Summary

Noirvember and Shocktober meet on this episode as we discuss Roman Polanski’s 1999 film The Ninth Gate. Based on the book The Club Dumas, the film tells the tale of Dean Corso (Johnny Depp), a book detective who gets put on a case by the diabolical Boris Balkan (Frank Langella). He’s to compare three volumes of the same book, a tome which holds the secret of summoning the dark lord himself.

Matthew Asprey Gear and AJ Black join Mike to discuss Polanski, Satan, and the millennium.
