For those who can’t stop talking about A Quiet Place, who can’t stop watching Bird Box, comes a new attack on the senses. Scentless Violence follows a family trying to survive in a world overrun by an invasive alien species known only as “the Noses”. Cover your nose, don’t make a stink, or the Noses won’t be far behind.
This week’s poster is 2/3rds nose and 1/3rd the poster from A Quiet Place.
Are you being followed? By a moon shadow? This week’s film is once again set in the cold, dark vacuum of space. A monster stalks a space station, only attacking in the light of the moon. What could it be? An alien? A moon monster? Or a creature more commonly seen on the surface of the earth… Some sort of science werewolf? You’ll have to check out this week’s episode to find out!
Meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow. In an ode to classic Giallo films this movie attempts to ignite the future of the genre. We’re sending it to space in a ship full of cats to awaken a genre-centric witch. Note to listeners that this isn’t the true 69th episode as that one was lost in a particularly deep, dark Mars cave and was too horny for listener’s ears anyways.
It’s the most frightening time of the year. That’s right: Shocktober! So crack open a nice hot pumpkin latte and get the edge of your seat all warmed up for this year’s slew of frightfully terrifying horror movies.
We kick off the month with the not at all funny story of one man’s lethal combination of naivete and selfishness that leads to the massacre of a raging Halloween party. He’s the next Mr. Krueger or Mr. Meyers, you guessed it. It’s Mr. Bean!
In this episode we take a trip deep into the forests of Ecuador in search of walking trees. What are all the trees walking towards and why are we so strangely compelled to follow?
In this film an expedition researching the fabled walking trees notice that they do far more than walk. They think, they organize, they control and… THEY KILL!
This week’s movie is full of stars. Star wipes that is! When a director unleashes an ancient horror into the world in the form of a star only his assistant director can stop it before the world fades to black.
Star Wipe is the most perfect movie monster ever conceived. It can control time and space. It can move the narrative away from characters discussing it’s weaknesses. It has no weaknesses. It’s like the alien from Alien but without an organic form that can be killed. How do you stop a star from wiping out the world?
The scariest found footage films are made accidentally. This week’s episode follows two oblivious youtubers to an abandoned hotel. They’re looking for ghosts, but don’t notice the person in the walls following them the whole time. As a viewer, get just as confused and scared as the characters when rooms seem to switch around, doors get locked, and peafowl run rampant in the halls. I doubt they’ll make it out alive…but how are we seeing the found footage? Don’t think too hard and this film will paralyze you with fear!
This poster is an abstract landscape of ice for a movie that treats the open Arctic Ocean as an alien and hostile world. When a research vessel finds the rusted, destroyed husk of a ship–still floating–amidst ice floes, the crew unknowingly invites unceasing famine itself onboard when they rescue an unresponsive survivor. No Horizon reinvisions the myth of the wendigo, a creature conjured out of starvation’s last resort of cannibalism, as a mermaid symbol of decay and destruction that consumes everything that crosses its path. It’s a spaceship-meets-terrifying-alien movie set here on Earth. If the cold doesn’t get you, the hunger will.
We’re channeling David Lynch for this creepfest of a film. The Reception builds tension and anxiety all the way to the last image of the movie, which also happens to be the scariest. A couple arrives at a destination wedding that tests their relationship and individual resolve. First, as he gives his speech, the lead is forced by the groom to sing a song in front of the entire party. His embarrassment blisters into paranoia as the night continues. All he wants to do is return to his quiet hotel room. But he can’t leave without his soon-to-be fiancee, who seems to either be avoiding him or completely disappeared into the night. And it only gets worse from there…
What is a mummy but a cocoon? And if a mummy is but a cocoon then what is the butterfly? This week Andrew and Kelsey turn the mummy movie genre on it’s bandaged head. A group of explorers unwrap a mummy and catch a mouthful of curse spores that visit upon a small town all of the plagues of Egypt. This poster shows a blown up image of a single cell of the curse spores. Move over Tom Cruise, there’s another movie about mummies in town.
GHOST PARTY!
