Episode 208: Alexander Birrell & Joshua Tonks and Suspiria (1977)

This week we chat with filmmakers Alex Birrell and returning guest Josh Tonks! This is a special episode because we had Josh on waaaay back on episode 33 (go listen if you haven't!) to talk about The Latent Image short film. And now we have him and writer/director Alex Birrell to chat about the feature film version! We chat about queer erotic thrillers, making a short film into a feature and their horror histories before discussing why the OG Suspiria terrified Alex growing up!Follow Alex and Josh.
