| 7/31/25 | ![]() Platoon (Oliver Stone 3) | Continuing our Oliver Stone series, we turn to Platoon (1986), the film that established Stone as a superstar director and inaugurated the most celebrated phase of his career, revolving around the ghosts of the 1960s. Brett discusses the reception of Platoon in terms of the cultural politics of New Hollywood and of the Reagan era, and he considers the real reasons for the emergence of the Vietnam film at this time. He also takes a closer look at Hemdale, the sus production company behind this and Stone’s previous effort, and he offers some personal reflections on the film’s legacy. Thomas discusses the neo-shamanic, countercultural spirituality invested in the Willem Dafoe character and offers an analysis of the “two fathers” theme that would come to define Stone’s work.

| 7/24/25 | ![]() NASA and Hollywood, Part 2 (on William Ramsey Investigates) | In his latest appearance on William Ramsey Investigates, Brett discusses Part 2 of his Hollywood-NASA research report, which appeared this June in the second issue of Cultural Engineering Studies. After giving an overview of his groundbreaking research on the topic, Brett supports his conclusion that NASA’s partnership with the entertainment industry has always been a globalist cultural engineering operation. William and Brett also talk about Arthur C. Clarke’s central role in coordinating NASA support for the production of Kubrick’s 2001, and Brett reveals never-before-seen information from the Kubrick Archive in London, offering new insights into the Luciferian-transhumanist religiosity at the heart of the film. Finally, Brett touches on the disturbing trauma-based mind control subtexts of NASA-supported children’s films from the 1980s, including Flight of the Navigator, as well as NASA’s ongoing promotion of the moon hoax theory (in movies like the recent Fly Me to the Moon) as a form of psychological warfare.https://decoding-culture.com/magazine-home/https://www.williamramseyinvestigates.com/https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com | 1h 00m 17s | ||||||
| 7/22/25 | ![]() Drive, with Steven DeLay | Steven DeLay joins Thomas for a conversation about the 2011 film Drive, directed by Nicolas Winding Refn and starring Ryan Gosling. Analyzing the subversive and psyop-heavy intentions behind the movie, they conclude that Drive retains some profoundly redemptive qualities despite those designs. Topics of discussion include Refn's outspoken allegiance to the cult of the divine feminine, the cultural significance of the film's music, and Drive's place within the history of neo-noir.https://twitter.com/StevenDeLay4https://stevendelay.com/https://decoding-culture.com/cultural-engineering-studies-issue-2/https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com | 1h 47m 30s | ||||||
| 6/23/25 | ![]() The Writer With No Hands, with Matthew Alford (on William Ramsey Investigates) | Brett recently made an appearance on William Ramsey Investigates with top Hollywood-DC researcher and writer Matthew Alford to discuss the murder of deep state-connected Hollywood screenwriter Gary DeVore. Brett interviewed Alford about his 2016 book on the DeVore case—The Writer with No Hands—for the latest issue of Cultural Engineering Studies. The discussion on the show touches on Hollywood’s vast relationship to the federal government and the clandestine world more broadly, as well as the history and challenges of using FOIA (the Freedom of Information Act) to obtain documents from the government regarding its collaborations with the entertainment industry.Note: The livestream of this conversation experienced some audio issues, such issues have been edited out as much as possible https://drmattalford.substack.com/https://www.youtube.com/@DrMatthewAlfordhttps://www.amazon.com/Writer-No-Hands-Pocket-sized/dp/1530649870/https://www.williamramseyinvestigates.com/https://decoding-culture.com/cultural-engineering-studies-issue-2/https://decoding-culture.com/cultural-engineering-studies-issue-2/#interview-with-matthew-alfordhttps://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com | 1h 02m 23s | ||||||
| 6/21/25 | ![]() Fantasy Mind Control, with Monarch Survivor Carrie Olaje | A discussion with Carrie Olaje, a survivor of ritual abuse and trauma-based mind control. Carrie provides names, dates, and locations, as she describes how she was primed from a young age for Monarch slavery, with a former Sergeant Major of the US Army as her handler. She and Brett talk about the nature and history of the cryptocratic cult, as well as the question of possible intentional disinfo within the testimony of certain Monarch survivors. Fantasy themes and imagery featured heavily within the mind control abuse Carrie underwent, so we analyze four strange animated fantasy films that she reports were used as tools by programmers. Thomas talks to Carrie about Rankin and Bass Studio's animated films The Hobbit (1977) and Return of the King (1980), as well as Ralph Bakshi's infamous The Lord of the Rings (1978), before Brett gives a detailed analysis of the Monarch film The Last Unicorn (1982). Thomas also provides some thoughts on the spiritual pitfalls of the fantasy genre, the psy-op function of different kinds of fantasy films, and the surprising ideological agenda behind these animated movies.

| 5/28/25 | ![]() Enemy of the State, with Steven DeLay (Surveillance Cinema 1) | Brett, Thomas, and Steven have a comprehensive discussion of the 1998 Tony Scott film Enemy of the State, a movie with an underrated amount of conspiratorial significance. Scott is among the all-time best examples of intimate Hollywood/DC collaborations, and the film is the paradigmatic instance of predictive programming, for both 9/11 and the rise of the surveillance state. We have one of our most in-depth discussions of revelation of the method and cover how the movie functioned as a demoralization tool, both for the general public and potential whistleblowing insiders.

| 4/25/25 | ![]() Joker: Folie à Deux | Our long-awaited analysis of Joker: Folie à Deux, a film so sadistic that even mainstream critics noted its contempt for its audience. In one of the ultimate exercises in Hollywood hypocrisy, the movie seeks to reinforce the psy-op of the 2019 film while simultaneously morally condemning the audience for falling for that psy-op. We analyze the movie's demonological subtext and discuss how Folie à Deux is interestingly distinct from both standard Joker Cycle films and from overt Hollywood goddess worship.

| 4/11/25 | ![]() Angel Heart, with Sean McCann and Hans Utter | Brett and Thomas are joined by Sean McCann and Dr. Hans Utter for a deep dive into Angel Heart, a mystery horror movie released in 1987, directed by Alan Parker and starring Mickey Rourke and Robert De Niro. Set in New Orleans in 1955, the film is a Faustian tale about the disappearance of a singer named Johnny Favorite, giving us the chance to consider the occult origins of the modern music industry at length. A Satanic film about Satanic pacts, Angel Heart is filled with revelation of the method designed to disorient and destabilize its audience and contains abundant subtext about how the MK-entertainment industry creates IMSAs (Illuminati Mind Slave Artists). We also speak extensively about the nexus of voodoo, the occult, and modern styles of music.https://onegreatworknetwork.com/sean-mccannhttps://x.com/SeanWakeTheDead Eyes Wide Open Hans Utter Investigateshttps://x.com/EWOhansutter https://hansutter.com/ https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinema thomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.comhttps://decoding-culture.com/magazine-home/ | 3h 07m 16s | ||||||
| 3/31/25 | ![]() The Political Turn (Oliver Stone 2) | Returning from our unofficial hiatus, we continue our series on Oliver Stone. The early 1980s saw the release of a few films written by Stone that centered upon violent antiheroes. We talk about John Milius and his clash of visions with Stone over the approach to mysticism in 1982's Conan the Barbarian. Next, Scarface and The Year of the Dragon both unsuccessfully grasp toward Stone's political turn, while the much higher quality Salvador (1986) is the movie that truly brings Stone into his own as a filmmaker. Analyzing the insights and limitations of Salvador's critique of the CIA, we consider how its protagonist (journalist Richard Boyle, played by James Woods) reflects Stone's evolving approach to masculinity and to the legacy of the counterculture. https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com If you enjoy Psyop Cinema, check out Cultural Engineering Studies magazine - https://decoding-culture.com/product/cultural-engineering-studies-issue-1-print/ CORRECTION: Tony's boss in Scarface was played by Robert Loggia, rather than Frank Langella | 2h 24m 19s | ||||||
| 12/20/24 | ![]() Occult Origins (Oliver Stone 1) | The first episode in an extended series about Oliver Stone. Despite Stone being known for political films that deal with recent American history, his first two directorial efforts are surprisingly strange horror movies. Our discussion of Seizure and The Hand takes us directly into analysis of Hollywood occult ideology about the power of the imagination. We also note how his screenplay for The Midnight Express provides a glimpse into the kind of social critique that characterizes much of his later work. While Stone displays insights and a sincerity that separate him from overtly manipulative directors like Nolan and Fincher, we note that his filmography contains several unsettling ambiguities and that his early career suggests some interactions with intelligence services. https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com CORRECTION: Jasun has informed us that he has not recommended the film 8 Million Ways to Die and does not share Brett's enjoyment of it | 1h 41m 54s | ||||||
| 11/15/24 | ![]() The Password Is Fidelio: The Final Secrets of Stanley Kubrick | Sean McCann returns to Psyop Cinema to unveil the Fidelio Experiment—which, we are quite confident, is not only the state-of-the-art in occult Kubrick studies but the key to unlocking the final secrets of the cinematic master. Sean first takes us through his long investigative journey, including his previous milestone, “The Butterfly Net,” and explains how he finally cracked the Kubrick code. After applying the password to Eyes Wide Shut internally as well as to the bulk of Kubrick’s filmography, Sean and Brett then compare this grand unified theory against the information provided in Jasun Horsley’s The Kubrickon regarding Kubrick’s early relationships with the deep state and the core Thelemite circle in Hollywood. Finally, Brett highlights the almost completely ignored direct link between Kubrick and the Third Reich, revealing who “the Nazis” really were for Kubrick.https://onegreatworknetwork.com/sean-mccannhttps://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinema thomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com | 3h 52m 02s | ||||||
| 10/15/24 | ![]() A Hidden Life, with Steven DeLay (Malick 9) | The concluding episode of our series with Steven DeLay on the films of Terrence Malick. Thomas gives a speculative explanation for why Voyage of Time (2016) was so unwatchably bad. We have an extended discussion about the beautiful depiction of Christian martyrdom in Malick's 2019 film A Hidden Life, which portrays the life of Franz Jägerstätter, a conscientious objector under the Nazi regime. Brett (rejoining the Malick series for the first time since the initial three episodes) gives his opinion on some of the films that Thomas and Steven have analyzed in recent entries. Finally, we talk about our overall impression of Malick's work and career and give our picks for his best and worst films (in terms of both themes and craftsmanship).https://twitter.com/StevenDeLay4https://stevendelay.com/https://sunypress.edu/Books/L/Life-Above-the-Cloudshttps://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinema thomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com | 2h 12m 37s | ||||||
