Fresh off of Fantastic Fest in Austin Texas we get an in depth look into the award winning film The Vile with director Majid Al Ansari. The Vile is brought to you by the producers of films such as Insidious, Late Night With The Devil, Weapons, and gave us such a unique experience into the world of genre films with this Emirati feature. With the foundation of drama, polygamous relationship, and the effects it has on families in Muslim culture this could have been a movie on it's own without the horror elements, but as Majid sprinkles in black magic and supernatural forces around the events, he turns this riveting family drama into an even wilder ride. Was so cool to pick his brain and get even more layers on how this came to be and how this film is going against the grain of how the majority of movies are made in his country.
In this episode we break down the movie Weapons, now available on demand. We break down the themes, the style, and Aunt Gladys.We also play a game where we draft the best horror movies of all time. And we leave you with something to watch next.

With its multi-perspective storytelling and unnerving atmosphere, Weapons keeps audiences guessing while slowly tightening the screws. We discuss the film's haunting performances, masterful pacing, and unsettling sense of humor, as well as how it fits into Cregger's growing reputation as one of horror's most unpredictable voices.

Brian Keene has written so many damn books! …and I had never read any of them. This absolute horror faux-pas (and my embarrassment) is the reason that it's taken so long to get Brian on the show. But I set a week aside and read as many Keene books as I could and here we are… on a leisurely stroll through Brian's life and career,both of which he has devoted to stories of really nasty s*** happening to undeserving people. We talk abouthis bleak coming-of-age novel, Ghoul, his story of a homicidal nightfrom hell, The Complex, and his sombre study of mortality and writing inthe 21st century, The End of the Road. And between all that we cover hope and nihilism, we ask if horror could help shore up the failing centre, and Brian talks me through all the great writers I missed when I wasn't paying enough attention to horror. Enjoy! Other books mentioned: The Rising (2003), by Brian Keene Entombed (2011), by Brian Keene Ghoul (2007), by Brian Keene End of the Road (2020), by Brian Keene The Cellar (1980), by Richard Laymon The Beast House (1986), by Richard Laymon The Island (1995), by Richard Laymon A Writer's Tale (1998), by Richard Laymon The Girl Next Door (1989), by Jack Ketchum Survivor (2002), by J.F.
