    This week on the show, Desmond and Tom cover a double feature of films based on Native American evil spirits that have very little to do with actual Native Americans. We're going to go from best to worst, so first, a look at the weird body horror / cosmic horror freakout The Manitou. Then, a skinwalker is like an evil Navajo witch, right? So why is this dumb movie full of bikers and wolfmen? That's the question they ask in their review of Skinwalkers. Songs included: "The Fear That Binds You" by Crowbar, "Becoming" by Pantera, "Skinwalker" by Navajo Witch, and "Man Bites Dogged" by Napalm Death. Send feedback to: [email protected].

Then, Desmond goes solo on a review of the first film ever shot in the Haida language, the haunting folktale of The Edge of the Knife.

    Folk Horror February continues with a Dread Media first! Despite being one of the longest-running contributors to the show, Desmond and Rich the Monster Movie Kid have never reviewed a a film together. Until now!

Also, songs: "Lovely Butterfly" by Melvins, "The Butterfly" by Cruachan, "Book of Bad Decisions" by Clutch, "Sin" by Nine Inch Nails, and "Crying Wolf" by Tony Martin.
