WoHos!

This week I had the pleasure of speaking to filmmaker and Animal Attacks film fan, Stefan MacDonald-Labelle. We spoke about his film, HEAD LIKE A HOLE and the incomprehensible DEEP BLOOD, which is 3/4 teen drama and 1/4 anti-shark propaganda. Neither of us had seen it and now we are both forever changed.

We also discuss Stefan's adventures on the Indie Film Festival Circuit, crossing the border into the U.S., cute dogs, and the insufferable heat.

Next time on the main show Mac and I discuss Musical Horror films with LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS & THE LURE.

Please mark your calendars and check out Stefan's film next month!!

WoHos! This week our focus was "Big Ol' Monsters". We watched GODZILLA (1954) and one of Mac's childhood faves, CLOVERFIELD.

We also talked about: Fireworks, Popping out of the news, social anxiety (obvs), old people at the Y, Mom's memories of 9/11, and Mac's memories of being a flower girl.

Do these films hold up? Half of them do!

We love you, WoHo's. DON'T go into the basement!!

This week we looked at two buckwild films about phantoms: THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA (1925) and PHANTOM OF THE PARADISE!

We also discussed: The current heatwave, our ambivalence about Allison Williams, "Couple to Throuple", uncool names for villains, cursive as a lost art, ALW, checking for ghosts before you buy a property, complaining to management, and losing weight.

Next time we are looking at "Big Ol' Monster" horror films with GODZILLA (1954) and CLOVERFIELD.

This week we looked at two vampire films--one more than 100 years old!

We also talked about: Mac taking ballet classes, default pronouns for trans people, Mac's birthday and the grief monster, the no-call list for Father's Day, discreetly asking if one's parents are still alive and the off-label use of teaspoons.

Next time we look at more classical horror with The Phantom of the Opera (1925) and The Phantom of the Paradise.

WoHos!!

And hello to all our new WoHos! Welcome!

This week we looked at two horror films that take place in retirement homes: NEXT OF KIN (1982) & THE RULE OF JENNY PEN.

The first is a moody giallo-esque vibe of a film and the second is an exploration of tyrnany and how difficult it may be to fight.

We had a lovely chat and we'd love to hear what you thought of these films!

Next time we look at Vampire films with NOSFERATU (1922) and 30 DAYS of NIGHT.

Remember...We love you and DON'T go into the basement!!

This is one chatty episode! We looked at READY OR NOT & THE PLATFORM this week--two horror films about class warfare.

We also talked: Lack of spatial awareness, Mom's friendly town, "Kids today", rich people we've known, befuddlement over billionaires, and sobriety, among other things.

Next time on the main show Mac & I will talk "Horror in the Old Folks' Home" with NEXT OF KIN from Australia and THE RULE OF JENNY PEN from the US (but set in New Zealand?)

WoHos!

Welp. This week we looked at two films, all right. Mom hated THE PERFECTION and there was no love lost between Mac & STOPMOTION.

CW for mention/suggestion of child rape in THE PERFECTION and childhood trauma in STOPMOTION.

Both films are about mental illness and both fail spectacularly in its depiction. THE PERFECTION could have been a joyous, campy romp, but it is too careless with its subject matter and results in a horribly distasteful mess.

STOPMOTION has some wonderful stop motion sequences which may be worth the price of admission, but even with its short run time, it overstays its welcome.

This was a fun conversation about two repellent films.

Next time we are covering two films that deal with class warfare: READY OR NOT & THE PLATFORM.

WoHos!

Mac and I are back to talk all things "Forest Horror" with two Englsih horror films: EDEN LAKE from 2008 and THE RITUAL from 2017.

The Internet describes EDEN LAKE as "A young couple on a romantic weekend break at a remote lakehouse, are terrorised by a group of vicious delinquents".

The Internet describes THE RITUAL as "Reuniting after the tragic death of their friend, four college pals set out to hike through the Scandinavian wilderness. A wrong turn leads them into the mysterious forests of Norse legend, where an ancient evil exists and stalks them at every turn".

We talk a lot about how much we preferred the novel of THE RITUAL much more than the film. Probably too much. I'm sorry.

We also talk: Being in the dead dad club, Eastern NC accents, Is Michael Fassbender a badman? and how weird guns are.

Next time on the main show Mac and I discuss "Obsession Over Art" films with THE PERFECTION & STOPMOTION.

Thanks for all your support. It means The World of Horror™ to us, truly.
