A Blind Bargain

Gonna watch this and Back to the Future for a guy makes out with his mum + Crispin Glover double feature

It’s weird, and I would not expect anything less from Paul Bunnell. I loved his Ghastly Loves of Johnny X, which was a fun homage to 50s scifi AND rock and roll musicals. Blind Bargain is an interesting watch. I think it will need to simmer and stew in my head for a bit,…

Weird & campy with an incredible attention to 1970s detail. Part of 2025’s HP Lovecraft streaming film festival.

Starts out fairly serious and gradually gets campier and campier. It’s not as interesting in the beginning but stick with it if you enjoy off-the-wall scifi camp.

Ed Grady

The first 2/3rds is very compelling. However it starts to lose cohesion in the final act. The true star of the film is the amazing 1970s set design and attention to detail.

Not formulaic but still very predictable. Nothing was a surprise except the great soundtrack.

Included Q&A with director Paul Bunnell, EP John Falotico, and actor/artist Claudia MacLeod.
