Mind Over Splatter

About Mind Over Splatter

Dylan Ferguson, Sheldon Kilcullen, William O'Donnell and guests discuss, dissect, and debate horror movies. Each episode digs into a different subgenre, series, or style of flicks. We reappraise underseen or underrated gems, and (over-)analyze films from unusual angles. Sometimes we get into fights. Various expert guests will appear to provide context and vaunt their particular obsessions.

   What Dreams May Come, Part 4: New Nightmare, Freddy vs. Jason, and the remake

   The final chapter. We begin by digging into Wes Craven's complex, thoughtful meta-sequel New Nightmare (1994), discussing how it reassesses the themes of the first film. Then, it's time to argue over the contentious Freddy vs. Jason (2003) - is it an Iraq War allegory? - before wrapping things up with the 2010 remake. And yes, we can finally unveil our full-franchise rankings.
