We nearly called this episode 'The Xmasist' but thought better of it.

For our last show of 2025, we welcome special guest, author Matt Rogerson to help us navigate the vagaries of The Vactican's response to the deluge of Pazuzu-infused films from the 70s and beyond and we round out our coverage of the unofficial 'Unholy Child' trilogy we started with Rosemary's Baby a little while ago.

We also talk our favourite Christmas horror films, Rob Reiner, What Have You Watched, take some listener comments and revisit regular feature, How Many Cats are In it?

Wishing you all the very best for the festive season and we'll be back in a couple of weeks to kick off 2026 with some great new episodes.

Merry Xmas(ist)!!!

This week, the boys revisit murky, Lynchian, purgatorial nightmares Jacob's Ladder and Silent Hill.

Expect laughs, trivia, dubious pronunciations and regular feature, How Many Cats are In It?

Enjoy!

Welcome back to the Morgue where this time, we get Extremely French and talk about Pascal Laugier's seminal horror Martyrs and wince-inducing pregnancy home invasion nightmare, Inside.

As usual we recommend you watch the films before you listen to the show but honestly, these films are going to take you to places you might not want to go... we think they're great, though!

Welcome back to the Morgue

This week, Gaz and Ken take a look at another smashing double bill - What We Do in the Shadows (the film, not the show) and Werewolves Within!

Learn the history of the long-standing vampire/werewolf feud alongside Hellboy talk, John Carpenter-related news and our regular segment, How Many Cats Are In It?

Listen, like, share, enjoy!

Welcome back to the Morgue!

In this episode, we talk about four films we think would be great for a Halloween marathon (perhaps an all-nighter) and talk to writer/producer of TERRIFYING, found-footage, zoom call seance gone wrong masterpiece, Host. Other films include You Might Be The Killer, Scare Me and Deadstream.

As well as our regular insights into the films we've chosen, regular feature How Many Cats Are In It is back as well plus we've got a competition for you which you can enter to win your very own Live From Manchester Morgue Trucker hat!

Make yourself a brew and get listening!

Happy Spooktober and welcome back to the Morgue for this very special bonus episode, as we talk about our hot picks for this year's Grimmfest horror film festival and look back at some of our favourites from previous years, including a retrospective on The Soska Sisters' seminal body-mod revenge horror, American Mary!

This episode is also packed to the gills with interviews - check out our chats with Sergio Pinheiro and Andy Myers (Wormtown), Pierre Tsigaridis (Frankie Maniac Woman) and Remington Smith (Landlord)!

Normal services resumes in just a couple of short weeks for our Halloweenisode!

Welcome back to the Morgue and thanks for joining us as we kick off spooky season 2025 in style!

It's officially autumn in our part of the world and what better way to get into the SPIRIT (haha) of things than to get cosy and watch a couple of classic haunted house movies... then listen to a podcast about them.

We talk about both franchises and the shady doings of the Warrens along with news and regular segments, What Have You Watched and How Many Cats Are In It?

Enjoy the show - let us know how we're doing with a comment!

Welcome back to the morgue!

This week, we talk about two seminal 1980s body-horror meltfests with The Fly and the Blob.

We do our usual retrospective analysis of these two classics alongside a bit of news, What Have You Watched and our new (probably not) regular feature, How Many Cats Are in it!

So go on, make yourself a nice cup of tea and sit down with us for about an hour of horror fun! Don't forget to leave us a 5 star rating and a comment!
