Скачать или смотреть IRON LUNG and the Death of the Cult Film

Iron Lung is already a cult film - it didn’t have to become one.

This episode looks at what happens when a film arrives with its audience already mobilised - when belief is guaranteed, loyalty is pre-paid, and cult cinema no longer has to survive failure.

Based on the indie horror game by David Szymanski and directed by Markiplier, Iron Lung is slow, repetitive, confining, and deliberately resistant to easy payoff. Under normal circumstances, it would almost certainly have become a cult film over time.

But it never has to take that risk.

Using Iron Lung as a case study, this video explores how cult cinema used to form, what’s changed in the creator economy, and why algorithmic loyalty might be reshaping not just how films are released, but how they’re made.

This isn’t so much a review.
It’s more a diagnosis.
