The Blood on Satan's Claw (1971)

<p>Today's travel tip: if you're visiting a sleepy English village and someone uncovers a strange, hairy skull, book the next carriage out of town.<br /> <br /> THE BLOOD ON SATAN'S CLAW<br /> Release Date: January 17th, 1971<br /> BUDGET: £82,000<br /> <br /> When a farmer digs up the strange remains of a mysterious creature in a quiet 1700s English village, it awakens an ancient evil that slowly infects the community. Before long, the village's young people fall under the spell of the manipulative Angel Blake, played by <strong>Linda Hayden</strong>, while the local Judge, <strong>Patrick Wymark</strong>, races to stop the growing wave of terror. <strong>Barry Andrews</strong>, <strong>Michele Dotrice</strong>, and <strong>James Hayter</strong> round out the cast in this eerie tale of paranoia, witchcraft, and satanic influence.</p> <p class="isSelectedEnd">Directed by <strong>Piers Haggard</strong>, written by <strong>Robert Wynne-Simmons</strong>, produced by <strong>Malcolm B. Heyworth</strong> and <strong>Peter L. Andrews</strong>, and featuring an unsettling score by <strong>Marc Wilkinson</strong>, Blood on Satan's Claw has become one of the defining folk horror films, often mentioned alongside The Wicker Man and Witchfinder General.</p> <p>The movie was filmed across the English countryside, and many of the cult scenes were shot at the ruins of St. James's Church. Fun fact: the script originally started as three separate horror stories before <strong>Piers Haggard</strong> and <strong>Robert Wynne-Simmons</strong> combined them into one longer story.</p> <p>We hope you enjoy the show.

The Orphanage or El Orfanato (2007)

<p>This week we're checking into The Orphanage—proof that if a creepy old mansion is available for purchase, there's probably a very good reason. Also, that might be your cue to request a discount!<br /> <br /> THE ORPHANAGE<br /> Release Date: May 20th, 2007<br /> BUDGET: $4 million<br /> <br /></p> <p data-start="0" data-end="657">The Orphanage (El Orfanato, 2007) is a Spanish gothic horror film directed by <strong data-start="82" data-end="98" data-is-only-node="">J. A. Bayona</strong>, written by <strong data-start="111" data-end= "132">Sergio G. Sánchez</strong>, and produced by <strong data-start="150" data-end="167">Mar Targarona</strong>, <strong data-start="169" data-end="186">Joaquín Padró</strong>, and <strong data-start="192" data-end="211">Álvaro Augustin</strong>, with <strong data-start="218" data-end="240">Guillermo del Toro</strong> serving as executive producer. The film stars <strong data-start="287" data-end="302">Belén Rueda</strong> as Laura, who returns with her husband Carlos (<strong data-start= "350" data-end="367">Fernando Cayo</strong>) and adopted son Simón (<strong data-start="392" data-end="409">Roger Príncep</strong>) to the orphanage where she grew up. Hoping to reopen the property as a home for disabled children, Laura instead finds herself drawn into a series of strange and unsettling events. The film's haunting score was composed by <strong data-start="634" data-end= "656">Fernando Velázquez</strong>.</p> <p data-start="659" data-end="1034">When Simón suddenly disappears, Laura becomes obsessed with uncovering the truth behind his disappearance. Her search leads her to dark secrets hidden within the orphanage and to the spirits of children connected to its tragic past. As reality and the supernatural begin to blur, Laura must confront heartbreaking revelations that test her love and determination as a mother.</p> <p data-start="1036" data-end="1651" data-is-last-node="" data-is-only-node="">Filming took place primarily in Asturias, Spain, including the historic Partarríu Manor in Llanes, which served as the orphanage exterior. Much of the interior was later recreated on soundstages in Barcelona to give <strong data-start= "1252" data-end="1268">J. A. Bayona</strong> greater creative control. An interesting production fact is that <strong data-start= "1334" data-end="1356">Guillermo del Toro</strong> helped secure additional funding for the project after being impressed by the screenplay, allowing the film's budget and production scope to expand significantly. The film premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in 2007 and became one of the most acclaimed Spanish horror films of its generation.</p> <p><br /> We hope you enjoy the show.

The Omen (1976)

<p>What would you do if your child turned out to be the devil? I know some parents may secretly think that about their children during the more troubling moments, but The Omen's Damien takes the cake for sure. A face only a mother could love?<br /> <br /> THE OMEN<br /> Release Date: June 25th, 1976<br /> BUDGET: $2.8 million<br /> <br /> The Omen is a chilling supernatural horror classic directed by <strong data-start="83" data-end="101">Richard Donner</strong>, produced by <strong data-start="115" data-end="134">Harvey Bernhard</strong>, written by <strong data-start="147" data-end="164">David Seltzer</strong>, and featuring an unforgettable score by <strong data-start="206" data-end="225">Jerry Goldsmith</strong>. The film stars <strong data-start="242" data-end="258">Gregory Peck</strong>, <strong data-start="260" data-end="274">Lee Remick</strong>, <strong data-start="276" data-end="292">David Warner</strong>, <strong data-start="294" data-end="313">Billie Whitelaw</strong>, <strong data-start="315" data-end="342">Harvey Spencer Stephens</strong>, and <strong data-start="348" data-end= "369">Patrick Troughton</strong>.<br /> <br /> The story follows American diplomat Robert Thorn (<strong data-start="421" data-end="437">Gregory Peck</strong>), whose newborn son dies shortly after birth. Desperate to spare his wife Katherine (<strong data-start="523" data-end="537">Lee Remick</strong>) the grief, he secretly agrees to adopt an orphaned infant. Unbeknownst to either parent, the child they bring home is Damien, a boy whose arrival may signal the fulfillment of a terrifying biblical prophecy.<br /> <br /> What sets The Omen apart from many horror films of its era is its atmosphere of mounting dread and its focus on psychological terror rather than gore. <strong data-start="1476" data-end="1497">Jerry Goldsmith's</strong> Academy Award-winning score, particularly the ominous choral piece "Ave Satani," amplifies the film's unsettling mood. Filmed in England and on location in several European settings, the production became famous for a number of strange occurences on set, which helped contribute to the movie's reputation as one of the best supernatural thrillers ever made. Decades later, The Omen remains a landmark of horror cinema and one of the defining films of the 1970s.<br /> <br /> We hope you enjoy the show.
