116. Titane (feat. Al Grigg)
When this uncategorisable film premiered at the Sydney Film Festival, 13 people fainted and dozens walked out. Shag and this week's guest Al Grigg were there, and luckily for you, did neither. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Dec 12, 2021•45 min
115. Censor
Horror has the funnest and most inventive premises. Case in point: a debut feature from a Welsh director set in the infamous 'video nasty' era of UK censorship, that is itself a video nasty. Magic. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

114. Driller Killer
The power of this film's poster alone caused hysteria and widespread film banning in the UK during the 1980s. Are you brave enough do discover the Driller Killer? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

112. Train to Busan (feat. Alexei Toliopoulos)
We're taking a trip from Seoul to Busan (with podcast legend Alexei Toliopoulos) to work out which is scarier: shambling Romero zombies, or an athletic undead baseball team. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

111. Don't Breathe
Horror isn't just the 80s classics that everyone has heard of. Horror in the 2020s is an exciting crop of new franchises that have nothing to do with Michael Myers and Freddy Krueger.

109. Halloween (2018)
The 11th film in the franchise, that's actually the sequel to the original 1978 film according to the 7th Michael Myers Timeline. It's also the 3rd film called 'Halloween', following both the first and the Rob Zombie remake in 2007. Imagine explaining this to Thomas Edison. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

106. The Slumber Party Massacre
Don't let the exploitative cover fool you – this is a woke, feminist horror film that was hugely ahead of its time in 1982. But is it scary? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Oct 03, 2021•33 min
105. Psycho Goreman
A loving homage to 80's live-action adventure films that's also over-the-top gory that also has a very internet sense of humour that also had a budget of whatever was in the filmmakers' wallets. Let's see how far we can push the 'so bad it's good' defence, shall we? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Sep 26, 2021•48 min
104. The Boy Behind the Door
