Cultpix Radio Ep.79 - They tried to censor us? This. Is. Cultpix!
Greetings Cultpix fans! Django Nudo and the Smut Peddler are back with Episode 79 of Cultpix Radio, where we finally crawled back onto the airwaves after a two-month hiatus. Here's what went down during the extended radio silence:
The BIG Topics:
- Why we've been MIA: Turns out credit card companies aren't fans of our "abusive" content (their words, not ours). Stripe kicked us off their platform because apparently showing classic cinema with occasional nudity makes us as risky as selling firearms and dodgy supplements. Who knew?
- The Great Payment Saga: After trying 35+ different payment solutions and getting rejected for having films containing everything from "strangles" to "berserk" content (seriously, they flagged a family comedy), we're moving to direct debit payments. Take that, censorship!
- Growing Strong: Despite the payment drama, we've grown 80% in the first six months of this year and were going strongly until we were de-platformed. Not too shabby for an "abusive" platform!
Recent Theme Months and Weeks:
- Satanic September: Hell yeah!
- Arts-ploitation: When arthouse meets exploitation, featuring heavyweights like Buñuel, Coppola, and Lynch
- The Jaeckin/Kristel Connection: His name is NOT pronounced Just Jackin'
- Black November: A diverse collection of films including some fascinating South African B-scheme movies from the 80s
Coming Up:
- Estonian Fantasy Week: Including "Arabella the Pirate's Daughter" (think Pippi Longstocking meets pirates)
- Dirty Docu December: 31 days of "educational" documentaries from the 70s, including the extremely scientific "Sex and Astrology"
- Apps for big screen viewing are finally coming! (Touch wood)
Special shoutout to our favourite user comment: "Your website is dogshit." Thanks for the constructive feedback, matey! A more sincere thank you to our friends and collaborators Kalle and Tightsbury for all their recent video help.
And yes, for those wondering - our upcoming Blu-ray releases will have slip cases. Because nothing says "quality cinema" like a good slip case.
Stay abusive, stay exploitative, stay with Cultpix! 🎬
