Summary
In this episode we go beyond testing the limits of the human body to exploration of the mind. Liam gives us a rundown of the history and representation of mind control (01:17), then we discuss Stanley Kubrick’s 1971 dystopian satire A Clockwork Orange (14:45), followed by Brandon Cronenberg’s gruesome and disturbing tech thriller Possessor (1:00:03). As always, we end with some Honourable Mentions of our favourite mind control movies (1:35:24). Listen out also for a cameo appearance from our cat, Angelo!
