This week on Horror Joy, Jeff and Brian wrestle with the dualities of fear in Jonathan Demme's The Silence of the Lambs and Osgood Perkins' Longlegs. They dissect the psychological and gender horrors lurking within The Silence of the Lambs, contrasting it with the mythological and satanic elements of Longlegs.They examine the tangled webs of desire, identity, and rationalization, revealing:·       The transphobia in The Silence of the Lambs and how thoughts on gender have changed·       The rich material world of Jonathan Demme's film·       The failed mythology of Longlegs and The connection to the satanic panic in its Devil-Made-Me-Do-It tale·       Whether Longlegs lives up to the comparisons to The Silence of the Lambs (it does not)So, grab your badge and join us as we follow the cryptic trail of evasive mass murderers.

If somebody offers you pie and philosophy, just say no. Heretic takes two unsuspecting Mormon missionaries and throws them into the creepiest dinner invitation of their lives, hosted by none other than Hugh Grant in full sinister mode. What starts as a seemingly innocent theological debate quickly turns into a psychological nightmare of faith, fear, and manipulation—with a side of homemade pie. Directed by Scott Beck & Bryan Woods (*the minds behind A Quiet Place), Heretic is a slow-burning, nerve-twisting horror thriller that plays on faith, control, and the dangers of trusting the wrong stranger. With Sophie Thatcher and Chloe East trying to escape the unholy grip of Grant's Mr. Reed, this film delivers unsettling tension without needing ghosts, gore, or cheap jump scares. In this episode of TruVue Podcast, we break down how Heretic weaponizes silence, persuasion, and eerie hospitality to create a psychological horror experience that lingers long after the credits roll. We bring the barbershop talk to the box office because it's not about the review—it's the conversation with the crew. We keep it real on the reels, so grab a slice of pie (but not from Mr. Reed) and let's talk about Heretic!

MOVIE DISCUSSION:  Kathryn joins Melvin in discussing an early Junji Ito live-action adaption, Uzumaki!

(PATREON EXCLUSIVE)Kathryn and Melvin are huge fans of Junji Ito, both of which having read his manga for close to 10 years. The two talk about what it is about his work that captures their attention.In introducing Uzumaki, the two can't avoid it: They have to talk about the editing first.The setting feels fresh and "lived in", and even the various characters within the story feel as though they've known each other for a long time.Melvin wonders about the correlation between films about social issues, or that have social awareness, and the size of the community within the fiction (or, the reality they're based on). Kathryn shares her thoughts.There's one scene in Uzumaki that is so hauntingly patient that it really affected Melvin. He describes the scene, and the two explore it together.Discussing how Kirie and Shuichi are roughly the same characters between both the manga and the movie, but how what they represent in the story in relation to the spirals is different.Recommendations:The Devil's Candy (2016) (Movie)The Spiral (Original Title: Rasen) (1998) (Movie)MAILBAG: Send questions with your First Name and we'll answer them in future episodes!
