The CINEMA CENTRIC meet up for an episode celebrating the legendary documentarian Les Blank and his massive amount of releases on The Criterion Collection, joined by special guest Spooky Sarah Says! Founder of the food blog Geeks Who Eat, where film and flavor collide, Sarah helps us savor the rich storytelling of Blank’s work. From the garlic-infused passion of Garlic Is as Good as Ten Mothers to the soulful rhythms of Yum, Yum, Yum! A Taste of Cajun and Creole Cooking, we explore how Blank captured culture through food, music, and community.


We also dig into Sarah’s award-winning blog, her essay in Creepy B;tches: Essays on Horror from Women in Horror, and the wild chaos behind Burden of Dreams, where Blank chronicled the filming of Werner Herzog's infamous Fitzcarraldo. Join us as we celebrate a filmmaker who made every frame a feast!
