  • Unknown Broadcast | Four Horror Stories of Paranoia, Blind Voyages, and a Cursed Tree
    Sep 28 2025
    Come closer, my dear. Tonight the glass trembles, the sea goes sightless, and a tree learns your name. We’ll drink, we’ll listen, and we’ll see what answers when we call out in the dark.
    • 🍷 A Drink with Dionysius — A small-time schemer toasts his luck and finds a warhead at the bottom of the bottle. Greed, old flames, and the kind of deal that stains the soul.
    • 😱 Terror Stricken (The Whistler) — Fear begins as a whisper and ends as gangrene. Paranoia swells until every heartbeat sounds like a verdict.
    • 🚢 Voyage Through Darkness (Suspense) — A ship at night, a passenger who cannot see, and a killer moving like weather across the deck. The ocean keeps its secrets—until it doesn’t.
    • 🌲 The Demon Tree (Dark Fantasy) — In the wrong forest, the bark has memory. Bloodlines are tallied in rings, and the wood speaks back when you breathe its name.

    Finish your drink, keep your hands inside the light, and do not—under any circumstance—turn your back on the tree.

  • Cutting Deep into Horror | The Evil Dead (1981) Sam Raimi’s Scariest Film Deep Dive
    Sep 26 2025
    Henrique Couto & Rachael Redolfi cut deep into Sam Raimi’s The Evil Dead (1981)—the raw, relentless, cabin-in-the-woods classic that jump-started a whole splatter language. We unpack how Raimi’s scrappy camera attacks, Tom Sullivan’s gnarly makeup/stop-motion, and Bruce Campbell’s live-wire performance forged a cult juggernaut on a shoestring. We also trace the Michigan-to-Tennessee origin story (yes, that Morristown cabin), why the movie’s fever-dream logic still rattles modern audiences, and how the film’s ratings saga (X → NC-17; many releases unrated) fed its outlaw reputation.
    Inside this episode
    • Pure nightmare mode: Why the 1981 original plays it straight—and meaner—than its sequels, leaning into fever-dream momentum instead of jokey splatter.
    • DIY brutality: Tom Sullivan’s prosthetics and stop-motion meltdown; Raimi’s aggressive camera grammar that makes the cabin feel alive.
    • From Michigan to Morristown: How a Detroit proof-of-concept led to a Tennessee shoot—and the enduring lore around that cabin site. (We discuss the oft-told lightning-strike story and what locals say.)
    • The ratings fight: Festival buzz, an X rating, later NC-17 notes, and why many home releases stayed unrated—fueling the film’s “forbidden” aura.
