We kick off with FEAR BELOW (Signature Entertainment) - a period thriller from Australia, where a team of divers have to salvage a submerged truck under the watchful eye of a bull shark! Next is IT FEEDS (Signature Entertainment), in which a teenage girl and her psychic mother must help a young girl who is being drained by a demon! THE NORTH WITCH (High Fliers Films) attempts to recreate The Blair Witch films as a conventional production rather than a Found Footage movie... FIRST SHIFT (Plaion Pictures) marks the return of director Uwe Boll, and deals with a lone wolf cop being forced to take on a newly promoted partner... HERETICS (High Fliers Films) is Asylum's second foray into the Found Footage format and sees some partying teens wind up in a haunted house, only to be picked off by a group of robed figures... Our Short Shot is BENEATH LONDON, a documentary about Alien War, a theme-park ride set up in the heart of London back in the mid-90's. Click the link to see the whole 23 minute film! Finally, in light of Arrow Video releasing the 4K remaster, we take a look at JASON GOES TO HELL: THE FINAL FRIDAY, which sees Jason Voorhees lose his corporeal body and move from host to host to continue his violent rampage!

Send us a textStep back into the sewers with us as we celebrate the groundbreaking 1990 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film—a movie that holds the distinction of being the most profitable indie film until Blair Witch came along nearly a decade later. What makes this original adaptation so special? Why do all subsequent reboots pale in comparison?From Jim Henson's revolutionary puppetry work to the perfect blend of humor and heart, we break down the film scene by scene, highlighting memorable moments like Raphael's anger issues, Casey Jones' vigilante introduction, and the emotional connection between Splinter and his turtle sons. Did you know each actor who wore a turtle suit also appeared in human cameos throughout the movie? Or that Corey Feldman voiced Donatello for a mere $7,000 because he didn't think the film would succeed?The conversation naturally flows into our recent entertainment experiences, from the immersive world of Oblivion Remastered to Disney+'s surprisingly gritty Daredevil series. We debate the merits of practical effects versus CGI, reminisce about classic gaming mechanics, and share recommendations for games like Space Marines 2 and the upcoming Ready or Not.Whether you're a longtime TMNT fan or simply appreciate groundbreaking filmmaking, this nostalgic deep dive captures why some cultural touchstones continue to resonate decades later. The practical effects, authentic performances, and earnest storytelling of the original Turtles film created something special that modern technology simply can't replicate—proving sometimes, the original recipe remains the best.Support the show

Author Ally Russell ("It Came From the Trees," Delacorte Press, 2024) joins Scotty to discuss growing up as a horror fan in the zombie hub of Pittsburgh, taking inspiration from R.L. Stine, Stephen King, and her father's macabre sense of humor, deciding to pursue a career as a writer after working as a bookseller at Barnes & Noble, and pursuing an MFA in Children's Literature at Simmons University in Boston. She talks about what she learned about writing for young readers, her terror of the woods, her fascination with aliens and cryptids, her love of found footage horror, and how she applied all of that to her debut middle-grade novel. Ally and Scotty also talk about how "The Blair Witch Project" (1999) influenced her work, and how its under-appreciated 2016 sequel "Blair Witch" builds upon its predecessor. You can find Ally online at https://allyrussellbooks.com You can buy "It Came From the Trees" at https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/720273/it-came-from-the-trees-by-ally-russell/ Be sure to tune in to Daniel Braum's YouTube series "Night Time Logic."

In this remarkable 100th episode of Genre Exposure, we do our usual just a bit early and usher 2024 to a close with a final look back over the year. First, we reflect a bit on the podcast itself and go over some things we learned and struggled with during the year and highlight some of our favorite moments and share just a few regrets. After that, we take our stab at proper top 10 lists and go over some of our favorite film discoveries we made this year. This will be Jason's last episode for the year as he gears up for a very special vacation. Join us in wishing him well on his trip. Dustin will continue his J-Horror Journal to close out 2024 and look for Genre Exposure to return proper in full force next year. To everyone that has tuned in, left a comment, or even reached out with feedback, thank you so much. We really appreciate it and it means the world to us.

It's fun to reminisce with friends about past horrors, right? Well, this one is a bit more literal as the first thing Royale w/ Cheese wanted to talk about was Halloween Ends and that's a past horror to me for all the wrong reasons. No, the name of the day is JASON EGAN and we're talking his IP based escape rooms offered off the strip in Las Vegas, NV. We first did The BLAIR WITCH, then we did SAW, and finished it with IT chapters 1 and 2. All were amazing. All were gush-able. But the crown jewel rests in Area 15 - let's talk MEOW WOLF. Maybe not. Keep the spoilers free, here. You need to go, you need to experience it yourself - just TRUST ME. GO. DO IT. But that's all that we covered as far as our recent trip to Sin City goes. I couldn't have this guy back for his second episode without reading SOMETHING though, right? Of course not. Let's get classic with it! We read a classic creepy pasta, submitted by our listener and patron TrevorTheWereFishy and then we go a NoSleep story I've been holding onto for a while. Strap in and strap on, folks.

Tim Sutton (Marble Hornets) joins the lads for a bit of light camping and intense witch-hunting as they cover Eduardo Sánchez and Daniel Myrick's 1999 horror phenomenon: The Blair Witch Project. Topics include the film's DIY filmmaking, the unprecedented marketing, and what it means to reap the consequences of a nation's wrongdoings when you're just trying to make a dang student film.

Join Jesse, Zach, and Micheal as they interview Eduardo Sánchez, the co-director of the groundbreaking horror classic, The Blair Witch Project!
Even though The Blair Witch Project didn't invent the genre, it's probably the best-known and the biggest hit of all the found footage movies. The online marketing campaign was especially revolutionary. It's a shame that Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sanchez never hit these heights again as writers or directors, but they got so much mileage out of their made-up story, considering it was mostly improvised by the then-unknown Heather Donahue, Joshua Leonard and Michael Williams. The unresolved mystery takes a lot of heat for its ambiguity, yet Ryan's one-man show talks about how haunting the whole thing still feels 25 years later. This 621st edition of Have You Ever Seen also talks a lot about who or what might have caused these 3 to disappear. So face the wall on this penultimate day of both October and of Scary Movie Month as this episode tries to figure out the horrific deal in The Blair Witch Project. Additional note: both the fake documentary "The Curse Of The Blair Witch" and the 2016 "Blair Witch" have been rewatched since recording this podcast. The "doc" is indeed very effective and even quite eerie. And while the 2016 sequel has its moments, Adam Wingard is WAY too reliant on jump scares and loud shock moments to bother building the dread the original Blair Witch did.

Welcome back to another installment in our Snake With Big Teeth 2024 celebration. This time we watched a game show where literally nothing happens. Like, truly... nothing. So get ready for an episode that is half discussing the extended universe of Sonic the Hedgehog and half discussing Shakespeare's timeless classic Hamlet. Do we blur the lines between those two worlds? You'll have to listen to find out! (But I mean, yeah. Of course we do.) Zach liked Ghost Whisperer for the plot, Jared adds a new Haunted House Rule™, and Adam is definitely Tails. Talking Points Include: What Happened To Knuckles, Halloween Costumes, Fifteen Minutes of Silence, Top Ghost Complaints, Return of Jared's Haunted House Rules, All of Les Mis, A Chance to Shoot Our Spec Script, It Can't Be Happy's Place, Hamlet Live Commentary
In the small town of Burkittsville, Maryland, student filmmakers Heather, Josh and Mike, head into the woods to document the folklore tale of the Blair Witch. Unable to find their way out, the filmmakers are terrorised by forces unseen. The Blair Witch Project changed the landscape of cinema. It popularised a new form of horror movie, used the burgeoning internet to its advantage when marketing the film, and as a result became one of the most profitable films ever made. All The Right Movies are lost, angry in the woods, and no one is here to help us. That's our motivation.

Mike Burdge is joined by Scotty Arnold to discuss what we've all been up to for the past few months, as well as diving into the decades spanning franchise of The Blair Witch, including The Curse of the Blair Witch, The Blair Witch Project, Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 and Blair Witch. Topics include liking movies that some just straight up detest, the Wingard/Barrett onslaught on horror, found footage as a horror sub-genre and the timelessness of certain films that just feel cursed.
On this episode of The Hollywood Outsider podcast, it's Halloween, and as we have done in the past for Halloween and Christmas, we like to put out a bit of a compilation of favorite topics or interviews from years past that celebrate these specific holidays. And this one has a very special anniversary episode, actually TWO of them. First up: we return to one of our favorite segments as we decide, once-and-for-all, what the is the BEST! Could it be The Exorcist, or possibly Poltergeist? Could A Nightmare on Elm Street out-slash The Blair Witch Project? Is Paranormal Activity more ghastly (and ghostly) than The Ring? Do exploding stomachs out-scare the horrific haunting that takes place in The Conjuring? Find out the winner with our Scariest Movie Battle Royale! Then, it is time to prep for All Hallows' Eve as we take to our own respective graveyards and dig up obscure Halloween movies. Trick r Treat has taken off in recent years, and there are many little unspoken gems like this one to get us all hyped up for the best movie season of the year for horror fans! Take a listen, and rest assured to walk away with at least a few new Halloween gems to watch this season of the witch. Next, it is the 25th anniversary of The Blair Witch Project this year. If you find a list of the greatest horror films, you'll find this now classic on that list. $250 million made worldwide, popularizing an entire genre and inspiring countless filmmakers across the globe, and even earned a Guinness world record for top budget to box office ratio – Blair Witch has earned the title of classic. And for the film's 25th anniversary, we wanted to sit down and discuss the film and its legacy with one of the filmmakers directly responsible for it, Eduardo Sánchez. Finally, it is the 10th anniversary of our special podcast episode on Women In Horror. Justin Macumber and Aaron Peterson are joined by guests (at the time) Amanda and Eliyanna to discuss how women in films, specifically horror films, have evolved throughout the years. From the early days of the black and white classics, such as Psycho, to the ‘Final Girl' and revenge fantasy films of the 70's, all the way to modern times with Scream, Buffy, and others: The entire history of women in horror films is open for debate. This is a detailed, lively, and entertaining discussion you do NOT want to miss!

Dr. Kirby Surprise, author of Synchronicity: The Art of Coincidence, Choice, and Unlocking Your Mind joins us to talk about what synchronicity is, what it is not, and how you can normalize it in your life. But it doesn't end there. Jeff and Jer bring Dr. Surprise down the rabbit hole of alien abductions and spirituality to see if his work is applicable to Paratopian findings. And you know what? The answer is... yes. All of this leads to a spectacular afterchat where the hosts flesh out some startling new insights into the possible nature of ''contact.'' Aaaand then there's an EVP. And the ending is Blair Witch for real. Oh, this one has everything. Buckle up! You can't find this ride any place else.

This week we chat with Stuart Ortiz, the writer/director behind Grave Encounters 1 & 2 as well as Extraterrestrial. We chat with him about his latest movie Strange Harvest: Occult Murder in the Inland Empire, a mockumentary true crime film with cosmic horror overtones. Strange Harvest just premiered at Fantastic Fest 2024 and will be rolling out to other film festivals coming up. Mary Beth and Terry absolutely loved it and it was a joy to be able to chat with Stuart about his film, the world building, his relationship to horror and ultimately why Curse of the Blair Witch terrified him growing up. We chat about the Sci-Fi mockumentary's ability to terrify, Terry shares his story of watching it right before Blair Witch came out and Mary Beth shares her thoughts as a first time watcher. You can follow Stuart on Instagram. Also be sure to check out his music that he creates as Blac Corset here on SoundCloud or wherever you listen to music!

This is an update on the new developments surrounding one of my favorite movies of all time, The Blair Witch Project, paired with our 2019 minisode. When news broke that the film's production company Lionsgate will be reviving the franchise with genre giant Blumhouse, the three original actors took to social media with a serious bone to pick. The Blair Witch Project masqueraded as real found footage of three college students who went missing in the woods while recording a documentary on the local legend. The story of the missing students and the lore of the Blair Witch were both widely believed during its monumental release, and we are covering just how the directors and marketing team were able to pull off one of the greatest hoaxes in American history, creating an original urban legend and facilitating its spread while also using a truly unorthodox method of filming, essentially becoming the Blair Witch, that encouraged true fear out of the actors.
