Horror Hussies Dana Castillo & Kypria Santiago

This episode the hussies explore the 1934 classic The Black Cat starring Bela Lugosi & Boris Karloff. We get a quiet storm sing-a-long, the unfolding of the Diddy drama, & Dana’s manifestation journey- is she a satanist now?

Have you seen the portrayal of a silent jazz movie?
Ever seen a widow’s peak enter a room before its owner?
Dana can’t get over Boris’ lisp and thought the “fight scene” was caca. And news flash- Kypria still hates dogs.

The girls celebrate Asian American Pacific Islander Month with reviewing a Japanese Horror: The Vampire Doll 1970. From the Director Michio Yamamoto, this haunted tale is the first from a Blood Thirsty Trilogy. Questions raised: Was there animal cruelty involved in this film? Can you bury a loved one back yard?

Dana and Kypria scour the internet for the public’s take on Immaculate and I Know What You Did Last Summer. The new leading lady Sydney Sweeney's performance is loved while Jennifer Love Hewitts not so much. While discovering these two films through current screenings, cable, DVDs, bootleg, and streaming platforms: the verdict is in.

Is it March? Yes. after all, you can celebrate black horror anytime of the year. The girls review Wes Craven’s The People Under The Stairs. Based on an actual crime in LA, this film reveals the horrors in a landlord’s home while touching on the struggles in the black community resulting from gentrification. Kypria talks about Ludacris & outrageous venue alcohol prices. Dana talks weird garden compost rules & is terrified of Goo Goo Dolls frontman’s face John Rzeznik.

Questions raised:
Dear Hollywood, why is horror not Oscar worthy for nomination? Did you own music in the 90s with that famous black & white parental advisory sticker? Do you know what a viper in your bosom is?
