Keeper. Join Morris and Rick as they discuss the latest offering from Osgood Perkins. Is this dark fairytale a story of happily ever after, or is the creepy icing on the cake really a tale of unhappily never lasting?

Send us a Question!MOVIE DISCUSSION: Kathryn joins Melvin to discuss Osgood Perkins' second movie of 2025, Keeper! Has Perkins created another commercially accessible psychological-horror success, or has he returned to his undeniably divisive slow-burn roots? And is Keeper another one of his female-led soft-feminist tales? Tune in and find out! Topics: Editor's Note: No Patreon Exclusive discussion! But, I do intend to trim this episode down from its original 1:44:01 length, so if you want to hear the UNCUT version, tune in on Patreon here!Because the trailers didn't seem representative of the final product, Melvin pitches the movie a little differently by explaining what the movie actually is.Kathryn and Melvin get the impression that Osgood Perkins isn't so much interested in characters as he is the film as a whole, and thus his work is often vibes-heavy.Osgood Perkins, from Melvin's perspective, creates dense films that often appear simple.Kathryn felt the overly-exposited third-act somewhat muddled the film.Talking about some recurrent visuals and motifs, like the water and the dream sequences.Specifically talking about what Melvin is calling the "Mini Minka" scene.Discussing the line, "We are your children and all the women that came before you."Recommendations: The Devil You Know with Sarah Marshall (Podcast)Occult (2009) (Movie)Support the showSupport on Patreon for Unique Perks!

On Night 12 of our haunted countdown, we dive into the bleak, bone-chilling world of Robert Eggers' The Witch — a slow-burn folk horror masterpiece steeped in historical dread, religious paranoia, and a talking goat named Black Phillip. Join Tim and Johnathan, along with special guest filmmaker Adam Gall, as they break down this 2015 modern classic. We dig into the film's Puritanical roots, the real history behind the witch trials, and why Anya Taylor-Joy's debut as Thomasin still haunts us nearly a decade later.

It's Night 10 of 13 Nights of Halloween, and we're heading to the eerie, windswept fields of Iceland for one of the strangest entries in modern folk horror: Lamb (2021). Directed by Valdimar Jóhannsson and starring Noomi Rapace, this slow-burn A24 film blends rural isolation, ancient superstition, and deep emotional grief—with a sheep-headed child at the center of it all. Is it horror? Is it a tragedy? Is it just really, really boring? We're diving in. Join Tim and Johnathan as they discuss the production, symbolism, awards buzz, and why Lamb has become one of the most polarizing movies in recent folk horror.

What would you sacrifice for the perfect vintage? Can ancient pagan rituals and biodynamic winemaking create something truly extraordinary—or terrifying? In this conversation from the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast with Natalie Maclean, award-winning author J.F. Penn discusses the inspiration for her folk horror novel Blood Vintage, set in the vineyards of Somerset, England. We explore […] The post Blood, Wine, And Sacrifice: Folk Horror Inspired By England's Biodynamic Vineyards With J.F. Penn And Natalie MacLean appeared first on Books And Travel.

Spooky cinema is at an all-time commercial peak, and in recent years, folk horror -- a subgenre of horror focusing on nature, isolation and paranoia -- has taken over the mainstream. Its frights are derived from the scariest villain of all: ourselves. But the genre isn't new. So why are these stories resonating with so many horror fans right now?

In part 2 of our celebration of Folk Horror, Shawn, Travis, Joey, and Todd gather to discuss post-2000 Folk Horror movies and their resurgence in popularity.

The team have unearthed something terrible under the cabbages in the Welcome To Horror allotment, so it's time for “Blood On Satan's Claw”. A film in which Mr Kipling leads exceedingly angry mobs; The Master gets in trouble for playing with his snake in the woods; and Simon Williams receives the worst kind of handjob. Part of the Unholy Trinity of Folk Horror, “Blood on Satan's Claw” is the only one that features the genuinely supernatural. Originally conceived as a kind of anthology, those roots still show, but the decision to make it one tale was the correct one. Combining some of the most picturesque and beautiful imagery with some of the cruelest and horrific events to befall a seemingly innocent community; this is no mere Hammer knock-off. A marvellous script and a cast all bringing their best make for a disturbing glimpse of festering corruption, with our only hope being the intervention of harsh authoritarian powers seemingly as nasty and uncaring as the evil they confront. Watch (or re-watch) to avoid spoilers and join us.

Welcome back to Geekz 31 Days of Horror! Tonight, we travel to the eerie shores of Summerisle to uncover the haunting mystery of The Wicker Man (1973) — one of the most influential and chilling folk horror films ever made. When Sergeant Howie (Edward Woodward) arrives on a remote Scottish island to investigate the disappearance of a young girl, he finds a community deeply devoted to pagan rituals and ancient fertility traditions. But as his search leads him deeper into the island's beliefs — and to the charismatic Lord Summerisle (Christopher Lee) — the line between faith, fear, and fanaticism blurs… until the shocking and unforgettable ending that redefined horror cinema.

On this episode, once again being in spirit of Halloween, we discuss our favorite folk horror movies! Panel: Kristin Battestella, Megan Kearns Visit insessionfilm.com for merch and more! Thanks for listening and be sure to subscribe! Become an ISF VIP today to get exclusive bonus content!

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".

"They are bad people. They should suffer." For Episode 380, Thomas and Brandon continue their discussion of Folk Horror movies by talking about Ben Wheatley and his movie KILL LIST. Listen as they discuss Wheatley's career, what the film's original setting was, how the cast got involved in the writing process of the film, the movie's unique structure, why Ben Wheatley cut out significant moments of the film, and much more!

Wenn ein Anime Fan den anderen fragt: “Hey, hast du MONONOKE gesehen?” werden 9 von 10 den STUDIO GHIBLI Klassiker PRINZESSIN MONONOKE meinen. Doch darum geht es heute nicht. Auf Netflix sind die ersten beiden Filme der MONONOKE-Trilogie erschienen, welche wiederum eine Fortsetzung der MONONOKE Serie von 2007 sind. Diese Serie ist wiederum ein Spin-Off der AYAKASHI: SAMURAI HORROR TALES Anthologie, aber wir wollen euch ja nicht verwirren!Deshalb erklären euch Sophia und René Step-by-Step, was es über die Filme und Ihre Serie zu wissen gibt, was ein MONONOKE eigentlich ist in der japanischen Mythologie und Folklore und wieso wir es hier mal mit einer ganz anderen Art von Horror zutun haben. Wer also sehr berauschenden Animationen und Bildern nicht abgeneigt ist und auch mal etwas gefordert werden möchte von einem Film, sollte die aktuelle Episode von RUHE IM SAAL nicht verpassen!——

In this episode, Tim and Johnathan dive into the grim, atmospheric world of Pumpkinhead (1988) and welcome special guest Aaron from A&B Horror to break down why this revenge-driven creature feature perfectly fits our Folk Horror theme. From rural curses to supernatural justice, we explore the movie's eerie mood, practical effects, and lasting impact on horror fans.

It's Night 2 of our 13 Nights of Halloween: Folk Horror Edition, and tonight we're burning bright with the one that started it all—The Wicker Man (1973).

What makes folk horror so unsettling? This episode maps the weird woods: isolated settings, old customs that refuse to die, and the outsider who realizes too late they can't leave. Shereen arrives a skeptic; Meaghan leads the tour—through forests, farmlands, and edge-of-the-map towns where tradition presses against modern life.We unpack how setting becomes a character, why slow dread beats jump scares, and how folk horror pits the past against the present. We also explore how the subgenre is evolving—think eco-anxieties and even tech-resistant towns—and share a stack of must-reads and must-watches that capture the vibe: Brom's Slewfoot, Stephen Graham Jones's The Only Good Indians, A.M. Shine's The Watchers, plus The Wicker Man and The Village. If you've ever walked into a place that felt “off” for reasons you couldn't name, this one's for you.

As a summer replacement for our regular episode: a round-up of non-English-language Folk-Horror films (here as audio but also available as video) The presentation was created by Mr. Ridenour's for the Rural Gothic conference hosted by The Folklore Podcast on 9/26/2020. The focus is on European folk-horror films, including Russian productions, and a few especially interesting Turkish films are also highlighted. It's by no means comprehensive and naturally only  includes films made in 2020 or earlier. You'll hear the audio component if you continue listening here, but to watch the trailers, go to the Bone and Sickle YouTube channel (here: https://youtu.be/fJm6hgzaPV4). Or just Google “YouTube” and “Bone and Sickle” and you'll find "International Folk-Horror Films" as a video. These are the films discussed (English titles).

It's time for one of those huge episodes. Well, it's a three parter anyways. 1970 was, I would say a less than average  year for horror movies. But those top slots are so strong it's unreal. But, what do I think was the very greatest horror movie that came out during 1970? Well, here we have the top 5. The worst 10. A slew of also rans, a few J&B whiskey's and a 4 hour running time. This is 1970, A Year In Horror. It's a pretty long journey this one, part 1 of 3 in fact. I am going to give you the time codes below so if you don't want spoilers then, please, avert your eyes.0.29  - And Soon the Darkness (w/ Miranda Corcoran)40.55 - The Vampire Doll45.45 - The Forbidden Photos of a Lady Above Suspicion 49.54 - Robin Redbreast54.29 - Outro You can now support A Year in Horror via the Patreon.Theme Music by Max Newton & Lucy Foster.Email the podcast at ayearinhorror@gmail.comFollow me on Instagram.Follow me on Letterboxd.

We love Mel Brooks. He is responsible for some of the funniest movies of all time. Young Frankenstein is also one of the best adaptations the Mary Shelley classic ever made. So, we were both excited to hear about the sequel to Spaceballs. We rank our favorite movies from Brooks and why Spaceballs once disappointed us.We are also huge fans of Fright Night. While there was a great remake in the early 2010s, you just do not hear enough about it. Despite having one of horror's most iconic lines, it does not get that much love. This week, we have two bits of news; one is concrete; one is its rumored connection to one of the most infamous murders of all time.This year for Pride Month we are discussing The Last Thing Mary Saw. It is a great bit of folk horror that is frightening, atmospheric, and filled with great characters. The mystery is engaging and the performances are top notch. It also treats its queer subject matter with a sensitivity that is not seen enough.The first six months just whooshed by and we have a lot to discuss. We cover a wide range of topics. Why do we sometimes consider no longer reviewing documentaries? The good and bad of AI in film. More folk horror, a slasher, and a reverse exorcism all enter our conversation about 2025's first six months. Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network.

Their own games often combine a poetic sensibility, spooky themes, high emotion, and light mechanics. They've contributed to games like Girl by Moonlight published by Evil Hat and Koriko and The Slow Knife by Mouse House Press. Today, we're talking about two of their games that were crowdfunded in a double-barrel campaign with Possum Creek Games in late 2023. Grand Guignol, a second version of their game of queer gothic horror, and Harvest, a brand new folk horror set on some unnamed British isle. Harvest / Grand Guignol on Backerkit: https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/jay-dragon/grand-guignol-harvest Wild Wood Games on itch: https://gamesfromthewildwood.itch.io/harvest  Luke Jordan on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/wildwoodsgames.bsky.social Show Notes:The Picture of Dorian GrayDraculaJekyll and HydeFrankensteinPenny DreadfulThe Wickerman The Apostle (2018)Blood on Satan's ClawWitchfinder GeneralWoodlands Dark and Days Bewitched (documentary)MidsommarThe Dark Is Rising by Susan CooperGames MentionedApocalypse WorldDream Askew/Dream ApartWanderhomeStonetop (with annotated actual play)If you liked this podcast, check out the weekly Indie RPG Newsletter

En 1902, el autor John Buchan, primer barón de Tweedsmuir, historiador y político escocés de prolífica carrera, publicó por primera vez en el Reino Unido una de las antologías de relatos más peculiares que se recuerdan. Ambientadas principalmente en la frontera anglo escocesa, sus historias incluyen ingredientes sobrenaturales de misterio, horror y fantasía, en ocasiones dejando un amplio margen de especulación en la imaginación del lector… La colección original llevaba el mismo título que nuestro cuento de esta noche, incluido también en la antología “El Ceremonial" publicada por la editorial Valdemar en su colección del Club Diógenes, dedicada al Folk Horror… Disfrútenlo pues amigosssh y sigan a estos maestros primigenios!
