For the month of October, we're celebrating Halloween the only way we know how: by watching a whole bunch of horror movies! Specifically, this October, we're taking a look at a small piece of horror film history by diving into the post-SCREAM teen horror revival of the late 90s and early 00s!

This week, we’re focusing on a lesser known film of the era, although one that’s starting to gain a bit of a cult following, largely thanks to a recent blu-ray release from Scream Factory. CHERRY FALLS was a film directed by an up-and-coming indie director from Australia who was poised to be the next big thing. But cold feet from the studio, spawned by a series of battles with the MPAA, lead to the film being dumped on the USA Network in a highly edited form.

On this episode, we’ll discuss the film’s creation, as well as all of the issues surrounding its release, plus a discussion of what might have been.

We’re joined once again by guests Craig Carson and Myles Griffin, both of whom were passionate enough about this film to get it a nomination for the Psychotronic Canon!

Wait, the Psychotronic Canon, you say? Not the Hall of Fame? That’s right, this week marks what could be considered a bit of a reboot of this podcast, or at least a slight restructuring. It’ll all be explained in this week’s ONE SHOT episode, so be sure to check that one out so you’ll know the state of the podcast going forward!
