The ghosts of your horror movie club explore a different sub-genre each month! Featuring creators from the spooky community, stoner filmmaker DeVaughn Taylor & film journalist Garrett McDowell discuss the recurring motifs of various sub-genres and what makes the best genre films work. New episodes every Tuesday! NOTE: We recommend starting at Season 2 (Ep60) as that's when Garrett joined and began our current format. Season 1 was the experimental phase haha NOTE: The first 99 episodes, we were under "Bloody Blunts" however the show didn't change, so Season 3 is where we continued as "Specter Cinema"

episode 179: NEAR DARK (1987) // Women Behind the Screams
Continuing our celebration of lady directors, the boys take a bite out of Kathryn Bigelow's vampire western Near Dark. We're talking queer metaphors, found family, Tangerine Dream, and Bigelow's unique take on vampire lore. It would suck to be a vampire, literally and figuratively!
New episodes drop every Tuesday, subscribe so you don't miss out. Rate us 5 stars while you're at it! Next week, we take a look at much different vampire western in A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night.
