    Irish Horror 101 (with Katie McGrath) + Nosferatu, Weapons & other 2025 horror movie chat
    Oct 9 2025
    Our resident scream queen, Katie McGrath, rejoins us for our annual Halloween episode. To start, we're talking about our spooky highs and lows of 2025, breaking down the year in horror as we go. Afterwards, we dive into Irish horror, discussing the common themes, monsters and history that stretch from the likes of The Devil's Doorway, The Cellar and The Hole in the Ground through to the more recent Irish language horrors An Taibhse and Fréwaka.

    Aidan Gillen retrospective + Anemone trailer reaction & some random movie recs
    Sep 17 2025
    And now for something completely different... Well, not really. I Know That Face will continue to be your favourite character actor-focused podcast, but with a bit of a contemporary twist. For the first ten minutes of each show, we'll be discussing new trailers, new movies or just what we've been watching recently. This week, we're talking about the return of Daniel Day-Lewis in Anemone, the New French Extremity and some movies Stephen recently saw. In character actor territory, we're discussing one of Ireland's favourite sons, Aidan Gillen. From career beginnings in Some Mother's Son to some of his best TV work in Love/Hate and Game of Thrones, as well as his more recent work in Dublin detective drama Barber, we'll examine every smirking, sneering facet of Aidan Gillen's devilish smile.

    For our final episode of the season, we're covering a Korean-American superstar. Starting out on The Walking Dead, Steven Yeun has gone from strength to strength on both sides of the Pacific. He's made indie action horrors like Joe Lynch's Mayhem, while also collaborating with South Korean auteurs like Bong Joon-ho on Okja and Mickey 17 and Lee Chang-dong on Burning. Yeun has transitioned easily between film and TV with roles in the Prime Video animated superhero show Invincible and on Netflix's series Beef. The actor was Oscar-nominated for his role in 2020's Minari and has consistently worked with interesting directors, such as Jordan Peele on Nope and Boots Riley on Sorry to Bother You.
