Horror Cinema Obsession

In this week’s episode of Horror Cinema Obsession, Richard and Angeles dive headfirst into Exorcism of God (2021)—a film where the holy gets hella horny, and exorcisms come with moans straight outta OnlyFans.

We break down the blasphemous chaos, from Father Peter’s regrettable possession to glowing-eyed demons with major daddy issues. Is this the most absurd exorcism movie ever made? Probably. And we’re here for every unholy second of it.

Whether you're a horror fanatic or just here for the chaos, this episode is proof that sometimes, even the devil can’t compete with bad decisions.

The Machinist (2004): Insomnia, Guilt, and Christian Bale’s Psychological Spiral

In this episode of Horror Cinema Obsession, Richard and Angeles dive headfirst into the bleak, haunting world of The Machinist (2004). Christian Bale drops over 60 pounds to play Trevor Reznik—a man who hasn’t slept in a year, is seeing things (or someone), and is spiraling into madness under the crushing weight of guilt.

We explore the film’s disturbing themes of insomnia, isolation, and psychological breakdown, talk about what it feels like to actually watch this movie (spoiler: it’s unnerving), and break down the moments that mattered—from the infamous factory accident to the Route 666 carnival ride straight to hell.

If you've ever hallucinated a bald guy in sunglasses or wondered how much guilt one person can carry, this episode is for you.
