for the powerless make their usual appearances. Finally, we make some comments about "The Viewing," Cosmatos' episode of Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities.
