Gods of the Deep (2023) takes a group of intrepid explorers into the depth of an Antarctic trench to discover why there is an Ancient Temple. This HP Lovecraft World Premiere was unintentionally silly, and full of bad logic and cheap sets, but might qualify as so bad it's good.

Legendary Television and Apple + have teamed up to deliver a globe and timeline trotting adventure that follows the pursuit of truth about the mysterious and devastating Godzilla and his fellow Titans. Expect lots of great character study and adventuring, with just enough kaiju action to remind you of the stakes in play. Top shelf production values and the use of both Wyatt and Kurt Russell playing the same character in different ages makes for fine popcorn fare.
Cosmic Horror screenwriting legend Dennis Paoli joined Eric Li to discuss his collaborations with Stuart Gordon, Barbara Crampton, and the new film Suitable Flesh. The master storyteller is not surprisingly a real fun interview. Enjoy this special Podcast Extra!

Frogman injects some fresh air into the somewhat stale shaky cam horror sub-genre.

You know the story. You’ve got the gist of the Catholic Church’s involvement in exorcisms. Little kids probably freak you out. You either terrified of demonic possession or you’re not. Point is, you probably have a well-defined idea of what the Exorcist: Believer is going offer.

If a film title contains the word “haunting” does that automatically qualify it as a horror film? Horror has a deep and weird history with “The Haunting of…” films. Haunting in Connecticut, The Enfield Haunting, Haunting of Bly Manor, Haunting of Hill House, the Haunting of Julia, and even the Haunting of Sharon Tate. So many hauntings.
