It’s the dramatic return of our Scream Queen, Sr. Editor of Fangoria Magazine, Meredith Borders. Meredith is hot off the massive Kickstarter launch of her brand new book, First in Fright: The FANGORIA Compendium! We talk about John Carpenter’s forgotten masterpiece, Jeff Bridges and Karen Allen’s 1980s classic Starman. We also cover Greenland, the (gestures around) whole situation going on, #dunesday, Christopher Nolan v Denis Villeneuve, and our love for the first episode of Knight of the Seven Kingdoms!

We kicked Jason to the curb to allow us to record when Escape Hatch film correspondent and co-host of the Cinenauts podcast ctcher was available. And he’s joined by the Mayor of the Freak Beat and co-host of The Austin Danger Podcast, Kev. By their command, we cover Charlie Kaufman and Spike Jonez’ sophomore effort, the wildly inventive Adaptation.

We’re back, baby! And joining us to kick off the new year in style it’s the 3rd living host of Escape Hatch, the co-host of the Twin Vipers podcast, Jonesy Love Beer. Not gonna lie, this was a tough one as we tackled Christopher Walken’s unhinged performance in Gregory ‘Highlander” Widen’s less successful effort, The Prophecy. (It does have a young, sexy Viggo Mortenson playing the devil, so it has that going for it.)
