Based on the form of the words and the way the suffixes are often employed, I would suggest the following:
1. Talmudic - pertaining to the Talmud.
2. Talmudical - in the style of the Talmud but not necessarily directly from it.
3. Talmudistic - Belonging to the genre of the Talmud.
4. Talmudistical - Similar to Talmudistic but less definable as such.
There is a progression from 1 to 4 where the definite connection to the Talmud itself (rather than something similar to it) gets more and more hazy.
