30 ABR. 2023 · Tonight we have in the studio a past master of Irish horror. Bursting onto the scene in 2004 with Screen Ireland's first funded horror DEAD MEAT in 2004, what followed next was a cornucopia of gore and guts channelled through his own unique brand of horror comedy. From the TV show ZOMBIE BASHERS in 2010, notable entries include STITCHES in 2012, FROM THE DARK in 2014, and the 2015 short STRANGERS IN THE NIGHT – which features one of the best love scenes in horror history between a banshee and a bogger, right up to the hilarious vampire horror comedy, LET THE WRONG ONE, we are delighted to welcome director Conor McMahon
Films discussed include
LET THE WRONG ONE (Dir. Conor McMahon, 2022)
BAD TASTE (Dir. Peter Jackson, 1987)
EVIL DEAD 2: DEAD BY DAWN (Dir. Sam Raimi, 1987)

14 AGO. 2022 · In this episode, it's clear that when a family slays together, they most certainly stay together. With one of the most unique and dynamic approaches to filmmaking, please welcome the Adams Family of Wonderwheel Productions.
Joining us on the show, Toby, John and their daughter Zelda discuss their combined love of horror and what led to them picking up the camera and making movies.
With their most recent feature HELLBENDER currently streaming on Shudder, folk horror is high on the agenda along with what it's like to grow up on a horror film set, making films during the lockdown and balancing "in your face" gore with the more subtle terror of grief and loss.
Films discussed include-
HELLBENDER (dir. Zelda Adams, Toby Poser, John Adams, 2021 )
THE VVITCH (dir.Robert Eggers, 2015 )
THE WRESTLER (dir.Darren Aronofsky, 2008 )

9 MAY. 2022 · All about the shaky footage, lost tapes and off-screen squeals as we chat to Sarah Appleton and Phillip Escott, makers of The Found Footage Phenomenon.
In this special episode, we talk about the origins of found footage from Gothic literature all the way up to Dashcam footage exploring the manner in which found footage subverts the typically "safe space" of horror fiction as it blurs the lines between real and fake. We delve into what exactly constitutes found footage and why it gets such a hard time. Rounding off our chat we look to the future of found footage and what it means for the horror genre going forward.
Landing on SHUDDER on the 19th of May

7 ABR. 2022 · Tonight it's all about final girls and chainsaws!! For this episode, we are joined by actress, writer and director Olwen Fouéré; a truly magnificent even ethereal presence of a woman who has dedicated her life to the pursuit of art in its many guises. With a host of accolades after her name including Irish Times Special Tribute Award for her outstanding achievement and contribution to Irish Theatre her range knows bounds having performed in blockbuster fantasy like Fantastic Beasts:The Crimes of Grindelwald to her acclaimed role as the voice of the River in Finnifans wake. And on top of all of this - she has also found a way to capture the essence of one of the most iconic characters in horror history – the final girl Sally Hardesty.

31 ENE. 2022 · Tonight we are joined by screenwriter Stephen Shield's. From his widely successful web series ZOMBIE BASHERS in 2010 to co-writing one of Ireland's most talked-about horror films A HOLE IN THE GROUND in 2019, Stephen has secured his position in Irish horror as one of the most sought after screenwriters.
Tonight we discuss the intersections between horror and comedy, our mutual love of zombies, changing pace and writing on trauma and grief in his first feature with director LEE CRONIN.
For his picks, Stephen has chosen;
JAWS (1975) and SCREAM (1996)

30 NOV. 2021 · We are in the presence of true royalty as we talk to a woman who has dedicated herself to ensuring the legacy of, in my humble opinion one of the greatest horror directors of all time, a man who not only gave us movies but singlehandedly gifted us with an entirely new subgenre ensuring that each new generation to come would always have a zombie to call their own.
Boils and ghouls, it's my very great honour to welcome Suzanne Desrocher-Romero producer and the founder and president of the George A. Romero Foundation and wife of our beloved George Romero.
