Mike joins Caliber 9 From Outer Space for their landmark 100th episode, celebrating the milestone with an ambitious and eclectic triple feature: Brian De Palma’s Sisters (1972), John Sayles’s The Brother from Another Planet (1984), and John Hough’s Hammer favorite Twins of Evil (1971).
Along with hosts Rob Spencer and Joe Odber (and fellow guest Sammy from the GGTMC), Mike digs into the films’ shared fascinations with identity, social fractures, and psychological duality -- whether explored through De Palma’s split-screen paranoia, Sayles’s still-timely critique of American intolerance, or Hammer’s lurid Gothic stylings.The group avoids major spoilers for The Brother from Another Planet and only lightly touches the ending of Twins of Evil. However, Sisters receives a full spoiler discussion, with a clear cue for listeners who want to skip ahead: you can safely rejoin at 1:35:59.
It’s the show’s longest episode to date and a lively deep dive befitting the occasion. Congratulations to Caliber 9 From Outer Space on reaching 100 episodes—and here’s to many more.
