Oz and Curtis are strapping on the SQUID headsets, hoping they don't "blackjack" their own brains, and trying to survive the final 48 hours of 1999 to break down Kathryn Bigelow’s relentless, visionary Cyberpunk Noir: Strange Days!

Lenny Nero (Ralph Fiennes) is a sleazy but soulful street hustler dealing in "clips"—digital recordings of people's actual memories and physical sensations played back via SQUID technology. When he receives a clip containing a brutal murder involving corrupt cops and a conspiracy reaching to the top of the LAPD, Lenny has to team up with the only person he can trust, the formidable Mace (Angela Bassett), to survive the chaos of a city on the edge of a nervous breakdown.

We break down the film’s ahead-of-its-time genius: the jaw-dropping first-person POV cinematography, Angela Bassett's iconic and physically commanding performance, the film's eerie predictions about surveillance and virtual reality, and its heavy-hitting social commentary. Is Strange Days an underrated 90s Sci-Fi masterpiece and the definitive Cult Classic of the digital age, or just a movie that proves the only thing more dangerous than a memory is someone else's? Tune in for our full Strange Days 1995 movie review!

If you’re into analyzing tech-noir thrillers, appreciating films that pushed the boundaries of camera work, or listening to two dudes who would definitely accidentally record themselves tripping over a rug, this episode is for you.
