WHAT'S IN THE PODCAST

Nature Strikes Back (Again) Month continues and for this week, this particular Anaconda doesn't care if you got buns or not. It doesn't even care if you have a ponytail and a nondescript accent. It doesn't care about your critical pretensions. This Anaconda is a good ol' fashioned creature feature at it's finest. FOLLOW KILLER HORROR CRITIC AT THE FOLLOWING: Bluesky: @werematt....

Nature Strike Back Again for the month of July and we kick off with a film that took an urban legend and made a film that endeavored to be more than just a Jaws ripoff movie. For the most part, it succeeds.

Before we leave the month of June we wanted to acknowledge the other parental figure commonly associated with household. To do that, we're spotlighting probably the most nightmarish father figure in horror history. Creepiest part of all... it was inspired on a true story.

We resume our discussion on the lesbian vampire subgenre with the film that has widely considered to be one of the best of its kind. Which between an abusive director and a tense, uncomfortable set, it's quite impressive that DAUGHTERS OF DARKNESS is a masterpiece. of the subgenre.

Maniac is one of the most detested films by the pearl clutching moralists and critics. William Lustig's gritty, uncomfortable, and downright nasty urban slasher is a daring exploration of a profoundly damaged mind played by the hypnotic Joe Spinnell and today we spotlight it.

During the English Civil War it was estimated that 500 people were executed as witches. Rumor has it 300 of those were done by Matthew Hopkins proclaimed by the crown to be the WITCHFINDER GENERAL and today we are going to spotlight the 1968 Vincent Price classic.

Here we are, Mother's Day. Because if you love your mom, you only have to voice your appreciation on the day the calendar dictates. But if she fawns over you, licks milk off you, and tries to kill your girlfriend like Aunt Cheryl in this hagsploitation gem... You are in the right is you pass this holiday by.

We are finally wrapping up our celebration of when Lyn and I tied the knot with the film where Bella and Edward tied the knot... and had a terrifying uncanny valley monstrosity, which seagueways into the most hilariously awesome finish that was a masterclass of trolling for book readers and casuals alike. NOTE: We do a brief recap of Part One but this is Episode is mainly a full commentary of Part...

Our month long trip to Forks continues with the entry that has been widely considered to be the best of the series. It helps that this one has solid action and horror scene courtesy of director David Slade.

We're continuing on through the Twilight franchise, but this time it is gonna get hairy, and ripped, and shirtless, and Michael Sheen-y, but not as much as we'd like on that latter point. Here is our Full-Length Commentary on New Moon.

Many of the great directors chose horror, but when it comes to Wes Craven... It could be said horror chose him and from those modest beginnings emerged one of the great visionaries of the genre and today we salute him.

We follow up our salute to Duane Jones with Bill Gunn's highly experimental meditation on addiction GANJA & HESS. A vampiric love story that was intended to be a "Blacula" cash in but wound up becoming one of the most influential titles in black cinema.

While we're late for "Single Shaming Day" we couldn't pass up the opportunity to discuss Josh Ruben, Michael Kennedy, Christopher Landon, and Phillip Murphy's deliriously enjoyable genre mash-up of saccharine romantic comedies and sanguine slashers. Needless to say, we've only got eyes for HEART EYES.

It's Friday the 13th but IN YO FACE! That's right, it's time for our next Full-Length Fan Commentary of Jason's Hockey Mask debut in 3D!!!

For Black History Month it seems right to pay tribute to one of the trailblazers of Black Horror by saluting the great Duane Jones and the film in which his casting completely changed the way a low budget grindhouse horror film was perceived in the history of horror for decades to come. It's George A. Romero's Classic "Night of the Living Dead."

We conclude Giallo-ary with the director who has arguably made Italian Horror a vital chapter in horror. Dario Argento, and today we spotlight one of his most celebrated Giallo DEEP RED

Giallo-ary continues and this time we delve into this steamy sinful offering from the black sheep of the Italian Masters, Sergio Martino. Today we discuss his gorgeous, dreamlike exploration of a woman whose dalliance with desire could lead to madness and murder. This is THE STRANGE VICE OF MRS. WARDH.
