Mostly Horror

This week, we’re joined by filmmaker, actor, and comedian, Curry Barker. Alongside his friend and collaborator Cooper Tomlinson, Curry is one of the minds behind the sketch comedy duo That’s a Bad Idea. He’s also the creator of a viral horror film, Milk & Serial, and now, his feature film Obsession is hitting theaters.

In this episode, we delve into Curry’s experience watching The Ring too young, what YouTube comment sections have taught him about trusting your audience, and how he approached making possession movies feel fresh again.

He also tells us about his swaggy style evolution and his upcoming work on a reimagining of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. We had an absolute blast talking with him, and you’ll have just as much fun listening in, so …

COME HANG OUT!!!

In this episode, we reunited with writer and director, Damian McCarthy, whose chilling new feature Hokum is now out in theaters. (It’s so terrifying that it reportedly made an audience member pee their pants during an early screening!) Starring Severance and  Parks and Rec actor Adam Scott, the film is already off to a strong box office start.

We chatted with Damian about his experience collaborating with Adam and what he brought to the role of Ohm, the influence of Damian's Irish Catholic background on his writing, and the grueling experience of filming in a burning hot desert.

Plus, Damian teases his next horror film, which we already can’t wait to learn more about.

As always, it was nothing but a fantastic conversation with Damian, so …

This week, we did something new. It's just us, no guests. We're calling this segment "Pscyhoanalyze Me," and the whole idea is simple: you can learn a lot about someone by their movie picks. 

So, in this episode, we put that to the test. We're talking first-date horror picks, villains we'd (maybe?) defend, hot monsters, and what film we'd want playing on our deathbed. Along the way, we're throwing out questions that are personality-revealing and really get you thinking. 

If you're down for some wild questions (and maybe trying to answer them yourself), this episode is fun, introspective, and just a little unhinged. So ...

COME HANG OUT!!!

Hey Horror Fans!

The Book of the Dead is having a moment.

With Evil Dead: Burn dropping this July, Evil Dead: Wrath officially locked in for 2028, and Lee Cronin’s The Mummy keeping the Rise director in the conversation…it felt like the right time to go back to one of our earliest episodes!!

Back in March of 2021 we sat down with George Reinblatt, the creator of Evil Dead the Musical, to talk about what it takes to take one of horror’s most beloved franchises and turn it into a full blown stage production (complete with a Splatter Zone).

We get into the origins of the show, its Off-Broadway run, why local productions keep popping up every Halloween around the world, and the long, weird, wonderful history of horror and comedy sharing a stage.

Plus as always we open with some quick thoughts on the Evil Dead franchise’s current moment, some horror news, and close things out with our latest Mostly Horror Recommendations of the Week!

Grab your poncho… it’s gonna get groovy..

Come Hang Out!!!

This week we're talking to Adam Dougherty; the practical effects artist and founder of KreatureKid Studios!!! We chat about monsters, movie magic, and an industry that seems to keep choosing the product and quantity over heart, art and quality ... lt's a conversation about craft, independence, and what happens when the thing you've dedicated your life to gets treated like an outdated over expense.

If you're feeling a little empty about the state of the world, country and industry then this one is for you so...

COME HANG OUT!!!
