Unsung Horrors

It's No Rules November, where we each pick a film to cover, and it doesn't matter how many views it has. Brace yourself for the insanity that is Avi Nesher's Doppelgänger starring Drew Barrymore. A horror-tinged neo-noir that riffs on everything from Brian De Palma to Breakfast at Tiffany's. We always warn folks that we will be spoiling the films we cover, we we STRONGLY urge you to watch this one before listening. Trust us. And go in blind if you can. As of this recording, it is available to watch on Tubi, Prime, and Freevee.

From the man who brought you Halloween...not John Carpenter, but the producer Moustapha Akkad...comes this episode about one of the most confounding horror movies of the 1980s. We give you more questions than insights, but Sam from B&S About Movies joins us to be equally perplexed.

Plenty of horror movie directors cut their chops in this genre, but few had a career like Gerard Damiano, who made the "Citizen Kane of sex films," Deep Throat. This week, we discuss his only non-sex film, 1970s wallpaper, and why we're so transfixed with this film even though nothing happens in it.

Shawgust wouldn't be complete without our friend Ian Jane (Rock! Shock! Pop! and Queens Comic Podcast). This week, we're discussing The Enchanting Ghost, which plays out more like a gothic romance than a horror film, but is at a turning point of Shaw Brothers Studios when they were just getting into the horror genre. Hear all of our thoughts and hold onto your butts for Lance's double feature pick!

It's Shawgust once again and we were feeling brave enough to cover another Hua Shan film. We let go of common sense, talked about how watching this and Portrait ain Crystal is basically the same as taking acid, and highlighted some of our favorite moments from the film.

This week we celebrate the late, great Hal Needham with the closest he ever got to making a horror movie (or a giallo, depending on how you look at it). Death Car on the Freeway combines so many of the things we love including a stuntman-turned-director, feminism, and complaining about traffic. As of this recording, the film is available to watch on YouTube.
