We discuss how the retro setting enhances the suspense and hear our take on Micah Monroe's brilliant portrayal of a neurodivergent character, alongside Cage's intense performance.
But the chills don't stop there! We also dive deep into Kiernan Shipka's standout monologue and director Osgood Perkins' knack for creating a haunting atmosphere.
Plus, we'll reminisce about the TV series "Lost" and its lasting impact on character-driven storytelling. And for a bit of fun, we share our thoughts on "Sissy" (2022) and our excitement for immersive horror games like the Blair Witch game from Hunt a Killer.

We're thrilled to bring you another spine-chilling and nostalgia-infused episode of Horror Rewind! This week, your ghoulish hosts, Kelly and Meg, are taking you on a captivating journey from heartwarming childhood classics to mind-bending surreal horror.
We delve into the emotional and psychological layers of today's feature film, STOPMOTION's, narrative, exploring themes of identity, artistic expression, and the haunting influence of a toxic mother-daughter relationship.
You'll hear our thoughts on whether the young girl in the film is a ghost, a reflection of the protagonist's childhood, or her creative 'id'. The film's surreal elements keep us questioning reality, much like the fears tied to hypnosis and control.

Hey horror junkies, we hope you're ready for another spine-chilling and thought-provoking episode of Horror Rewind!
This week, we're diving deep into the dark and eerie world of slasher cinema with our latest episode feature: In a Violent Nature.
🎬 Here's what to expect:
Who could forget the electrifying audience reactions during our Atlanta screenings of "The Invisible Man" and "The Visit"? This week, we're channeling that same energy as we recount our virgin viewing of "In a Violent Nature." From the killer's POV narrative to the gorgeously eerie Ontario setting, we couldn't wait to break our silence and dissect every chilling detail.
We then shift our focus to the dynamics of slasher films, particularly how "In a Violent Nature" compares to iconic characters like Leatherface. Discover why the killer's playful moment with a toy car left a lasting impression, blending horror and unexpected tenderness. And let's not forget the intentionally grating camper dialogue that solidified their status as unwelcome guests—proving once again that some films are best enjoyed with a lively crowd.
Our conversation also tackles the complex portrayal of gender in horror. We critique the overused r*pe revenge trope and express our yearning for a more nuanced female slasher character.
Wrapping up, we reflect on the emotional toll of working on dark material, celebrate Tracy Arnold's theater success, and recommend the film "Immaculate" featuring Sidney Sweeney. Plus, you'll love the hilarious ad-libbed line that became a crowd favorite!
