Mark Duplass has entered the fray! And he is very, very creepy.This week we're going deep on another found footage gem from the indie world. In what may be the only true “character study” of our series, Patrick Brice presents a new type of slasher… who simply won't shut the fuck up.He's Peachfuzz, and he may have therapy language, but he's basically Psycho in a dollar store wolf costume.

In this episode, we sit down with filmmaker Braden Timmons, the creative force behind some of the most talked-about Michael Myers fan films. We dive into his journey through the world of independent filmmaking, the passion and dedication it takes to bring stories to life on screen, and the unique challenges of crafting a film around one of the most iconic and beloved characters in horror history. From building atmosphere to honoring the legacy of Halloween, Braden shares what it means to balance fan expectations with his own creative vision.If you're a horror fan, filmmaker, or just love hearing the stories behind indie passion projects, this conversation is one you don't want to miss.

THE SWIMMER (1968) We dive deep in to The Swimmer and discuss and analyze, maybe just a little bit the glorious film directed by Frank Perry, based on a screenplay by Eleanor Perry, from the 12 page short story by John Cheever. "Well-off ad man Ned Merrill (Burt Lancaster) is visiting a friend when he notices the abundance of backyard pools that populate their upscale suburb. Ned suddenly decides that he'd like to travel the eight miles back to his own home by simply swimming across every pool in town."If you're reading this I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support.

Today Eric and John discuss the current state and future predictions of indie horror. First look at this years Indie horror award show. We're also funny sometimes. #horrormovies #comedyhorrormovies #horrorcomedymovies #horrorfilm #review #comedy #podcast

This week we're discussing the poor perfomance of The Toxic Avenger, Clown In A Cornfield, and the Trailer for Black Phone 2.Also Mike Flannigan leaving Exorcist (or not?) and Bone Temple and Shell trailer reactions. 

This week on the SeerNova Podcast, we're joined by two incredible indie creators: Aaron Wroblewski of DABSKI Comics and Jason Lenox of Ugli Studios.Aaron shares his journey of blending horror, mythology, and anime influences into comics like Enenra and Blood & Fire / Ice & Bone. Jason talks about the creation of his heavy metal-inspired universe in Lords of the Cosmos and the art of detailed illustration.We also dive into Kickstarter lessons, convention stories, and what it takes to build a career in indie comics today.

On this episode of Night School Horror, Tommy James and Big Money Eddie sink their teeth into the indie horror-comedy Draculaw. They pick apart its charm, budgetary bruises, and that whole “time as an energy vampire” thing—because nothing says horror like losing a weekend to deadlines. From pacing quirks to soundtrack surprises, the hosts balance praise with playful stabs of criticism, proving once again that low-budget doesn't mean low-bite.

This week, we're joined by powerhouse filmmaking duo Jordan and Jules Sealander, known for their bold and unapologetic work in the world of independent horror cinema. In this episode, the Sealander's take us behind the scenes of their journey — from humble beginnings to carving out a unique space in the indie film landscape.We talk about how they got their start, what drew them to the horror genre, and how they balance storytelling, directing, and producing as siblings. They also give us an exclusive peek at upcoming projects, their creative process, and what it really takes to bring visceral, original horror to life outside the studio system.If you're a fan of indie filmmaking, horror with a heartbeat, or just love hearing how creatives bring their vision to the screen against all odds — this one's for you.

Real-life married couple, Allison Brie and Dave Franco, star in “Together” — part supernatural flick, part body horror, with a side of co-dependency and a dash of insanity. Tune in to hear us break down all those intense scenes (and there were many), how committed the two leads were, that perfect song played at the end, and how the film is a metaphor for issues we've all experienced in relationships.

Johnny Spoiler dives into week 8 of Summer Slash with The Shout (1978) — a surreal, Aboriginal magic–infused thriller starring John Hurt, Alan Bates, and Susannah York. Plus, retro horror fun with Puppet Master 7, Greg Sestero's pre-The Room role, Highlander reboot casting buzz, and a taste of Koia's plant protein.

There is a lot of news surrounding the real Annabelle doll in recent weeks. We weigh in on what we feel is true, what is fake, and what lies in between. You may be surprised to hear what we think about the supposedly cursed doll. We also talk about being attractive in the 1980s and the latest comedic reboot of a serious property.We thought The School Duel would be a much rougher watch. It does deal with school shootings and the depiction of a bullied teenager will affect some audiences, but it did not have the out and out carnage we were worried about. Instead, it is a well told character study that sucks the audience in.So, why didn't we care that much for it? The last third of the film feels like it is spinning its wheels. The part that should be the most exciting feels tacked on and pointless. It gets a little too much like a video game. And the ending undermines all the good the earlier parts of The School Duel had carefully built.Animale is a confusing French horror movie. The storytelling is straightforward and there is a lot of good here. It is atmospheric, dark, and has one of the most unique settings we have ever seen. The plot is very engaging and the writing does an excellent job of providing character depth. The final moments feature some amazing imagery that will stay with anyone who sees it. It is disturbing and will make anyone who sees feel something. The delicate subject matter is treated with sensitivity and ties everything together. It is what happens after that left us unsure how to feel. Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network.

In this interview, we sit down with Alden Ehrenreich to talk about his role in Weapons, the chilling new film from Zach Cregger. Alden shares how physical details like Paul's mustache helped him ground the character, the deeper themes running beneath the surface of the film, and what drew him to a genre he usually avoids. We also discuss lessons he's taking into his directing after working with Zach. WEAPONS hits theatres and IMAX on August 8, 2025.

What drives 17 children to vanish into the night — and why is one left behind?In Weapons, Zach Cregger (Barbarian) crafts a haunting mystery-horror that sidesteps jump scares in favor of psychological dread. Anchored by powerful performances from Julia Garner, Josh Brolin, and breakout star Cary Christopher, this slow-burning thriller unravels through shifting perspectives, communal grief, and a central question with no easy answers. Creeping dread, emotional complexity, and narrative ambition collide in one of the year's most thought-provoking genre films.Read the full review at TheFilmGordon.com.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/keeping-it-reel-with-filmgordon--4671407/support.

Is Jessica losing her mind—or is something dead serious haunting her? Join hosts Aleece and Tony as they take a first-time watch of the eerie 1971 cult classic Let's Scare Jessica to Death, directed by John Hancock. In this moody, psychological slow burn, whispers in the woods and ghostly figures may be hiding more than just trauma...This is a GUESS THE ENDING episode! That means we only watch the first half of the film before pausing to spill our guts with wild predictions about how it ends. Will Jessica survive the voices in her head? Will the lake give up its secrets? Or are we ALL just part of her delusion?

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.

When the winds of curiosity rustle the mind and stir the soul, they often bring with them storytellers—those rare beings who don't just recount events but breathe life into them. On today's episode, we welcome Joe Kowalski, a young filmmaker from Cleveland whose creative spirit dances between shadows and light, weaving stories through film, mystery, and innovation.Joe Kowalski is a filmmaker, game designer, and storyteller whose projects explore new ways to experience narrative across media.In this profound conversation, we journey through Joe's unique endeavor—a Stephen King “Dollar Baby” short film adaptation titled I Am the Doorway. What begins as a seemingly simple homage to the horror maestro evolves into a lesson in humility, time management, and artistic vision. Joe's choice of story, influenced by a girlfriend and the limitations of a shoestring budget, was no accident. It was a study in resourcefulness—making the most of what one has while honoring a source of immense creative power. “You have to know what you can realistically accomplish,” Joe said. And that, my friends, is wisdom beyond years.Joe didn't stop at simply retelling a tale. He reframed the horror classic into a new cinematic experience, wrapping Stephen King's suspense within a short film festival format. This wasn't about profit or prestige—it was about community, experimentation, and delivering value to the audience. His respect for the time and effort of collaborators is unwavering: “That's the biggest thing they can give you,” he mused. And in a world obsessed with the bottom line, such reverence is sacred.But his imagination doesn't remain tethered to the screen. Joe designed an interactive Instagram murder mystery game—an elegant rebellion against linear storytelling. Through a labyrinth of tags and grids, players navigate a digital whodunit, one clue at a time. Each piece of the game reveals not just a path to the culprit, but a deeper truth about human curiosity and our hunger for connection. It's a digital scavenger hunt of intention, ingenuity, and play. A new mythology told in swipes and likes.Lest one believe that his path has been frictionless, Joe admits to the chaos of low-budget production, the stress of festivals, and the heartbreak of seeing good work shelved for lack of fit. Still, he views each project as a sculptor views stone—not yet perfect, but perfecting. His year-long film PRISM is another feather in this vibrant cap—a color-coded exploration of identity and emotional entanglement told through color-isolated cinematography. Here is a man who does not merely shoot films; he paints them.Throughout the conversation, what resounds most is Joe's blend of youthful energy and ancient patience. He reveres the creative process, yet he's unafraid to let go when the time calls for it. Whether planning podcasts with friends or studying the rise of VR storytelling, Joe doesn't merely chase the next trend—he studies its rhythm, its heartbeat, and asks how it might elevate human experience. “You have to care about the story even when you don't feel like caring about it,” he says—and that is the quiet devotion of an artist in bloom.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bulletproof-screenwriting-podcast--2881148/support.

IntroRobin Block is rewriting the playbook for how genre stories get made. As the founder of CreatorVC, he's behind the wildly successful In Search of Darkness documentary series, Aliens Expanded, and In Search of the Last Action Heroes—all funded and shaped by passionate fans. Now, with his new venture ScreamSeed, Robin is building the future of horror development: a platform that brings creators and fans together to incubate new IP and make bold, independent horror without waiting for Hollywood permission. In this episode, Robin shares how to build your own lane in horror, why fan-led development is the future, how to pitch projects that actually get made, and why practical effects and passion will always win over algorithms.We also do an inordinate amount of geeking out about horror along the way and Robin makes a bunch of great deep cut recommendations so get your pencils ready. Or your notetaking apps because nobody owns pencils any more. I'm personally very psyched by what Robin is building. He is truly a man of the fans and is working towards a production infrastructure in which the fans get to rally their energy towards real projects which is not only exceptionally exciting, but echoes a new wave of the future.Now, for your listening pleasure, please enjoy this episode with Robin Block.Show NotesResources & Links:In Search of Darkness: 1995–1999 available for pre-order until June 9 at 80sHorrorDoc.comAliens Expanded and all CreatorVC projects – creatorvc.comScreamSeed horror incubator – screamseed.comMovies & Projects DiscussedIn Search of Darkness (I, II, III, 1990–94, 1995–99)In Search of TomorrowIn Search of the Last Action HeroesAliens ExpandedThe Thing Expanded (in development)Late Night with the DevilHereticShelby OaksThe ShiningThe ThingAliensThe Evil DeadTalk to MeSkinamarinkThe Pope's ExorcistThe BoogeymanTerrifier 2Directors & Filmmakers ReferencedDavid WeinerJohn CarpenterJames CameronGuillermo del ToroDamien LeoneParker FinnAri AsterPhilippou BrothersMike FlanaganRob BottinFrank DarabontSigourney WeaverEli RothFollow Robin Block at:IMBd: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1602716/?ref_=fn_all_nme_1X (Twitter): https://twitter.com/robinblockFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Rob.BlockLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robinblock1/Website: https://www.creatorvc.com/

Today we are talking Host (2020), a groundbreaking horror film shot entirely on Zoom during the COVID-19 lockdown. What begins as a harmless activity quickly spirals into terror as a demonic presence invades their homes. We explore the film's innovative use of screenlife storytelling, its timely commentary on isolation, and how it became a standout in the "quarantine horror" genre.

There are not many weeks that go by that we end up discussing news of a horror reboot. This show we talk about the Urban Legends reboot. There is not much news as of yet, but it is definitely coming. We talk about our memories of the movie, why it tends to be overlooked, and whether we are looking forward to it.During our last show, we talked about the awesome marketing behind Weapons. The advertising blitz for the film continues. This week a two hour YouTube video was released of security camera footage. There was also a bonkers trailer. The question becomes, when can you have too much of a good thing?Horror movies tend to be based around folklore. So it is not that surprising that there are not that many vampire films from Asia. Daydreamers is one of the first vampire movies to come out of Vietnam. Understandably, the story is a predictable one about a group of bloodsuckers who are fighting the urge to kill humans.There is no doubting how stylish Daydreamers is. And since there are so few vampire stories from that part of the world, it is easy to forgive many of the missteps. However, there is only so much you can overlook. Poor writing and pacing ruing what would be a flawed, but passable watch.Taking popular children's stories and putting a horror spin on them is nothing new. We talk about the recent glut of these types of movies and why people do not really care about them anymore. This leads to our feature presentation, the body horror retelling of Cinderella, The Ugly Stepsister.The plot is basically the same story everyone knows, but told from the point of view of one of the cruel stepsisters. Still, The Ugly Stepsister is its own tale. Though it covers many of the themes of the source material, the fact that it is told from a different perspective gives everything a different meaning. It is filled with surprises and is disgusting in all the best ways. Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network.

Bring Your Own Last Cabin! This episode has some of the DBS Films crew on to talk about their newest project, available on VOD April 29th, The Last Cabin(2025)!

We have made no secret that we do not take the Oscars seriously. Like everybody else, we enjoy making predictions and second guessing the winners, but we also know they are a joke. We had no idea just how far that joke went. This week, the Academy made a shocking change that was impossible for us to ignore. We also talk about the recent cast announcements for the Ready or Not sequel.For as long as people have shared scary stories, trauma has been a part of them. There is nothing more terrifying than real life horrors, after all. The Killgrin is an addition to mental health horror that follows a woman who is trying to cope with a horrible tragedy. After visiting a spiritual healer, she learns she is being followed by an entity that feeds on misery.It is not the most original premise, but it is one that can work if done correctly. And The Killgrin does do a lot right. There are some gnarly kills, cool creature design, and some decent characters. But a confusing ending and strange decisions negatively impact the film. But is it really fair to call it Temu Smile?Folk horror has followed an interesting trajectory. What began as stories about people dealing with strange rituals and mysterious happenings has somehow become more about atmosphere and less about characters. Frewaka is something of a throwback. It may be vague and creepy, but it always goes back to its protagonists. There is a lot to unpack in what is a very straightforward story. Frewaka is an atmospheric film filled with powerful imagery that interweaves slice of life moments. The setting and look of the film are perfect and the fact that most of it is spoken in Irish further immerses the audience. Blake also talks about the most important quality to make a good folk horror movie. Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network.

THIS WEEK: Wendigo (2001), Depraved (2019), and Blackout (2023)Too hip for the horror hounds and too committed to making monster movies for the arthouse crowd. Larry Fessenden's career is defined by moments of brilliance from a one-of-a-kind filmmaker hamstrung by budget constraints and setbacks that kept him from becoming a household name. He's also the perfect example of someone willing to do what it takes to make art that he loves without compromising his vision. And damn, did you know he had a Killers of the Flower Moon cameo?Donate to Palestinian Medical Aid Support Optimism Vaccine on Patreon

How much did we love Barbarian? Go back and listen to the episode and check it out. You can probably guess that we are very interested in the new movie from its writer-director. And if we already weren't, the creepy website would easily suck us in. The Hell House LLC franchise is an underrated series that are excellent examples of found footage horror. The news that the final installment comes out later this year is certainly excit- wait. It's not going to be found footage?Anyone who has ever spent any amount of time on YouTube has eventually stumbled across a video about the greatest game show scandals of all time. And the Press Your Luck incident is one of the most infamous. After memorizing the board, the former ice cream truck driver went on a record breaking run.The Luckiest Man in America chronicles the episode and everything surrounding it. It is a character driven story that is more about the people involved than the actual scandal itself. The film uses great performances, aesthetics, and an overall tone to tell its story. If only it had more Whammys and less Johnny Knoxville.Call of the Void sets itself up to be a crazy ride from its awesome opening. It is an atmosphere that lasts the entire runtime. It is a shame the filmmakers decided to go all in with being creepy and totally decided to ignore the writing. It is a great example of what happens when being vague and weird is more important than actually telling a story. Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network.
