Tangents On Terror

 On Election Eve, Chelsea and Jeremy return to political horror with The Purge: Election Year and They Live.

It’s our Halloween Special! Chelsea, Jeremy and special guest Chase Will (Crypt-Teaze.com) talk about 3 unique films from the Halloween franchise: Halloween III, Halloween: H20, and Rob Zombie’s Halloween. Guess which one Chelsea hates!

Chelsea and new co-host Jeremy Cordy explore political horror with Jordan Peele's Get Out and William Lustig's Maniac Cop.

Chelsea talks to author Eric LaRocca ("Starving Ghosts in Every Thread", "A Bright Enchanted Suffering") about his literary influences, David Cronenberg, and the importance of queer representation in horror. 

Chelsea sits down with filmmaker and actress Natasha Halevi (“Beauty Juice”, “Fatale Collective: Bleed”, “BC Butcher”) to talk about being part of an all female filmmaking collective, how her background as a scientist informs her as an actor, and how she finally gave herself permission to be a director.

Special Guest Jeremy Cordy (“Porking Mandy”, “The Purgation”) is back to help Chelsea continue her deep dive into found footage! This week we’re discussing “Paranormal Activity”, “Cloverfield”, “Host” and our predictions for the future of found footage filmmaking!

This week marks Part 1 of our deep dive into the divisive found footage genre as Chelsea and special guest filmmaker Jeremy Cordy (“Porking Mandy”) explore the origins of the found footage horror craze with “Man Bites Dog” and “The Blair Witch Project”. 

Grab your Trapper Keeper and your Jansport backpack because Chelsea and special guest Catherine Corcoran (“Terrifier”, “Return to Nuke ‘Em High Vol 1 & 2”) are taking you back to the horrors of high school as we dissect the feminist thrills of “Carrie” and “The Craft”.

Join Chelsea and her special guest Rocky The Collector (host of the true crime podcast The Collection) as they talk the infamous summer crimes of Son of Sam and the Manson Family, and the films that depict them: “Summer of Sam” and “Helter Skelter”.

Stay out of the water because it’s shark week here at Tangents on Terror and we’re talking the Jaws sequels! Join Chelsea and co lifeguard/ film critic Bill Bria as they discuss coked-up actors, dolphin rapists, pre-production nightmares and why the Jaws series is the perfect quarantine bingewatch. 

Pack your bug spray and your sunblock because your Head Counselor Chelsea Holland and special guest Co-Counselor Catherine Weingarten are taking you to SUMMER CAMP! Experience all the highs, lows, and twist endings as we explore 2 cult classic summer camp slashers “Sleepaway Camp” and “The Burning”.

This train is making one stop, and that stop is Snuffville. Snuff has always been a nightmare mythos (since the dawn of film!), and we're here with the lowdown. Are they real? Are they fake? Does it matter? 

We got a real life doctor to explain our brains in relation to the macabre. Not only is Dr. Schwartz a mental health expert, he's also a horror film enthusiast. Prepare to learn a lot about your twisted mind! And no, he can't cure your sadness, we already asked him. 

Take Sarah's hand as she guides you along the sacred path of Religious Horror *cue the Gregorian chants*. This episode has it all: Arnold Schwarzenegger defeating Satan with heavy artillery, a full rundown of the Luciferian Commandments and scientific proof revealing that Gabriel Byrne is the sexiest Devil of them all. 

Yep, you read that right. Lesbian Vampires is an ACTUAL horror genre... and a queer one, at that! In this episode, Chelsea pulls out all the stops on this exploitation thrill ride. So fire up some Baushaus, throw a cloak on and let's get groovin'. 

Lloyd Kaufman: the KING of independent filmmaking. We got the Troma man himself to talk about creativity during COVID, the return of the drive-in movie theatre and a potential Toxic Avenger remake in the works. Get ready for some hot takes!

May we present to you: our most explicit episode. We take a deep dive into necrophilia in cinema... as well as the necrophilia that lives inside our hearts.

Live from the depths of Hell (actually, Los Angeles, CA) filmmakers Chelsea Holland and Sarah London bring you a special sneak peek into future episodes of the podcast.
