Twin Peaks Cinema
27 episodes - English - Latest episode: 5 months ago - ★★★★★ - 2 ratingsMany films influenced, were influenced by, or have entirely coincidental but fascinating links to the David Lynch/Mark Frost TV series Twin Peaks (1990 - 91), its prequel spin-off Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me, and its follow-up series Twin Peaks: The Return (2017). This podcast dives into various films spanning the globe and cinema history, discussing them both in their own right and through the sometimes explicit, sometimes more subtle and even dreamlike connections to Twin Peaks - and occasionally, we explore films created by those directly involved with Twin Peaks itself. This podcast is intended for listeners who have watched all seasons and the film, as there will be spoilers.
