Willkommen zu Folge 261 – heute haben wir uns nicht nur durch die Kinonews gewühlt, sondern Johannes war sogar im Theater, während Robin die 4K-Restaurierung eines echten Anime-Klassikers genossen hat. Wir starten mit dem nächsten großen Kapitel aus der weit, weit entfernten Galaxis: Mandalorian & Grogu. Wir klären, ob der Sprung von der Disney+ Serie auf die große Leinwand funktioniert oder ob sich Star Wars hier zu sehr auf Nummer sicher geht. Wer es lieber bodenständig (und flauschig) mag, für den haben wir Glendale: Ein Schafskrimi. Ein „Who-done-it“ mit sprechenden Schafen und Hugh Jackman, das uns als zuckersüßer und emotionaler Überraschungshit positiv umgehauen hat. Für die Horror-Fans wird es heute extrem: Während The Passenger trotz starker Kameraarbeit an seiner „strunzdummen“ Story scheitert, entführt uns Johannes in die Abgründe von The Poughkeepsie Tapes. Dieser bösartige Found-Footage-Film ist frisch vom Index und spielt mit den Grenzen des Erträglichen. Zudem werfen wir einen Blick auf die Serienlandschaft: Wir diskutieren das heftig kritisierte Finale von The Boys, feiern die Action in der zweiten Staffel von Devil May Cry und analysieren den rasanten Anime Scarlet. Zum Abschluss gibt es noch einen kleinen Ausflug in die Hamburger Hafen City zu Harry Potter und das verwunschene Kind. Viel Spaß beim Hören!

“The Killing Cell” is an awesome found footage film that's been tearing up the festival circuit with awards and nominations! Writer/director/producer and actor Karsen Schovajsa and his crew pulled together a nostalgic horror flick that captures the same eerie energy as “Hell House LLC” and “Grave Encounters.” I was lucky enough to check out a screener, absolutely loved it, and had to bring Karsen onto the podcast to talk all about the making of this soon-to-be cult hit! Make sure to follow TheKillingCellMovie, DeadRenegadeFilms, ScreenSanctity (James Bessey, co-director)and Karsen_Thomas3 for updates on the film. If you aren't already, please follow the podcast on Instagram and Facebook.

Send us Fan MailThe  Deadites return… and this looks absolutely horrifying

Every horror fan thinks they're unique... but after decades of watching horror movies, collecting tapes, attending conventions, and arguing online, I've noticed that most of us fall into a few recognizable categories.In this solo episode of The Deep Cut Podcast, Rottin' Roger breaks down some of the most common species of horror fan you'll encounter in the wild. From Gorehounds chasing the next extreme shock film, to Slasher Fanatics who can name every masked killer from every forgotten sequel, to Collectors, Comfort Food Horror Fans, and Horror Historians who treat the genre like a living museum.This is the first installment in what will likely become a multi-part series because there are WAY more horror fan archetypes out there than I could fit into a single episode.So here's the challenge...Which type of horror fan are YOU?Did I nail your category? Did I completely miss one? Drop a comment and let me know what kind of horror fan you are, and suggest a horror fan archetype for Part 2.Subscribe for more weird deep cuts, horror commentary, cult classics, VHS nostalgia, and everything lurking in the shadows of the genre.

***This podcast contains light spoilers*** If you miss the era of grimy 2000's horror movies with practical effects, real locations, and wild behind-the-scenes stories, you should check out Passenger. Watching it felt like stumbling onto a lost horror flick from 20 years ago. Then while the credits were rolling, I spotted a familiar name — my old friend Coalin Smith as the 2nd AD. Naturally, I texted him immediately and asked if he wanted to come on the podcast to talk about what it was actually like making it … and thankfully, he said yes. So after my review, stick around for stories from behind the camera. Honestly, the behind-the-scenes stories might be just as entertaining as a movie itself. If you're not doing so already, please like and follow Classic American Movies on Instagram and Facebook.

1990 was a strange, transitional year for horror… and a massively formative one for us.In this episode of the Gutted Horror Podcast, we dig into the BEST HORROR MOVIES OF 1990 — the movies that shaped our taste in horror, warped our brains at an early age, and sent us down the path of becoming lifelong genre obsessives. From studio horror classics to overlooked video store oddities, we're talking slashers, creature features, psychological horror, cult weirdness, and forgotten gems that deserve way more attention.Some of these movies became horror canon. Others disappeared into the void of VHS shelves and late-night cable… but all of them left a mark.

Hokum Review:Welcome to Out from the Horrorbox!

Another packed movie review episode as Andrew and Shane tackle the buzzy new horror film Curry Barker's Obsession as well as Guy Ritchie's latest In The Grey and Aleshea Harris's debut Is God Is.

Willkommen zur Folge 260 – wir sind nach einer kleinen Pause zurück! Auch wenn meine Stimme noch etwas angeschlagen ist, haben wir einen prallgefüllten Koffer mitgebracht, der von Zombie-Epen über Star Wars-Lore bis hin zu absurden YouTube-Entdeckungen reicht. Den Anfang macht ein echtes Schwergewicht: Lee Cronin's The Mummy. Wir klären, warum dieser Film eher in die Fußstapfen von Evil Dead tritt als in die von Brendan Fraser und warum die Geschichte einer verfluchten Tochter trotz starker Effekte und einer „Grusel-Achterbahn“ durch Kairo storytechnisch etwas flach bleibt. Richtig dystopisch wird es bei Mercy: Wir begleiten Chris Pratt in eine nahe Zukunft, in der eine emotionslose KI (Rebecca Ferguson) über Leben und Tod entscheidet. Warum der Film trotz prominenter Besetzung bei uns eher für „Mercy“-Rufe statt Begeisterung sorgt, hört ihr in der Analyse. Für die Horror-Fans haben wir ein wahres Buffet angerichtet: Wir sprechen über den psychologischen Terror in Good Boy – Wir wollen nur dein Bestes, den stummen Überlebenskampf in Azrael und das neueste Kapitel des Hellraiser-Universums. Ein echtes Highlight ist zudem die Low-Budget-Perle Milk & Serials – ein Found-Footage-Kurzfilm auf YouTube, der für nur 500 Dollar zeigt, wie man mit Pranks und gutem Pacing echten Horror erzeugt. Zum Ausklang wird es animiert und episch: Wir feiern die Rückkehr von Darth Maul in der visuell beeindruckenden Serie Shadow Lord Maul und tauchen ein in die faszinierende, alternative Geschichte von Nippon Sangoku. Viel Spaß beim Hören!

Do you ever wonder why your dog stares at empty corners, barks for no reason, or refuses to go into the basement? Good Boy is the story of a dog who sees everything that goes bump in the night.

Hello, Horror Fans!

Movie Cannibals #28 - Fantasy Filmfest (Sven² und was von Till) Frisch serviert aus der dunklen Ecke der Filmwelt: Eine neue Folge Movie Cannibals ist da und diesmal wird's richtig spannend… und ein kleines bisschen unheimlich. Wir haben einen besonderen Gast am Start: einen Mitarbeiter der Fantasy Filmfest Nights, Sven aus dem schönen Hamburg, der aus dem Nähkästchen plaudert und uns mitnimmt hinter die Kulissen eines der wichtigsten Events für Genre-Fans. Wie läuft das Ganze eigentlich ab? Was passiert, wenn das Licht ausgeht und die Filme anfangen, unter die Haut zu gehen? Und warum sind Horror-Fans eigentlich die entspanntesten Menschen überhaupt? Außerdem wird's persönlich: Unser Gast erzählt von seinen eigenen Horror-Anfängen, wie alles begann, welche Filme ihn geprägt haben und warum man manchmal mehr Spaß daran hat, sich freiwillig zu gruseln, als man zugeben möchte. Keine panischen Schreie, aber definitiv einige Gänsehautmomente und überraschend lustige Einblicke. Freut euch auf eine Folge voller spannender Geschichten, nerdiger Filmliebe und dem ein oder anderen augenzwinkernden Blick auf die Welt des Horrors. Also: Kopfhörer auf, Play drücken und eintauchen, wenn ihr euch traut. Viel Spaß mit der neuen Folge vom Tele-Stammtisch!

In der aktuellen Podcast-Episode widmen wir uns gleich drei sehr unterschiedlichen, aber hochspannenden Film- und Serienprojekten: dem blutigen Action-Horror „They Will Kill You“, dem Katastrophen-Sequel „Greenland 2: Migration“ und dem lange erwarteten „Scrubs“-Reboot aus dem Jahr 2026. Gemeinsam haben alle Titel, dass sie große Erwartungen wecken – sei es durch prominente Namen, bekannte Marken oder ein starkes Genreversprechen. Den Auftakt macht der Kinofilm „They Will Kill You“, inszeniert von Kirill Sokolov. Der Film kombiniert kompromisslosen Horror mit schwarzem Humor und stylischer Action. Im Mittelpunkt steht eine junge Frau, die sich in einem luxuriösen New Yorker Hochhaus plötzlich in einem tödlichen Albtraum wiederfindet. Der Film fällt vor allem durch seine extreme Bildsprache, sein hohes Tempo und einen deutlichen „Eat-the-Rich“-Unterton auf. In unserem Podcast sprechen wir darüber, wie gut diese Mischung aufgeht, für wen der Film geeignet ist und warum er nicht nur für Horrorfans interessant sein könnte. Anschließend geht es mit „Greenland 2: Migration“ deutlich größer und ernster weiter. Das Sequel knüpft an die Ereignisse des ersten Films an und begleitet die Familie Garrity auf einer gefährlichen Reise durch ein zerstörtes Europa. Statt eines einzelnen Katastrophenszenarios steht diesmal das Überleben in einer postapokalyptischen Welt im Fokus. Wir diskutieren, ob der zweite Teil die emotionale Wucht des Originals erreicht, wie glaubwürdig die Eskalation erzählt wird und ob Gerard Butler erneut als Zugpferd überzeugt. Zum Abschluss werfen wir einen ausführlichen Blick auf das „Scrubs“-Reboot 2026. Die Kultserie kehrt mit bekannten Figuren und einer neuen Generation von Ärztinnen und Ärzten zurück ins Sacred Heart Hospital. Humor, Herz und der typische „Scrubs“-Ton sollen erhalten bleiben, gleichzeitig will die Serie moderne Themen und eine veränderte Krankenhausrealität abbilden. Im Podcast besprechen wir, wie gut dieser Spagat gelingt, welche Figuren besonders gut funktionieren und warum das Reboot für alte Fans ebenso wie für Neueinsteiger spannend sein kann. Wenn du wissen willst, welche dieser Produktionen wirklich sehenswert sind und wo wir Stärken und Schwächen sehen, dann hör unbedingt in die neue Episode rein.

Hello, Horror Fans!

Hello, Horror Fans!

Today, we sit down with Ready or Not 2 directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillet to discuss returning to the chaotic horror-comedy world of the original film. In this conversation, they talk about how the sequel balances terror and absurdity, how their collaboration with Samara Weaving evolved as her character Grace returns, and how filming in Hamilton and the Niagara region in Canada helped shape the larger scale and atmosphere of the film. It's a behind-the-scenes look at the creative process of building a bigger sequel while staying true to what made Ready or Not such a fan-favourite horror film.

One of the most divisive horror films of 2025 is here — and it's doing something very different with the vampire genre.In this spoiler-lite review, Jim dives into Sinners, a stylish, ambitious period-piece horror film that audiences seem to either absolutely love… or completely reject. Set during the Prohibition era in the Deep South, Sinners blends historical drama, social commentary, and supernatural horror into a bold, uncompromising experience.We'll cover:• What makes Sinners such a unique take on vampire mythology• The stunning period setting and cinematography• Michael B. Jordan's impressive dual performance as twin brothers• How music and atmosphere are woven into the supernatural elements• Why this film has struck such a strong — and polarized — chord with viewersThis is high-brow horror done with intention, depth, and gravitas. There are no cheap scares here — just thoughtful storytelling, powerful themes, and moments of full-throttle horror when the switch finally flips.Whether you're a vampire movie fan, a lover of period pieces, or just curious about one of the most talked-about genre films of the year, this review will help you decide if Sinners is worth your time.

Things didn't go quite as planned this week on Mostly Horror, but sometimes that makes for the most interesting conversations. With our guest lineup shifting last minute, we start by unpacking the shocking news of Charlie Kirk's assassination, reflecting on his controversial career, the polarizing reactions online, and the bigger cultural questions moments like this stir up. From there, we rewind to one of our earliest interviews with Goosebumps illustrator Tim Jacobus, a creative influence who shaped our love of horror from the start. It's an unusual mix of current events and horror nostalgia, but it all comes together as a reminder of why we explore the dark, the strange, and the unforgettable in every episode.

Daniel Gonzalez wanted fame — but not on stage or screen. Obsessed with horror films like Friday the 13th and A Nightmare on Elm Street, Gonzalez spiralled into drug abuse, mental illness, and violent fantasies that turned him into one of Britain's most notorious killers. In this episode of Blood Ties, Geoffrey and Molly Wansell explore the troubled childhood, psychiatric struggles, and chilling crimes of the so-called 'Freddy Krueger Killer'.We examine how failures in the mental health system allowed his descent into violence — and what his case reveals about obsession, untreated psychosis, and the making of a murderer.CREDITS: Presenters: Geoffrey and Molly WansellProducer: Peter Shevlin https://pod60.com/Artwork: George LeighMusic: Dan WansellCONTACT: Twitter: @BloodTies_PodInstagram: bloodties_podEmail: bloodties.podcast@gmail.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@bloodtiespodcast247Support: patreon.com/bloodtiespodcast Hosted on Acast.
