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.

Ed Sheeran and Other Satanic Musicians (On William Ramsey Investigates)
William Ramsey invited us onto his show to discuss our research into the dark side of pop superstar Ed Sheeran.

The Dark Self (Joker 2)
Analyzing Joker gives us the chance to discuss the overall Psyop Cinema theory of culture, especially as related to the blurring of reality and fantasy and how that creates dark feedback loops between fiction and history. Thinking about Taxi Driver leads us to consider the importance of the Phoenix Program for understanding our ongoing national trauma. We also talk about the inherent dangers of both comedy and method acting and how all of this relates to demon summoning and human sacrifice.https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttps://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com

William Ramsey on Satanic Violence and The Parallax View
We are joined by William Ramsey for a dark but important conversation about violent Satanic crime and conspiracy. We talk about the evil significance of Aleister Crowley and the Crowleyan world we now live in. He explains the history and ideology of Satanic Nazi groups like the Order of Nine Angles and Atomwaffen. We go deep into the details of the West Memphis 3 case, arguing that Echols and the others are guilty of the truly demonic crime. Finally, we discuss the legendary paranoid 1970s conspiracy thriller The Parallax View. With other material on 9/11, the JFK assassination, Reagan's attempted assassination, Donald Cammell, Scientology, O9A symbolism in popular music, and more, this is one of the most chilling and info-dense episodes of Psyop Cinema yet.https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttps://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.comhttps://www.williamramseyinvestigates.com/https://twitter.com/WilliamRamseyIn

The Dark Self (Joker 1)
With this episode, we begin our Joker series, analyzing movies and themes related to the 2019 film. Directed by Todd Phillips and starring Joaquin Phoenix, Joker turns out to be a kind of master key for Psyop Cinema themes. We think about the history of the character, delve into Scorsese's The King of Comedy, and consider how the Joker's madness figures into the agenda of the global elite. Initially, this was simply going to be a bonus episode about the 2022 film The Batman, which we planned to analyze because of our previous coverage of Christopher Nolan and Zack Snyder's depictions of the character. That evolved into the idea of a standard episode covering both Joker and The Batman. But we quickly realized the figure of the Joker ties together a stunning number of Psyop Cinema research threads. Looking down a rabbit hole filled with madmen, assassins, mind control, sinister magic, and a dizzying feedback loop between art and history, we realized this would take several episodes (and the connections have continued to surface in our research since). So strap in, everybody. This journey gets weird. https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttps://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com

Controlled Opposition (Fincher 7)
Concluding our treatment of David Fincher's films, we discuss Mank. As we look back upon the arc of his serial killer heavy filmography, Fincher's latest gives us some big hints about his true motivations and perspective. We talk controlled opposition dynamics and Hollywood's insatiable need to self-mythologize, before giving our picks for the best and worst of Fincher's movies.https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttps://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com

The Visitor (Preview)
A preview of our bonus episode covering the strange 1979 B-movie The Visitor. Its convoluted gnostic sci-fi mythology says the quiet part aloud regarding the darkest aspects of human potential spirituality. It's all about occult initiation and mind control, along with the sick fixation on traumatizing children. We unpack all the odd details about The Visitor and discuss the elite endgame for society.

Rachel Wilson on How the Elites Poison Women and The Little Mermaid
Our interview of Rachel Wilson, author of Occult Feminism: The Secret History of Women's Liberation. We talk with Rachel about how ultra-wealthy elites have engineered contemporary culture, how some supposedly grassroots liberation movements have secretly been cultivated to serve anti-human agendas, and the socially subversive occult messaging of The Little Mermaid. This episode also marks the Psyop Cinema debut of Thomas' wife Mariana, who brings her expertise concerning women's health and fertility to the discussion of how the elites poison our bodies as well as our minds. https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttps://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.comhttps://twitter.com/Rach4Patriarchyhttps://www.patreon.com/BasedHomeschoolMom https://www.amazon.com/Occult-Feminism-Secret-History-Liberation/dp/B09NGXZKHB/ - Rachel's bookhttps://linktr.ee/RachelLWilson https://rwilson.substack.com/p/how-big-foundation-money-is-subverting - "How Big Foundation Money Is Subverting Traditional Christianity"https://rwilson.substack.com/p/mk-ultra-transgenderism-and-feminization - "MK Ultra, Transgenderism, and Feminization of Men"https://secretsun.blogspot.com/2018/01/mermaid-apocalypse-social-engineering.html https://secretsun.blogspot.com/2018/03/mermaid-apocalypse-meet-new-gods-part.html https://secretsun.blogspot.com/2018/06/meet-your-new-gods-3-mermaid-apocalypse.html

Manson Family Propaganda (Fincher 6)
We tease apart the limited hangout that is David Fincher's Mindhunter series. Fincher continues to distort the genuine nature of the serial killer phenomenon, glorifying the profiler and serial killer alike while giving borderline supernatural status to the latter. We identify the shocking length to which Mindhunter promotes Charles Manson's own account of his crimes. https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttps://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.comWorks Referenced -Tom O’Neill, Chaos: Charles Manson, the CIA, and the Secret History of the Sixties (2019)Jasun Horsley, 16 Maps of Hell: The Unraveling of Hollywood Superculture (2020)David McGowan, Programmed to Kill: The Politics of Serial Murder (2004)David McGowan, Weird Scenes Inside the Canyon: Laurel Canyon, Covert Ops, and the Dark Heart of the Hippie Dream (2014)

Weaponized Cynicism (Fincher 5)
We explain how House of Cards' depiction of politics and Gone Girl's depiction of marriage both fit into Fincher's dark messaging. After talking about the creepy significance of Kevin Spacey's role in House of Cards, we disagree about whether Gone Girl has any redemptive value.https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttps://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com
