phantom of the paradise

This week on Remainders, we watch the 1974 horror-comedy rock opera Phantom of the Paradise. A cult classic by Brian De Palma, Phantom has gained notoriety in the decades since its release thanks in part to De Palma’s legendary filmography, but also because of a small but rabid fan base that hails to this insane mashup of horror and glam rock.

Other topics include Killers of the Flower Moon, Chicago legends Siskel & Ebert and Tom Skilling, January movie marathons, Godzilla Minus One and the Oscars, new Criterion pickups and the lost art of movie posters.

In the sixteenth episode of Season 1, Cult Flicks & Trash Picks, Kyle is joined by stunt actor Danny Hernandez and cinematographer Ryan Alva to discuss Brian DePalma's unbridled gothic musical fantasia Phantom of the Paradise.

What's the most '70s movie of all time? The arguable choice is Brian dePalma's 1974 horror musical, "Phantom of the Paradise." With a rocky production history that included being sued by Led Zeppelin, the under-appreciated cult treasure can only be compared to "Rocky Horror," which was released the following year.
