This week on the podcast, Dan and Veronica sit down for a freewheeling, wide-ranging discussion spurred on by Veronica’s recent article about the current state of horror movies (specifically around the use of the term “elevated horror.”)
Is “elevated horror” a new thing? Is it a real thing? And why do we gravitate towards the base thrills of a cheap, exploitative jump-scare machine sometimes? We talk about this, and much more (don’t worry, we get a few jabs in at Hereditary and the Suspiria remake, in case you were wondering) on this great new episode!
Movies mentioned in our discussion:
Hereditary
The Babadook
Suspiria (2018)
The Curse of La Llorona
Don’t Knock Twice
Wish Upon
The Perfection
Under the Shadow
Don’t Look Now
The Sentinel
The Changeling
The Conjuring
Insidious
Puppet Master
Popcorn
Truth or Dare
The Bye Bye Man
