    ...hit him in the head, right between the eyes.

    This week on Earth Station Boo, we're joined by special guest Jake to revisit George A. Romero's 1968 classic, Night of the Living Dead. Made on a small budget, this film changed horror forever with its raw visuals, practical effects, and intense atmosphere. We discuss the film's black-and-white cinematography and documentary-style approach, as well as its powerful social themes of race, fear, and unrest. We also focus on Duane Jones' groundbreaking performance as Ben and the film's shocking ending, which challenged traditional horror tropes. Join us as we explore why Night of the Living Dead remains one of the most influential horror films of all time.   Subscribe now to Earth Station Boo where we talk all things horror.

    To a new world of gods & monsters

    This week on Earth Station Boo, we travel back to the golden age of horror with a celebration of the Classic Universal Monsters. These legendary films helped shape the horror genre and continue to influence it today. We revisit the gothic dread of Dracula, the tragic horror of Frankenstein, the chilling howls of The Wolf Man, and the eerie depths of The Creature from the Black Lagoon. Each of these iconic monsters left a lasting mark on horror history. During the episode, we break down what makes each monster so memorable. We discuss the makeup magic and groundbreaking special effects that brought them to life. We also explore their legacy through decades of remakes, reboots, and reinterpretations. Were these monsters truly villains, or were they misunderstood figures trapped by fate? We also look at how Bride of Frankenstein and The Invisible Man challenged audience expectations. Most importantly, we ask why these characters still resonate nearly 100 years later. Join us as we share our favorite films, discuss the cultural impact of the original monster mash-ups, and imagine what a modern Universal Monsters universe could look like. Whether you're Team Dracula or ride-or-die for the Gill-Man, this episode is for you.   Subscribe now to Earth Station Boo where we talk all things horror.

    We're going to flaunt our scars

    This week on Earth Station Boo, we explore the dark and devastating world of Things We Lost in the Fire by Mariana Enriquez. This powerful collection of horror short stories blends supernatural terror with the very real horrors of everyday life in Argentina, from political unrest to gendered violence and poverty. We discuss the ways Enriquez uses horror as both social commentary and personal protest. From haunted houses and cursed neighborhoods to women reclaiming their pain through terrifying transformation, these stories refuse to offer comfort and instead leave us haunted by questions. Which stories disturbed us the most? How does Enriquez blur the line between the horrific and the human? And how does her work stand out in modern horror literature? Whether you're a fan of literary horror or discovering Enriquez for the first time, this episode is a deep dive into fear, feminism, and fire.

    Let the festivities begin

    This week on Earth Station Boo, we step into the blinding daylight and floral terror of A24's modern folk horror masterpiece, Midsommar. Directed by Ari Aster, this film blends grief, emotional manipulation, and cult psychology into one of the most unique and disturbing horror experiences of the last decade. We explore Dani's heartbreaking journey through trauma and codependency, and how her transformation challenges the idea of a traditional final girl. From chilling rituals to unsettling symbolism, we break down the way the film uses visual storytelling and constant daylight to create unease. We also discuss Midsommar as a horror breakup movie, the role of isolation and foreignness, and whether the Hårga are terrifying villains or disturbingly honest reflections of human need. Whether you love it, hate it, or still don't know what to feel, join us as we try to unravel the beautiful horror of Midsommar. Subscribe now to Earth Station Boo where we talk all things horror.

    What a Monstrous idea Father.

    This week on Earth Station Boo, we're lighting a candle for one of the most haunting and thought-provoking horror series in recent years: Midnight Mass by Mike Flanagan. With its blend of religious horror, emotional monologues, and devastating character arcs, this limited series left a lasting impression on fans and critics alike. We dig into the show's exploration of faith, grief, addiction, and redemption, and how Flanagan turns small-town horror into something cosmic and deeply personal. From Riley's tragic journey to Erin's unforgettable final words, we unpack what made Midnight Mass such a powerful experience. We also discuss Hamish Linklater's incredible performance as Father Paul, the chilling reinterpretation of vampirism as biblical miracle, and whether this show represents the best of Flanagan's horror universe. Whether you're a longtime Flanaverse fan or just visiting Crockett Island for the first time, this is one sermon you don't want to miss.
