Big fan! A very fun discussion after the surprisingly divisive response. IIn my mind, deadites are out to inflict pain both physically and mentally. And there’s still humor, it’s just more mean than goofy. Take a listen!

New Episode! Mike, @arihellraiser.bsky.social & @daddydisco.bsky.social talk about the divisive EVIL DEAD BURN, maybe one of the meanest films we've seen in a hot second. Did we like it? Listen & find out. 🟢 tinyurl.com/er4st4f9 🍎 tinyurl.com/53eak47w

Bangers only! After a month of Giallo, we’re appeasing the SEO gods with a selection of big hitters. Funny when programming this, ended up with three films from the same month. Genre fans were eating good in August 1986

We wanted to talk something modern showing giallo ain’t dead just yet! Love this @shudder.com gem from last year, so much sauce you’ll get a tummy ache. Some of the most creative costume design I’ve seen in a film! Give REFLECTION IN A DEAD DIAMOND a watch and take a listen

Stiil got some blindspots, but this is my favorite Argento film. The set-pieces are visceral and the camera movements are soooo fun (the wobbly heartbeat cam 🤌🏽). Take a listen!

Don’t sleep on THE INVITE! Wilde returns to the director’s chair with laser-focused control and precision: in a cool world, she gets for both nominated for acting and direction. Hell, throw Rogan and Cruz in there too! Phenomenal film, I really loved this 🤌🏽

A ★★★★★ review of The Invite (2026)

While it’s nice to have a cinematic spectacle to fawn over, it’s also nice to appreciate simple film executed on a near flawless level. A great script, a small but tight cast all on the same wavelengt...

I usually have fun watching Giallo films, but not this one! Intentionally and successfully upsetting due to its subject matter, Fulci wasn’t playing games. Take a listen!
