Episode 132: The Exorcist (1973)
Episode 176
Show notes
For this year's Halloween Special, your hosts Dominic Lawton & Ken B Wild are clutching their crucifixes, stocking up on holy water and preparing to redecorate their bedrooms with projectile vomit as they tackle William Friedkin's legendary 1973 horror masterpiece — THE EXORCIST!
The lads discuss spinning heads, Linda Blair's unforgettable performance as the possessed Regan MacNeil and Jason Miller's Father Karras having quite possibly the worst crisis of faith in cinematic history!
Along the way, there's inappropriate language from a 12-year-old, a real life murderer and an alarming amount of pea soup!
Meanwhile, Dom gives us enough behind-the-scenes horror stories to make you wonder whether the production itself was cursed, whilst Ken puts himself and Dom in the roles of the priests at the final exorcism!

Episode 120: Patrick Still Lives (1980)
Episode 163
Show notes
This week on Bad Movie Cult, the boys accidentally prove every critic right…
Hosts Dominic Lawton, Ken B Wild & Tom Ellis are getting rude, crude and lewd as they cover the 1980 classic - PATRICK STILL LIVES!
Strap in as the team descend into full‑tilt immaturity while tackling a film so packed with graphic nudity and over‑the‑top violence, you’d swear they wrote it themselves.
Dom spends most of the episode avoiding eye contact with Ken, who absolutely obliterates the show record for a certain four‑letter word. Tom makes the catastrophic error of watching the movie with his wife in the room, and speaking of Ken, he proudly walks us through what he claims is the greatest death scene in the history of cinema.
It’s chaotic, it's unnecessary, it's Italian — in other words, it’s peak Bad Movie Cult.
