This episode we check in with each other during this time of Quarantine and talk about the Oliver Stone horror film THE HAND (1981) starring Michael Caine.

What was the first horror film you remember watching? Some people don't even remember the name of them. Let's go over a couple shall we.

This mid-week episode, I share some musings on the underrated 1978 whodunnit THE CAT AND THE CANARY (1978) as well as the modern murder mystery genre in general.

Patrick and I talk about the cult comedy/horror/satire set in a haunted hospital: Garth Marenghi's Darkplace (2004) starring Matthew Holness and Richard Ayoade

In the latest episode, filmmaker and author JJ DECEGLIE and I chat about the incredibly powerful horror flick SESSION 9 (2001) by Brad Anderson and Steve Gevedon.

We revert to our old format wherein we chat OVER the actual short film we were reviewing - an old, rare short horror film called THE DUMMY (1982).

Tonight, we are checking out an episode of TV SHOW Friday the 13th. NOT the film series about the saga of JASON VORHEES but a very smart, engaging TV show about antiques dealers going on supernatural adventures (sort of like the TV show SUPERNATURAL but in the 80's). It's an anthology show, which means no real big narrative connecting all the episodes (except the main characters, but they don't have an arc from episode to episode). This episode was directed by cinematic legend DAVID...

In this episode, we review the 1983 precursor to the 2014 horror flick THE VVITCH called EYES OF FIRE.

Just a special re-upload from a couple of years ago. I tried giving the ELEVATOR GAME (a game you ride the elevator a certain number of times and at the end of it all you get to v isit another dimension), and brought it to Will for scrunity.

In this retro episode, Will and I take a look at one of David Firth's most controversial online shorts.

In this episode of UNWRITTEN RULERS, we review The Hills Have Eyes 1st Draft Screenplay by Wes Craven originally entitled BLOOD RELATIONS.

This is the very FIRST episode Will and I recorded for the show. It's 976-EVIL (1988)directed by Robert Englund and we recorded it in the same room as each other.

Patrick and I have a chat about the Czech version of Beauty and the Beast from the 70's: PANNA A NETVOR (1978). It's kind of a horror film, kind of a art film, but certainly the most unique take on the original fairy tale, at least up there with Jean Cocteau's version.

In this episode of The Unwritten Rulers, we review Apocalypse Now (1979) 1st Draft Screenplay by John Milius, review the difference between the first draft, final draft and different cuts of the film.

In the latest episode of the podcast, we review one of the greatest horror-short films ever made. An effective little supernatural tale told in stop-motion (but with human actors... you'll have to watch it to understand) about a thief who robs a house. That's all we can tell you without giving it away.

Patrick and I discuss the vivid, horrific, crazy LAIR OF THE WHITE WORM (1988) directed by Ken Russell. A truly insane horror film that captures 80's exploitation perfectly, the film adapts Bram (Dracula) Stoker's novel of the same name. A giant killer snake and its vampire-but-with-snake-like-characteristics familiar stalk the countryside looking for human victims after the skull of an ancient monster is dug u.

Digging this one up from the archives, Will and I review this incredibly obscure, incredibly shocking PSA from England: Apaches (1977). In it, group of kids play cowboys and indians (actually, they just play the indians - as in Native Americans; in this case, from the Apache tribe) on a farm in rural england. Ignoring all safety precautions, they are one-by-one killed off in a variety of 'final destination' style deaths - each one more shocking and sick than the last. They only have...

Going back to the archives, my very first podcast I recorded for this channel (not the very first podcast I've done though). It's a series that i'm reviving and recording new episodes for available only on this channel. It's called UNWRITTEN RULERS: THE UNMADE FILM REVIEW where we... well, review unmade films: first drafts of screenplays, final stages of pre-production, unreleased movies, lost movies. We take all the evidence we can find on the unmade film of THAT episode and review it. This...

We go back in the way back machine and talk about our favourite episode of the Anthology TV SHOW by Steven Spielberg: MIRROR, MIRROR directed by Martin Scorsese.
