The Blind Rage podcast: Horror Movie Commentaries

brandon Ford

The Blind Rage Podcast brings a queer perspective to horror movie commentaries, pairing each film with candid opinions, behind the scenes trivia, personal anecdotes, unexpected tangents, and a lot of laughter. The movie selection goes well beyond the usual titles, making room for obscure slashers, forgotten video store discoveries, independent horror, cult favorites, and movies most other shows wouldn’t think to cover. Sometimes we love what we’re watching. Sometimes we can’t believe someone actually made it. Either way, we watch the whole damn thing with you.

    American Mary (2012)

    Self improvement gets surgical fast, and The Blind Rage Podcast scrubs in for AMERICAN MARY (2012). Katharine Isabelle is Mary Mason, a cash strapped med student who learns that tuition can be paid in blood money and back room procedures, especially when a strip club connection opens the door to clients with very specific requests. Soon the gigs stop looking like med school labs and start looking like underground art projects, from human doll transformations to extreme body modification performed with icy focus and zero bedside charm. The film mixes grime, pitch black humor, and queasy intimacy, daring you to admire the craftsmanship while questioning your life choices.

    My Friend Dahmer (2017)

    If you thought your high school years were awkward, try surviving puberty with dead animals in your shed and a growing interest in human anatomy…and not in the academic sense. In MY FRIEND DAHMER (2017), we get a front-row seat to Jeffrey Dahmer’s teenage years—before the headlines, before the horror, before the…collection. Ross Lynch ditches his Disney roots to play a lonely weirdo perfecting the art of fitting in, while inching ever closer to becoming America’s most infamous dinner host. The Blind Rage Podcast sinks its teeth into this slow-burn biographical creepfest that’ll make you reconsider every quiet kid in the back of your yearbook. Is it a horror movie? A coming-of-age story? A very special health class warning? Yes.

    Joy Ride 3: Road Kill (2014)

    Route 17 becomes a roadside meat grinder as The Blind Rage Podcast barrels into JOY RIDE 3: ROAD KILL (2014), where a racing crew headed for the Road Rally 1000 learns that Rusty Nail has very firm opinions about highway etiquette. After the racers leave his truck jackknifed and keep moving, Rusty uses dashcam footage to identify them. Slaughter Alley soon becomes his personal automotive torture shop, complete with mangled machinery and industrial-strength gore. Ken Kirzinger gives the killer the build of a human tow truck, while director Declan O’Brien lets every grinding gear sound like another insurance claim being permanently denied.

    Joy Ride 2: Dead Ahead (2008)

    The highway turns hostile when The Blind Rage Podcast cranks up JOY RIDE 2: DEAD AHEAD (2008), unleashing Rusty Nail on a group of travelers who make the mistake of taking what isn't theirs. A stolen muscle car, a desert shortcut, and a CB radio are all it takes to ignite another brutal stretch of asphalt warfare. This direct to video sequel leans hard into nastiness, stretching the chase across empty roads, dusty compounds, and claustrophobic motel rooms where the walls feel paper thin and the engine never stops rumbling.

    Joy Ride (2001)

    A late night prank over a CB radio detonates fast once The Blind Rage Podcast barrels into JOY RIDE (2001), where a gravel voiced stranger named Rusty Nail decides that payback belongs on the open road. Paul Walker, Steve Zahn, and Leelee Sobieski spend the film boxed in by endless highways, flickering motel signs, and the looming grill of a truck that refuses to fall back. What starts as bored mischief mutates into a white knuckle chase powered by diesel fumes, sweat, and that voice crackling through the speakers like it owns the night.

    American Psycho (2000)

    Patrick Bateman’s meticulously cruel charm takes center stage in AMERICAN PSYCHO (2000) and The Blind Rage Podcast is here to slice through the Wall Street madness with sharp wit and biting humor. We dissect the madness of his pristine apartment, obsession with appearances, and the absurdity of yuppie culture with the kind of sarcastic flair only true horror fans can appreciate. Tune in for a conversation that’s as darkly clever as Bateman’s own diary, and catch every pointed observation and sly joke that keeps the horror just as entertaining as the satire.

    The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning (2006)

    Highway dust, broken promises, and a stolen badge set the stage as The Blind Rage Podcast rips into THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE: THE BEGINNING (2006), the prequel that decides subtlety is for other franchises. Set against the final days of the Vietnam draft, a group of young friends heads out on one last carefree trip and instead collides with the Hewitt family at their most feral. When a deranged drifter murders the local sheriff and slips into his uniform like it is just another piece of skin, the road to freedom turns into a sadistic masquerade of authority, brutality, and raw meat. This is Leatherface before the legend calcified, shaped by slaughterhouse scraps and a family that treats torture like a bonding exercise. We dig into the grime, the performances, the outrageous escalation, and how this chapter doubles down on cruelty while trying to carve its own bloody identity.

    The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003)

    Sunlight blasts through a grimy Texas window as The Blind Rage Podcast squares up with THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE (2003), the moment the 2000s decided every dusty nightmare needed a factory reset. The '70s felt dangerous because it looked like it might fall apart on camera. This one feels assembled, tightened, stress tested. The grime is measured. The violence is amplified. The silence between screams feels engineered for surround sound. It is definitely not the last time the aughts would dig up a classic and repackage it with heavier boots and sharper edges. It is the opening bell for a decade that mistook louder for harsher and harsher for better. We talk about remake fatigue before it even had a name, about how a franchise built on raw nerve became a blueprint for the assembly line. THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE is less a singular shock and more a signpost pointing toward the wave that followed. Platinum Dunes fingerprints all over the genre. A shift in tone. A shift in texture. A shift that left some of us standing there, arms crossed, wondering when horror stopped feeling unpredictable and started feeling focus tested.
