Episode 17: Fantastic Fest 2018 Recap: ‘Halloween’, ‘Suspiria,’ and Much More!


Episode 17: Fantastic Fest 2018 Recap: ‘Halloween’, ‘Suspiria,’ and Much More: a recap of all that was amazing, strange and meh at this year’s genre film festival at the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, TX.

On this week’s podcast, co-host Dave Dierksen and I recap the wide arrange of great (and not so great) films at this year’s Fantastic Fest at the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, TX, an eight-day crash course in genre filmmaking from around the globe.

Selections discussed include the new “Halloween” film (and meeting Jamie Lee Curtis in person!), the world première of “Bad Times at The El Royale,” the U.S. première of “Suspiria,” and other gems including the black metal biopic “Lords of Chaos” and “Between Worlds,” a Nicolas Cage movie so crazy, it even surpasses “Wicker Man” and “Vampire’s Kiss” in weirdness.

This is just the tip of the iceberg however, and there was a treasure trove of films to view and discuss, (including Netflix originals “Hold The Dark,” “The Night Comes For Us,” and “The Apostle”), so this is your one-stop shop to catch up on all the films you need to catch this year.
