This month, I am dissecting two horror films from indie filmmaker Dustin Mills, Her Name Was Torment (2014) and Her Name Was Torment II: Agony (2016). Blending cult conspiracies, angels, serial killing, corpse banging, and solid gore, these films give you a look into the filthy, perverse world of female necrophiliacs. And we like it! My guest for this episode is Robert Clark! Robert is the host of the Creepy And Geeky podcast. A show which explores horror and other genre films through casual con...

Welcome to Kelly’s Taboo Terrors, a monthly podcast that explores the transgressive side of cinema. These movies, and discussions, are not for the faint of heart so listener's discretion is strongly advised. This month, I am tackling a very explicit and interesting film by famed Italian extreme horror filmmaker, Domiziano Cristopharo - eROTik (2018). Portraying the loneliness of queerness and mental illness, eROTik is a desolate and strange look into the world of the male necrophile. Viewer&...

A film I love to hate, and hate to love, Deadgirl (2008) remains one of the most disgusting pieces of cinema I have ever experienced. And that’s saying a lot! Bringing to the screen violent misogyny through zombie rape, assault, and brutality, Deadgirl is tremendously offensive and controversial - but also one that gets people talking. It’s a 00s nasty, I am here to finally discuss it, once and for all. My guest for this episode is Kelly McNeely! Kells is a co-host and enthusiastic mixologist fo...

As far as necrophilia films go, none are more recognizable than German filmmaker, Jorg Buttgereit's, Nekromantik. Epitomizing underground transgressive cinema, Nekromantik shows us the sensual side of the paraphilia, giving us a film with a legacy of sexual depravity and iconic imagery. A cerebral exploitation film that forces us to witness sex, death and body fluids, and how they cum together so perfectly. Can we fuck the fear of death away?

It’s time to crack open a cold one as the first official season of Kelly’s Taboo Terrors is in full swing! In this episode, I am revisiting the often reviled necrophilia short film by director Nacho Cerda, Aftermath (1994). A powerful film without dialogue, Aftermath says wonders about the desecration of the body after death and how violent brutalizing corpses can be. Is this post-mortem rape or just another way to seek revenge? We discuss this and more on the inaugural episode of your new favor...
