The Sword of Doom & The Wild Bunch
Episode 106
Monday, 15 June, 2026
With this episode's double feature, we decided to pair two revisionist genre masterworks from opposite sides of the globe: Kihachi Okamoto’s The Sword of Doom (1966) and Sam Peckinpah’s The Wild Bunch (1969). Though separated by culture, setting, and weaponry, both films offer blistering end-of-an-era commentaries that dismantle the myths surrounding their respective genres. Join us as we examine doomed antiheroes, collapsing moral codes, and the violent reckonings that emerge when old worlds refuse to quietly fade away. Before crossing paths with nihilistic ronin and aging outlaws, our Blue Plate Special returns with a fresh helping of cinematic and otherwise timely discussion. We share some thoughts on the ongoing World Cup, unpack Quentin Tarantino’s recent comments on the current state of Hollywood cinema, and offer reviews of several new releases, including Backrooms, I Love Boosters, and Disclosure Day.
