Pod 366, Ep. 134: Kill the Wheel of Toronto
Description
On this episode, we dive into what looks weird at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), including a gnarly Harmony Korine-produced romp set in Medellin, a story about irradiated centaurs, the tale of a desperate mom trying to get her mutant son laid, and much more. We also spotlight the week's weirdest releases: the surreal Argentinian caper flick "Kill the Jockey" on VOD and Joe Badon's meta-riffic "The Wheel of Heaven" on Blu-ray.ERRATA & OMISSIONS*The two anime-influenced French movies Greg was trying to think of were "Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman" (2022) and "MFKZ" (2017).
*Joe Swanberg was the director of the original "Uncle Kent."*STILLZ is Columbian/American, and has made music videos for Bad Bunny.
*"Dead Lover" is Grace Glowicki's sophomore feature, not her debut.
*Walter Mosely is most famous for his mysteries, but wrote in all sorts of genres; it was completely inaccurate for Greg to say that "Man in My Basement" was his only non-mystery.
