Infinity Pool and It Is In Us All (Movie Squad Podcast #122)
This week, Movie Squad goes back to doing what it does best: exploring the extreme fringes of human experiences through hardcore cinema!
First up, Tristan Fidler takes a look at Infinity Pool, the new thriller from Brandon Cronenberg about a wealthy person who suffers an existential spiral after getting into a car accident.
Then, Simon Miraudo reviews It Is In Us All, from writer-director Antonia Campbell-Hughes, about a wealthy person who suffers an existential spiral after getting into a car accident.
How do the films differ? In more ways than guest Brekky host Damon Sutton can imagine, with Infinity Pool taking star Alexander Skarsgård on a violent sci-fi trot, and It Is In Us All sending star Cosmo Jarvis enduring a despairing tone poem of an experience.
Both films are now in Australian cinemas. Stay tuned for a podcast-exclusive chat about extreme cinema and how our hosts can stomach it. And don’t forget to tune into RTRFM 92.1 at 7:30am on Fridays for your regular dose of live Movie Squad!
