Beyond Mamushi is a tightly-wound piece of Horror from Writer-Director M. W. Daniels. It kept Lucas and Joe guessing...so should you give it a watch? Join them as they slide into the Horror of the Everyday! "When Kate Andrews' perfect life in her dream home implodes under her partner's sadistic psychological brutality and her medication-fuelled hallucinations, it's not the only menace that torments her and her new refuge may either hold the key to her survival or unravel an unimaginable hell." Beyond Mamushi was successfully premiered on February 28th, 2026 at The Lumiere Cinema in London U.K. to a sell out audience.  There will be a second screening there on Saturday September 19th, 2026. https://www.lumiereromford.com Thank you for listening to The Fright Lab.

Making movies is a hard job, doubly so during a global pandemic. Do these constraints make or break Horror in the High Desert? Can fictional films do proper justice to real life events? We covered this back in our series on Horror Cinema Verité, but didn't give this movie much air. Time to change that.

We all know the story of The Monkey's Paw...but what happens when you use the whole damned primate? Half Jacob & Esau story, half Suburban Fairy Tale, The Monkey slams together the best of wry humor with freakish amounts of violence. This might not sound like the start of a great time. But it might just be the "Feel Weird Hit of the Season." This movie reminds Lucas of a simple truth: Never trust a smiling monkey.

Most Horror fans were very, very worried that Dede Alvarez's 2013 remake of The Evil Dead would be a heartless cash-in on the 1981 original. But Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell did not let us down. If remakes are a hard-sell for you, let Lucas make the argument. If you want a Horror flick, this movie is a solid portion of the Evil Dead canon.

If Creepshow is too joyful, and The Autopsy of Jane Doe is too directly intense, maybe Let's Scare Jessica To Death is going to be more to your tastes.
