Horror movies are big business: this year, they've accounted for more ticket sales in the U.S. than comedies and dramas combined, bringing in over a billion dollars at the box office. And the phenomenon goes beyond a hunger for cheap thrills and slasher flicks; artists have been using horror to explore deep-seated communal and personal anxieties for centuries. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz, along with the New Yorker culture editor Alex Barasch, use three contemporary entries—“The Babadook,” “Saint Maud,” and “Weapons”—to illustrate the inventive filmmaking and sharp social commentary that have become hallmarks of modern horror. “In the past, the horror would be something external that's disrupting a previously idyllic town or life. Now there's a lot more of: the bad thing has already happened to you,” Barasch says. “You already have a trauma at the beginning of the film—or even before the film begins—and then that is eating you from the inside, or trying to kill you, and you have to grapple with that.”Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“The Babadook” (2014)“Rosemary's Baby” (1968)“Scream with Me,” by Eleanor Johnson“Hereditary” (2018)“The Substance” (2024)“Saint Maud” (2020)The “Saw” franchise (2004—)“The Exorcist” (1973)“The Case Against the Trauma Plot,” by Parul Sehgal (The New Yorker)“Weapons” (2025)“Barbarian” (2022) “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre” (1974)“Get Out” (2017)“Alien” (1979)“The Blair Witch Project” (1999)“Talk to Me” (2022)New episodes drop every Thursday.

Happy Birthday an uns selbst! Wir feiern nicht nur 7 Jahre wahnwitzigen Film-Talk, sondern haben uns zur Party auch direkt den Schlotterkatalog von Pluto TV eingeladen. Da tummeln sich finstere Typen mit Axt, Camcorder-Klassiker oder große Twists im Torture-Keller – allesamt bereit für eine kleine Retrospektive. Zwischen Gänsehaut-Geschichten und Jubiläumstränen wird's nostalgisch, blutig und irgendwie auch ein bisschen romantisch. Wie immer gilt: Bleibt dran, nicht verpassen!

It's Night 7 of our 13 Nights of Halloween series—and this one's extra special. We're joined by our friend and horror archivist Steven from After Hrs Video to help us celebrate our 100th episode of The Average Reviews! And what better way to mark a milestone than by getting lost in the woods with one of the most iconic horror films of the last 30 years: The Blair Witch Project. Released in 1999 and shot on a shoestring budget, The Blair Witch Project changed the horror landscape forever. With its shaky cam, raw performances, and groundbreaking viral marketing campaign, it blurred the lines between fiction and reality—and terrified audiences into thinking it might just be real.
W pięćset siedemdziesiątym czwartym tygodniu nadawania Jerry i Szymas wyruszają na Kapitularz! Po premierze „Blair Witch Project” horror found footage zaczął święcić triumfy na kinowych ekranach. „Paranormal activity” czy „Rec” to serie, o których słyszał każdy fan grozy. My postanowiliśmy jednak nie wracać do dobrze znanej klasyki, lecz zabrać Was na wycieczkę do Azji! Jak do wspomnianej konwencji podchodzi legendarny Koji Shiraishi, reżyser chociażby „Noroi” czy „Occult”? Jak twórcy serialu „Fake Dockumentary Q” bawią się formą FF? Czym charakteryzuje się „Senritsu Kaiki File Kowasugi”? Wpadnijcie posłuchać! Zwłaszcza, jeżeli nie jesteście fanami found footage z USA czy Europy!

Jay Drakulic, Mallory Drumm, and Alex Lee Williams are the filmmakers behind Dream Eater, a Lovecraft-inspired found-footage horror film shot on a shoestring budget in a remote Quebec cottage.When their original project lost funding, they rebuilt it from scratch, turning their setbacks into a creative advantage and crafting an intimate, atmospheric story about dreams, dread, and an unraveling relationship.The movie may be called Dream Eater, but the filmmakers' story is a dream come true; powered by positive word of mouth and support from the online horror community, Dream Eater found a passionate audience and ultimately caught the attention of Eli Roth, who acquired the film and released it under his new horror production banner, The Horror Section.I really loved this interview, I connected with the filmmakers personally and found them to be very cool and inspiring because this story is very much in line with those of The Blair Witch Project and Paranormal Activity in terms of the ingenuity and tenacity among filmmakers who adapt and adapt and don't take no for an answer and get their movies made regardless of anything and ultimately is what this podcast is about.Key TakeawaysTransmutation: Turn limitations into opportunity and never submit to defeat.The creators of Dream Eater originally had a larger-scale, higher-budget project in motion — until the funding fell through. Rather than throw their hands up and walk away, they went back to the drawing board and scaled their concept into something they could afford to shoot. Casting actors was out of reach due to the demanding conditions, so they cast themselves.There's a massive lesson here in adaptability: as a filmmaker, you have to play the hand you're dealt and make the movie you can make when you can make it. Hopefully, the next one has a bigger budget — but regardless of what you're working with, the movie you can make now will be way better than no movie at all.Micro crews need macro output.An eight-person team meant every crew member wore multiple hats. When hiring for crew, it's common for crew members to expect to stay in their lanes — and that's completely understandable particularly in the context of union filmmaking. But on a micro-budget production, the mindset of “that's not really my job” can be radioactive. Your crew needs to be down for the chaos you're about to unleash.But of course, be fair and be reasonable; pay what you can — either in cash or points — but take the time to find a crew that's truly in it with you and willing to wear multiple hats. But here's the caveat, as the filmmaker, you must always be the hardest-working person on set.Find your audience where they already are.The Dream Eater team built buzz through festivals and the online horror community, most notably TikTok's HorrorTok — a vibrant ecosystem of horror influencers and fans. Thanks to a few key TikTok creators, buzz about the film went viral, which got the attention of Eli Roth.When promoting a film, it's essential to know, understand, and ideally befriend the horror community. HorrorTok played a major role in the success of Dream Eater, and it's a reminder that one of the most effective ways to support your art is by authentically engaging with the people who love the genre as much as you do. Understanding marketing is crucial — but connection is everything.Show NotesMovies and Works MentionedDream EaterAsleep (original concept)The Nightmare (Rodney Ascher documentary)DagonIn the Mouth of MadnessThe Blair Witch ProjectEvil...

Ein Reigen im Sonnenuntergang, ein Steinkreis auf der Waldlichtung, Blumen im Haar, das Ritual beginnt. Seit einigen Jahren beschreibt "Folk-Horror" unseren Grusel vor dem Archaischen. Ist die Natur belebt? Ist die Kultur oppressiv? Kommt das Unterdrückte zurück? Können uns Aufklärung und Vernunft hier draußen nicht mehr helfen? In dieser Genre-Folge sprechen Christian, Christoph und Clara Atlanta über "Folk-Horror" anhand von "Wicker Man", "Kwaidan" & "Blair Witch Project" und fragen sich, was genau eigentlich das Gruselige an der Folklore ist. Außerdem geht es um "Witchfinder General", "Blood on Satan's Claw", "Häxan", "Midsommar", "The Witch", "Longlegs" und "Weapons".

In this Halloween-themed episode of Stuff About Money They Didn't Teach You in School, host Erik Garcia, CFP®, ChFC®, BFA™ is joined by Dr. Matt Morris and first-time guest Stephanie Osborn for a fun and insightful conversation about fear, especially the fear of money. The trio starts by sharing their thoughts on scary movies (and why Erik can't stand them) and explores some New Orleans lingo about what it really means to call someone “scary.” From there, they draw parallels between the things that spook us on screen, and the real-life anxieties people feel around money. As the discussion unfolds, they unpack why money can be so intimidating and how fear often leads to poor, or no financial decisions at all. The group explores the antidote to financial fear: identifying what's truly important to you, Erik's first pillar of financial security. Matt shares personal stories about how that focus has helped him overcome financial stress, while Erik and Stephanie offer practical strategies like setting small goals, celebrating wins, and building fierce accountability. Tune in for a lighthearted, meaningful conversation that'll leave you a little less afraid of your finances—and maybe a little more ready to face your own money monsters. Episode Highlights: Erik kicks off the episode by sharing his fear of scary movies and how “scary” means something different in New Orleans. (03:38) Matt recalls childhood memories of terrifying films like Children of the Corn and Blair Witch Project, explaining why uncertainty makes horror so effective. (04:57) Stephanie admits she used to love scary movies but can't handle them anymore, naming Scream as her favorite from the '90s. (05:48) Erik transitions the conversation to the episode's main topic about how money can be just as scary as horror movies and introduces Stephanie as a first-time guest. (08:00) Matt explains how financial anxiety often stems from the unknown, similar to fear in horror films, and why some people hide from their finances. (09:00) Stephanie cites statistics about Americans feeling anxious and stressed about money, and Matt discusses how confidence and financial literacy help reduce fear. (10:00) Erik and Matt break down three major financial fears: not having enough, fear of debt, and fear of the unknown. (24:00) Matt shares how fear can lead to poor or avoidant financial decisions and explains the importance of awareness and communication in relationships. (27:00) Erik introduces “knowing what's important to you” as the antidote to financial fear and anxiety, connecting values to practical money habits. (36:00) Matt offers personal examples of aligning money with values, like saving for family travel and using insurance for peace of mind. (39:00) Stephanie adds that identifying where fear comes from and checking in regularly can help manage anxiety and prevent “fear paralysis.” (51:00) Erik concludes by encouraging listeners to identify what matters most, create action steps, and check in consistently to keep fear from controlling their finances. (56:00) Key Quotes: “None of us want to be fear driven. We don't want to make decisions just based out of fear. Our fears are frequently misaligned with reality.” - Dr. Matt Morris “I feel like people with money are always concerned about money, and people without money are always concerned about money. They always want to have more or they fear that they don't have enough.” - Stephanie Osborn “When you stop long enough to determine what's most important to you, you can start making conscious decisions to align your money with those things.” - Erik Garcia, CFP®, ChFC®, BFA™ Resources Mentioned: Dr. Matt Morris Matt Morris & Associates Stephanie Osborn Erik Garcia, CFP®, BFA Xavier Angel, CFP®, ChFC, CLTC Plan Wisely Wealth Advisors
For their Audience Interrogation cycle "Close Up" episode, Emilio, Julian and Madeline hit record and explore a genre that they are, admittedly, not as familiar with: Found Footage Films. They are joined by writer/director/teacher/musician Shaun Seneviratne, a fellow cinephile whose been historically lukewarm on Found Footage films, but enthusiastic to dive in and open minded to the ways this filmmaking style can tell unique, cinematic stories. The group selects three representative films from different eras. First, they unpack 1999's 'The Blair Witch Project', considered the codifier of the genre, and note how the film balances a growing sense of unease with naturalistic, improvised acting and dialogue. Then they discuss Patrick Brice's 2014 film 'Creep', its unavoidable connection to mumblecore, and the ways it intentionally plays with long-standing horror tropes. They complete the conversation digging into 'Searching', Aneesh Chaganty's 2018 screen life thriller that concerns itself with the finding of footage, and manages to capture emotion and intention through computer use in surprisingly effective ways. Shaun Seneviratne can be found and followed on the socials at thebrownshaunHis feature film 'Ben and Suzanne: A Reunion in 4 Parts' is streaming now on Fandor and available for rent on digital.

Movie of the Year: 1999The Grand Finale (Part 2)The Road to the FinalsThe bracket heats up in Part Two of the 1999 Movie of the Year Finale, and the Taste Buds—Mike, Ryan, and Greg—are back to call every twist, turn, and cinematic takedown. The stakes are higher, the drama is bigger, and the films are fighting harder than ever for a shot at the crown.The Matchups: Semi-Final ShowdownsOnly four films remain, and the battles are fierce:Election vs. The Blair Witch Project – Tracy Flick's cutthroat ambition goes head-to-head with supernatural terror in the woods. It's satire vs. found footage, politics vs. paranoia.The Limey vs. The Green Mile – Steven Soderbergh's stylish revenge story steps into the ring with Frank Darabont's heartbreaking prison epic. Vengeance clashes with miracles, grit with grace.The Taste Buds don't just break down the movies—they hype them up like a championship bout, with every argument landing like a body slam.Special Awards: Comedic Performance, On-Screen Duo & Biggest ShitheadAs if the semi-finals weren't enough, the Taste Buds also reveal the winners of three special 1999 honors:Best Comedic PerformanceBest On-Screen DuoBiggest ShitheadThe nominees are under wraps, but the winners will spark laughs, debates, and maybe even outrage.Conclusion: The Fight Isn't Over YetThe road to the 1999 Movie of the Year crown gets narrower, but the drama only intensifies. Will Election's political claws cut down the terror of The Blair Witch Project? Can The Limey's revenge stand tall against The Green Mile's miracles?

1999 was a great year for movies. Almost too great. It didn't help that I found myself so busy with work that my focus on film couldn't be what it used to be. So while I am a big fan of “The Iron Giant,” I was also one of those people who didn't go to see it in the theater and contributed to its “flop” status. That summer was stacked with films like “The Sixth Sense” and “The Blair Witch Project,” and it was easy for something quieter and more thoughtful to get lost. While that is bad, the good news is that I was also one of the people who took to it on home video and picked it up on DVD as soon as it was available. I can still remember watching it for the first time at home and being floored by how much heart it had. I start the episode talking about my experiences with the film before moving onto the film itself. I discuss the people who made the film, its source material, other adaptations, the people who lent their voices to the film, its reception, music, and much more. It's worth noting that the director, Brad Bird, would later go on to make “The Incredibles” and “Ratatouille,” which shows just how much talent was already on display in this debut. Unfortunately, Warner Bros. had no idea how to market the film at the time, which didn't help its chances at the box office. The Iron Giant has become a cult hit and is well loved, but it's not enough. A surprising number of people have never seen the film, and I think that's a shame. It's a thoughtful film, filled with wonder and spectacle, that will capture the imagination of kids and adults alike. Its story of fear, empathy, and the power of choice feels even more relevant today. So if you haven't seen it, prepare to fall in love with a giant robot.
In this revisited episode we go back to cover a film that impacted cinema in a very unique way. We have covered this way back but long before Marc joined the show Scott's opinions are well known on this film while Marc could be a wildcard here. A deep dive into the film, the behind the scenes awaits along with a game for you all to play along with and a lot of voicemails from listeners too. This episode is possibly one of the most information packed episodes we have done in recent memory.
Send us a textIn 1976 a group of friends meet in the desert to record a podcast. There they stumble upon an abandoned town called Outcast, or maybe it was Conquest, we're not sure. But they are not alone. A family of masked psychopaths have claimed the town as their own and are hell bent on destroying the recording so no one can ever listen. On Episode 684 of Trick or Treat Radio we discuss the 70s-styled horror film Brute 1976 from director Marcel Walz! We also talk about why backwoods slashers just don't work the way they used to, the double standard of streaming services censoring art, and why this month will be a Shemptember to Remember!

Of all the flavors of horror, few are as dreadful as that of being lost in the wilderness. In this episode, JF and Phil revisit The Blair Witch Project, the classic 1999 found-footage film that inspired a thousand imitators. What makes this film so gripping, they argue, is the way it lingers over the subtle stages of disorientation in a hostile place, from blithe denial to devastating gnosis. The Blair Witch Project isn't a ghost story so much as a work of cosmic horror. Ultimately, the woods themselves—vast, indifferent, inescapable—are the monster. Support Weird Studies on Patreon.

It's been nearly 30 years since The Blair Witch Project (1999) terrorized film audiences with the inaugural "found footage" film. The film's logline: Three film students vanish after traveling into a Maryland forest to film a documentary on the local Blair Witch legend, leaving only their footage behind.The Blair Witch Project was heavily marketed as a true story, employing a unique viral marketing campaign to blur the lines between fiction and reality. This strategy included a fake documentary on the Sci-Fi channel, fake missing person flyers, a website with fabricated evidence, and fake police reports. Fortunately, no actors were murdered or maimed in the making of the film. One of the "survivors" joins us on this episode -- actor Michael C. Williams.Also joining us is fellow thespian, filmmaker, nature wanderlust and sometimes co-host, Cuyle Carvin.$10 Afraid of Nothing merch - and more - at the Afraid of Nothing Shopify store.

Wheel of Doom Setup: Hyping up the wheel with 60 videos and our goal to hit a high score. 0:15:00 - 0:30:00 - The Blair Witch Project: A Psychological Experiment? The first spin lands on a video about The Blair Witch Project, revealing its production as a real-life psychological experiment. We dive into how the filmmakers pushed actors to their limits with minimal scripting, GPS coordinates, and intentional deprivation to capture genuine fear. This sparks a discussion about the ethics of such filmmaking and its impact on the found footage genre. Blair Witch's Unconventional Filming: Actors were left in the woods, sleep-deprived, and scared by directors to elicit real reactions. Ethical Debate: Was this genius or borderline torture? We ponder if we'd sign up for such a project. Cultural Impact: The film's viral marketing and low-budget success (made for $60,000, grossed $250 million) redefined horror. 0:30:00 - 0:45:00 - Flat Earth Theories and the Amazon River The wheel spins to a video claiming the Amazon River's flow challenges the globe Earth model, suggesting a flat plane of existence. We react with a mix of intrigue and skepticism, noting the video's disclaimer that it's for “entertainment purposes only.” This leads to a broader discussion about conspiracy theories and their presentation online. Amazon River and Flat Earth: The video argues the river's unidirectional flow defies a globe's curvature, implying a flat Earth. Skepticism and Cop-Outs: We criticize the “entertainment only” disclaimer as a way to dodge accountability. Conspiracy Culture: Reflecting on how platforms like TikTok shape the spread of such theories. 0:45:00 - 1:00:00 - The Matrix and Brain Symbolism Another spin brings us to a video linking The Matrix to brain science, suggesting Neo's journey represents moving from the reptilian brain to the neocortex. We explore this metaphor for consciousness and control, touching on Freemasonry and the film's deeper meanings. We also briefly discuss movie recommendations for Alistair Crowley, favoring Fantastic Four over the new Superman. Matrix Symbolism: Neo's plug-in at the neck symbolizes the reptilian brain, while his awakening reflects the neocortex and higher consciousness. Freemasonry Connection: The video ties brain regions to Masonic degrees, sparking curiosity about hidden meanings. Movie Talk: We debate Superman's slapstick tone versus Fantastic Four's stronger reception. 1:00:00 - 1:15:00 - Sam's Corner: Funny and Emotional Clips In Sam's Corner, we share handpicked videos, starting with a hilarious clip of a kid caught with a hooker, claiming he's going to marry her to dodge trouble. We then get emotional watching a tribute to Hulk Hogan, reflecting on his legacy despite past controversies, including a fake voiceover clip of him making offensive remarks. Hooker Mishap: A kid's desperate excuse that he's marrying a hooker cracks us up. Hulk Hogan Tribute: A heartfelt video from The Rock about Hogan's wrestling legacy, contrasted with a fake clip highlighting his controversial past. Nostalgia and Wrestling: We reminisce about our love for pro wrestling and Hogan's iconic moves. 1:15:00 - 1:34:52 - Conspiracy Deep Dive and Bizarre News The final segment is a whirlwind of conspiracy and oddities. We discuss a video linking Sabrina Carpenter to occult symbolism in Rosemary's Baby and Eyes Wide Shut, a creepy ad for glowing smart implants, and a disturbing story about a serial butt sniffer arrested in California. We wrap up with plugs for our projects and a nod to the Doomers. Sabrina Carpenter Conspiracy: Connections to Lucifer quotes, Rosemary's Baby fonts, and Eyes Wide Shut suggest Hollywood occult ties. Smart Implants: A futuristic ad for glowing implants raises cyborg concerns, with a humorous take on glowing body parts. Serial Butt Sniffer: A repeat offender's arrests at Walmart and Nordstrom spark a mix of humor and unease about bizarre crimes.

Tracy and Jerry talk about the inspiration behind the Blair Witch Project, Moll Dyer from Maryland. Jason and Sam from Not Alone Podcast join us to talk about El Chupacabra and Hy Brasil.
This week, we embed ourselves deep inside the myth, the legend, the cautionary tale that is Fire Island. Our mission? To uncover the truth behind the infamous Belvedere Hotel, an all-nude, men-only boarding house perched just beyond the bounds of good judgment. What begins as an overnight getaway quickly spirals into blackouts at drag brunch, fighting for our lives in the Meat Rack, and late-night cruising that felt more like The Blair Witch Project than a vacation. Join us as we investigate the intersection of queerness, liberation, and public sex, one towel at a time.
