In our latest episode Ash and Jon watch Sam Raimi's Drag Me to Hell and discuss the Gothic Marxism of the subprime mortgage crisis and witchcraft as direct action. We also take a moment to celebrate the life and times of little known Gothic fanfic writer Karl Marx.

Our minds were so completely shattered by Mother! that we wound up recording almost two whole episodes in one go. We've stitched together the remains and brought you the first of Lost Transmissions, our new, and totally sporadic, sampling of cut Horror Vanguard content. Let's get back into the fray of the movie Lenin referred to as: "cinema in decay."

Ash and Jon take a break from the world of spooky leftist theory and head to a beachside carnival for some rest and encounters with the ever-present specter of our own mortalities. Are we ghouls exiled from the real? Are we phantoms in our own lives? Are we podcasters trying to explore the politics of the eerie? Is this all just a metaphor for class consciousness? Tune in and find out!

It was Ash's birthday so we got super existential by watching a weird British art-horror film. What is the black tower? How do we survive the bleak alienation of late capitalism? All that, and more besides on this episode!

We're Talking John Smith's The Black Tower!
