When an alien ship comes to America, depositing a quarter of a million “newcomers” who try to live out the American dream. Among them is Detective Sam Francisco (Mandy Patinkin).

Mature March continues with a look at Young, Hot 'n Nasty Teenage Cruisers (1977). Directed by Tom Denucci and Johnny Legend the film is a hodgepodge of storylines and clips that plays like an X-rated American Graffiti as we follow a few characters through a long night of hi-jinks narrated by DJ Mambo Reavus (played by Legend himself).
Heather Drain and Anthony King join Mike to discuss the film while star Serena talks about the making of it.

We’re kicking off a month of discussing adult films with a look at Gerard Damiano's Memories within Miss Aggie. Released in 1974, the film tells the tale of our titular Miss Aggie (Deborah Ashira), a woman of indeterminate age who lives in a remote cottage with her companion, Richard (Patrick L. Farrelly). She struggles to recall the circumstances that brought her to this place and time which leads us to a series of flashbacks where we learn about Miss Aggie though she remembers herself as different women as she relives the past.
Ashley West and Samm Deighan join Mike to discuss this very unusual film and fantastic follow-up to The Devil in Miss Jones.

We’re wrapping up “Frenchuary” with a look at Luis Bunuel’s Belle de Jour. Based on the 1928 novel by Joseph Kessel, the film was released in 1967 and stars Catherine Deneuvre as our titular bell. That’s the name she’s given when the normally straight-laced Severine secretly lives out her submissive fantasies at a Paris brothel.... Or does she?
Samm Deighan joins Mike to discuss the dream-like film.

On this special episode, Mike talks with Manuel Arija de la Cuerda about his delightfully odd spiritual comedy, Ultrainocencia (AKA Ultrainnocence). It's a terrific, low budget movie about two men who use dance to communicate with a larger spiritual world.
