Who Goes There Podcast

It's time we here at WGT tackled another King Pick. This time Lord Hans has decreed we watch and discuss the 2014 horror/comedy Giallo spoof, THE EDITOR. The film is courtesy of those wacky and wild haomies from the North (meaning Canada), Astron-6. "Don't even try to move my clear, you're completely paralyzed. You might remember my friend, the Brazilian Wandering spider. He's very aggressive, highly poisonous. Not even your handsome boyfriend, Arturo, can save you now."

This week WGT revisits 1991's THE PEOPLE UNDER THE STAIRS. For our much appreciated Patreon subscribers, its a double dose of Wes Craven as they also get an exclusive episode of the bonkers 1989 slasher, SHOCKER. You can become a WGT Patreon member at www.patreon.com/whogoestherepodcast, or click the hyperlink further down the page. The People Under the Stairs was previously discussed in the show's first year by Jorge and former cohosts/co-founders Matt and Chris, wayyyyyy back in 2014. This marks the first time WGT has revisited the same film in it's 10 year history. This is also Jacob's first watch of the film, which is insane. "Every generation more insane than the one before it. They got their fingers into real estate, started making a lot of money taking over people's homes. The more money they got, the greedier they got. The greedier they got, the crazier they got. All sorts of rumors about what's going on in that place. Never proved it because the police never took it serious. But believe me, when I was a kid, none of us ever walked past that house."

Look, like any year, 2024 has already had its fair share of traaaaash horror genre offerings. Night Swim and Imaginary immediately come to mind. No reason to bury the lead here, TAROT is another one. So why review it at all then you might ask? Because it's fun goddamnit. We're doing the work so you don't have to. "I read your cards. It's over. In readings, Death can mean the end of something or the start of something new. But in your case, it just means death."

How ya been? We're back with a review of another 2024 horror entry, INFESTED. Aka 'Vermines' in it's native France.  People are so repelled by spiders they've got their own sub-genre: 1990's Arachnophobia (see episode 219 of WGT for our review), 2002's Eight Legged Freaks, 1977's Kingdom of the Spiders (starring motherfucking William Shatner), 1958's Earth vs. the Spider (an MST3K classic), 2024's Madame Webb (truly horrifying), and many more. So how does this one stack up against the rest? Listen and find out. INFESTED is currently available to stream on Shudder.  Incidentally, it's the debut feature of director Sebastien Vanicek, reportedly tapped to helm the next film in the Evil Dead franchise.  "The Spider will eat you alive! Bullets...won't kill it! Flames...can't burn it! Nothing...can stop it! 50 tons of creeping black horror! It Must Eat You to Live!" It's the Who Goes There Podcast Episode 414!

Welcome back! This episode is a double feature review of two 2024 genre offerings: blasphemous horror prequel The First Omen, and indie creature feature Arcadian. The First Omen is currently available on Hulu for those who haven't seen it. "Belief is power. How do you control people who no longer belove in your stories of fire and brimstone? You create something to fear. I'm sorry this is happening to you, my child. But nothing will change if you decide to leave. They will be coming for you."

This episode King Hans, benevolent lord of our Patreon, has decreed we discuss BLOODY MUSCLE BODY BUILDER IN HELL, aka “Japanese Evil Dead.”  Originally filmed in 1995, this super low budget J horror eventually made it to DVD and theaters in Japan in 2014 before international release in 2017. It’s picked up quite a bit of steam in the years since as a cult classic. It’s currently available to stream on Shudder. “We did as we were told and hacked him to pieces, didn’t we?! You think you can just run away? I told you you’re not going anywhere. I’m not gonna let that ugly bitch have you!” It’s the Who Goes There Podcast Episode 412!

Late Night With the Devil had great reception and strong word of mouth on the festival circuit late last year, so naturally all three of us were looking forward to it's eventual release to a broader audience. Well, the special day has come and gone and now it's finally time for us to share our thoughts about this indie horror which incorporates found footage and mockumentary elements. Shoutout to mastermind Cal Gee for the original art as always. This time, the dude decided to take the controversial AI artwork from the film and draw it with his HUMAN HANDS. "Welcome back. Ladies and gentlemen, before we continue, I’d like to apologize to anyone who may have been upset or offended by what you saw before the break. It’s not every day that you see a demonic possession on live television." It's the Who Goes There Podcast Episode 411! Join our Patreon if you enjoy the show!

As we continue getting into some new 2024 horror releases, we take a drastic swing from the indie horror of Stop Motion in our previous episode, to the big studio fuckery of IMAGINARY. It's Blumhouse, it's PG-13, and it's directed by the same individual who directed modern classics (SIKE) like Blumhouse's Truth or Dare and Blumhouse's Fantasty Island. GODDAMN. Needless to say, we had fun talking about this one. "Every culture has a name for it, entities that tether to the young. The Spanish call it "El Cuco". The Trinidadians, the "Jumbie". We call them imaginary friends." It's the Who Goes There Podcast Episode 410! Join our Patreon if you enjoy the show!

It's finally time we here at WGT get into a slate of some new 2024 genre offerings. First up, STOPMOTION, the debut feature length film from director Robert Morgan, who's got a bunch of fantastic short films you should probably check out. He's also the guy responsible for the D is for Deloused segment of 2014's 'ABC's of Death' horror anthology. We invite you to join our Patreon subscribers if you enjoy the show!

Welcome back haomies! One more trip to the 90's before we get it going with some 2024 horror releases. This episode we get into the chamber piece horrors of 1997's CUBE. The film is fairly influential and has developed a niche cult following over time. Jorge and Jacob also discuss Cube 2, which is fucking insane. Both are currently available on Prime for those wanting a re-watch or watching for the first time. "It's all the same machine, right? The Pentagon, multinational corporations, the police. If you do one little job, you build a widget in Saskatoon, and the next thing you know, it's two miles under the desert, the essential component of a death machine. I was right! All along, my whole life, I knew it! I told you! Nobody's ever going to call me paranoid again! We've gotta get out of here and blow the lid off this thing!"

Greetings! We’ve got a couple more visits to the late 90’s before getting into some current 2024 horror releases.  DISTURBING BEHAVIOR is the raw essence of 1998 distilled into pure, shameless, trash. Katie Holmes, horny/homicidal teens, an incoherent mind control premise, stock thematic elements about the dangers of conformity, and James Marsden looking like a full grown man in his early 30’s portraying a high school student. Join us as we discuss this important milestone in cinematic history.  "It's a class system here at CB High, Stevie Boy. Check it out...Those three guys are Cradle Bay's answer to Manson, McVeigh and OJ. Music of choice: the hum of perfection, the buzz of ambition. Drug of choice: life, the pursuit of clean living at the expense of all who sniffle at the hem of their gowns. The you've got kids like me and UV here, those who like their metal heavy, their Marlboro's light. Music of choice...Harvester of Sorrow, Language of the Mad. Drug of choice: what have you got? That's it. Lesson over. Class dismembered. Welcome to Cradle Bay High, Stevie Boy. Welcome to my nightmare." It's The Who Goes There Podcast Episode 407!

It's Cronenberg time. A bit of a spiritual successor to Videodrome, 1999's eXistenZ sees Papa Cronenberg fucking with gaming and virtual reality in his characteristically cerebral, absurd, and physically repellent way. eXistenZ joins Dark City and The Matrix as late 90's, pre-millenium forays into the notion of simulated reality and this is definitely the most surreal of the bunch, and possibly the most prophetic. This is Jorge's first viewing in a couple decades and Jacob's first ever. Enjoy and long live the new flesh! "You're stuck now, aren't you? You want to go back  because there's nothing happening here. We're safe. It's boring. It's worse than that. I'm not sure... I'm not sure here, where we are, is real at all. This feels like a game to me. And you, you're beginning to feel a bit like a game character."

Greetings idiots! We've got a few episodes coming up in rapid succession the next couple weeks- and it's a damn weird slate.

It's got French knights, indigenous warriors, vatican spys, harlots, political intrigue, martial arts, sword fights, secret societies, and a big damn monster that rips people apart.   "Wolves howl.

Picture this if you will, it's January 1999. Britney Spears' debut album is all over the place, bands like Sugar Ray and Limp Bizkit saturate alternative radio, Michael Bay's Armageddon was the biggest movie last Summer, and Bill Clinton "did not have sexual relations with that woman." SIKE! Just as we begin our spiral into the imminent Y2K apocalypse, Universal Pictures decides to dump an R-Rated $75 million scifi-horror adaptation of a dope Dark Horse comic book in theaters. This episode, King Hans, the benevolent, bearded lord of our Patreon has decreed we review 1999's VIRUS, starring the likes of Jamie Lee Curtis, Billy Baldwin, and motherfucking Donald Sutherland with a strong contender for the most absurd Irish accent in cinema history.
