Episode: 9 - Film Review Special (Part 2: Saint Maud)
And your back for more....
Join us on our second out of three episode spectacular, where we discuss and review modern horror releases. This episode we turn our godly gaze on to a rather troubled young woman named........Saint Maud.
Critically and commercially a success, so we at Ushers of Horror thought it seemed appropriate to cover it in this episode. This episode also is a first as well.....as we have a special guess appearance from Ed (Ned) Newey, to help us talk and direct the most saintly of all saints.....Saint Maud
Give the arch lord of darkness, Mr Danzig some love for his tune at the end (seems fitting)
