The People's Pick: "I Spit on Your Grave" Review
Demons, mutated animals, and zombies aren't the only threats to look out for when you vacation at a cottage around the woods. Movies like this go to show that sometimes, the monsters come dressed as ordinary human beings. Be prepared to squirm in your seat with this one as we delve into "I Spit…

The People's Pick: "Barbarian" Review

The People's Pick: "Terrified" Review
It's back to Argentina we go! This week's listener pick comes from Overly Enthusiastic Horror Fan. With a name like that, I imagine he probably knows a thing or two about horror movie recommendations. Seeing as how the last time we delved into some horror content from Argentina was when we…

A24 Talk & "Hollow" with Special Guest: Davide Tarsitano
We have always maintained that A24 is.....well, a mixed bag. Movies like Hereditary or Midsommar can seem genius to some and boring to others. What can't be denied, however, is the effect that said movies have had on horror and horror authors. Dystopian and horror author, Davide Tarsitano was…
