Projector's broken, welcome to season 2. This episode's book is Heart-Beast by Tanith Lee 

We talk about Terrifier 2. Art was here.

We talk about Red Rooms, an unflinching, unforthcoming (meta???) scum classic about a woman who attends the trial of an internet murderer in Montreal. 

We talk about Alien Report, a great film about when people stand too close to you. 

The Scary of Sixty-First and Toolbox Murders, two films where the regular horror of having a landlord is compounded by moving into a building that lives as a summary of the rotten, putrid evil at work at the highest levels of power. 

We discuss, in great and deserved depth, two of the great demented peaks of 2000s horror cinema: House Of Wax and Orphan, both directed by Jaume Collet-Serra

In this episode we discuss the entire span of Rob Zombie's directorial career before focusing on the much-maligned Lords Of Salem. He's great. I don't expect you to watch Three From Hell or anything, that sucks, but if we sat there and figured out he was great then you should too. 

This episode we talk about two unclassifiable pieces of nightmare art from the darkest corners of the scum cinema cannon, both of which were released over a decade after the conclusion of principal photography when key members of cast and crew had long since died. It's an understandable struggle to imagine a film more strange and cursed that Andrew Getty's passion project The Evil Within but that's why it took a special kind of mind to imagine Flexing With Monty. 

This week we discuss Bette Gordon's 1983 film Variety which focuses on a woman taking a job in a porn theatre by way of kathy acker, jane jacobs, laura mulvey and, briefly, henry rollins. 

This week we talk about a whole bunch of Messed Up Guy In A Band documentaries, focusing primarily on Citizen Shane and Dead Hands Dig Deep.
