Cadaver Dogs Cadaver Dogs Podcast

Ah, the American Dream: a suburban home with a white picket fence, green grass, and the perfect nuclear family. Until… ding dong! It’s the boogeyman! Filmmaker Emily Bennett (Alone With You) joins David and Devin to discuss false utopias, the repercussions of repression, and why you should always face your fears.
The Dogs take on Freddy Kreuger once again in the original A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET, written and directed by Wes Craven. And then tackle M. Night Shyamalan’s classic THE VILLAGE - with a twist (obviously).

This month, we’re joined by Joseph Hernandez, actor and festival programmer at Brooklyn Horror Film Festival and South By Southwest, to discuss the blurry lines between familial obligation and unhealthy codependent relationships.
Do you like vampires? We do. But this isn’t your old school Hollywood Dracula, as Thomas’ nosferatitus is treated as a serious illness and strain on his siblings who now must murder on his behalf, in Jonathan Cuartas’ MY HEART CAN’T BEAT UNLESS YOU TELL IT TO (2020). Meanwhile, some hundred years prior and in the middle of the Spanish flu epidemic of World War I, Pearl finds herself trapped on her family farm and longing to be a star. But it's not about what she wants: it's about making the best of what she has. Mia Goth leads the Ti West-directed PEARL (2022).
Are these relationships abuse? Is there hope for our protagonists to break free? When is it okay to let a family member go? What’s with Joe’s Jigsaw impression? Find out in the latest Cadaver Dogs ep!

Not for the ”feeble-minded!” This month, David and Devin are joined by writer/film critic Tori Potenza to talk about basically everything that’s horrible in America: systemic racism and white privilege.
“Should we eugenics?” is a question posed when analyzing ISLAND OF LOST SOULS (1932), adapted from an H.G. Wells classic and notoriously banned when the Hays Code took effect. We hope for a more cheery analysis with the 2019 film US, written and directed by Jordan Peele, but find more of the same old systemic racism bullsh**.
Remember when everything sucked but now it’s better? LOL
(Also please, don’t eugenics.)

It’s a New Year, and filmmaker Chelsea Lupkin joins David and Devin, utilizing 90s pop psychology to answer the ultimate question: Is humanity evil?
If underwater frights and omnipotent esoteric aliens are your cup of tea, you’ll be pleased to hear our first film is Barry Levinson’s sci-fi thriller SPHERE (1998), adapted from a book by Michael Crichton. Then we plunge into the deep workings of the mind of a schizophrenic serial killer in Tarsem Singh’s visual beauty THE CELL (2000).
Sam Jackson! Vincent D’Onofrio! Dustin Hoffman! Jennifer Lopez! Sharon Stone! Vince Vaughn! Liev Schreiber! This is truly our most star-studded episode to date. Happy 2024, mutts!

Making a list, checking it twice, gonna find out who’s just plain naughty… holiday horror time is here! David and Devin are back for another X-mas special - joined by Brucker Nourse of the Autopsy of a Horror Movie podcast. The trio cover hidden Canadian gem DEAD END (2003) and Michael Dougherty’s KRAMPUS (2015). These films hit just about every fear you have about getting together with your family this holiday season - but with a dash of evil elves, a sprinkle of petty nazis, and way too much chocolate pie. Gather round as we regale the folk lore of the Lady in White and the history of Krampus. Ho ho ho!
