For legal reasons, I have to say that neither Dave nor I are serial killers. But we certainly do our research. In this corner, we have a couple of gritty 80's serial killers named Henry and Otis....and in this corner, dawning their signature barnyard masks, it's the Killers from "You're Next.". But which one deserves the title of "Slasher" more?
We have always maintained that A24 is.....well, a mixed bag. Movies like Hereditary or Midsommar can seem genius to some and boring to others. What can't be denied, however, is the effect that said movies have had on horror and horror authors. Dystopian and horror author, Davide Tarsitano was nice enough to come by the show to promote his latest book, "Hollow," and to tell us how certain A24 projects have impacted him and his work.
This week we are giving praise to The Father of Zombies, the Godfather of the Dead we are ranking George A Romero's top films, Chris and Dave each made a list to compare and talk about it, so listen and see how similar or different each list is. Feel free to let us know who had the better list Chris or Dave.
Space!! It's a huge place, but there's only room for one winner in these matches. Sure, we could have pitted two classics like Alien or The Thing against each other. But what fun is that? We want movies that don't usually end up in that discussion. Enter Slither in this corner and Event Horizon in the next. It doesn't matter if you stay here on earth or go millions of years into space.....death will find a way to come get you.
