CHASING THE FEAR: Horror Movies & My Quest To Be Scared!
<p>Content Note: This episode contains discussion of horror films both classic and modern, and may include mild spoilers.</p><p>Ever since the BBC’s Ghostwatch (1992) terrified me as a child, I’ve been chasing that same raw, disorienting fear — the kind that makes your skin crawl and your imagination spiral. In this episode, I explore my lifelong quest to be scared again, and what that journey has revealed about the way horror works — and sometimes fails.</p><p>From the flickering shadows of early silent cinema to the paranoia of Rosemary’s Baby (Roman Polanski, 1968) and the grief-fuelled terror of The Babadook (Jennifer Kent, 2014), I look at how horror uses light, sound, and silence to build unease. Along the way, we revisit the spiritual and societal fears of The Exorcist (William Friedkin, 1973) and The Omen (Richard Donner, 1976), the sunlit menace of The Wicker Man (Robin Hardy, 1973) and Midsommar (Ari Aster, 2019), and the isolation of The VVitch (Robert Eggers, 2015).</p><p>I also reflect on modern reinventions — from It Follows (David Robert Mitchell, 2014) and Talk to Me (Danny & Michael Philippou, 2022) to The Black Phone (Scott Derrickson, 2021), Don’t Breathe (Fede Álvarez, 2016), and Weapons (Zach Cregger, 2025). Alongside them, I consider the more conventional studio horrors like The Conjuring (James Wan, 2013), Insidious (2010), The Village (M. Night Shyamalan, 2004), and Smile (2022) — films that divide audiences and highlight how tricky it is to balance tension, art, and authenticity.</p><p>This isn’t a simple list of favourites or failures. It’s a conversation about what truly unsettles us — how horror reflects our anxieties, our grief, our need for control, and why, even after decades of searching, I still haven’t quite found that perfect scare. But maybe that’s what keeps horror — and me — alive.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Will THE NAKED GUN 2025 reboot have me eating my words?
<p>This special mini-episode sees me step outside the usual schedule to tackle The Naked Gun (2025), a reboot nobody asked for… and yet somehow everyone’s raving about. After being thoroughly underwhelmed by the trailer, I’d already prepared my sarcastic one-liners and resigned myself to disappointment — but as the hype machine cranked up and glowing reviews started rolling in, I began to worry I might be about to eat my own words.</p><p>Join me as I break down whether the new Naked Gun lands any real punches (or pies), if it truly captures the spirit of the Zucker-Abrams original, and whether it deserves all the buzz — or if this reboot belongs in a museum next to O.J.’s gloves and Ricardo Montalbán’s neck brace.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
