The Severin Films Podcast

Our 20th Anniversary celebration continues as David and Andrew recap the special guests, big announcements and heat-induced hallucinations from the celluloid lovefest that was Super-Shock '26. Then Indonesia's Master Of Horror Joko Anwar himself drops in to discuss our 4-disc collection THE SACRED & THE CURSED, featuring four of his classic films, director-approved masters and 10+ hours of Special Features. PLUS an interview with filmmaker Joko Anwar on set of his new film SATAN'S SLAVES 3! Next it's onto the North American Disc Premiere of Emily Blichfeldt's jaw-dropping/ass-kicking THE UGLY STEPSISTER, the Oscar-nominated body-horror fairy tale that should be considered required viewing. Finally, the lads undress 3 discs worth of goodies on our North American UHD Premiere of Just Jaeckin's GWENDOLINE that may or may not include adolescent fantasies of Tawny Kitaen. The first duty of Severin Love is to listen!

An epic Severin Summer Sale warrants an equally epic podcast, and David, Andrew, Amy & Zach dive in and break down our 10 big titles, 4 unprecedented UHD upgrades, a plethora of outstanding new Special Features and some truly inspired new merch, too.
