I was on a quest to find dark occult noir and we found them. Jamie and I will cover 5 or so films from the 40s and 50s air ahead of their time in terms of cultural zeitgeist. White Heat, Fritz Lang's M, Black Cat, Sunset Blvd, Sea Wolf, and Psycho, though Psycho is 1960 neo-noir. These films are some of the first popular films to picture the pure chaotic evil of the joker archetype - evil for the sake of evil. We will focus on the psyche of the various villains in these films and their devilish anti-morality.
