Let us know your thoughtsDon't make a sound. Don't even breathe. This week on The Horror Cut, Stephen and Gary tiptoe into the nail-biting silence of 2018's breakout hit A Quiet Place.We're unpacking the terror of a world where noise equals death, from the film's brilliantly tense sound design to its heart-wrenching family dynamics. How does a horror movie with barely a word spoken manage to scream so loudly?Is A Quiet Place a masterclass in minimalism or just a high-concept thriller with a gimmick? Either way, keep your footsteps light—something's always listening.IG - @thehorrorcutshow | @HewittGPro | @StephenkerrActor_Performer FB - Facebook.com/profile.php?id=61573701383591

This week on The Horror Cut, Stephen and Gary are looking over their shoulders as they dive into 2014's eerie indie hit It Follows.We're talking creeping dread, a shit ton of panning shots and that relentless, slow-walking entity that somehow feels scarier than anything running at full speed.

The film world has been buzzing the last two weeks in the anticipation for Ryan Coogler's Sinners, a Southern gothic vampire musical that in one of the most original, authentic studio films released in sometime. After a strong opening box office and even stronger word of mouth from audiences, receiving an “A” CinemaScore this past weekend, Sinners is being considered one of, if not the best film of 2025 released so far. Ryan and Dan breakdown their extensive thoughts on the film, avoiding spoilers yet diving deep into the complex, exciting world Coogler has built. After they are done reviewing the film, they dive into a discussion over the horror genre for the last 25 years, and how it has evolved and changed over the course of the last two and a half decades. Films mentioned in their conversation ranged from Get Out, Saw, The Ring, The Cabin in the Woods, The Conjuring, Drag Me to Hell, The Others, American Psycho, The Witch, Midsommar, It Follows, Green Room, The Substance, Nosferatu, Suspiria, Titane, and many more.

Let us begin by saying thank you to our listeners. This week we published our 400th episode! We can hardly believe it. From nearly 9 years ago when the idea of discussions about faith and fear was little more than a fun thought experiment, to sitting now at 400 episodes (and more than that when we count bonuses and interviews), we're so grateful for the little community we've grown together.So, to celebrate 400 episodes, we solicited lists from more than 40 friends and listeners of what they considered the greatest horror films of all time. Then, we gathered together a group of long-standing FoGgers (Vera Goudie, Andrew Nelson, Jackson Harper, Jocee Worley, Dave Courtney, and Matt Murray) to discuss, debate, and finalize what among those were the 10 Greatest Horror Films of All Time.Along the way, we discuss what qualities make a horror film great, whether it matters if a film is broadly popular or higher in intensity, and much more. It's a hearty and thoughtful conversation about why we love horror movies, their value to our lives, and -- most especially -- which ones are the best of the bunch.Thank you SO much for listening to us over the years and supporting us for more than 400 episodes examining what scares us in order to find what saves us. As always, the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom, but not the end of the conversation. In that spirit, we encourage you to fear nothing else and be on your way rejoicing. Thank you again.6:29 - How we collected the nominees8:14 - The Wild Card Picks20:54 - What makes a horror film great?31:06 - Number 1038:15 - Numbers 6 - 955:28 - How much does a horror film's intensity matter?1:04:06 - Numbers 3 - 51:19:44 - Popularity vs Quality1:26:26 - The Top 2 FilmsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Oz Perkins' second film in a year, The Monkey stars both Theo James and Christian Convery in dual roles, Tatiana Maslany, Colin O'Brien, Adam Scott, and Elijah Wood. Does Perkins follow up last summer's Longlegs with a potent mashup of Final Destination and Stephen King? Or does this horror comedy fizzle out?
