    I already wrote this summary once but the browser crashed and I'm really grumpy about having to write it again. Tonight's main feature is our first-time watch of The Haunting of the Tower of London by Dark Temple Films. We also do spoiler-free reviews of two shorts: The Thing That Ate the Birds and The Beckoning. Other topics include the Uncanny podcast on BBC Sounds, Doctor Sleep, and the now-legendary FUNNY QUIZ!

    Tonight we watch a stone cold classic and emerge somewhat bewildered, with some very strong opinions on how to stack boxes. We also recommend some British indies: Homebound by Sebastian Godwin, and the work of George Popov and Jonathan Russell, aka Rubicon Films.

    23: TMHP 023: The Fallow Field

    Play Episode Listen Later Mar 22, 2022 56:56


    Hannah and Ellis watch a low budget (but very interesting) British horror called The Fallow Field. You probably haven't seen it, so, for one night only, we revive the spoiler-free bit that we stopped doing several episodes ago. That's followed by spoilers between 22:00 and 36:50. We also mention Fear Street, another British indie called Followers, and a bit of news about an audiobook from Bafflegab Productions. AND there's a funny quiz. Ambassador, with this hour of content you are really spoiling us.

    22: TMHP 022: James Wan's Malignant

    Play Episode Listen Later Mar 12, 2022 55:57


    Tonight we watch Malignant and do a funny quiz. One heck of a film - one heck of a quiz.

    Join Ellis and Hannah for something different: their spoiler-filled review of Bafflegab's full cast audio adaptation of The Signalman by Charles Dickens. Includes a funny quiz with a surprising number of sharks.

    We're back!!  Apologies for the interruption - it turns out we don't like watching films separately, so lockdown turned into a brief hiatus.  We're now back in business and couldn't be more delighted.  In this reunion show, we talk about toilets, buses and Galaxy Minstrels before sitting down to watch a 1957 film called Night of the Demon.  Don't know it?  Neither did we.  Tune in to find out if we liked it.
