Well, we've been gone for a lot longer than anticipated listeners and I've missed you! Thankfully it's been for a good reason. I've been off making some movies.

We sure could use your help keeping the show independent and bringing you even more in-depth conversations with horror's finest. As a thank you for your contribution we will be offering exclusive bonus content, prize packs filled with movies, book, autographed merch and more. You can find the link to our Patreon below or in our bio. Thank you for support!Now, let's get down to it.Our guest today wrote and directed what in my opinion, may be the most underrated movies in recent film history. I know the term “underrated” is often overused but certainly not in this case.Based on comic maestro Cullen Bunn's hit series “The Empty Man”, the film version came out in 2020 and was sadly overlooked. And folks, if you haven't seen it, do yourself a favor and watch it NOW. I don't mind. Pause this and go watch it.What you will see is not only one of the most truly gripping, atmospheric, legitimately unnerving and beautifully made genre films in recent memory. It will also be one of those movies I promise you will want to talk to someone about as soon as the credits roll. This is a really important genre film.Joining me to discuss the film including the many ways in which is was so terribly mishandled by the studio system and the many other challenges that went into making “The Empty Man” is the films writer and director, David Prior.David and I discuss his vision for the film version of the comic, working with a great lead actor like James Badge Dale to craft a character who is never quite who he seems and what went so terribly wrong with the films release to the point that a movie made by a major studio with a reasonable budget as far as horror films standards go didn't even receive any sort of physical media release. That's right. Not even a barebones DVD. For fans of the movie, this episode may be the most insightful look into the film you can find as there's no commentary track with David or any of the extras we've become accustomed to when we want to learn about how a movie got made. And for those of you haven't experienced the film yet, brace yourself. At one time we were one. We will all be one again. This message comes to you directly from… the empty man. Oh, and writer/director David Prior!Please show us your support at patreon.com/spillyourguts ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
Gather Round is here and the team has already been soaking it up - they start the show by chatting to Adelaide coach Matthew Nicks. Isaac has noticed something about Jay Z on Fox Footy, then it's The Chief's Agenda - as Tom Stewart is a late out, and Noah Balta is available for the Tigers. Geelong assistant coach Steven King joins the team from the boundary, JB interrupts proceedings to lay the smackdown on Jay Z, and Isaac has a brand new segment - with two possible names. Kathy's Questions has a distinctly Gather Round feel, then Aussie cricketer Alex Carey is in the box with Callum Ferguson to talk about SA's Sheffield Shield win, and a big schedule of cricket for the Aussies.

Something is hunting Tarker's Mills. Each month, under the full moon, someone dies. Brutally. No one sees the beast — but everyone feels the fear. In this quiet Maine town, the cycle of the moon… is a cycle of terror.IN THIS EPISODE: There's no better source of horror fiction than the King of Horror himself, Stephen King. Each chapter of “Cycle of the Werewolf” is a short story unto itself. It tells the story of a werewolf haunting a small town as the moon turns full once every month. It was originally published as a limited-edition hardcover in 1983 by Land of Enchantment, and then in 1985 as a mass-market trade paperback by Signet. If it sounds familiar to you, it's because Stephen King also wrote the screenplay for its film adaptation, Silver Bullet which was released to theaters in 1985 – although if you have seen the film, you won't be disappointed in the book, as there is a lot that changes from the original pages before it hit the big screen. The movie received mixed reviews at the time, but has since achieved cult status in the US, after appearing on television regularly. In 1985, Signet Books re-issued Cycle of the Werewolf under the title Silver Bullet in an edition that included King's screenplay alongside the original novella. This re-published edition also included a foreword by King, recounting the impetus of the novella and the background of the film adaptation. In this episode of Weird Darkness, however, I will be narrating the original novella. The book, at 127 pages, is technically a novella rather than a novel, but there is no shortage of scares, I assure you. The novella wasn't even supposed to be a novella at first. The entire concept started out, believe it or not, as a calendar by the Zavista company, with illustrations by renowned comic-book artist Bernie Wrightson. Each month of the proposed calendar featured a drawing by Wrightson complete with a short vignette by Stephen King. But King found the size of the vignettes, which were both small and extremely limited, to be problematic for his writing style. So he proceeded instead with the short novel and had it published by Land of Enchantment in 1983, but kept Wrightson's illustrations for the publication because they were so beautifully or horrifically brilliant. In the author's notes at the back of the novella, King admits to taking liberties with the lunar cycle. For example, if a full moon was on New Year's Day, another one wouldn't occur on Valentine's Day, but these dates are widely recognized in January and February. He explains that this was done to focus the relevant months more clearly in the readers' minds. But then, this is fiction, so of course liberties are going to be taken – and who are we to question Stephen King?SOURCES AND REFERENCES FROM THE EPISODE…Cycle of the Werewolf” by Steven King: https://amzn.to/2YNP4u6Weird Darkness theme by Alibi Music Library. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =(Over time links seen above may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

The Western welfare state model is beset with structural, financial, and moral crises. So-called scroungers, cheats, and disability fakers persistently occupy the centre of public policy discussions, even as official statistics suggest that relatively small amounts of money are lost to such schemes. In Fraudulent Lives: Imagining Welfare Cheats from the Poor Law to the Present (McGill-Queen's University Press, 2024) Dr. Steven King focuses on the British case in the first ever long-term analysis of the scale, meaning, and consequences of welfare fraud in Western nations. King argues that an expectation of dishonesty on the part of claimants was written into the basic fabric of the founding statutes of the British welfare state in 1601, and that nothing has subsequently changed. Efforts throughout history to detect and punish fraud have been superficial at best because, he argues, it has never been in the interests of the three main stakeholders – claimants, the general public, and officials and policymakers – to eliminate it. Tracing a substantial underbelly of fraud from the seventeenth century to today, Dr. King finds remarkable continuities and historical parallels in public attitudes towards the honesty of welfare recipients – patterns that hold true across Western welfare states. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Stanley Kubrick's The Shining is one of the most discussed films in cinema history. The new and alarming documentary, A Clockwork Shining, suggests that the film is really about mind control and how larger forces manipulate us. The eccentric director ignored the nuances of Steven King's book “The Shining” and replaced the initial themes of the story to fit into subliminal symbolism and dialogue as seen with the main character, Jack, played by Jack Nicholson. The documentary delves into the theory that Jack falls into the trap of what can only be determined as trauma-based mind control. In most conspiracy circles, it is believed that Kubrick used systematic implantation of predictive programming for the express purpose of conditioning the masses for future large-scale psychological operations. Tonight on Ground Zero (7-10 pm, pacific time) Clyde Lewis talks with Ryder Lee about REDRUM – ALL WORK AND NO PLAY MAKES JACK AN MK ULTRA VICTIM.Originally Broadcast On 12/4/24
In this episode we will be kicking off the first of two episodes celebrating Santa and the darkest evening of the year. This episode looking at the kick ass remake of a beloved Christmas horror classic and our next episode being our Christmas special where we have something very special under the tree for you. But I mustn't say more than that right now.On to the show!My guest today makes lean, mean, kick ass horror films that get your blood pumping almost as much as it does on screen. His films often lean into the action side of the genre and are a ride from the the get-go. He's one of the best in the business for staging a great set piece and his ability to move between action beats and scares works every time.His new film “Werewolves” is in theatres now and I freakin' love this movie. It has everything… werewolves, Lou Diamond Phillips, a child in danger, bodies ripped in half, shirtless Frank Grillo (I just turned into Stefan from SNL). Go see it! “Werewolves”… tell your friends!Today we are joined by the unstoppable Steven C. Miller!Steven and I get our jolly on by first discussing his loose remake of “Silent Night, Deadly Night” which was was just called “Silent Night”. A very different film than the beloved 1984 classic, it's a balls to the wall killer Santa flick and we talk about how it all came together.We also discuss how “Werewolves” came to be, how Frank Grillo is just as on point in intimate character scenes as he is at killing the fuck out of werewolves and how to walk the line of scares and action without leaning too much into one or the other.So let's sharpen our candy canes and howl at the super moon with director Steven C. Miller! ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Apologies we've been out of commission for a couple weeks. Along with the cheer and merriment of the season comes flues, colds and coughs and basically our whole team was bed bound for a bit. If I still sound a bit scratchy, well hopefully it just adds to the shows creepy vibe. And having your voice drop an octave sounds good anyway right?Well let's get right into it shall we?Our guest in this episode is one of the great visionary directors currently working in horror. His work bares the signature of a director who is not only a master of his craft but also someone has has never lost touch with an almost childlike sense of imagination, as he often explores the dark side of folklore and fantasy. Similar to a filmmaker like Guillermo del Toro (so it's no surprise they have collaborated), his marriage of the fantastic and the macabre gives him a distinctive style.With his first true feature, the modern classic “Troll Hunter”, he came out guns-a-blazing and hasn't let up since.In this episode we are joined by the virtuosic director Andre Ovredal.Andre and I sat down to talk about why he chose to follow up the decidedly lighter in tone hit “Troll Hunter”, with the disturbing and almost chamber play like (not to mentioning absolutely terrifying) “The Autopsy of Jane Doe”. The challenges of adapting a beloved book like “Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark” for the screen and why a very brief section of the legendary Bram Stoker's Dracula about the “Last voyage of the Demeter” was a story that HAD to be told on film.Let's visit the world of the strange and the fantastic with director Andre Ovredal! ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Few subjects in European welfare history attract as much attention as the nineteenth-century English and Welsh New Poor Law. Its founding statute was considered the single most important piece of social legislation ever enacted, and at the same time, the coming of its institutions - from penny-pinching Boards of Guardians to the dreaded workhouse - has generally been viewed as a catastrophe for ordinary working people. Until now it has been impossible to know how the poor themselves felt about the New Poor Law and its measures, how they negotiated its terms, and how their interactions with the local and national state shifted and changed across the nineteenth century. In Their Own Write: Contesting the New Poor Law, 1834–1900 (McGill-Queen's University Press, 2022) exposes this hidden history. Based on an unparalleled collection of first-hand testimony - pauper letters and witness statements interwoven with letters to newspapers and correspondence from poor law officials and advocates - the book reveals lives marked by hardship, deprivation, bureaucratic intransigence, parsimonious officialdom, and sometimes institutional cruelty, while also challenging the dominant view that the poor were powerless and lacked agency in these interactions. The testimonies collected in these pages clearly demonstrate that both the poor and their advocates were adept at navigating the new bureaucracy, holding local and national officials to account, and influencing the outcomes of relief negotiations for themselves and their communities. Fascinating and compelling, the stories presented in In Their Own Write amount to nothing less than a new history of welfare from below. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Fascinating and compelling, the stories presented in In Their Own Write amount to nothing less than a new history of welfare from below. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Few subjects in European welfare history attract as much attention as the nineteenth-century English and Welsh New Poor Law. Its founding statute was considered the single most important piece of social legislation ever enacted, and at the same time, the coming of its institutions - from penny-pinching Boards of Guardians to the dreaded workhouse - has generally been viewed as a catastrophe for ordinary working people. Until now it has been impossible to know how the poor themselves felt about the New Poor Law and its measures, how they negotiated its terms, and how their interactions with the local and national state shifted and changed across the nineteenth century.

Cooper and Nolan are making a break for it this week when they cover THE RUNNING MAN! Based on a novel by Steven King, this action packed piece of 80s sci-fi makes some surprisingly accurate predictions about the future, and features what is arguably an underrated Arnold Schwarzenegger performance. Is that enough to overcome the paper thin characters, questionable fashion choices, and heavy handed social commentary of the era? Maybe not, but the guys are having a great time either way. So get ready to hit the ground running; this episode (featuring a beer from Dawson Trail Craft Brewing) is one game you'll be glad you played.
Sʹil est un film emblématique du 7e art, cʹest celui-ci ! Shining, de Stanley Kubrick sorti en 1980. Particulier, il inscrit lʹhorreur au rang dʹart. Cʹest un film qui fait trembler des générations de spectateurs et de spectatrices et craindre à jamais les séjours en montagne. Shining, cʹest tout simplement culte ! Le film éclaire non seulement lʹœuvre du romancier Stephen King…oui on dit Steven King et pas Stephen King… et ajoute un chef-dʹœuvre de plus au réalisateur Stanley Kubrick, tout en propulsant Jack Nicholson dans le royaume des superstars. Son cri à glacer le sang, une hache à la main, Hereʹs Johnny, est un des moments les plus mémorables de lʹhistoire du cinéma. A lʹécran, on vous lʹa dit, Jack Nicholson, mais aussi Shelley Duvall et Danny Lloyd pour incarner les personnages de ce thriller pour le moins malaisant dans cet hôtel accroché aux nuages, qui sʹappelle lʹOverlook. Comme à son habitude, Stanley Kubrick travaille sur des thèmes qui lui sont chers : lʹenfermement, la folie, la désintégration de la famille. A travers de nombreuses métaphores stylistiques, il sʹempare dʹun récit de fantômes et livre, grâce à lʹadaptation de la romancière Diane Johnson, un récit si touffu quʹil alimente tous les fantasmes possibles. Quant à lʹauteur du roman, Stephen King, il nʹest pas très content de voir ce quʹa fait Kubrick de son histoire. Mais on vous racontera tout ça. Quand le film sort, il est plutôt mal reçu par le public qui le boude, mais cʹest pour mieux sʹinscrire dans la légende du cinéma. Shining est aujourdʹhui considéré comme un classique que toutes et tous devraient avoir vu.

Another Halloween has come and gone, and I hope you all had sufficiently spooky time. Lots of candy and fake blood and sexy costumes…why can't it be officially Halloween week? Soon it will be that most festive of holidays and I have to say, I love that one as much (full disclosure maybe more) because the sinister side of Christmas is masked by the most wholesome of veneers. We'll have lots of Christmas episodes for you unwrap but that's still a couple weeks out so in the meantime, we return you to our regularly scheduled programming.In this episode we are joined by one of the busiest guys in the world of horror filmmaking. He has produced a series of films that have become huge hits financially and created a new slasher icon in the mold of Freddy or Pennywise.He has a new film out that he directed titled “Stream”, and it has nearly every horror icon you can think of is in the cast (though friend of the podcast and genre royalty Jeffrey Combs really gets to shine here).The film also features and appearance by a genre legend that we have just lost, the formidable Tony Todd. I had the great privilege of having a friendship with Tony for almost 20 years and his talent, humour, thoughtfulness and kindness was unmatched. So, this episode is for Tony. Who loved his craft. Who loved movies, the people that made them and the people that watched them.Back to “Stream”, it's a raucous, funny, gory, inventive occasionally touching movie that brings the goods and then some. And again, there's the fantastic Jeffrey Combs performance! “ Stream” is streaming now.Joining us to talk about producing the hijinks of Art the Clown in “The Terrifier” films and taking on directing “Stream” is producer/director Michale Leavy. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
Happy Halloween!!! Welcome to the annual Spill your guts Halloween special. I will be guiding you through this dark maze of tales filled with the ghastly and ghoulish. To celebrate this most fiendish of holidays we step away from our usual format to bring you tales of terror from various beloved writers and performers that we think make for a fun episode of the macabre and spooky that truly embraces the spirt of All Hallows' Eve.Before we get to our spine-tingling tales, I want to take a moment to talk with you about an important charity that we are working with, The Gatehouse.The Gatehouse provides peer support and counselling resources for adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse and their support persons. They are a registered charity operating in Toronto for in person services and online across Canada; survivors can join in virtual programs. Survivors of sexual abuse need to know that healing is possible and that it is never too late to make the call to ask for help in your healing journey from childhood sexual abuse. So many survivors across Canada are suffering in silence; many do not know that help exists!Please visit thegatehouse.org for more information and while you're there hit the “Donate Now” button to make a contribution. If you or someone you know is a survivor of childhood sexual abuse, you are not alone and you there is help for you.Now, the leaves are falling, the air is crisp, and the smell of carved pumpkins is in the air. It's Halloween. A time for mayhem. Join me now as we gather around the campfire for stories that embody the menace and mystery of Halloween. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
The horror genre, particularly the slasher part of it, has a long-standing history of “final girls”. Many of them brilliant and iconic and for good reason. My guest today has had the rare privilege of becoming one of the few great final guys in a series that has established its place in the horror hall of fame.He has also starred in many other horror films, most fiercely independent ones, and even directed one. He's been in plenty of non-horror films as well including working with auteurs such as David Fincher and Christopher Nolan (with whom he has worked with several times). He has evaded being typecast and always brings the kind of gravity and thoughtfulness that makes his presence in any film a highlight. Maybe the best way I can describe him and his contributions to the genre is to say that if he's in something, I'm going to see it. I don't need to know anything more about the film than that for it to become something I'll watch. It's a system that thus far has served me well as he has given some of my personal favourite performances and led me to some films that I admire that I may not have seen otherwise.My guest today is Josh Stewart.Many of you know Josh from his role as Arkin in the beloved films “The Collector” and “The Collection” (there's a 3rd on its way at long last). Arkin immediately became an outlier in pantheon of horror leads in that not only is he a rather reluctant hero (if you can call him that at all) but he is relatable in that he has is own real-life problems and a psychopath, who sets up an elaborate series of traps that would make Jigsaw proud, seriously screws with his day. It's a quiet and heavy hitting performance and one of the great ones in the history of horror.Let's pull up a chair with one of genres finest actors, Josh Stewart! ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

It's an adaptation of a Steven King novel of the same name, and tells the story of a couple spicing up their marriage with bondage and a remote location. When the husband suddenly dies, leaving his wife handcuffed to the bed frame, it's up to her and the ghosts in her mind to find her way out.

Our first guest of season 4 has been on the show once before to discuss his work and the then recently released, now a genre favourite, “Psycho Goreman”. His work continues to be both a love letter to the 80's genre films that inspired him but also a voice that is distinctly his own.His newest film, “Frankie Freako”, about Connor, who bored with life, decides to shake things up by inviting some mischievous goblins into his home, has already become a hit on the festival circuit and hits theatres October 4th. I love the film and I can wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who has a place in their hearts for the movies like Ghoulies, Puppet Master and anything by the great little monster maker, John Carl Beuchler.

SERIES 3 EPISODE 29: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: Trump's newest threat: quote: “the bullets are flying, and it will only get worse!” There WERE no bullets on Sunday, other than those fired by the Secret Service. There was no line of sight for any shots. There are thus far no charges other than gun possession and the reality of the case suggests there may never be. The man who voted for Trump in 2016 and wanted to shoot or shoot at hm in 2024 didn't even make the slightest attempt to resist arrest. Trump knows he was never in real danger. In fact he was genuinely put out that they wouldn't let him finish the round of golf he was cheating through when the would-be almost sorta kinda assassination attempt didn't-actually-take-place. JD Vance then followed with a tortured demand that America either let Trump do what he wants - including blaming the migrants for the security failures around him - including lying about the migrants - including destroying Springfield Ohio - or accept an America in which there's something wrong with falsely accusing beleaguered people with eating pets and those who make such accusations are subject to censorship and censorship inevitably leads to a bullet in the brain. Vance really said all this. And it all comes back to those ten words: “the bullets are flying, and it will only get worse!” Only getting worse, of course, is exactly what Trump wants. Any similarity between this madman and the president played by Martin Sheen in the Steven King film “The Dead Zone”: “The missiles are flying. Hallelujah, Hallelujah!” PLUS: Inside the attempts to defend yourself against political violence and the awful truth that you really can't, and based on my experience during 2006 when I repeatedly received mailings of fake anthrax, much of what we assume is security is actually just security theater. B-Block (35:10) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: The leader of a Trumpler Youth Group named Brilyn Hollyhand thinks Trump was endangered by a "riffle." Speaker Mike Johnson's thumb is fine but Trump seems to be suffering from thumb erectile dysfunction. And his swipe at Taylor Swift may have cost him the support of Patrick Mahomes' wife Brittany because hatred and racism is cool but insulting Tay Tay is a bridge too far. C-Block (41:45) A SPECIAL SPORTSCENTRAL CENTER UPDATE: Baseball's annual suicide attempt. As the World Series TV audience shrinks to 10% of what it was fun 1978, what does the game need?

Hello Spill your guts listeners! This is your host Kevin Lane wishing you a happy Friday the 13th!The show will be returning with our season 4 premiere on October 1 but in the mean time, we thought it might be fun to celebrate this most unlucky of days by revisiting our season 1 episode with Jason Vorhees arch nemesis, Tommy Jarvis. In Friday the 13th part 6: Jason Lives, Tommy Jarvis and Jason have the ultimate showdown and though Tommy had been played by two other actors prior to Jason Lives, Thom Mathews has become synonymous with character.Now, I'm going to go ahead and guess if you're listening to Spill your guts that you're a collector of physical media. Of course you are. You have to be. You're a horror fan. For our Canadian listeners, our beloved sponsor Cinema 1 is bringing back their 3-day Friday the 13th Horror Sale from September 13th to 15th.

We'll be taking a couple weeks to get things ready for a very VERY big season 4. Just wait until you see what we have in store for every horror fans favourite month of year. I'm so excited I could just burst! Like that guy in “Scanners”. What are some other movies where someone just bursts? Anyway, thank you to our amazing team and our sponsors, Audio Process and Cinema 1, for another season of sitting down with horrors best and brightest and spilling guts. Now, let's get into it.For any actor, playing a major character on a tv series that not only garners tons of adoring fans but also enters into the pop culture zeitgeist and becomes a phenomenon is a major achievement. Especially when their character is a particular fan favourite and ends up in video games, comic books, made into toys and more. Then you add the element of that series enduring the test of time to become inarguably classic television.I'll one up that now. How about doing that twice?Our guest in this episode has a vast filmography of dynamic and versatile roles but her performance as vampire Darla on “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” and its spinoff series “Angel” and as “Rita”, the wife of everyones favourite serial killer on the Showtime sensation “Dexter”, have made her a true genre star.In this episode we are joined by the radiant and brilliant Julie Benz!Julie sat down to talk with me about getting her start working on the George Romero produced, Dario Argento directed segment of the film “Two Evil Eyes”, when she realized that Buffy was becoming an important series, the benefits of working on two shows back to back that both had stars, Sarah Michelle Gellar and David Boreanaz respectively, that were also great leaders. We talk about the excitement of getting cast to work opposite a virtuosic actor like Michael C. Hall and be a part of a critical darling like Dexter but also the heartbreak and feeling of betrayal that came later when she was written off the show.I have to say that personally I have been a longstanding fan of Julie's being a hardcore Buffy/Angel fan and then later a “Dexter” devotee. Julie is the kind of actor and person that anyone who speaks to people about their craft as a profession dreams of having as a guest. As thoughtful as she is open and real and man, is she ever a lovely human being. Ladies and gentleman, Julie Benz! ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

This week Shannon fills us in on the kinda sweet history and spooky present of Colorado's famous Stanley Hotel.
