Join us for an in depth discussion and analysis of the 2016 supernatural horror film: The Autopsy of Jane Doe

Directed by: André Øvredal

Starring: Brian Cox, Emile Hirsch, and Olsen Catherine Kelly

This week we bring you a more recent film for our third instalment of spooky season. What starts off as almost a crime procedural plot turns into a supernatural mystery with each step of the title character’s autopsy. Olwen Catherine Kelly does a spectacular job as Jane Doe - although she doesn’t actually have any lines. As always spoilers ahead - this is definitely one you want to see before hearing the ending.

Scare-O-Meter Ratings:

Tasha - 8 out of 10

Julia - 6 out of 10

Jack-O-Lantern Ratings:

Julia - 3 out of 5

Tasha - 4.5 out of 5

Consensus: One of Tasha’s favourites - Julia is slightly less enthused . . . a solid choice for spooky season.

Episode 97 - Hellraiser, don't give uncle Frank the box...

Join us for an in depth discussion and analysis of the 1987 supernatural cult horror classic: Hellraiser

Written & Directed by: Clive Barker

Starring: Clare Higgins, Ashley Laurence, Sean Chapman, & Doug Bradley

For our October Friday the 13th choice we will be talking about this body-horror filled classic based on the novella The Hellhound Heart (also written by Clive Barker). This film starts off a series spanning multiple decades and brought us “Pinhead” expertly portrayed by Doug Bradley under 6 hours of makeup and prosthetics. There will be spoilers for the movie and the book - since there are only minor changes.

Scare-O-Meter Ratings:

Tasha - 7 out of 10

Julia - 7.5 out of 10

Jack-O-Lantern Ratings:

Julia - 4.5 out of 5

Tasha - 3.75 out of 5

Consensus: If you can handle body-horror this one’s for you, if not . . . don’t open that box.

Next Episode

Episode 99 - Night of the Living Dead, they’re coming to get you Barbra!

Join us for an in depth discussion and analysis of the 1968 (almost) first zombie film: Night of the Living Dead.

Directed by: George A. Romero

Starring: Duane Jones and Judith O’Dea

For our last regular instalment of October we bring you the ultimate zombie movie. The characters call them ghouls but this film started almost every enduring zombie trait. From moving as a slow hoard to being dispatched by destroying the brain. This is an absolute must watch for any horror fan - and it’s light on the scares so a great choice for newbies to the genre as well.

Scare-O-Meter Ratings:

Tasha - 3 out of 10

Julia - 3 out of 10

Jack-O-Lantern Ratings:

Julia - 3.5 out of 5

Tasha - 3.5 out of 5

Consensus: An integral film in the evolution of horror cinema . . . but not so scary as a modern viewing.
