Film Fallout Podcast #134 - Happy Blood Feast for a Possessed Paranoiac

Published: Oct. 31, 2018, 9:47 a.m.

Christopher Cross and Dylan Schwan celebrate Halloween (the best holiday) by talking about four different horror films. They each picked two films the other hadn't seen and discussed them for various reasons. Chris chose Happy Death Day and Paranoiac for Dylan to watch and Dylan chose Blood Feast and Possession for Chris to watch. One of them was significantly more generous in their choices than the other. They discuss whether or not Happy Death Day is anything more than the Groundhog Day teen slasher film it seems to be. They also go into what merits Blood Feast still has almost 60 years out from its release. Paranoiac is discussed in terms of its strength in the midst of the sea of Hammer horror films it's a part of. Last but not least, they talk about the transgressive Possession. Next week, Chris and Dylan will give their opinions on the new Suspiria directed by Luca Guadagnino. Since they've both seen the original as well, there will be comparisons and contrasts made between the two films.
