Surprise FoGgers! Welcome to the first B-Side of 2024. The recent, heavily-acclaimed continuation of the classic 90s cartoon, X-MEN '97, has not only reinvigorated interest in Marvel's misbegotten mutants, but also prompted Nathan Rouse, Ian Olson, and Matt Murray to traverse an epic conversation about all things brand X.

We wrap up our mini-series #Franklymydear by going further back to another direct adaptation of the novel (albeit one that makes a TON of changes to the text). THE CURSE OF FRANKENSTEIN from 1957 was Hammer Studios attempt to see if they could get in the game of horror cinema. It was a smash success, fueling 6 sequels and launching nearly 2 decades of prolific output of horror films from the studio.

2024/05/10

We have a real treat for you today. We had the opportunity to sit down with writer/director Francis Galluppi about his feature film debut: THE LAST STOP IN YUMA COUNTY. The film is a gritty, textured, character-rich mystery thriller and we really think you'll love it. While awaiting the next fuel truck at a middle-of-nowhere Arizona rest stop, a traveling young knife salesman is thrust into a high-stakes hostage situation by the arrival of two similarly stranded bank robbers with no qualms about

We continue our series called #Franklymydear on films inspired by Mary Shelley's classic novel Frankenstein with our penultimate installment. This week we're examining an independent production filmed right in one of our guest's backyard. THE ANGRY BLACK GIRL AND HER MONSTER delivers a smart and disarmingly thoughtful approach to the Frankenstein scenario, repositioning the narrative in the modern, rural south and tackling some pretty heavy themes. It follows Vicaria, a brilliant young student who

We continue our mini-series looking at quite recent films which are taking their inspiration from Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. This week on #Franklymydear, we look at a truly stunning film from last year called BIRTH/REBIRTH. The film stars Judy Reyes and Marin Ireland as two women who become connected after one of them suffers a dreadful loss. What follows is a complex, deeply compelling portrait of two women suddenly thrust into confrontation with the cultural and social stigmas of our era as well

We continue our mini-series #Franklymydear which examines horror films inspired by Mary Shelley's Frankenstein with a very recent film from this year. LISA FRANKENSTEIN is the feature debut of Zelda Williams and was written by Diablo Cody. It features a very 80s aesthetic and a darkly comic story of death, resurrection, murder, and how difficult it is to be a teenager. We debate the film's effectiveness and unpack some of our own personal difficulties with finding out how we fit in with a world that

Having concluded our series on some of the best horror films of 2023, we are launching a new series focusing on a classic from modern literature that seems to be having a creative moment. A handful of films were released within the past year that took their inspiration directly from Mary Shelley's classic novel Frankenstein. So we're kicking off a mini-series of a few of those this week by taking a look at an adaptation of the original story.Kenneth Branagh's lavish -- and somewhat indulgent --

As an epilogue to our look back series on some of the most noteworthy horror films of 2023, we ventured into the largely dialogue-free, alien-infested world of the Hulu thriller NO ONE WILL SAVE YOU. Joined by Quarterly King Ian Olson, this is one of our more heavily debated films, as opinions widely vary between the three of us on what this film is trying to say and whether or not it succeeds at what it's aiming for. What emerges is an investigation of the desire to be redeemed, and how the hand

As we continue our look back at some of the best horror films of 2023, we encounter a truly unique and original epic as only acclaimed director Ari Aster could conceive it. BEAU IS AFRAID chronicles the bizarre and varied adventures of Beau (Joaquin Phoenix) as he struggles to find his way back home following the news that his mother has died. The film makes some bold choices in its exploration of guilt, fear, identity, despair, and so, so much more. We're joined by Continuity Guru Steven Beckley to

We continue our look back at the horror films of 2023 with one of the most inventive and creative films of last year, as equally likely to bore you to tears as it is to terrify you to your core. SKINAMARINK is an experimental horror film (one of a handful we've seen released in the past couple of years) that strips away most of our comfortable and familiar narrative conventions to immerse us in something more visceral and unnerving. To help us unpack this wildly unique experiment, we've invited
