Crystal Lake Catharsis: F13 Pt. VII - The New Blood

Dying for Midnight ·

2024/12/13

🏕️Thanks for tuning in to our 3rd F13 Special!💥 To close out Season 2 we ask questions like "Is part 7 the best of the rest?", "How iconic is the sleeping bag kill?" & "Who wins in a 3-way battle between Carrie, Tina and Charlie from Firestarter?" We think the story, cast and kills make for a very good late-franchise sequel, even with all those damn MPAA cuts! See you back in Feb 25' for season 3!

The Bloody Baron: Hammer's Brides of Dracula

Dying for Midnight ·

2024/12/06

Welcome back for our penultimate episode of Season 2! This week we return to the British-horror masterworks of Terence Fisher. Blending Hammer's gothic vamp trademarks w/some bold character decisions, 1960's Brides leaves its (bite) mark & inspires additional 60s & 70s vampire flicks that feature a collection of bloody baddies in place of a primary antagonist.

Bonus Ep 83.5 - November Dread: Prisoners

Dying for Midnight ·

2024/11/29

This 2013 horror-adjacent thriller is a deeply unsettling & haunting experience. This Thanksgiving-set film turns a cozy holiday into an abduction nightmare. Eerie true detective work combines w/prowler & home invasion elements, taking the story and characters down to the darkest of depths. Prisoners matches films like Seven in dread, Zodiac in manhunting, Sinister in creepiness and Fallen for suspense. We think Prisoners is a perfect blend of tension, horror, and psychological depth.

All Warren/Lutz untruths & truths aside, this movie weaves excellent performances, storytelling, setting, and music into a chilling & chilly Satanic-November tale that makes even the strongest characters of the cloth keel over. Join us and listen in to our love of Brolin, Kidder, Steiger, Harry the dog, in-tune women, 70s opening titles, uncomfortable axe throwing
