Episode 18

Twisted Pair (2018)

Published on: 20th May, 2022

A story about artificial intelligence, programmable DNA, awful facial hair, and a lot of voiceover.

Listen in as me and returning guest and resident expert in Breenism, Richard, complete our season long look into the collective works of Neil Breen by breaking down his fifth work.

Written and directed by wunderkind auteur Neil Breen (Double Down, I Am Here....Now, Fateful Findings, Pass Thru), it is the fifth and (as of this recording) most recent film by Breen. Indie Film Café called the film "a masterpiece of the WTF," and One Star Classics said they "don’t even know where to start describing the actual movie." Neil, ya might have outdone yourself with this one.

It tells the story of a set of twins, both played by Breen, who were taken by an entity and gifted "powers." One uses them for good to complete "missions" and the other does not. There are strained relationships, secret missions for a secret agency, a murder basement, and a whole lot more weird shit.

The film is currently available on Prime Video and DVD.

About the Podcast

Subversive Cinema
The show about the weird, whacky, and downright wrong entries in cinema history.
There are a lot of films out there, so it's only natural that a decent amount of strange content exists. These are the films we examine.

Each week, I sit down with a guest and we take a look a one of these weird, whacky, or downright wrong cinematic entries. Each of them has something about it that makes it special — I call it the "Subversive Sauce" — and that is recipe we try to break down.

Is it scientific? Absolutely not. Will you learn things you didn't know? Maybe. Might you hear about films worth checking out? Most definitely.

Tune in and see what the subversion is all about!

Art started in the podcasting ecosphere back in 2007 with the outrageous, yet short lived, scripted variety show "WBKR: Buckwilde Radio," which claimed listeners from over 20 different countries. After hanging up his headphones and heading west to move to Los Angeles, he kept podcasting in his heart but only made appearances rather than producing or hosting. It only took a global pandemic, boredom, and the pleading from his buddy, Joe, to get back into the mic booth.
