The Blood on Satan's Claw - "These Old Superstitions Die Hard"
It's the middle of summer - the perfect time to dive into some folk horror with THE BLOOD ON SATAN'S CLAW (1971). A small village succumbs to the power of the Devil through a serious of unfortunate events. This movie predates "The Wicker Man" but covers some very similar territory and lore in 18th century England.
This wonderful selection from friend of the podcast Alan Simmons, the Curator of Cult for the Arrow Video streaming service, Arrow Player! Check out some of our selections on their platform!
We hope you enjoy reminiscing about the old Yeoman ways with us this week!

Basket Case - "What's in the Basket?"
Basket Case - "What's in the Basket?"
Just a sweet little story about a kid from upstate New York who finally heads to the big city for a little sight seeing - or REVENGE - with a really big totally unsuspicious basket. We learn how family secrets can literally tear people apart in BASKET CASE (1982). From the mind of cult cinema auteur, Frank Henenelotter, this film that could pair perfectly with De Palma's SISTERS (1972). Double Feature anyone?
We hope you enjoy this episode that is fun for the whole family, or maybe just parts of it!
