Happy Halloween -- but also, give this a listen any time of year if you're a fan of cosmic, existential horror and esoteric spirituality! To help celebrate this year on The Fringe FM, Joe Rupe of Lighting the Void invited me to read a short story of my choosing, and the first one that popped into my mind was this lesser known Lovecraft story that has always been my favorite. Not only do the events of the story occur on the day before and of my real-life birthday, but they also speak to every part of my artistic sensibilities: horror, unease, mystery, spirituality and philosophy, mad science, and unexplainable phenomena! In many ways this story has heavily influenced the notions that boiled over and became Black Hoodie Alchemy. This story is as beautiful as it is eerie and haunting, with even a Hills-Have-Eyes sort of flare to it that could potentially upset the staunchest of social justice warriors, but thankfully stops at the threshold of full-on xenophobia (something that cannot be said of some of Lovecraft's other stories.)In any case, I was pleasantly surprised to find that this story is also in the public domain at this point, so here it is for all your listening enjoyment! Happy Halloween and salutations to you year-round horror fiends listening to this out of season! I hope you dig it.Related Content:Beyond the Wall of Sleep DIVE MANUAL AUDIOBOOK (narrated by Joe Rupe)HUNT MANUALBHA LINKTREE w books, shorts, and much moreJoe Rupe's Lighting the VoidFringe FMThis week's featured music coming from titanic wordsmiths always holding it down for the underground!

This week Blake Smith and Karen Stollznow are joined by clinical psychologist Dr. Brian A. Sharpless, author of Monsters on the Couch, to discuss cannibalism—what it is, why humans have done it, and how the taboo shows up in archaeology, medicine, psychology, and horror cinema. They cover definitions (endocannibalism vs. survival cannibalism), prion diseases such as Kuru, criminal and paraphilic cases, and pop-culture touchpoints from Ravenous to The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, plus legend-tripping at Lovelock Cave and the “giants” folklore around the Mound Builder myth.Don't forget to grab Karen's latest: Bitch: The Journey of a Word
Join us for an in-depth conversation with actor Michael Bailey Smith, a versatile performer whose career spans decades of unforgettable roles across horror, sci-fi, and fantasy. From playing Super Freddy in A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child to terrifying audiences as Pluto in The Hills Have Eyes remake, Michael has built a legacy of bringing larger-than-life characters to the screen. In this interview, Michael shares behind-the-scenes stories from his most iconic roles, his experiences working with directors like Wes Craven, and how he transitioned from football to film. We also talk about his time on Charmed, his role in the cult-favorite Fantastic Four (1994), and what continues to drive his passion for acting today. If you love horror history, creature performances, or hearing from the legends who helped shape the genre, this conversation is for you.

This episode Nez and Brian head out the New Mexico desert to help a stranded family fight off a group of radio active mutants in the 2006 Alexandre Aja film THE HILLS HAVE EYES. Bob Carter and his wife Ethel, along with five other members of the family, are heading for San Diego with their camper vans. An accident strands them in the desert and while two of the men go for help, the others are forced to wait. They're unaware that they've ended up stuck near the site where, decades earlier, nuclear tests gave rise to a group of mutant monsters who have developed a taste for human flesh.

Synopsis When a family takes a road trip looking for a fun and exciting vacation in sunny California, they find themselves off the beaten path and searching for a main road. Things spiral out of control when military jets fly overhead, startling the family and causing the vehicle and the trailer it pulls to crash in the middle of nowhere. As the sun sets, the family splits up to find a way to call for help, but danger may be lurking just around the hills. Review of The Hills Have Eyes (1977) This was my first time watching the original The Hills Have Eyes. I had already seen the 2006 remake, which surprisingly stays true to the story and content of the original very well. However, it's hard to beat the charm and originality of the 1977 version directed by Wes Craven. This movie is dark, gritty, and tugs at your nerves from almost every conceivable angle. As a father of a one-year-old, the terror felt by the young couple caring for their baby was palpable to me, and it genuinely made me feel ill at times. But you may be saying, “Max, I'm not a young parent to a baby, will this movie still apply to me?” Well, that depends. Do you care about dogs? Cause if the answer is yes, you will probably still feel on the edge of your seat with worry the whole time. This movie pulls no punches, attacking the family dynamic from all sides. No one is safe, and all shots are below the belt. Score 8/10
Evan is off this week, so Megan and Dave are joined by The Lady Wan of ScreenRun. They talk about the ghost story WENT UP THE HILL (5:03), starring Vicky Krieps and Dacre Montgomery, about a widow mourning her wife's recent death, and the wife's long-lost son who arrives for the funeral. Is this ghost benevolent or not so benevolent? Then they talk about NIGHT ALWAYS COMES (35:08), a new Netflix thriller starring Vanessa Kirby as Lynette, a woman trying to purchase her mother's home so she and her mother and brother don't end up homeless, and all the terrible crap that happens as Lynette becomes more desperate to find the down payment. (Jennifer Jason Lee is the mother. The bad mother.) We all had strong opinions about this one. Over on Patreon, we talk about Wes Craven's 1977 film THE HILLS HAVE EYES.

Ten years ago, 2015 was the year of the epic Western. Two films, Alejandro Iñárritu's The Revenant and Quentin Tarantino's The Hateful Eight, clocked in at an average length of 170 minutes and scored a combined 15 Academy Award nominations, winning 4 between them. As a pair, the two films brought in nearly $700 million at the box office. Along with John Maclean's Sundance darling Slow West, the year marked a return to prominence of the western genre, foreshadowing the next decade's breakout hits like Taylor Sheridan's Yellowstone and Hell or High Water, and Martin Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon. Slipping somewhat under the radar in 2015 was the directorial debut of S. Craig Zahler, a prolific author and screenwriter with a penchant for wit, grit, and gore. Zahler cast Kurt Russell, Patrick Wilson, Matthew Fox, and Richard Jenkins in a Western akin to John Ford's The Searchers by way of Wes Craven's The Hills Have Eyes. When townsfolk are kidnapped by a clan of troglodyte cannibals, four men - the sheriff, a cowboy, a gunslinger, and the back-up deputy - ride out as a posse to rescue them. The indie film quickly earned praise for its direction, dialogue, and disturbing imagery, and has built a cult following in the decade hence. But is our posse of hosts in agreement on how Bone Tomahawk lands? Or will we, too, be split down the middle?

First, we're going to be discussing The Hills Have Eyes franchise and the legend of a cannibalistic Scottish clan that inspired it. Then, we'll talk about the movie Changeling and the tragic murder case at its center.

Sean leaves the main road in the Nevada desert and discovers The Hills Have Eyes (1977), Wes Craven's shocking follow up to Last House on the Left, which locks an American nuclear family in life-or-death combat with an inbred clan of cannibals, inspired by the legend of Sawney Bean.

Every so often, something hits the inbox that stops me in my tracks. This is one of those emails.In this episode, I'm sharing a message from a man named Marcus—someone who claims to be a former member of a secretive military unit tasked with cleaning up after encounters with cryptids, aliens, and other classified threats. Bigfoot. Dogman. UFOs. You name it—he says he's seen it, and worse.But the reason Marcus reached out? That's where things get truly unsettling.According to him, his unit was deployed to deal with a terrifying incident involving feral people—a group deep in the wilderness responsible for a string of disappearances and brutal killings. He claims they weren't just wild… they were organized. Dangerous. Predatory.If you've listened to That Bigfoot Podcast, you'll know Wayne and I have talked about feral people in the Appalachians before. And while it sounds like the stuff of horror movies, there are documented cases of strange disappearances and alleged human predators in remote areas. Marcus's email adds a new layer to that disturbing possibility.Let me be clear:I cannot verify Marcus's identity or his story. This is not presented as fact. But it was compelling, detailed, and dark enough that I felt it was worth sharing with you.⚠️ LISTENER DISCRETION IS STRONGLY ADVISED.This episode contains graphic descriptions of violence, death, and intense combat scenarios involving humans, cryptids, and alleged non-human entities. It is absolutely not suitable for children or sensitive listeners.Whether you believe Marcus or not, what he describes is chilling—and once you hear it, you won't forget it.Join Mireya's Explorer Society Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsVisit Untold Radio AMBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

We all know the GOOD horror movie remakes; The Thing, The Fly, The Blob, etc, but what about the remakes that are a little more underappreciated? Everyone now is foolishly remaking good movies into meh/garbage films, but what about taking a solidly meh movie to begin with and giving it a loving touchup? Wes Craven's 1977 ‘The Hills Have Eyes” is a bland version of the Sawney Bean legend, but what if that was jazzed up a bit into, say, a 2006 retelling focusing on the dangers of nuclear testing in the American Southwest? Well say what if no longer, because that's what we're covering today.

A good chunk of us are probably buried under snow right now, so why not grab our skis and hit the slopes? While we're at it, we might as well crank some obscure 80s Swedish hair metal but be careful - they rock so hard that their music sometimes causes avalanches! It should be fine… What's worse is there's a murderous group of Hills Have Eyes knockoffs chilling in the nearby factory and definitely not enough lighting on set to show the viewer who's killing who. That's 1985's BLOOD TRACKS in a nutshell (we think - it was really dark) and we're digging ourselves out of that fluffy white stuff this week; we may even shovel some snow!
