World of Horror with Mom & Mac

For this episode, I am looking at two stories that involve snuff films: EVIL DEAD TRAP from Japan and THESIS / TESIS from Spain.

Neither makes a whole lot of sense, but each has its brilliant charms.

The kills in EVIL DEAD TRAP are great and the plot takes a serious left turn in the third act. THESIS is one of my favorite films despite some of the annoying plot holes...

WoHos!

This week we took a look at two movies by a director we respect a lot, Ti West. We reviewed THE HOUSE OF THE DEVIL, which Mom loves and Mac...does not and THE INNKEEPERS, which is near and dear to both our hearts.

Coming up on World of Foundational Horror, THESIS from Spain and EVIL DEAD TRAP from Japan. Next up on the Quinnisode, HUSH, HUSH, SWEET CHARLOTTE. Next up on the main show, TETSUO & eXistenZ...

WoHos!

This week we look at two horror classics about possession: THE EXORCIST from the US & THE WAILING from South Korea.
We like this pairing because we find divergence in parenting and the nature of the devil depicted in each...

Q-Balls!

This week we looked at the 1944 psychological thriller, GASLIGHT. If you've ever wondered what the supposed origin of the ubiquitous term was, you should check out this movie. It's got a great cast and wonderful cinematography.

As per, Q and I have a somewhat lengthy Christina & Quinn chat. If you'd like to jump to the discussion of the film, that starts around minute 19:02...

(WoHos!)

Sorry! We had some audio issues, but I think I got them worked out!

You'll forgive the later-than-usual release of this episode. I got sidelined by a little of the mid-summer doldrums.

This week Mac and I looked at TENEBRAE from Italy and YOU'RE NEXT in our detour into slashers...

WoHos!

Well, as Quinn journeys back to her homeland for a few weeks, we thought it might be fun to talk about another Hitchcock film. This one just happens to be my fave. I wanted to save this one until June 30, which is the 72nd anno of this classic flick, but as Quinn has, (and maybe some of you WoHos have) some driving ahead of you this week and weekend, I thought I would release it a little earlier. Look. You're Welcome.

The Christina & Quinn chat is long again...

WoHos!

Did Y'all forget how toxic V/H/S is? Because we sure had!
Spoiler: We didn't like these movies too much.

(You might want to check out V/H/S 2, GONJIAM, HAUNTED ASYLUM, GRAVE ENCOUNTERS, CLOVERFIELD, REC, THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT, and even THE TAKING OF DEBORAH LOGAN before you look at this one)...

WoHos!

Thanks for tuning in to this World of Foundational Horror™ special bonus episode...

Hey, Q-Balls!

We're back this week with a movie I swore I'd never watch again and a movie I have watched more times than I can count: A CLOCKWORK ORANGE & THE PARALLAX VIEW. We talk a whole lot about A CLOCKWORK ORANGE and I talk a little bit about THE PARALLAX VIEW.

After a long Christina & Quinn Chat wherein we discuss Quinn's birthday, favorite childhood authors, ouija boards, meditation, progress vs...

WoHos!

This time we met to discuss another actor-director team-up we love: Eggers and Dafoe! We reviewed THE LIGHTHOUSE & THE NORTHMAN. Do not watch these movies back-to-back...
