POPULARITY
Wake Wood (2009), The Wind (2018), Apostle (2018) Folk horror has its roots in tales of witches and paganism, stretching back centuries. In cinema, the term "folk horror" was first coined by Rod Cooper in Kine Weekly to describe the 1971 classic Blood on Satan's Claw. However, the themes that define folk horror—witchcraft, ancient rituals, and the eerie power of nature—have been present since the earliest days of film. A prime example is Benjamin Christensen's Häxan (1922), which delves into witchcraft and age-old rites. Regardless of its origins or definitions, folk horror has endured over time, weaving its way through the history of cinema. In recent decades, the genre has experienced a remarkable resurgence, not just in the United States but globally. This renewed interest may owe much to Kier-La Janisse's expansive 2021 documentary, Woodlands Dark and Days Bewitched, which shone a spotlight on the subgenre and sparked widespread conversation. With the recent release of Volume Two of Severin's All the Haunts Be Ours box sets, now seems the perfect time to explore some of the standout modern folk horror films from the past two decades. So, venture with us into the remote villages, pagan rites, and shadowy woods where all the horrors sit waiting for you in the dark corners where people rarely go. Films mentioned in this episode: Abigail (2024), Alucarda (1977), Apostle (2018), Birth/Re-birth (2023), Blood on Satan's Claw (1971), Cuckoo (2024), Dracula (2006), Five Nights at Freddy's (2023), Flesh and the Fiends (1960), Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire (2024), Isolation (2005), Pet Sematary (1989), Rosemary's Baby (1968), Underworld (2003), Wake Wood (2009), The Wicker Man (1973), The Wind (2018), Witchfinder General (1968), Woodlands Dark and Days Bewitched (2021), Zombie (1979)

Breaking the Glass Slipper: Women in science fiction, fantasy, and horror
When the film The Blood on Satan's Claw came out in 1971, reviewer Rod Cooper called it “a study in folk horror.” In 2003, when director Piers Haggard was talking to Fangoria magazine about his film, he also described it as a folk horror film. In the 1970s, the subgenre of folk horror was particularly popular among film makers. Known as “the unholy […] The post Folk horror – with Tori Bovalino first appeared on Breaking the Glass Slipper.
@rodjcooper, owner of @the_movement_collective comes on the Passive Hang! The Movement Collective is a movement gym in Newcastle, Australia. I've known Rod for a couple of years now, and the best way to describe him is that whenever you speak with Rod, you feel lifted, elevated, inspired. Rod shares his practice - what does it actually look like, now? Having learnt from many different teachers, and having such a diverse practice, it was interesting to hear how he structures his training time, and what things have worked for him. Rod covers different approaches to strength, mobility and skill development. It hasn't been all smooth sailing - Rod has had his fair share of significant injuries - including serious knee trauma. We touch on his physical recovery, and how he approaches the mental side. When your job is movement, what do you do when you can't move? Thanks to Rod for sharing so openly. Can't wait to get back to TMC and train in the space! For all those who can't get to Newcastle, TMC have just launched their online app, and Rod also offers online coaching. Check it out.

In this episode of The Candid Fitness, I chat with Rod Cooper who is a movement coach and founder of The Movement Collective (TMC), a fitness and movement facility in Newcastle which is quite a unique and unconventional set up for a gym. It is an amazing place for everyone to workout together whilst being part of a highly supportive community. I met Rod in 2019 when I was living in Brisbane (Australia) and travelled all the way to Newcastle with the sole purpose of spending time in TMC and learning from the team. It surely was a great learning experience and I had a wonderful time there. Rod has changed career paths multiple times - from being a Chef to a Brewer, making and tasting beers, and now following his passion for all things "Movement". It's intriguing how he embraces change, tackles obstacles and is always looking forward to new challenges in life. In this episode, we discuss his journey and deep dive into his mindset as he goes through each of his career transitions. Coincidentally he has spent six years in each of these different roles as a Chef, Brewer and now a Movement Coach & Business Owner.

Jeni Steep on the podcast! Jeni (@jenimoves) runs the Movement Collective (@the_movement_collective) in Newcastle with Rod Cooper (@rodjcooper), an amazing facility that is bringing movement to the masses in a fun, approachable and exciting way. When I first went there I was amazed at the energy I felt from all the members and the space - it’s like a giant adult’s playground. When you go on her page you’ll see this amazingly flexible woman, most likely upside down in the splits. Jeni wasn’t always like this - and she shares her journey from a mining job, into becoming a movement teacher. It hasn’t always been glamorous, and I think that’s something common to a lot of us - although Instagram represents glamorous things, for the most part, we are covered in sweat, tears, and a lot of failed attempts. What you see can be the finished result, all smiles - but that betrays all the physical and emotional work that's been done. There’s a powerful lesson where Jeni reminds us to be excited of the things we achieve - getting that first muscle up, that first handstand hold, that first press - sometimes, when it feels like you are just ticking off “basics” - you can forget that these are actually huge milestones. We need to remember to celebrate these wins. You can find Jeni at www.movelaughlive.com or www.themovementcollective.net
