Thomas Millary
Psyop Cinema is a podcast about the film industry and its intimate connections to mass manipulation, conspiracy, and the occult. Hosts Thomas Millary and Brett Carollo explore film from a deep politics perspective, demonstrating how the artistry of cinema combines with psychological and technological knowledge to engineer culture in subtle (and sometimes not-so-subtle) ways— making each of us the subject of the greatest mind control experiment in history.

The Fury, Scanners, and Firestarter (on Jay's Analysis)
We joined our friend Jay Dyer on his show for a discussion about three films that deal with trauma-based mind control designed to cultivate psychical powers, particularly in children. Breaking down De Palma's The Fury, Cronenberg's Scanners, and Mark L. Lester's Firestarter, we talk about theta programming, the real history of government-sponsored psychical research, and the occult ideology that drives such experimentation. Films such as these program their audiences to venerate mutants and crave the catharsis of seeing their powers unleashed. https://jaysanalysis.com/https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com

First Reformed
As a sequel to our Taxi Driver episode, we analyze Paul Schrader's 2017 film First Reformed, an explicit work of religious engineering. We examine how the movie's sophisticated propaganda depicts the dying remnants of American Protestantism being absorbed into the globalist religion of the future, complete with worship of the earth mother goddess. We also talk about apocalypse programming, provide further background on Schrader, and discuss some recent disturbing comments that he's made.https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com

Taxi Driver
In a discussion that much of our longrunning Joker analysis has built to, we do a deep dive into Martin Scorsese's Taxi Driver (1976). We explain the foundational place of Scorsese's film in the feedback loop between media and spectacular crime that we call the Joker Cycle. Looking at other relevant films and filmmakers, we speculate on the possible role of Brian de Palma in the Taxi Driver psy-op, discuss Peter Bogdanovich's Targets (1968) as an early entry into the feedback loop, and explain the over-the-top revelation of the method in The Last Horror Film (1982). Breaking down Taxi Driver, we talk about the manufactured profile of the lone wolf spectacular criminal, Travis Bickle as proto-incel, and how the movie is a paradigmatic example of MK-culture reality/fiction breakdown.CORRECTION: The Terror was released in 1963 rather than 1968.https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com

The Bourne Identity, Supremacy, and Ultimatum (on Chant It Down)
Thomas joins Luemas on Chant It Down Radio, discussing the first three films in the Jason Bourne franchise. Starring the deeply sus Matt Damon, limited hangouts and revelation of the method abound in these movies. Discussing how Hollywood's political messaging has shifted over the last couple decades, Thomas and Luemas explain how the exceptionally spooked-up filmmakers behind this franchise blend sincere critique of CIA wrongdoing with disturbing fetishization of mind control.https://www.chantitdownradio.com/https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com
