Lake Mungo (2008)

Some horror films scare you. This one haunts you. This week on the Grindhouse Syndicate we are heading down under for a film that left us genuinely shaken in ways that are hard to even put into words. Joel Anderson's 2008 Australian masterpiece Lake Mungo is one of the most beautifully crafted and emotionally devastating horror films we have ever covered on this show — and we had a lot to say about it. We dig into Anderson's incredible screenplay and why the story hits so much harder than your typical ghost story, how the documentary style feels so perfectly chosen for this particular narrative that you forget you are watching a film, and the remarkable cast who improvised their performances giving the whole thing an authenticity that is almost uncomfortable to watch. But most of all we talk about how genuinely sad this film is. Lake Mungo is a horror film that sneaks up on you emotionally and hits you somewhere deep that you did not expect. We were affected by this one in ways we are still processing. So join us this week as the Grindhouse Syndicate takes on the film that broke us a little bit — and we mean that as the highest possible compliment!Show Links:Shows Official Website: Grindhouse horror podhttps://www.grindhousehorrorpod.com/Shows Official Store:https://www.grindhousehorrorpod.com/store/Patreon: The Grindhouse Syndicate A Horror Movie Podcasthttps://www.patreon.com/TheGrindhouseSyndicateAHorrorMoviePodcastFacebook: @ The Grindhouse syndicate horror podcasthttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61550832364599Instagram: @ Grindhousesyndicate.horror.podhttps://www.instagram.com/grindhousesyndicate.horror.pod/Tik Tok: The Grindhouse Horror Podcast @ Grindhouse.Horror.Pod. https://www.tiktok.com/@grindhouse.horror.podYouTube Page:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXBltuX64Bc2G8Nq1x3FNkQ#Horror #horrorfan #horrorgram #horrormovie #horrorjunkie #horrormovies #horrorfanatic #lakemungo #foundfootage #screenaustralia #halloween #ghosts #elevatedhorror #horrorpodcast #shudder #Movies #moviepodcasts #youtubepodcast #spotifypodcast #applepodcast #fypシ゚ #horrorfilmsandmovies #horrorfilmsacry #horrorfilmsbest #horrorfilmpodcast #horrorreview #bloodydisgusting #patreon
