Caliber 9 From Outer Space

• Episode 97: Demons + Demons

  We all have our demons. Some of us more than others. This week we delve into two very different kinds of horror as Samm Deighan drops in to check out Demons (aka Shura) (1971) directed by Toshio Matsumoto, followed by Demons (1985) directed by Lamberto Bava. Samurai on the verge of psychotic breakdown and a West Berlin cinema full of badly dubbed weirdos take turns being overrun with demons both psychological and literal. Whichever way you look at it, this world is a sea of blood. It's not really possible to spoil Demons '85, but we will call out Spoiler Territory for Demons '71. If you want to skip ahead from that point, you can rejoin the conversation at the 1:21:31 mark to avoid spoilers. Want to get in touch?

• Episode 96: Bloodbath + Blood Delirium

  The blood runs free as Justin Kerswell joins Joe, Rob and Bryce for our latest instalment of Creepy Spooky Month! Obnoxious expats, killer hippies (or are they angels?), and Dennis Hopper being a scumbag all feature in obscure genre art-piece, Bloodbath (a.k.a. The Sky is Falling) (1975), directed by Silvio Narizzano. And then we buckle in for a truly demented bit of late-cycle Italian horror, Sergio Bergonzelli's Blood Delirium (1988), in which John Phillip Law kills women so he can use their blood as paint in his horrible artworks, and Gordon Mitchell plays a butler with a penchant for rape, cannibalism and necrophilia - but apart from that, he's a model servant. It's not really possible to spoil Blood Delirium, but we will call out Spoiler Territory for Bloodbath. If you want to skip ahead from that point, you can rejoin the conversation at the 1:07:03 mark to avoid spoilers. Want to get in touch?

• Episode 95: Silent Hill + Sweet Home

  We're doing a crossover episode with Grandad and Mr Tech for this instalment in Creepy Spooky Month! Horror is very much the name of the game(-to-film-adaptation) this week. Together, we dive deep into Silent Hill (2006), directed by Christophe Gans, followed by Sweet Home (1989), directed by Kiyoshi Kurosawa. Be ready for some computer game talk too, as we discuss the relative merits of the games that these films are based on. We will be announcing a Spoiler Territory section for both films, so if you haven't seen them before you listen, you can nevertheless avoid spoilers for Silent Hill by skipping ahead to the 1:57:15 mark, and for Sweet Home by skipping ahead to 2:39:04. Want to get in touch? You can reach us on [email protected] Theme music: "The Cold Light of Day" by HKM.

• Episode 94: Night of the Demon + Night of the Demon

  Creepy Spooky Month continues with a double shot of two very different demons. Sammy stops by to discuss Jacques Tourneur's classic MR James adaptation, Night of the Demon (1957), and also its namesake, the infamous video nasty Night of the Demon (1980), directed by Jim West. A cerebral meditation upon the English Eerie with a big-ass honest-to-God demon paired with a psychotronic gorefest about Bigfoot - the names may be the same, but the films couldn't be more different! But to us, they're both classics. We will be announcing a Spoiler Territory section for both films, so if you haven't seen them before you listen, you can nevertheless avoid spoilers for Night of the Demon '57 by skipping ahead to the 1:38:21 mark, and for Night of the Demon '80 by skipping ahead to 2:35:28.

• Episode 93: Friday the 13th Part 2 + Friday the 13th Part III

  The days are cooling down, the leaves are changing colour, and the nights are drawing in. It must be Creepy Spooky Month! Al joins us for the first of a series of episodes all devoted to horror this October - and what better way to kick it all off than by presenting the second instalment of our deep dive into the beloved Friday the 13th movie franchise? This time, we discuss Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981), and then carry right on into Friday the 13th Part III (1982), both directed by Steve Miner. Jason has entered the building! Let's just say, plot is not really the reason to watch either of these films. so we won't be announcing a Spoiler Territory section for either of them. Want to get in touch? You can reach us on [email protected] Theme music: "The Cold Light of Day" by HKM. Check out HKM on #SoundCloud or Bandcamp "Friday the 13th" by White Reaper
