No Rules November! Who Can Kill a Child? (1976)
Wednesday Nov 03, 2021
Wednesday Nov 03, 2021
This month we're breaking our "fewer than 1000 views on Letterboxd" rule to bring you a couple of our favorites. Erica's pick is a Spanish horror movie about killer kids from a director who seems to really like kids and has an odd way of showing it. We'll discuss the impact of the archival footage at the beginning of the film, effective daylight horror, and, of course, child death.

Wednesday Oct 20, 2021
This week we're doing something a little different as we are joined by writer Joe Augustyn, screenwriter of Night Angel and creator of the Night of the Demons franchise. We'll also discuss his latest book, Ghostwriter, and his related experiences of the paranormal.

Wednesday Oct 06, 2021
We're conjuring up a demon this week and using our best satanic karate skills to fight off the bewilderment of 1977's The Demon Lover. And in a rare instance, we've only got one double feature pick to go with this movie, because it's the only correct answer.

Wednesday Aug 11, 2021
Wednesday Aug 11, 2021
It's time for Shawgust where we celebrate horror movies from Shaw Brothers Studios all month long! We're kicking it off here with Black Magic 2, a sequel in name only to Black Magic (1975), and we're joined by special guest Ian Jane from Rock! Shock! Pop! to discuss all the wackiness. Spells and counter-spells, voodoo dolls, pubic hair, breast milk, maggots, zombies, all with a dash of Hammer horror and James Bond.
Episode correction: Calamity of Snakes, not Killer Snakes, is being released by Unearthed Films.
Check out Ian's website: www.rockshockpop.com and follow him on Twitter @rockshockpop or Instagram @ianjane75. Ian's commentary is on the Blu-ray release from 88 Films (REGION B LOCKED).
