So You Don't Have To: Silent Hill: Revelation

It's buggy, the level design is wonky, inventory management's a pain, and the dialogue trees make no sense. It's the sequel to a movie that's based on a video game made with less than half the budget of the original, so you know it's quality entertainment.

Join Dawn as she levels up in patience, taking cheap shots at 2012's Silent Hill: Revelation.

What's the big revelation? Sean Bean doesn't die AND Sean Bean dies.

Episode 36: Santa's Helpers

Christmas in July continues as Dawn and Jen look at Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale, another twist on classic Christmas fare from Finland. There's something buried under a mountain and when it's free, the true meaning of Christmas is revealed.

It's a really wonderful film with a great heart, some fantastic nose acting,  and a few horrific implications when you actually stop to think about that ending. No, really, it's super-creepy. So of course they recommend it for your whole family. 

There's also an update on what the Women In Caskets are up to, a HUGE thanks to everyone we saw at RTX, and another depressingly necessary commentary on current events.

Thanks always to The Shape for the intro/outro music.

Episode 35: Santa's Shadow

Welcome to Christmas in July where Dawn and Jen use the non-holiday to talk about some holiday movies they might have forgotten to watch over the actual holidays. Today's feature is 2015's twist on the family holiday movie: Krampus.

Along with some truly brilliant practical puppetry, an A+ subversion of sappy Christmas tales, and a truly horror-worthy ending, the hosts sing the praises of the humble casting director, Jen has a problem with envelopes and Dawn takes a missed plot opportunity and makes it better with a Tremors reference. 

Thanks always to The Shape for the intro/outro music.

Episode 33: Deconstruction 101

After our look at The Final Girls, Dawn and Jen examine the concept of horror movie deconstruction in a bit more detail. There's a little bit of history, some great examples, and, well, a few detours to talk about peanut butter cups, The Brady Bunch and Jen's continuing crush on Josh Hartnett. 

All of this with a look at what's coming up for the Women In Caskets for the next few months.

Episode 23: Love Hurts?

It's Valentine's Day and love is in the air. Or is that the putrid stench of decay? Honestly, we can't tell. Join Jen and Dawn as they look at four of horror's greatest romantic tropes: Love Will Save Us, The Family that Slays Together Stays Together, Love Will Drive You Crazy and Sex Kills.

We've got a lot of love for love, so join us as we show the more romantic side of horror.
