In this episode, Jon, Ryan, and Kearns thread the film through the reel as they dive into Sinister (2012)—that grainy, grief-soaked descent into found footage and demonic legacy.

They dissect how Scott Derrickson weaponized Super 8 film, where Ethan Hawke ranks on the “horror dad breakdown” scale, and why Bagul might be the most anti-cinema entity in the genre.

From lawnmower jumpscares to ghost kids in the attic, the trio unpacks Sinister's brutal rhythms, the ethics of exploitation, and that final, gutting fade to black.

Spoiler alert: no one makes it out alive. Not even the home movies.
