Dimitri and Khalid discuss the filmography of 70s New Hollywood auteur William Friedkin, various layers of subliminality in 1973’s “The Exorcist”, allusions to Polanski, the vague lurking menace of Nazis in his films, the bit player who went on to become a serial killer and inspire 1980’s “Cruising”, Friedkin’s curious adaptation of the Jim Webb-penned predictive programming fantasia “Rules of Engagement”, and the limits of the adolescent Boomer imaginary.
