Episode 131: Twenty-Five from 2024- The Year in Horror
Although 2024 has passed, so many horror films were released that I am still playing catch-up to see them all!
You might have loved some and hated others, but there's no denying that the horror genre flourished in 2024 and continues to be one of our most diverse storytelling styles.
From traditional Gothic stories to deconstructed slashers to experimental monster movies to international versions of demons, there was something for every type of horror fan!
Join me as I examine twenty-five horror films to give my view of the "state of the horror union" for 2024. I'll discuss some of my favorites and the trends I noticed, and I'll also cover the movies that, for better or worse, influenced the constant evolution of the world's greatest genre!
I hope you enjoy the show!

Episode 129: Hellbent for Hong Kong: CAT III films with Ryan Smith- PART TWO

Welcome to PART TWO of our dive into Hong Kong CAT III films, the classification of the most outrageous, transgressive, explicit, and violent films. These films, made by a group of wild and unpredictable filmmakers, thrived from 1988 until the British Handover of Hong Kong to China in 1997. Hong Kong audiences loved these extremely unhinged movies, and their reputation spread across the globe! ...
Episode 128: Hellbent for Hong Kong: CAT III films with Ryan Smith- PART ONE

The UK created the Video Nasties list. The MPAA created NC-17. And Hong Kong had CATEGORY III films. It is probably the least widely known classification of outrageous, transgressive, explicit, and violent films. From 1988 to the British Handover of Hong Kong to China in 1997, the government tried to tame a group of wild and unpredictable filmmakers. Instead of killing business, the new rating ...

Episode 126: A Brief History of Failure
มุมมอง 308 หลายเดือนก่อน
Like it or not, failure is a part of creation, invention, and art. Sometimes, failure forces improvisation that creates something amazing; other times, not so much. So, I wanted to look at failure in horror: how some filmmakers overcame major setbacks and Acts of God, but also look at the movies centered around human error, where one mistake creates a chain reaction that leads to death, dismemb...
