Ti West’s The House of The Devil might be the most retro 80s film to do retro 80s stuff. But is it good? And more effectively, is it effectively using nostalgia? Join us as we discuss pacing in films and how nostalgia is used in (and on!) pop culture.

Lucas and Joe descend into a layer of Hell with Austrian True Crime proto-slasher Angst. Lucas has questions and Joe has, well, thoughts on the subject. This movie is not for the faint of heart!

Sunday Dec 18, 2022
Sunday Dec 18, 2022
Eyes of Fire, released in 1983, a deep-cut of Folk Horror strangeness. Does it “work?” Yes. Is it a success? Not really. Lucas will attempt to explain how this works, while Joe attempts to keep Lucas from too many digressions.

How do you talk about Argento’s Suspiria and Guadagnino’s Supiria side by side? Is there finally a remake of a movie that Lucas doesn’t hate? What makes this gruesome twosome even work in an era of less visionary films?

Episode 004: Incident in a Ghostland

Friday Nov 18, 2022
Lucas decides to re-watch Pascal Laugier’s Incident in a Ghostland. Predictably he has a lot to say about it. Does this movie deserve its reputation? We also talk a little about Extreme Horor, French Pop, and whether or not a line of dialogue made Lucas snap.

The Great War, World War One, left an indelible mark on the modern world. And horror cinema is no different! In this episode, Lucas discusses Deathwatch and Trench 11, as well as a movie that left him very unnerved.

Lucas spends some time rhapsodizing about the 1991 Full Moon Feature “Subspecies.” We also talk about “Elevated Horror,” Vampire tropes, the Blood of Saints, and whether or not a 31 year old B-flick is still worth your time.
