When we discovered that Zack Snyder and James Gunn, the two titans of DC, were both credited on the 2004 remake of George Romero's Dawn of the Dead, we just had to investigate. And then when we noticed that the creator of the Final Destination franchise had also been partly responsible for the remake of follow-up Day of the Dead four years later, we decided to watch that one too.

Before Matt officially joined the show as a co-host he was invited on as guest to talk about one of his favourite movies of all time, ‘Swingers'. Now returning in an official capacity to the ToB Film Club, he brings with him another film from his top-3, another comedy, ‘Kingpin'. A Farrelly brothers film that followed up their smash hit breakout, ‘Dumb and Dumber', and you can see the through lines. Like ‘Dumb and Dumber' we follow two guys who are down on their luck as they head out on the road where chaos and hilarity ensue. Unfortunately it wasn't the hit they hoped despite a killer cast, including legends Bill Murray, Randy Quaid and Woody Harrelson and as a result it didn't leave as large of a cultural footprint as some of the other Farrelly brothers films from this era. It's been nearly 30 years so now seems as good a time as any to revisit this sleeper and see what everyone was missing back then. Next Month: We seem to be unable to escape the 90's, and why would we want to when there's still so much to see! For November we take a look at a proto-Matrix movie by Alex Proyas - things get weird (probably) in the 1998 film ‘Dark City'.

After an extended hiatus, ToB returns with a fresh voice on the second chair. Julian is joined by long-time friend of the show, Matt Tworek. We spend this first episode of the "new" ToB getting to know him and setting up what else is to come. Sure, Matt's been on the show before, covering 1 of his top 3 favourite movies 'Swingers'. But the real question remains... do Matt and Julian's tastes align? Well we put this to the test by having Julian pitch all the movies he's been watching over the last year to Matt to see which ones pique his interest. Plus, look forward to our next Film Club - which will round out 2 out of 3 of Matt's favourites, as we cover a Farrelly brothers classic from the 90's, 'Kingpin'.

Meanwhile, we catch up with Adjani Salmon for the second series of Dreaming Whilst Black on BBC3 (1:38:38), and delve into ecclesiastical crime solving with Murder Before Evensong on Channel 5 (1:48:45). All that, and a labyrinthine discussion fo Boydy's bedtime habits, as well as a new foray into the world of Steph's true crime watchlist as we prepare for Kay's return later this week.

The White Lotus star is back on British screens this month in ‘Film Club'—a BBC rom com that celebrates the healing power of love and, of course, movies. Wood has co-written the series too, and she sits down with Simon to unpack it. She shares what her writing debut has taught her, how she's channeling the spirit of classic rom coms and bringing back “neurotic chatterboxes falling in love”. We might even have a scoop on her next big writing project...     Plus Mark reviews the week's most exciting cinema releases. First up, ‘The Smashing Machine'—Benny Safdie's UFC fighter biopic starring The Rock as you've never seen him before. Plus, the much-anticipated directorial debut from Harris Dickison—who you'll know from ‘Triangle of Sadness', ‘Scrapper', ‘Babygirl' and more. His social realist tale ‘Urchin' stars Frank Dillane as the homeless Mike—and it looks an indie treat. Last but not least, another nail-biter from Kathryn Bigelow, ‘A House of Dynamite', which charts the terrifying moments following a nuclear missile launch headed towards the US.

Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcastProud members of the Dark Cast Network.CLICK HERE TO COMPLETE THE THREE RAVENS ACAST SURVEY - PLEASE DO!

We're in that strange nether-period, when the lights are drawing low and a chill is in the air. However, it's still slightly too early to jump feet first into Halloween... So this time round, let me show you around two chilly tales that might keep your inner ghoul satisfied until Spooktober arrives! First of all, a shadowy, supernaturally-tinged murder mystery with a very famous pair of investigators, and following that, a death note arrives for a very bad man in the shape of a mysterious doll...
