Welcome back friends to our first ever podcast crossover as we welcome back Mitch Bain from the excellent Strong Language & Violent Scenes podcast. If you missed it, part one is here.

Just a wee reminder to everyone, Strong Language & Violent Scenes is is about giving genre films a second chance which, as they put it, may or may not deserve it. They’ve produced well over 200 episodes on this point, and have managed to build a lovely community by regularly bringing guests on to talk about films and by doing live shows at Frightfest.

Since we do music and they do films, we felt an acceptable crossover was to combine do the mixtape format with a movie bent, and as such we asked Mitch to pick 8 of his favourite movie needle drops, as well as two songs he thinks would make perfect needle drops but haven’t (to our knowledge) yet been used in film. We then picked 3 songs of our own, as well as a wild card.

In part two we continue to go through each other’s lists, and cover some real good films (and film theory) as a results. Some cracking songs in here, ranging from films such as sweet indie drama It’s Kind of a Funny Story, to the brutal You’re Next, and even down to bloody Bill & Ted’s Bogus Adventure. We cover a wide range of genres on this ep and it’s a right good laugh into the bargain.

As is customary, we also do the nexus whereby we need to link David St. Hubbins from Spinal Tap with one of our wildcard artists. A fun, fun time indee. So please, enjoy part two of Mitch’s Movie Mixtape, and then go check out his podcast too!
