Considering the horror noir subgenre contains movies like Psycho, Cat People, Angel Heart, Night Of The Hunter, Mulholland Drive, Curse Of The Demon, Les Diaboliques, and Wolfen, horror noir (though little talked about) definitely deserves more love.

Some horror movies, like THE THING, are great. Some horror movies, like FEARDOTCOM, are terrible. Some horror movie, like MANOS THE HANDS OF FATE, are so bad they're good. But SOME horror movies aren't that good but DO SOMETHING SO INTERESTING that they shouldn't be ignored. On this episode we're going to talk about 4 bad horror movies that do interesting things. One of these movies proves how important it is to get the NAME of your horror villain right. One of these might be the greatest horror movie CAST to ever make a terrible film. One of these will show the supreme strength of a horror sub-genre, and one of these is an incredible take on what might be the MOST IMPORTANT theme in horror circa 2023 (even if the movie itself is a hot mess in a lot of places). Let's talk about it!

Some movies just want more than to entertain you, they want to come AT you.

Come for some really angry filmmaking, stay for a cursed movie with really bad karma, leave knowing that it's a wonderfull life.

I was wrong. The best horror movie of 2019 was a film I HATED when I saw it in the theater, but this damn movie won't leave me alone. I must be my own worst enemy. Is it Brightburn? Is it Crawl? Is it Platform? Is it Doctor Sleep? I'm betting you haven't guessed what it is. How much am I betting? I've got 5 on it. Have you ever changed your mind completely about a horror movie? Gone from hating it to loving it, or vice versa? Let's talk about it. PLUS, we're giving you our Hidden Horror Gem of the week, a devilish (and crazy!) British classic from the 60's with a doomed star and one of horror's most beloved doctors...

Some horror movies just get more and more relevant over time. John Carpenter's They Live and its bleak view of the soullessness of culture, Videodrome's cynicism about visual entertainment, Frankenstein's warnings about the perils of playing God...

What does it take to make a horror movie that lives forever? And what are some horror movies that once were relevant and have now faded away? Let's talk about it!
