BLUE VELVET (1986) // Beware the Suburbs

Published on: 26th August, 2025

Closing out our month with a preview of the future: before entering Twin Peaks in December, the boy's discuss Blue Velvet directed by David Lynch. We're talking the evils lurking beneath suburbia, the legacy of Lynch & Kyle MacLachlan, and one of the most beautifully unhinged performances in cinema by Dennis Hopper. Yep, that's a human ear alright!

About the Podcast

Specter Cinema Club
An exploration of the sub-genres that make up our favorite horror movies!

Featuring creators from the spooky community, stoner filmmaker DeVaughn Taylor & film journalist Garrett McDowell discuss the recurring motifs of various sub-genres and what makes the best genre films work. New episodes every Tuesday!


NOTE: We recommend starting at Season 2 (Ep60) as that's when Garrett joined and began our current format. Season 1 was the experimental phase and before DeVaughn got better at editing haha

NOTE: The first 99 episodes, we were under the "Bloody Blunts" name. Season 3 is where we continue on as "Specter Cinema", though the show itself does not change.
