What’s up, horror fans? This week on the podcast, I’m joined by Kyle Prescott, as we dive into three standout alien horror films—Signs from 2002, Dark Skies from 2013, and Nope from 2022. At first glance, they all center on extra-terrestrial threats, but it’s the human drama beneath the surface that unites them. We break down each film’s plot and themes, from Signs' intimate story of faith and grief to Dark Skies' portrayal of a family unraveling under invisible invasion, and Nope’s genre-bending commentary on trauma, spectacle, and survival. Our conversation explores common threads like the focus on family, the fear of the unseen, and how each film uses atmosphere over jump scares to unsettle. We also discuss how these stories reflect deep psychological fears—loss of control, being watched, and the powerlessness of confronting forces beyond comprehension. Whether you’re a fan of slow-burn spiritual horror or mind-bending alien metaphors, this episode uncovers what makes these films terrifying, thought-provoking, and unforgettable.
