Also, IMDB tags can help you find movies with similar themes. Like public nudity. Before we get there, we talk about some of the great works of horror fiction we are currently reading and

On this week’s Horror Podclass we are doing a deep dive into the brand new Blue-Ray release of the 2018 movie Overlord. This movie has everything: Nazis, zombies, motorcycles with sidecars, explosions, and jumping out of airplanes. It just doesn't really have much to say about the horrors of war or the nature of evil... but hey, that's OK. It is still a really fun movie. Plus, Tyler gives us a sneak peek at some of the cool features on the Blue-Ray disk.

S02E26- Pontypool and Language

The Horror Pod Class ·

2019/02/11

On this week’s Horror Podclass we are doing a deep dive into the 2008 zombie horror movie Pontypool, language, philosophy, and rhetoric. Pontypool is easily one of our favorite movies, but not everyone liked it. As evidenced by our anonymous Amazon reviewer, not everyone thought it was a zombie movie. Whether you liked it or hated it, the movie does offer up some very interesting critiques on language and at least makes you think.

S02E24: Night Eats the World and Loneliness

The Horror Pod Class ·

2019/01/28

On this week’s Horror Podclass we are jumping back into one of our favorite subgenres: the ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE! Specifically, we are discussing the rather subdued movie, The Night Eats the World. It's French. It lacks machine guns. Not too much gore. But don't let that hold you back, as we have found Night Eats the World is a wonderful character study and a really complex exploration of loneliness.
