About this episode
Lick the end of that paint brush. Tie that electrical cord a little tighter. Rub that ice cube counterclockwise over your left breast. We're entering the " Vortex of Voluptousness " for Episode 24 of The Sin Syndicate podcast—peering into New York City apartments filled with sex games, body painting, banana nibbling and general absurd degradation—with a look at two films from director Joel Landwehr (pseudonym "Leo J. Rhewdnal"), In Hot Blood (1968) and Fluctuations (1970). The former is the story of an ordinary girl with an extraordinary body seduced by a big city modeling job, slowly descending into bondage, methadrone and lesbianism. The latter is an avante-garde depiction of a smut novel leaping off the page with a karate kick and a golden shower. Join The Sin Syndicate and special guest Alex DiSanto on this grimy trip to the poetic gutters of NYC as we scratch the true crime surface of Landwehr’s sad end, and look at the unique circumstances that bred such strange, erotic filth. This is one rendezvous with death you won’t want to miss. Bring your own purse hatchet, but leave the methadrine at home.
