Cutting Class (1989) with William Hanson

Cutting Class (1989) with William Hanson

Author: Stevie Webb September 29, 2024 Duration: 59:45

What's up, Rotters!

For episode 3 of Vicious Varsity I'm joined by William Hanson - the UK's leading etiquette coach, best selling author and co-host of the enormously popular podcast "Help I Sexted My Boss"

We discuss the 1989 Brad Pitt lead slasher - Cutting Class. With its clumsy exposition and noble attemps at satire, this late 80s Trashterpiece had Brain Rot written all over it.

Toodles!

Hosted by Stevie Webb, Brain Rot-An 80s Horror Podcast is a celebration of cinematic schlock and video store nostalgia. This isn't about the pristine classics; it's a dedicated excavation of those wonderfully weird, low-budget horror flicks from the 1980s and 1990s that achieve a peculiar kind of perfection through their flaws. Stevie, self-styled as your VHS Veteran, serves as guide through this curated trash heap, bringing a distinct blend of film history and genuine affection to every review. The real charm of the podcast emerges from the guest dynamic, where Stevie is joined by a rotating cast of enthusiasts, from seasoned genre experts to curious newcomers, all united by a love for the bizarre. Together, they dissect these B-movie bangers, unpacking their practical effects, questionable plots, and enduring cultural footprints with equal parts humor and analysis. You'll hear detailed breakdowns of specific films, conversations about the era's filmmaking trends, and personal anecdotes tied to the experience of discovering these gems. It's a specific, communal deep-dive for anyone who finds joy in the sticky floors of a bygone video rental era and the singular magic of a movie that is, gloriously, so bad it's good. Tune in for a consistently entertaining mix of critical review and unapologematic fandom, all focused on the films that truly deserve a cult following.
