    150 - Fatal Frame

    To mark the release of documentary The J-Horror Virus on Shudder, Harry and Rory are joined by its directors Sarah Appleton and Jasper Sharp to discuss all things J-Horror and the Fatal Frame / Project Zero film! They look at the origins and legacy of J-Horror, and the impact of Ring and its US remake, plus Dreamcast oddity The Ring: Terror's Realm. Then, it's time to grab a Camera Obscura for an adaptation of a spin-off novel based on the ghost-snapping game series. A Catholic girls school is swept up in strange disapperances and spooky apparitions, with the haunting photograph of one of its students central to the mystery. But did Fatal Frame capture their attention? This podcast contains SPOILERS for Fatal Frame (2014), from 57:30.

    149 - Mortal Kombat: Conquest

    Harry and Rory journey back in time to the late 20th century and test the might of TV series Mortal Kombat: Conquest! This cheap and cheerful kung-fu fantasy show only lasted one season but served as a prequel of sorts to the feature films, following legendary Kombatant Kung Lao (Paolo Montalban) and his plucky companions Siro (Daniel Bernhardt) and Taja (Kristanna Loken) some time in the distant past. The heroic trio must battle sorcerers, warriors, and ninja clans, but can they defend Earthrealm from the forces of Outworld? This podcast contains SPOILERS for Mortal Kombat: Conquest (1998-1999), from 55:46.

    Harry and Rory land on the planet Pandora and brave its Borderlands for Eli Roth's big-screen adaptation of the looter shooter video game franchise! They examine the critical and commercial response to the long-delayed sci-fi action-adventure, before joining a ragtag group of intergalactic misfits caught up in a quest to open up a vault which, legend has it, may contain untold treasures, alien technology or something even greater. But with corporate armies, psychotic bandits, and giant monsters on their tail, can they survive their enemies, let alone each other?

    145 - Neko Atsume House

    Harry and Rory bring all the cats to the yard, as they while away an hour and a half in Neko Atsume House, the live-action adaptation of the popular kitty collecting smartphone game! We talk about the cats we've collected on our phones and in real life, before following struggling writer Sakumoto seeking a cure for his case of writer's block. Finding a rental property in a rural town for a retreat, the pressure to meet his deadlines starts to ease as he warms to the stray cats that gather outside, and it's not long before he's buying toys, taking snaps, and making feline friends. But does Neko Atsume House successfully spin a yarn out of a simple virtual pet app? This podcast contains SPOILERS for Neko Atsume House (2017), from 39:28.
