Antrum is an alleged cursed film made in the late 70s about a sister and brother who journey to an ominous forest to dig a hole to hell in order to contact their deceased dog. The film is presented in its entirety and is bookended with documentary footage regarding the deaths connected with previous screenings.

Next up, a film about Emily Mortimer’s character in 30 Rock who had Avian Bone Syndrome (hollow bones). Just kidding, but Emily Mortimer does star. It’s available on demand now.

I’m going to be real with you, dear listeners - a couple of your hosts are going through some family stuff right now and haven’t been able to record. We’ve been around since 2014 and have never skipped an episode, but I knew it had to happen eventually. We hope you accept our apologies and enjoy this episode from way, way back when we were wee podcasting babes. It originally aired five years ago today, as a matter of fact.

We promise to be back with an all new episode next time. Thanks for sticking with us, guys. -Amy

Synopsis: Who killed Alice Palmer? Just kidding...sort of...
This is a Fauxdoc-style film, covering the events surrounding the death of 16-year old Alice Palmer. After going missing (we presume she drowned) during a family trip, Alice's body is eventually discovered floating in the water. Once this happens, the movie jumps from one subplot to the next as it attempts to discover what happened to her. The ending may not be exactly what you'd expect.

Next up, it’s our 150th episode! That right, our Sasquatchcentennial. In honor of the occasion we’ll be checking out a bigfoot movie that’s currently on Amazon Prime, Abominable. Join us next time to celebrate another pointless milestone, won’t you?

Writer: Drew & John Erick Dowdle

Director: John Erick Dowdle

Synopsis: When police discover a trove of video tapes in an abandoned house they learn that a serial killer has been living in their town, & is responsible for dozens of what they had thought to be unrelated murders. The killer is an expert at throwing investigators off his scent, constantly varying his MO to baffle profilers. It is only through the killer’s meticulously catalogued tape library that authorities are finally able to connect the pieces, but by this time the mysterious figure is long gone.

Next movie will be Icelandic horror flick, I Remember You (currently streaming on US Netflix).

What'd we think of Lake Mungo?
(Out of 5 stars)

Next time we'll be checking out The Taking of Deborah Logan, or "The Taking", as it was going to originally be called. It's a horror film from 2014, shot in the same fauxdoc (I just can't use "mockumentary" in a serious way) style as our last one, Lake Mungo. The "Documentary" the film is centered around is an exploration into the declining health of Alzheimers patient, Deborah Logan. The movie starts out as one would expect but things begin to decline, for the characters, pretty rapidly. Check out the trailer & then tune in for our discussion!
