Someone Else's Movie

With the East Coast drama Little Lorraine starting its Canadian theatrical run this Friday, April 17th, actor Auden Thornton is here to discuss Sarah Polley’s first feature Away from Her, and unpack the layers of emotion and loss running through it. Your genial host Norm Wilner had to brace himself for this one.

With his goopy, giddy contagion thriller Cold Storage now available on digital and on demand, director Jonny Campbell takes a swing at Mike Hodges’ stylish crime classic Get Carter – you know, the one where Michael Caine rampages through the Newcastle underworld. Your genial host Norm Wilner is bloody delighted to have this as our 600th episode.

Now that his new creeper The Mortuary Assistant is streaming on Shudder, director Jeremiah Kipp ventures into the sinister funeral home of Don Coscarelli’s midnight horror classic Phantasm. Your genial host Norm Wilner isn’t worried about those silver spheres at all.

With her new drama Maya and Samar now in theaters across Canada, director Anita Doron invites us to fall under the spell of Tsai Ming-Liang’s Goodbye, Dragon Inn, about the last screening at a grand old Taipei movie house. Your genial host Norm Wilner takes this one very personally.

It’s our 11th anniversary, and critic and author Alexandra Heller-Nicholas – whose 2020 book 1000 Women in Horror is now a documentary, and streaming on Shudder this Friday – is here to discuss Abel Ferrara and Zoe Tamerlis Lund’s unforgettable Ms. 45, which rewrote the rules of the rape-revenge thriller. Your genial host Norm Wilner has been looking forward to this one for a while.
