  • Snowtown (2011): Episode 40
    Aug 22 2025

    In this episode, we dive into one of the most disturbing true crime stories in Australian history: The Snowtown Murders. Also known as the “Bodies in Barrels” case, this series of killings left an entire community shaken and forever marked the small town of Snowtown with infamy. We’ll explore how John Bunting manipulated those around him, targeted society’s most vulnerable, and created an atmosphere of fear and control. The movie is told from the perspective of Jamie Vlassakis, a teenager drawn into Bunting’s world. Join us as we connect the real-life horrors with their cinematic portrayal, uncovering how the movie captures the suffocating dread of abuse, complicity, and violence.

  • Indie Horror Highlight: Uncontained (2025) Interview with Morley Nelson
    Jul 31 2025

    I interview Director/Writer/Actor Morley Nelson on his first feature length film. This is a family affair with the whole Nelson family making it on the big screen. I get to talk to Nicole Nelson about her part in this project along with Morley and his experiences being a director and actor alongside his family.

    A mysterious drifter struggles to protect an abandoned boy and his little sister from an infection that turns people into a feral-like state. Uncontained is available on Amazon, AppleTV, and it can be streamed on Screambox.

  • Indie Horror Highlights: The Blade Cuts Deeper Interview
    Feb 22 2025

    I got a chance to interview Gene Dolders, director of the indie horror film The Blade Cuts Deeper.The Blade Cuts Deeper is a Giallo-inspired, slasher movie set in Liverpool, UK. Content has consequences...Many people want their five minutes of fame but for some, it comes at the ultimate price - their life!' Meet John Abbott, narcissistic host of infamous real-crime show Lights, Camera, KILL. Known for its lurid re-enactments of the darkest of trespasses, it has made him rich by exploiting pain and suffering. Yet while Abbott basks shamelessly in the limelight, one victim has seen enough. Broken by his loss, the man has a burning thirst for revenge - and now he wants to make Abbott bleed.
