Horror Babes

It’s finally here - the end of Bong Joon-Ho Month. We’re sad to see it go, but it’s been some of our favorite work so far. To round out the tour through his career, we were joined by returning guest PremRock (from the Horror or Nah? episode on The Invitation) to discuss the Oscar- and everything else-winning Parasite (2019). We’re diving into dark comedy, class issues, paralleled flood scenes and why Bong Joon-Ho is a god-tier filmmaker.

There are for sure SPOILERS, but only about Parasite and Snowpiercer this time, so we went a little easy on y’all.

You can find his latest album, joining with Curly Castro to create ShrapKnel, here:

What's that? You wanted more Bong Joon-Ho? Well, Babes, we have you covered! This week, Topher has Nicole on Horror or Nah? to discuss 'Snowpiercer' (2013). We're talkin trains, planes, and revolutions. We go in depth with a bit of genre analysis to see whether or not we can add Snowpiercer to the horror canon, and discuss where the lines are for post-apocalyptic movies at large.

This movie has been out for like seven years so don't y'all already know there's gonna be SPOILERS!? Get your dang lives together already.

Bong Joon-Ho Month continues!! We're talking Antarctic Journal (2005) this week. Maybe it wasn't directed by him, but he wrote it! And it's good! And so is Song Kang-Ho! We're talking spooky ice deserts, hauntings, and why men are dumb. Join us in an exploration that doesn't involve trekking 1700 kilometers to the South Pole.

There are 100% SPOILERS here, but this movie would be a sophomore in high school by now! Get your life together!

It's Bong Joon-Ho Month! Because we said so! Because he's amazing! And we're kicking it off with The Host (2006). We're diving into class dynamics, South Korean history, the South Korean film industry and just generally every last bit of Bong Joon Ho's amazingness.

OBVIOUSLY there are SPOILERS this is a MOVIE PODCAST ya dorks!

As promised, here's the link to an article about the practice of seo-ri:

Now we're all in the bunker! We're here here with y'all to talk about the movie that singlehandedly reinvigorated the zombie film: 28 Days Later. We're talking bad social distancing techniques, amazing cinematography techniques and idiotic pandemic techniques.

First off, SPOILERS! There are kids graduating high school who weren't even born when this came out y'all - get it together!

Also, some discussion of sexual assault, so take care.

Hey Babes! Nicole is here with a spooky narration for all of your Social Distancing needs. Cuddle up, grab a drink, and listen to this suspenseful tale by one of our favs, Kaitlynn Cooney (kmcooney on Reddit).

Trigger Warning: necrophilia, child abuse.

Quarantines are for coffee and conversation, so Topher wanted to INVITE you to join him and rapper PremRock in having both of those while trying to sort out of if The Invitation (2015) is a horror film or just a strange little dinner in the Hollywood Hills.

Yo! SPOILERS. This movie has been on the Netflix for like four years y'all.

NICOLE'S OUT OF THE BUNKER!! And the Babes are celebrating with one of our fav movies. Welcome spring with us as we talk about a fun horror romp: Tucker and Dale Vs. Evil (2010). Get back in the swing that spring brings and jive with us on some goofy, warm-hearted, cousinly love.

Obvi, there's a whole mess of SPOILERS here, so don't come after us with a chainsaw or a hive o' wasps just because we ruined a ten year old movie. See y'all, babes!

Nicole is BACK in the bunker so this week Topher is joined by friend and artist Shannon Stovall to talk a deep cut - Tarsem Singh's feature debut, The Cell. If you like art chats, you're gonna enjoy this. Dive deep (get it??) with us on a weird, risky, sci-fi horror mashup!

SPOILERS ya goofs!

Nicole is out of the bunker! For one episode at least. We needed her for a Very Special Episode of 'Horror or Nah?' where we take a movie that is listed as horror but maybe shouldn't be? Who knows? You will, but only if you listen! It's fun!

Heads up, there's the usual SPOILERS and also discussions of violence.
