  • Cat Girl Summer: The Curse of the Cat People (1944)

    Welcome back to The Silver Scream, don't let the title fool you...there isn't a Cat People in this movie. Instead we get a lovely, oddly personal, tale about childhood imagination and the ghost of our dad's ex-wife.

    The Curse of the Cat People (1944) takes place 6 years after the first film. Oliver Reed and Alice are married and have a daughter, Amy. Amy is a creative, whimsical child who struggles to relate to her peers. One day, Amy starts talking to an imaginary friend...the ghost of Irena! And then she makes friends with an elderly woman who hates her daughter, there's a lot happening. Also this movie takes place in THEE Sleepy Hollow. Anyway, listen and find out more!

  • S3E2: NightBitch (2024) w/ Caitlin Grant from Plug It Up!

    In this house, we respect ALL Night-Bitches!

    Welcome to the Silver Scream, a podcast where two friends, and sometimes three friends, try to find some good werewolf movies. To say NightBitch counts as a werewolf movie is to know your history of dogs in werewolf films. This film is an excellent character study about changing, generational trauma, self-discovery, and self-empowerment. The following conversation is one of respect, appreciation, and vulnerability all centered around Marielle Heller's NightBitch.

    Joining us this episode is our friend & podcast host Caitlin Grant, her show Plug it Up! A podcast about the Monstrous Femme aligns perfectly with the subjects in this movie. Thanks again for joining us & entertaining us with a spot-on Count Orlock impression!
