Hello, Horror Fans!This week on The Horrorcraft Podcast, Cass and Kylee are joined by a truly legendary guest—David Weiner, writer/director of the In Search of Darkness documentary series. We're diving headfirst into his latest and final installment: In Search of Darkness: 1995–1999, a celebration of the late-'90s scream era that changed horror forever.We chat with David about the rise of meta-horror, the impact of films like Scream, The Craft, and The Blair Witch Project, and how this documentary captures the cultural shift that redefined what it meant to be scared. From Blockbuster nostalgia to behind-the-scenes insight, this is a must-listen for any horror head.✨ Pre-orders for In Search of Darkness: 1995–1999 are open now through June 9 at 90shorrordoc.com — get your name in the credits and grab all the killer collector's items before they vanish into the fog.

This week on Friday Flix, we're getting spooky with The Blair Witch Project—the low-budget horror film that changed the genre forever. We break down how this 1999 cult classic used found footage, viral marketing, and minimalism to terrify a generation. Was it real? Why did it feel so raw? And how did a movie with no visible monster become one of the most influential horror films of all time?Join us as we hike deep into the Maryland woods (figuratively, of course), unpack the film's legacy, and debate whether it still holds up today—or if it's just a product of its time.

Movie of the Year: 19991999 Returns!96 Movies Enter, 16 Will SurviveThe Year Was 1999. Everyone Had a Discman. And Movies? Absolute Bangers.Back when the Taste Buds first covered the films of 1999 on Movie of the Year, they were young, naïve, and only picked eight movies. Eight! That's adorable.Now they're older, wiser, and full of regret—so they're returning to give one of the greatest years in movie history the full 16-slot bracket it deserves. That means eight more movies, a new perspective, and a much deeper dive.This premiere episode is where it all begins: they take 96 of the most iconic, beloved, and deeply weird movies of 1999, and start hacking our way down to the Sweet 16. Expect heartbreak. Expect joy. Expect someone to irrationally defend The Haunting like their life depends on it.In This Episode:The full list of 96 movies—from cult classics to forgotten flopsNostalgic tangents about Y2K, dial-up, and Taco Bell commercialsHeated debates about what counts as “Movie of the Year–worthy”Emotional breakdowns over the ones we had to cutThe 16 movies that will define the season—revealedWhy 1999?Because it gave us The Matrix, Fight Club, The Blair Witch Project, Being John Malkovich, 10 Things I Hate About You, and like 30 more that would be any other year's #1. It was the year movies peaked, and we're finally giving it the coverage it deserves—with twice the movies and at least three times the yelling.Tell Us We're Wrong:You definitely have opinions. Good.Hit us up on Instagram @yourpopfilter, or email us at popfilterco@gmail and let us know which movies should have made the cut, which ones absolutely shouldn't have, and how mad you are that we even considered Inspector Gadget.Don't Miss a Single Episode:Make sure you subscribe, rate, and review wherever you get your podcasts.

Send us a textThe Black Metal perspective makes a long overdue debut to the Nordic Sound in episode 49 with the inimitable Thomas Eriksen (Mork, Udåd). Not only has Thomas made quite the name for himself as the mind behind Mork, but kept himself and others entertained during COVID running his own Black Metal podcast, the "Thomas Eriksen Podcast" which featured some in depth conversations with big names in Norwegian Black Metal. Join us as Thomas takes us through what the style means to him, his recent work on Mork's seventh album "Syv", and my favorite, his haunting experimental project Udåd.Thomas's work has captivated me over the last few years as I've explored his impressive discography defined by "urkraft", and a warm, organic approach to black metal inspired by rock production styles from the 60s and 70s. "Udåd" sealed the deal for me with its bleak and skeletal approach to a primitive black metal sound, reminding one of the atmosphere of films like the Blair Witch Project. If you haven't yet, I do sincerely hope you check out Thomas's music.Patreon.com/nordicsound0:00 Intro1:47 Why Black Metal?19:09 The Thomas Eriksen Podcast32:57 Mork56:16 Udåd1:21:19 Midgardsblot1:25:18 Black Metal Today1:32:43 Closing ThoughtsSupport the showThe Nordic Sound is supported by its patrons over on Patreon.com/nordicsoundThe Nordic Sound is supported by its patrons:GeorgeBetsCarrieGenLeighMikeCindyClaytonDrakeEricJamieJuliaMaryMichaelMichaelSeanSimonTony

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."

Don't go camping in the woods! Nothing good happens there!

Hardware (1990), Death Machine (1994), and Event Horizon (1997) The 1990s are often thought of as a decade of dread for horror fans—not because of what was on the screen, but because nothing good supposedly came out of it. Or at least, that's the typical response. But as we continue down the path to Discover the Horror, we're starting to realize that what we remember about the past isn't always accurate—whether it's based on our own memories or what we were told. When you really dig into those ten years, there's actually a lot of great stuff that came out—even just here in the U.S. And when you look beyond to international horror, it gets even better. Browse through the list and you're bound to say, “Oh yeah, I forgot about that one.” In this episode, we decided to tackle that decade and picked three titles that, as it turns out, share some very similar themes. And we think all three are well worth watching. Films mentioned in this episode: Alien (1979), Aliens (1986), Batman Returns (1992), The Blair Witch Project (1999), The Boneyard (1991), Braindead (1992), Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992), Candyman (1992), Cronos (1992), Day of the Dead (1985), Death Machine (1994), Dellamorte Dellamore (1994), The Descent (2005), Dr. Giggles (1992), Dust Devil (1992), Event Horizon (1997), Evil Dead 2 (1987), The Exorcist (1973), Faces of Death (1978), Freeway (1996), Goodfellas (1990), Godzilla (1998), Gravity (2013), Halloween (1978), Halloween H20 (1998), Hardware (1990), Hellraiser (1987), Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (1992), High Tension (2003), I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997), In the Mouth of Madness (1994), Judge Dredd (1995), Jurassic Park (1993), Lord of Illusion (1995), Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (1994), Meet the Feebles (1989), Mimic (1997), Misery (1990), The Mummy (1999), Nightbreed (1990), Pulp Fiction (1994), The Princess Bride (1987), Reign of Fire (2002), The Resurrected (1991), Return of the Living Dead (1985), Return to Splatter Farm (2020), Ringu (1998), Scream (1996), Scream 2 (1997), The Silence of the Lambs (1991), Star Wars (1977), Thelma & Louise (1991), The Thing (1982), Valentine (2001), Warning Sign (1985), Willow (1988)

Have you ever heard of a forbidden town in Conneticut? Apparently Dudleytown has been around for centuries. But due to a string of unexplained disasters, the town is completey forbidden (and illegal) to enter. Some say its due to a Native American curse that was put on the land itself. Some say its due to a curse that followed the founders of the town from England from an execution dating back to Henry VII. Some say its due to the witch trials that took place all around the town in the 1600s. The more we learn about this dark forboding place, the more questions arise.

In this twenty-eighth installment of fictional horror written and narrated by Dan Cummins.... we head to 1989 and explore, along with the pawn shop owner who bought the camera that contained it, a tape of some chilling home video footage of two film students investigating an urban legend set inside a local abandoned insane asylum.This episode was scored by Logan Keith.

Along with Friend of the Show Patrick Perot (the 10 Things I Hate About You episode, the Blair Witch Project episode, Rural Route Nine), Matt will go through each episode of The Twilight Zone—one episode per podcast—in chronological order. And you can try out that podcast now: The Sign Post Up Ahead. To catch episodes 2 and 3 of The Sign Post Up Ahead, you can subscribe to the show: Apple Podcast: https://bit.ly/3DA3Z3c  Spotify: https://bit.ly/4kEEvlM  YouTube: https://youtube.com/@thesignpostupahead  In the debut episode of the podcast, Matt and Patrick go through the very first episode of The Twilight Zone: "Where Is Everybody?" An amnesiac wanders through a town, unable to find a single human being, but always feeling like somebody is just out of reach. Creepy! How well does this episode serve as an introduction to The Twilight Zone? How well does it stand on its own? And how much does it hold up now?  Plus, there's a lot of talk about the space race, the Cold War, and America's obsession with going to the moon. "Where Is Everybody" originally aired October 2, 1959; directed by Robert Stevens; written by Rod Serling; starring Earl Holliman. 

 Apologies for the delay in returning from mid season break. As Dan's wrestling schedule gets busier, these delays are sometimes inevitable. We hope you enjoy the rest of the season.This week we look at the movie that started the found footage craze and personal stories from our hosts about their own experiences with the hype when the film came out. We're talking The Blair Witch Project! Plus musical guest Aaron Romero.

The future ain't what it used to be. Is nostalgia revitalizing or killing 21st-century culture? The concept of nostalgia has seeped into almost all aspects of modern-day media, none more so than horror culture and its borderlands of Hauntology, Folk Horror, and found footage film. From film and TV franchises building endlessly on past glories, to musicians whose work now spans decades, modern media borrows heavily from the past. Ghost of an Idea: Hauntology, Folk Horror, and the Spectre of Nostalgia examines the use and effect of nostalgia in the Horror and Hauntological realms. It asks why these genres hold such a fascination in popular culture, often inspiring devoted fanbases. From Candyman to The Blair Witch Project, and Dark Shadows to American Horror Story, are the folk horror and found footage phenomena significant artistic responses to political, social, and economic conditions, or simply an aesthetic rebranding of what has come before? How has nostalgia become linked to other concepts (psychogeography, residual haunting) to influence Hauntological music such as Boards of Canada, The Rowan Amber Mill, Hawksmoor, or The Caretaker? What can the 'urban wyrd' or faux horror footage tell us about our idealized past? And how will these cultures of nostalgia shape the future? Combining the author's analysis with first-hand accounts of fans and creators, this book offers a critical analysis of our cultural quest to recognize, resurrect, and lay to rest the ghosts of past and present, also summoning up those spectres that may haunt the future.

Almost four months after becoming a shock box office hit, The Blair Witch Project still has a stranglehold on culture, if we want to be generous and use that term to describe Dawson's Creek. The core four are reading The Crucible in English class, and naturally Dawson decided that he's too special to do assignments as assigned; he's convinced Principal Green -- who's teaching their class to free Mitch up for football stuff, presumably -- to let him make a documentary about a local witch legend. ("Isn't The Crucible kind of...not really about the Salem witch trials?" We'll get into it.) He'd already arranged to have Pacey and Jen "help" so that they could also blow off their papers, and when a desperate Joey runs into the video store to rent The Crucible because she's run out of time to read the play AND the last copy is gone, Dawson belatedly remembers she exists and offers to let her in on the scheme too. On the island, the kids ignore warnings not to get lost in the woods or stay past dark. Joey and Dawson also ignore good taste and make the story of the one accused witch whose body was never found, and whose dalliance with her true love led to her conviction in the first place, into a stand-in for their own stupid relationship problems. Meanwhile, Jen finds a love spell in a gift shop book and decides to try it out on Pacey, for sport. Back home, Andie lets the tiny amount of power Principal Green granted her on the student disciplinary committee go straight to her head, and her citation-writing hand.

Summary: 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 first person is a narrative style as old as storytelling itself—one that, at its best, allows us to experience the world through another person's eyes. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz trace how the technique has been used across mediums throughout history. They discuss the ways in which fiction writers have played with the unstable triangulation between author, reader, and narrator, as in Vladimir Nabokov's “Lolita” and Bret Easton Ellis's “American Psycho,” a book that adopts the perspective of a serial killer, and whose publication provoked public outcry. RaMell Ross's “Nickel Boys”—an adaptation of Colson Whitehead's 2019 novel—is a bold new attempt to deploy the first person onscreen. The film points to a larger question about the bounds of narrative, and of selfhood: Can we ever truly occupy someone else's point of view? “The answer, in large part, is no,” Cunningham says. “But that impossibility is, for me, the actual promise: not the promise of a final mind meld but a confrontation, a negotiation with the fact that our perspectives really are our own.”Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“Nickel Boys” (2024)“The Nickel Boys,” by Colson Whitehead“Lolita,” by Vladimir Nabokov“Meet the Director Who Reinvented the Act of Seeing,” by Salamishah Tillet (The New York Times)“Great Books Don't Make Great Films, but ‘Nickel Boys' Is a Glorious Exception,” by Richard Brody (The New Yorker)“Lady in the Lake” (1947)“Dark Passage” (1947)“Enter the Void” (2010)“The Blair Witch Project” (1999)Doom (1993)“The Berlin Stories,” by Christopher Isherwood“American Psycho,” by Bret Easton Ellis“The Adventures of Augie March,” by Saul Bellow“Why Did I Stop Loving My Cat When I Had a Baby?” by Anonymous (The Cut)“Harmony and Dissonance: Orphism in Paris, 1910-1930” at the Guggenheim MuseumNew episodes drop every Thursday.

In 1999, this week's guest starred in one of the most financially successful films of all time, but the circumstances around the making and marketing of Blair Witch Project meant that her incredible accomplishment actually came with a lot of very steep downsides.  A story that's briefly chronicled in her memoir: Growgirl: The Blossoming of an Unlikely Outlaw… by Heather Donahue (now known as Rei Hance). On paper, it certainly sounds like a dream come true. You star in a micro budget movie shot for just $60,000 that becomes a $250 million box office smash. But when her star turn struck gold, Rei was both the face of the franchise and fully hidden from sight. It's a wild story, even by show business standards, but Rei and I talked almost exclusively about weed. Because after she left Hollywood behind, she ended up spending a few years in a place she very lovingly called Nuggettown, a Northern California medical cannabis farm back in the beautiful gray market days of the early 2000s.  Revisiting those days more than twenty years later filled me with a beautiful flush of nostalgia cut with a bit existential longing. It was a wonderful conversation and I'm excited to share it with you as our first great moment in of 2025. PATREON Please support Great Moments in Weed HIstory on Patreon.

Need a break from political programming? Well, today we have a special treat: It's The Free Press's scary movie Halloween special! It's that time of year: changing leaves, pumpkin spice lattes, animal costumes with sex appeal and, of course, gory, bloody, nightmare-inducing horror movies. We all remember the first horror movie that we were allowed to watch—or maybe that we weren't allowed to watch, but saw anyway: Silence of the Lambs, Rosemary's Baby, The Exorcist, The Blair Witch Project, Jaws, Carrie, Halloween, or The Shining. For today's host Suzy Weiss, it was 20 minutes of the movie It—the TV miniseries from 1990, not the 2017 remake. Suzy remembers seeing Pennywise the Clown on the screen and thinking, This will take me years to get over. She still sometimes checks the drain! Year after year, horror movies are consistently profitable—more so than dramas—but they are snubbed when it comes to award shows and critical acclaim. But here at The Free Press, we value and love horror, so much that we've gathered our scariest FP writers—Suzy Weiss, River Page, and Kat Rosenfield—to analyze four new horror movies. River, Kat, and Suzy will review MaXXXine, set in grimy and glamorous 1980s Hollywood, about a night killer who targets a porn star who herself is targeting big-screen stardom. Apartment 7A, a prequel to Rosemary's Baby, about a woman taken in by an unassuming family. Longlegs, a serial killer story about an FBI agent trying to crack the case. And The Substance, about a woman who takes the latest anti-aging elixir, but at a harrowing cost. They talk about what they loved, what they hated, and how they think each movie relates to our current social ills. We'll also note this episode has spoilers, so let this be a warning!
