9 - La Horde

The Devil"s Work Podcast ·

2022/09/27

It's time to play cops and robbers and zombies on The Devil's Work! This week, Skeptik leads the conversation as we discuss 2009's French action-packed horror La Horde, directed by Yannick Dahan & Benjamin Rocher! Appearing to be a gritty gangster thriller on the surface, this film takes a wild turn as the characters are thrust into the middle of an undead apocalypse amidst their nefarious revenge plot. It's worth watching for the climactic parking lot scene alone! According to one of the

8 - Memories of Murder

The Devil"s Work Podcast ·

2022/09/13

Evelyn's got us putting our thinking caps on this week with Bong Joon-ho's 2003 true crime masterpiece Memories of Murder. The film was inspired by South Korea's very first confirmed serial murders, which makes the last shot before the credits roll even more powerful when put into historical context. With the use of gorgeous cinematography, it is largely centered around the incompetency of the police force who was responsible for investigating the crimes, resulting in an emotionally well-balanced

7 - Saint Maud

2022/08/30

It's time for PsydeShow to grab the wheel once again, and this week, we're going to church to worship at the feet of Saint Maud! Directed in 2019 by Rose Glass, this unique take on a possession/body horror follows Maud as she struggles to find meaning to her existence through a good ol fashioned helping of self-abuse in service of the big man upstairs. Exploring themes of religious fanaticism and isolation, this film shows the slow descent of a mind left alone with too much time to think and plenty

6 - Audition

The Devil"s Work Podcast ·

2022/08/16

It’s Skeptik’s turn to steer the ship this week! Join us as we discuss the 1999 cult classic Audition, directed by Takashi Miike! Firmly in the “good for her” category of horror, this film has had a profound influence on many accomplished directors in (and adjacent to) the genre. What begins as a seemingly innocuous attempt at finding love (read as “committing fraud”), takes a sinister turn as events unfold and the viewer is led down the dark, twisted rabbit hole that is the mind of Asami Yamazaki

TW for this film include: gore, general violence, surgery, use of needles/injections Join the discussion on Facebook (The Devil's Work Podcast) and Instagram @thedevilsworkpod We’re on Letterboxed! https://letterboxd.com/evelyn_mars/list/the-devils-work-podcast/ Email us your own reviews about the films or your thoughts on episodes at: thedevilsworkpodcast@gmail.com

5 - Titane (Part 1)

The Devil"s Work Podcast ·

2022/08/02

It's Evelyn's pick this week and it's a doozy! We're covering the 2021 French fever dream Titane, directed by Julia Ducournau. If you have yet to watch it, do yourself a favor and go in as blind as possible. It is a violent and heartwarming cinematic masterpiece that will leave you speechless by the time the credits roll. There is far too much to say about it (hence the two-parter), so we're keeping this description short and sweet! Watch it right now on Hulu (US) and come along for the ride! TW for

4 - Man Bites Dog

The Devil"s Work Podcast ·

2022/07/19

This week, PsydeShow brings Man Bites Dog to the table! An extremely violent and thought-provoking 1992 Belgian black comedy/crime thriller, which also happens to be a staple in the mockumentary and found footage genres. It stars Remy Belvaux, Benoit Poelvoorde, and Andre Bonzel; who all had a hand in writing, producing, and directing the film. This is a truly disturbing, yet brilliant one in a number of ways. Might wanna have a pallet cleanser on standby (perhaps Spongebob), because this is how you

1 - High Tension

The Devil"s Work Podcast ·

2022/07/05

Welcome to The Devil's Work Podcast, where we watch some f***ed up horror movies so that you don't have to! On our inaugural episode, we’ve got PsydeShow’s pick. We cover the 2003 French psychological slasher High Tension (Haute Tension) directed by Alexandre Aja! This bloody and brutal thriller helped to usher in a wave of "New French Extremity" filmmaking during the early 2000s. Does it hold up? We sure think so! TW for this film include: gore, violence against women/children, SA. Join the

2022/07/05

Skeptik's steering the ship into some murky waters this episode! We're talking Japanese director Sion Sono's 2001 harrowing psychological mystery thriller Suicide Club (Suicide Circle). There are so many layers to this one, not unlike the ski-nnamon roll that's prominently displayed in disgusting fashion! You'll have to listen to find out what we mean.

The Devil"s Work Podcast ·

2022/07/05

It's Evelyn's turn at the wheel this week! We're getting nice and weird this episode when we cover 2016's highly erotic and unsettling sci-fi Mexican psychological horror film, The Untamed directed by Amat Escalante! This one is guaranteed to make you feel something, whether that be disturbed or entranced. TW for this film include: suicidal ideation, violence against women, homophobia, tentacles.
