Gary celebrated his birthday in August by programming the entire month of films for the podcast, so it only stands to reason that Justin would get to do the same for his birth month of November. All month long, we'll be showcasing films that he's personally chosen, all films he's wanted to talk about on the show for a long time, but has never had the chance...until now!

On this week's episode, we're moving forward a bit to 1969 to a groundbreaking film, one that helped to kickstart a new era in Hollywood and set a new bar for independent cinema.

This week, we're discussing EASY RIDER, directed by Dennis Hopper. We'll dive into its history and origin as a Roger Corman film and how it was transformed into the symbol of the counterculture that it would eventually become.

We're joined by special guest Brittany Brock on this episode!

Is EASY RIDER a movie that should go into the Psychotronic Canon? Is it one of the essential cult films?
