About this listen
After a much-needed break, Roger and Troy are back together and kicking things off with some tales from their time at the Houston Horror Film Festival before diving headfirst into Mario Bava’s gloriously twisted Bay of Blood. They unpack the tangled web of greed, betrayal, and backstabbing (literal and otherwise) that drives this proto-slasher classic, all while marveling at just how ahead of its time it was in terms of creative kills. The duo discuss the film’s famously brutal death scenes, its undeniable influence on later horror hits, and why keeping track of the body count here feels like a sport. There’s talk of pacing, atmosphere, and the strange charm of a movie where everyone seems to have murder on their mind. And of course, they can’t help but chew on that shocker of a final scene that proves in Bava’s world, no one is safe. It’s a blood-soaked reunion you won’t want to miss.
