Half Hour of Horror: A Horror Film Podcast, presented by Love Horror

The frights you forgot — revisited in half an hour. In this episode of Half Hour of Horror, the horror film podcast from Love Horror, we revisit The Thing (1982), John Carpenter's legendary sci-fi horror classic set in the frozen isolation of Antarctica. Starring Kurt Russell as helicopter pilot R.J. MacReady, The Thing follows a team of American researchers who encounter an alien organism capable of perfectly imitating any living host. As paranoia spreads through the remote outpost, trust quickly dissolves. Anyone could be the creature, and no one can be certain who is still human. Although The Thing (1982) was initially overlooked on release, it has since become one of the most influential 1980s horror movies, widely praised for its intense atmosphere, Rob Bottin's groundbreaking practical effects and its unforgettable creature design. Today it is regarded as one of the greatest examples of sci-fi horror and body horror cinema. In this horror podcast episode you'll get: • A spoiler-filled synopsis of The Thing (1982) • Our honest horror movie review and discussion • Behind-the-scenes trivia about John Carpenter's production and Rob Bottin's iconic practical effects • Discussion of the film's themes of paranoia, isolation and identity • Our final verdict and horror rating out of 5 If you enjoy horror podcasts, creature features and classic sci-fi horror movies, this episode explores why The Thing remains one of the most celebrated films in horror history.

In this episode of Half Hour of Horror, the horror film podcast from Love Horror, we revisit Misery (1990), the unforgettable psychological horror film adapted from Stephen King's bestselling novel. Directed by Rob Reiner and starring Kathy Bates in her Oscar-winning role as the terrifying Annie Wilkes, Misery tells the story of a novelist held captive by his "number one fan".

The frights you forgot - revisited in half an hour. In this episode of Half Hour of Horror, the horror film podcast from Love Horror, we revisit Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982), the most unusual and controversial entry in the Halloween franchise. Unlike the other films in the series, Halloween III: Season of the Witch famously removed Michael Myers entirely, replacing the masked slasher with a sinister conspiracy involving cursed Halloween masks, ancient witchcraft and corporate evil. The result was a bizarre blend of 80s horror, science fiction and occult terror that baffled audiences on release but has since become a genuine cult horror classic. More than forty years later, we take another look at Halloween III: Season of the Witch to ask whether this strange detour in the Halloween franchise deserves its growing reputation among horror fans.
