Lee and Leah check out Mario Bava's kinky gothic horror/murder mystery "The Whip and the Body" (1963). The hosts have fun this week talking about Daliah Lavi and Christopher Lee getting busy with leather whips and very few words. Some of the topics brought up include: how hard into S&M the film really goes; could the film have gone harder?; the murder mystery plot; is there actually anything supernatural going on?; and they fawn over Bava's beautiful direction, and the skilled craftmanship behind the film in general. The hosts also talk about what they've watched as of late.
