Episode 058: Conquest (1983)

Genre Exposure: A Film Podcast

In this episode, we wrap up our series on somewhat medieval themed Fantasy flicks. There's no other way to go out with a bang than a short trip into the surreal world of Lucio Fulci. So join us as we visit a land beyond time and delve into his one forray into the fantasy genre with 1983's Conquest. Jason tries to orient the film in the pantheon of Fulci's movies and its place among his masterpieces and decline. Dustin begins and ends his comedy career with one poorly timed joke on the film's behalf. And so much more!
