While it may not technically be a horror movie, The Night Comes for Us still contains levels of gore and violence normally reserved for horror movies, so it's more than welcome in our book! This gruesome gem is a fabulous example of the recent wave of hyper-violent martial arts/action films from Indonesia (a subgenre totally worth looking into, by the way)!   Spookin' On: Amy – Deep Rising (1998)...

This week, Kyle and Amy's adventures in intensity have taken them to Turkey, land of the brutal, beautiful fever dream that is Baskin (2015).

Listeners be forewarned: this week's episode covers a very graphic film and the ensuing discussion will be just as graphic.  Ichi the Killer  is definitely not for everyone, but that's just fine!
