The Sentinel (1977)

Get ready for a bunch of all-star cameos (Christopher Walken! Jeff Goldblum! Beverly D'Angelo! John Carradine! Ava Gardner!) and one truly bonkers climax because we're discussing Michael Winner's 1977 chiller The Sentinel!

Join us as we go all in on this messy little film, albeit one with a lot of great ideas. It's one of the rare times you'll hear us say that a movie is too short, because it seems like there are full scenes missing from this thing. Still, it's got some great effects (that nose slice!), courtesy of industry vet Dick Smith (The Exorcist).

Plus: defining "tasteful" masturbation, trying to figure out the logistics behind the Catholic church's grand master plan and the bizarre lack of consent it entails, and Trace not only learning what a sentinel is, but majorly flubbing Joe's game.
