Buckle up! The Soho Cinema Club crew—Miles Flanagan, Sean Sardi and Jared Carlson—are risking their sanity to sit through GYMKATA, a strong contender for the most disastrously awful movie in human history. Can the explosive force of karate actually combine with gymnastics to create the ultimate martial art? Our brave, film-junkie heroes are about to find out, judging this glorious cinematic train-...

Join Miles Flanagan, Jared Carlson and Sean Sardi as they ask the simple question... “Is this the sleaziest double bill ever?" These potentially classic 1972 movies - DEATH LINE and NIGHT HAIR CHILD - are both about families, but one’s concerned with under-age incest and the other cannibalism.

Sit back and enjoy a ribald and entertaining discussion...

Is this truly France's epic horror failure? A film supposedly designed to compete with the likes of HALLOWEEN and FRIDAY 13th, yet so bizarre and inept that that idea beggars belief! Let's see what the SOHO team think and if they feel it deserves the title 'one of the worst movies ever made.'  

Taking their cue from actual 1970s cinema double-bills, the SOHO team look at two of the U.K's TIGON tales of terror, 1971's BLOOD ON SATAN'S CLAW (a.k.a SATAN'S SKIN) and BEAST IN THE CELLAR (a.k.a. THE CELLAR). Yes, this was a real double bill, and we have the Quad poster in our cinema to prove it. Listen now and find out what gets Jared so excited about SATAN'S SKIN, what Sean found so creepy,...

Join Soho Cinema Club hosts Miles Flanagan and Jared Carlson as they break down the 1977 monster movie Mighty Peking Man.

The team explores the bizarre history behind its...
