Episode 70: Once Upon a Cabin In The Woods

It's time again, for Dawn and Jen to go on a journey of re-discovery through one of horror's most beloved franchises: The Evil Dead. With difficult financing, disastrous location shoots, and being banned outright in several countries, Sam Raimi's The Evil Dead should never have worked. 

And yet it did.

The Evil Dead franchise changed the face of horror cinema forever, landing it in the hearts of millions of gore-loving fans and introducing the world to the macabre brilliance of Raimi and his star, Bruce Campbell.

This episode is the first in a series that will cover all three Evil Dead movies and the 2013 remake. Stay tuned.

Episode 68: A Podcast Down Under

With Jen in Australia, your hosts think it's high time we talked about some Australian horror and took a close look at a problematic favorite: Storm Warning. According to the box office, none of you saw it, but we have a strange affection for it, despite it's rather glaring and offensive flaws.

Speaking of: this movie regrettably comes with a hefty sexual assault warning so be aware. 

We would also like to apologize for the occasional sound issues, apparently we've done in another mic cord, they're dropping like redshirts.

Thanks always to The Shape for the intro and outro music. Now also featuring, "Fritz Was Here" by YoshiBlade (via OCRemix).

The "How to Speak Australian" clip was from hijosh on You Tube. You can view the full video HERE.

Episode 67: Behind the Mask: A Podcast Long Overdue

We've been talking about this movie for so long, we almost can't believe we haven't done a full episode on it. But we haven't, so this episode, the Women In Caskets take a moment to rave about another favorite. So let's join our favorite documentarian, Taylor Gentry, as she goes Behind the Mask, and witnesses The Rise of Leslie Vernon.

Spoiler alert: It doesn't go well for her. Good for us, bad for her.

Thanks always to The Shape for the intro music. Now also featuring, "Fritz Was Here" by YoshiBlade (via OCRemix).

This episode's outro was "Psycho Killer" by the Talking Heads.

Episode 64: The Shape of Guillermo del Toro

What do Gothic romance, fairy tale and old Hollywood have in common?

They make up the heart and soul of Guillermo del Toro's trilogy of masterpieces: The Devil's Backbone, Pan's Labyrinth, and The Shape of Water. The master himself calls these films his cinematic soul, so let's take some time to peel back the layers and see how these three films look at reason, emotion, and fantasy, enthralling the audience (and your delighted) hosts.

Note: There were a few factual errors in this podcast. We know, we goofed, Dawn can't read her own handwriting. So here's the biggest mea culpa in podcast history and a list of corrections:

Early on, we mistakenly suggested that the Spanish Civil War was concurrent to WWII.  The Spanish Civil War technically ended before WWII started, although the foundations of the Civil War mirrored the overall rise of fascism in Europe and after the war was technically over, the fighting continued in more remote areas and characters make multiple references to WWII in Pan's Labyrinth. 

We got some dates wrong, we said The Devil's Backbone took place around 1944.  That should have been Pan's Labyrinth. The Devil's Backbone took place in 1939, during the last year of the war.

Javier Navarrete has worked with Guillermo before, just not on The Shape of Water - he was the composer for The Devil's Backbone. Regardless, he's awesome, listen to his work on Byzantium.

And last (but probably not least), Jacinto cuts Carlos' cheek early in The Devil's Backbone, not Jaime's. Names, am I right? (Probably not.)

Lastly, if you want to send us your treatment for Sleepless in Seattle meets The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, we will love you forever.

Featuring selections from the soundtracks of The Devil's Backbone and Pan's Labyrinth by Javier Navarrete and The Shape of Water by Alexandre Desplat.

Thanks always to The Shape for the intro and outro music. Now also featuring, "Marowak's Revenge" by YoshiBlade (via OCRemix).

Episode 60: You Better Watch Better Watch Out

Happy Holidays!

In honor of the season, the Women In Caskets take a long overdue look at a previous Fantastic Fest Favorite, Better Watch Out (formerly Safe Neighborhood). It's a ho-ho-horrific home invasion gone completely bonkers and we thought it was a ton of fun.
