And with this, Series 2 is done and dusted. To close out this sophomore series, we looked at British fan favourite, Ben Wheatley, with the debuting Caitlyn and Faye, as well as the returning Kat and Mike.
For this episode we get deep into the weeds of 2011’s evergreen Hitman/Gangster/Cult/Folk Horror, Kill List. And by deep I mean deep, this is the single most exhaustive episode we have done in a long time and it was an absolute delight to be be part of. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I did hosting and editing it. Then in the second half, we look at the much more divisive pandemic-era folk horror in the woods techno horror with In the Earth. Yeah, Mr Wheatley’s movies evade easy characterisation. Not to front load the episode too much, we dig deep into this 2021 movie too, finding a movie that is so diverse that it means something different to all of us.
