Mostly Horror

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about craft, independence, and what happens when the thing you've dedicated your life to gets treated like an outdated over expense.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!!!

This week we did something a little different. For the first time ever we have a guest where we needed a translator and honestly... it was a blast! 

We are thrilled to be joined by Japanese story teller Genki Kawamura who is the producer behind Your Name and Suzume, NYT bestselling novelist of If Cats Disappeared From the World , and director of A Hundred Flowers and his latest film Exit 8, the new adaptation of the viral indie horror game!  

We talk about why liminal horror is having such a massive cultural moment, what it reflects about the world we're living in, and the art of adapting a game with almost no story into something that genuinely gets under your skin and heart. We also get some Japanese horror and film recommendations you're going to want to write down! 

Exit 8 is in theaters now via Neon. Go see it.

AND COME HANG OUT!!!

Hey Horror Fans!!!

This week we sat down with comedian, creator and overall personality Katie Hettenback (Aka Katie Afraidy) from the Fangoria podcast Katie Afraidy and got into all sorts of nonsense. 

Stand up horror tastes, the movies that shape you and the ones that expose you. Turns out talking about horror can reveal a little more than you mean it to.. 

A few hot takes, maybe some questionable calls. Nothing we can take back now!! 

Also: Ed Gein bobbleheads, what actually counts as a zombie movie, and childhood goth phases. If you’re a fan of both things funny and scary, this is a gem, sooo …

COME HANG OUT!!!

This week Eric LaRocca is back on Mostly Horror for round three and we’re diving into his newest book Wretch: The Unbecoming of Porcelain Khaw.

This conversation goes to some interesting places. We get into grief, belief, and the ways people cope with loss, especially when that coping starts to drift into something a little more complicated. We talk about seeing meaning where there might not be any, the pull of certain ideas even when you know better, and how easy it is to blur that line.

We don’t really hold back on how we feel about any of it.

We also talk chatrooms, digital spaces, and what it means to shift into something more internal and psychological. Plus a bit on what’s coming next sooo...

COME HANG OUT!!!

This week we’re joined by Alec Duckart, the musician behind Searows, to talk about his new album Death in the Business of Whaling and all the stuff that feeds into his work.

We get into horror movies, growing up on things like The X-Files, and the films that have stuck with him over time, along with how that kind of atmosphere and storytelling shows up in his music. It’s a loose, honest conversation about influence, emotion, and making art that feels authentic and lived in sooo…

Come Hang Out!!!
