We welcome punk filmmaker Charles Pinion onto the show for the first part of a mini-series diving into the shot-on-video works of Charles.

Pinion made his mark on the shot-on-video scene of the 1980s with his debut feature Twisted Issues in 1988 - an experimental psychotronic story of a bullied skater who is killed and resurrected, attached to his skateboard(!!!), to enact bloody revenge on his perpetrators.

But it wouldn't be right to just dive into Twisted Issues. We wanna know his story! his formative years, his influences, how he came to make Twisted Issues, and the Cinema of Transgression scene he soon found himself a part of.
