2018's The Haunting of Hill House was a game changer for Netflix, Mike Flanagan, and for genre storytelling. Flanagan already had success in the feature film realm with Oculus, Hush, and Ouija: Origin of Evil, just to name a few, but Hill House was the type of hit that sent his career soaring, and paved the way to four more series with Netflix. Every single one of those shows was a feat in genre storytelling. They made Netflix a go-to destination for high-quality horror, and also amplified the fact that horror is a genre with range and significant substance. Yes, there are jump scares, blood and gore, but you can also tell a deeply human horror story that can be both bone chilling and soulful.After 2023's The Fall of the House of Usher, Flanagan's run with Netflix came to an end and off he went to Amazon MGM Studios where he signed an exclusive multi-year TV pact. Three years later, Netflix found a creator capable of filling the Flanagan void. It's Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen's Haley Z. Boston. And the success of her eight-episode limited series isn't only sending her star soaring. It also confirms that star Camila Morrone is and should continue to be a genre star.With Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen currently enjoying a position in Netflix's Top 10 TV Shows in the US, Morrone sat down for a Collider Ladies Night interview to discuss her collaboration with Boston, and also to talk about her first go-around in the horror genre. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

If you have not been following hilarious drama surrounding The Onion's attempt to purchase InfoWars then you're missing out. Look, it's even being reported on the BBC. Something that I did not actually know about InfoWars is that Alex Jones thinks of himself as a kind of prophet. Well, at least Tucker Carlson thinks so. “He's channeling something, I've asked him about it. ‘How did you do that?' At length, during dinner on my barn recently. We're talking about this. ‘How'd you do that?' ‘I don’t know. It just came to me.' And that's real. That is real. The supernatural is real and I don't know why it's hard for for the modern mind, I guess because it's a materialist mind to accept that.” “That's not a new phenomenon. It's happened throughout history. There are people called prophets, and there are people who were prophets who weren't called prophets, but there are people who have information or parts of information, bits of information, visions of information come to them and then they relay it.” We're in the wrong business, kids. Anyways, we talk a little about some upcoming horror flicks, namely Zach Cregger's Resident Evil and Mike Flanagan's Clayface, both of which have trailers that are out now. We kick things off by talking about the unlikely Game 7 victory of the Montreal Canadiens over the Tampa Bay Lightning but I promise you we get good and nerdy after that's out of the way. On this week's Garbage Time we talk about how and why Eurotrip practically killed an entire film genre (and here's the link the video that I reference), Jon watched Crank: High Voltage which leads to a deep dive into Jason Statham's career and we wrap things up with, you guessed it, more hockey talk because the Habs are still in the playoffs and 66% of us love ourselves some hockey!

The Clayface movie trailer just dropped — and before Mike sees it, Zach is making him sit through the Batman: The Animated Series two-parter that inspired it all."Feat of Clay" is the origin story of Matt Hagan: a disfigured Hollywood actor addicted to a face cream that lets him reshape his own body, force-fed so much of it by the man who controlled his supply that he became something that could no longer be called human. It's a kids' cartoon. It goes pretty dark.This week Zach breaks down both parts of the classic BTAS two-parter, the one that created the definitive version of Clayface. One that blended Basil Karlo and Matt Hagan into a single tragic figure. Plus: the real Hollywood actors who inspired the character, why two different animation studios handled the two episodes and the talents of Ron Perlman, Ed Asner, and Ed Begley Jr. Mike's verdict: he's watching Batman: The Animated Series with his grandkids. Zach has never been more proud.Also covered this week:- Lon Chaney, Montgomery Clift, and the real tragedy behind Matt Hagan- The cream. We can't stop calling it the cream.- Poor Teddy.The Clayface film (directed by James Watkins, written by Mike Flanagan) is coming and now you'll know exactly where it's drawing from.Also dropping this week: our Clayface One Bad Day episode replay — the 2023 DC one-shot where a Hollywood actor becomes Clayface in a single very bad day.

This event, known for showcasing the biggest upcoming films and industry trends, has provided a wealth of information that fans and filmmakers alike are buzzing about. They begin their discussion with a fascinating look at DC Studios' upcoming project, Clayface. This film, which is being heralded as a body horror masterpiece, is penned by the talented Mike Flanagan, who is known for his ability to weave horror elements with rich character development. The direction is in the capable hands of James Watkins, whose previous works have demonstrated a keen eye for atmospheric storytelling. The guys analyze what this unique take on the classic villain could mean for the DC cinematic universe, particularly in how it might explore themes of identity and transformation in a way that resonates with contemporary audiences.Following this, the conversation shifts to Christopher Nolan's much-anticipated film, The Odyssey. This project promises to be a visually stunning reinterpretation of the classic tale, featuring a pivotal scene that showcases the legendary Trojan Horse.

They speculate on the film's premise and themes, considering how it might delve into folklore and mythology, potentially offering a fresh perspective on the werewolf legend. The chemistry between Taylor-Johnson and Depp is also a point of discussion, with the guys contemplating how their performances could elevate the film's narrative.As the episode progresses, the guys engage in a rapid-fire news segment that covers a plethora of upcoming projects that are generating buzz in the film community. They touch upon Evil Dead Burn, a new installment in the beloved horror franchise that promises to deliver the same thrills and chills that fans have come to expect. The conversation then shifts to Dune Part 3, where they discuss the potential for the continuation of Frank Herbert's epic saga and what it could mean for the characters and the expansive universe. They also touch on the intriguing title Avengers' Doomsday, speculating on how this new entry might reshape the Marvel Cinematic Universe and its heroes.Furthermore, the guys briefly discuss Digger, a project that has caught their attention, along with a new venture from J.J. Abrams that has yet to be fully unveiled. The anticipation surrounding Abrams' work is palpable, given his track record of creating compelling narratives that captivate audiences. Lastly, they wrap up the rapid-fire segment with a mention of Violent Night 2, a sequel that has fans eager to see how the story of Santa Claus in a violent showdown will unfold. Each of these topics fuels an engaging discussion, providing insights and predictions that keep listeners on the edge of their seats, eager for the cinematic experiences that await.Official Website: https://www.comesnaturallypodcast.comOfficial Merchandise: https://shop.spreadshirt.com/comes-naturally-podcast/iTunes: http://tinyurl.com/kqkgackFacebook: http://tinyurl.com/myovgm8Tumblr: http://tinyurl.com/m7a6mg9Twitter: @ComesNaturalPodYouTube: http://tiny.cc/5snxpy

We're back with another episode in our Mike Flanagan Rewind series, and this week we're diving deep into Midnight Mass—the haunting, slow-burn horror story that blends faith, grief, and something far more sinister. After serving four years in prison for a drunk driving accident that killed a young woman, Riley Flynn returns to Crockett Island—a struggling, isolated fishing community still reeling from an environmental disaster. Now disconnected from his faith, Riley finds himself at odds with the deeply religious townspeople, including his parents, his younger brother, and his former love, Erin Greene. Things begin to shift with the arrival of the mysterious and charismatic Father Paul Hill, a young priest filling in for the aging Monsignor Pruitt. As miracles seem to occur and devotion intensifies, unsettling events unfold across the island—strange sightings in the night, a growing sense of unease, and a horrifying discovery that signals something is deeply wrong beneath the surface. In this episode, we break down the premiere, explore the show's themes of religion, redemption, and fanaticism, and discuss why Mike Flanagan remains one of the most compelling voices in modern horror storytelling. Plus: a very serious debate—pancakes vs. waffles—and a moment of appreciation for the kitties of Crockett Island, who absolutely deserved better.

We're kicking things off with the chilling debut from writer-director Ian Tuason, Undertone. Nina Kiri stars as Evy, a skeptical paranormal podcaster who moves home to care for her dying mother. When she's sent a series of mysterious audio recordings, she discovers that some messages are better left undeciphered.Fun Flix Fact: Talk about a "personal" horror story—director Ian Tuason actually filmed the entire movie in his own childhood home! He drew inspiration from his real-life experiences as a caregiver, which adds a deeply unsettling layer of authenticity to Evy's isolation.Sound Check: You might want to listen to your nursery rhymes a bit more carefully after this. The film reveals a creepy hidden message in "Baa, Baa, Black Sheep" when played in reverse. We won't spoil what it says, but you'll never look at woolly jumpers the same way again!For our Anniversary Corner, we're celebrating 10 years of the film that turned the home-invasion genre on its head: Mike Flanagan's Hush. Since it hit screens in April 2016, this cat-and-mouse thriller has become a "must-watch" for horror fans.Fun Flix Fact: Director Mike Flanagan and lead actress Kate Siegel are actually married in real life! They co-wrote the script together by acting out the scenes in their own house to see which "jumps" and "hides" felt the most realistic.Silence is Golden: Flanagan's goal was to create a film "without dialogue." Out of the movie's 81-minute runtime, there are only about 15 minutes of spoken words, forcing the audience to rely entirely on visual cues and sound design—much like the film's deaf-mute protagonist, Maddie.Budget Brilliance: Proving you don't need Marvel-level money to make a hit, Hush was made for just $1 million. It's a masterclass in how to build unbearable tension with just one location and a handful of actors.And if that's not enough entertainment for you, we've even thrown in new trailers to watch and what you can catch on streaming. Press play for the friendliest film discussions this side of Hollywood!

It's a different kind of conversation this week and one we really think you're going to love. We're continuing our mini-series looking at four films from last year which were all adapted from the work of Stephen King. If we told you that THE LIFE OF CHUCK was adapted by Mike Flanagan from a novella by Stephen King, you'd probably imagine a drastically different movie than what it is.The Life of Chuck is unconventional both narratively and structurally. It's a story told in reverse, focusing on both the individual (Chuck, played by Tom Hiddleston) and the communal. It explores the wondrous mystery and stark fragility of life, including the ways we all influence each other and overlap our little private universes with one another. It's deeply emotional, aggressively non-cynical, and brimming with existential hope. We invite friends of the show Sarah Welch-Larson and Abby Olcese into a very open-hearted and frequently vulnerable conversation about spiritual, emotional, physical, and communal realities that we all encounter, and which often drive us through profound loneliness and into unimaginable hope. We found the discussion to be both challenging and ministering.We hope you'll find the same, and we hope you'll enjoy it.3:28 - Becoming Alien by Sarah Welch-Larson, Second Edition!Patron Only Segment: Whatcha Watchin' / Readin' / Listenin' To?15:37 - THE LIFE OF CHUCKSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

From Nightmare to Fan Fame: Heather Langenkamp's Hollywood Journey In this captivating episode of Reza Rifts, Keith sits down with one of horror cinema's most beloved and enduring icons Heather Langenkamp, the actress who gave the world Nancy Thompson in A Nightmare on Elm Street.  Far more than a trip down horror memory lane, this conversation is a genuine, wide-ranging exploration of what it means to build a life in Hollywood  from the grueling audition grind to the unexpected emotional weight of fame. Heather opens up about being cast by Wes Craven while still a student at Stanford University, what it was like to work alongside legends like Robert Englund, and how the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise became something far bigger and more meaningful than anyone could have predicted in 1984.  The conversation digs deep into the evolution of horror fandom how audiences have transformed from passive moviegoers into passionate, lifelong communities  and why Freddy Krueger resonates so deeply as a metaphor for the personal demons we all carry.  Heather also reflects on her I Am Nancy documentary, navigating career challenges as a woman in Hollywood, the surprising world of practical special effects through her company AFX Studio, and what she wishes she could tell her younger self.  Warm, funny, and full of genuine wisdom, this is the kind of conversation that reminds you why you fell in love with movies in the first place. Guest Bio Heather Langenkamp (born July 17, 1964, Tulsa, Oklahoma) is an American actress, filmmaker, businesswoman, and radio personality whose career has spanned more than four decades. A Stanford University student when she first auditioned for Wes Craven, Heather beat out over 200 actresses to land the role of Nancy Thompson in A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)  a performance that would make her one of the most recognizable faces in horror history. Notable Works: A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) — Nancy Thompson A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987) — Nancy Thompson Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994) — Herself Just the Ten of Us (1988–1990) — TV Sitcom American Horror Story: Freak Show (2014) The Midnight Club (2022) — Mike Flanagan's Netflix series I Am Nancy (2011) — Executive Producer & Star The Life of Chuck (2025) Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy (2010) Co-Founder, AFX Studio (practical special effects) Follow Heather:

Robert Longstreet is a respected actor who moves fluidly between indie films and genre work, showing a gift for playing complex, wounded, or morally ambiguous characters. He gained broader recognition recently for his performance as a grieving father in "The Haunting of Hill House," created by Mike Flanagan. Longstreet has since become a regular collaborator with Flanagan, appearing in projects like "Midnight Mass," where his portrayal of the troubled but deeply humane Joe Collie became one of the show's most poignant characters. On this episode, he talks about the psychological effects of some of the dark roles he's done and ponders if leaving "a pound of flesh" is necessary for the work. He calls directors not knowing how to talk to actors "a sin beyond measure," explains why good writing is so easy to memorize,  why he'd rather do a zoom audition than a self-tape, why he didn't want to play a psychopathic octogenarian woman in Todd Rohal's instant cult classic "Fuck My Son!" and struggled all the way through it, plus much more.

It's time we bid farewell to the Haunting of Bly Manor in our journey through the Mike Flanagan library.  As Viola drags Dani by the throat, Flora intervenes—reminding the Lady in the Lake of her long-lost daughter, Isabel. Viola takes Flora to the lake to drown her, but Dani sacrifices herself, inviting Viola's spirit to inhabit her body and freeing the trapped souls of Bly Manor. In the aftermath, Henry returns to raise the children, while Owen and Jamie discover Hannah's body in the well. Dani and Jamie leave for America to build a life together, but nine years later Viola's presence begins to surface. During a reunion in France, Owen reveals that Flora and Miles remember nothing of Bly Manor—only the happy parts of childhood. When Dani wakes with her hand around Jamie's throat, she realizes Viola's hold is growing stronger. To protect the woman she loves, Dani returns to Bly Manor and takes her place in the lake forever. The storyteller—revealed to be an older Jamie—finishes the tale at Flora's wedding reception, surrounded by the people who survived. Later that night, Jamie leaves the door open, still hoping Dani might return… and as she sleeps, a familiar hand rests gently on her shoulder.
