Hell Night
We start off the series with a film that is often touted as "one of the long forgotten slashers of the 80's". Is it? Let's dive deep and find out what happens when these kids camp in the woods in the midst of a bunch of backwater yokels.
Although he had a memorable turn as one of Hannibal Lector's victims, we thought he got much more screen-time in the twisty 2003 thriller, Identity. Having not seen this one for a while, we were happy to discover that this remains a fun, tight (not to mention star-studded) spectacle today. R.I.P Ray Liotta, and thanks for the years of pleasure you've brought us.
This part is much more action-packed than the first, though...well, it's still a TV movie. Enjoy!
Salem's Lot (Part 1)
After the controversy and success of The Last House on the Left, Wes Craven really wasn't interested in being pigeonholed as a horror director. However, with the funds running low and a couple of false starts, he caved and partnered with producer Peter Locke to create this masterpiece of cinema which, surprisingly, still holds up today in many ways.
Get ready for a ride that will keep you on the edge of your seat and guessing the entire time. We really enjoyed discussing Frailty. Have a listen!
Hatchet
How do you feel about ridiculous looking monster makeup? This week's film was a longstanding request, and one of Clive Barker's very first films. He was less than impressed. In fact, the results led him to decide that he needed much more creative control over his next movie (Hellraiser). Loads of fun to talk about!
The House of the Devil is a mixed bag, but it does perfectly mimic the style and genre.
In honor of the day we honor mothers everywhere, today we take a look at a Guillermo Del Toro-produced film about two girls who are torn between two mothers - and one is not exactly human.
A new take on the "terrorists on an airplane" genre brings in a horror twist that adds a lot of depth, intrigue, and loads of action to this excellent movie. We both loved it!
This marks the second pairing of the dynamic duo of Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing, which lasted through dozens of films and left an indelible mark on horror history. Was this your first introduction to Dracula?
We really love our tribute episodes. Not only do they allow us the chance to reflect on an actor or filmmaker's life and work, but also because they often send us to some more obscure stuff that we might never have chosen on our own. We might have had a little TOO much fun with this one, as it got Todd into some real-life trouble of his own. Apparently recording our podcast is more hazardous than you'd think. Listen in to find out why!
