    Black Swan (2010) - "The Feminine Urge to Go Completely Insane" (ft. The Revisionist’s Almanac)

    In this episode of Horror Hour with the Hanna's, we pirouette into the haunting world of Black Swan (2010), Darren Aronofsky’s psychological horror masterpiece. With Natalie Portman’s Oscar-winning performance as a ballerina spiraling into obsession, this film blends beauty, madness, and body horror in a way that still lingers in audiences’ minds. We break down the film’s themes of artistic perfection, duality, and psychological decay, exploring how Aronofsky crafts a nightmarish descent into madness. Is Black Swan a horror film in disguise or a true genre-bending thriller? And how does its portrayal of ambition and self-destruction still resonate today? This week we are joined by Andrew from "The Revisionist Almanac".

    The Last Voyage of the Demeter (2023) - "Boats 'N Bros"

    Vampire January Part 5: The Final Bite In this episode of Horror Hour with the Hanna's, we climb aboard The Last Voyage of the Demeter (2023) and dissect the highs and lows of this ambitious horror film. Directed by André Øvredal, the movie expands on Bram Stoker’s infamous chapter, chronicling the doomed crew of the Demeter as they transport Dracula across the sea. The film boasts a haunting setting but does its slow pace and predictable storytelling drag it down? We examine whether this high-seas horror makes the most of its atmospheric premise or if it’s more bark than bite. Tune in as we break down the scares, the storytelling, and whether The Last Voyage of the Demeter adds anything new to the long legacy of Dracula adaptations—or if it just treads water.
