Podcast Under The Stairs

In this episode of Podcast Under the Stairs, we turn our attention to the sci-fi horror-comedy Cold Storage, a fast-paced, fungus-fuelled creature feature packed with B-movie thrills, dark humour, and plenty of gloopy gore. Blending elements of horror, comedy and sci-fi, the film comes from writer David Koepp (Jurassic Park, Mission: Impossible, Spider-Man) and director Jonny Campbell (Dracula), d...

Robert Hard...

Duncan is back to review a late-era entry from Hammer Film Productions, Blood from the Mummy’s Tomb which stands apart from the studio’s earlier monster-led formula by reworking classic Mummy lore through a more psychological and intriguingly subversive lens. Directed by Seth Holt and based on a story by Bram Stoker, the film shifts the horror inward centred on identity, possession, and female pow...

Duncan is here to review a fascinating outlier in the Hammer Film Productions catalogue, Fear in the Night trades gothic horror for something far more intimate and unsettling. Directed by Jimmy Sangster, this psychological chiller leans heavily on atmosphere and performance, with Judy Geeson delivering a genuinely gripping turn as a woman unsure whether she’s being hunted or losing her grip on rea...
