    Traumatika interview with Pierre Tsigaridis & Maxime Rancon

    We have another special interview for you this weekend for a very scary chiller called TRAUMATIKA. From director Pierre Tsigaridis who cowrote the film with his collaborator Maxime Rancon, Traumatika takes viewers to the edge with a nightmarish vision of paranormal terror and generational trauma. Mikey's night terrors become reality when his mother begins showing signs of demonic possession. What he's about to experience will haunt him for the rest of his life and claim countless lives across generations. We sat down with Pierre and Maxime to talk about their film's deeply rooted horror influences, including slashers, vengeful ghosts, and the French extremism movement of the early 2000s. The result is a film that is as provocative as it is compelling. And, we should say again, it's very scary. Traumatika opens in theaters as of September 12, so check your local listings and we hope you enjoy this special interview! **Please note, the interview does contain minor spoilers See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    Rabbit Trap Interview with Bryn Chainey

    We have a couple of special bonus interviews for you this weekend on films to check out in your local theater. The first is RABBIT TRAP, a haunting and beautiful film about a musician (Rosy McEwan) and her husband (Dev Patel) who move to a remote house in Wales. When the unconventional music they create disturbs some local, ancient folk magic, they encounter a nameless child (Jade Croot) who comes to them intent on infiltrating their lives. We sat down with writer and director Bryn Chainey to discuss his lyrical, immersive, and captivating film. From the first few moments of our conversation, you can get a sense for how thoughtful and poetic Bryn is as a storyteller. His film is richly textured, hypnotic, often dreadful, and disarmingly moving. Featuring strong performances, a potent script, and a lush sound design that tells a story within itself, Rabbit Trap is an exciting feature film debut that we highly encourage you to seek out. We'll hope you'll check it out, in theaters as of September 12, and we hope you enjoy our conversation!

    If you listened to our episode yesterday about Total Recall, you also heard an exciting announcement about our latest adventure. Starting in October, we're collaborating with Troubadour Booksellers to present our very first book club: FoGadour. Once a month, you're invited to the Charlotte, NC area to visit Troubadour Booksellers for a discussion with fellow friends and FoGgers about that month's book. Our lineup begins with Witchcraft for Wayward Girls by Grady Hendrix, followed by Jesus and John Wayne by Kristen Kobe du Mez for November, Charles Dickens' immortal classic A Christmas Carol in December, and we'll kick off the new year with David Gushee's book Changing Our Minds. If you're local (or driving distance) from the Charlotte area, we'd love to see you in person. But stay tuned here as well for ways you can join us in a broader internet community as we read and discuss books together.

    Total Recall (1990)

    We get our butts to Mars this week for a conversation about an Arnold Schwarzenegger 90s sci-fi classic. Based on a story by Philip K. Dick, TOTAL RECALL was directed by Paul Verhoeven and features intense visual effects, a complex plotline, and some surprisingly rich thematic concerns. It's also full of bullet-riddled action set pieces and a lot of wry humor. We're joined this week by Scott Tynes Miller, proprietor of Troubadour Booksellers in Charlotte, NC to discuss the ways memory and reality are intertwined and how they can be manipulated by counterfeits we sometimes willingly embrace. Also featured on this episode is an upcoming announcement about an official Fear of God Book Club starting next month, partnered with Troubadour Booksellers, that we're very excited to tell you about. It's a hearty and thoughtful episode this week and we really hope you enjoy it! 7:26 - FoGadour Book Club (partnered with Troubadour Booksellers) 25:55 - TOTAL RECALL See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    28 Years Later

    As we head closer to the 2025 spooky season, we're offering a grab bag of assorted films for you, continuing this week with 28 YEARS LATER, the long-deferred sequel to the groundbreaking thriller 28 Days Later from 2002. The creative team of Danny Boyle and Alex Garland return to the world of the infected to offer up a thoughtful and disarmingly poignant story about the survivors of the viral infection who not only struggle to sustain life under the constant threat of attack but also must face the harsh realities of life beyond merely the trappings of the apocalypse. Nathan is joined this week by Kate Micham, his sister and new friend to the show, to dive into this film's terrors and wonders, reminding us all to remember that we must die and to remember that we must love. Also featuring a Patron-only "Whatcha" segment, it's a sensitive and heartfelt conversation that we really hope you enjoy!

    The Gorge

    We have a special episode for you this week discussing the latest entry in the filmography of Scott Derrickson: THE GORGE. Starring Anya Taylor-Joy and Miles Teller, The Gorge tells the story of an unexpected bond that forms between two soldiers who are each posted on opposite ends of a wide, cavernous opening that holds untold horrors in its depths. The film garnered mixed reviews -- even among our panel, which includes Gory Gamer Matt Murray, friend of the show Nicole Amato, and new guest, Will Frank -- but led to a vibrant, thoughtful, and often very funny conversation. This conversation also features a look back at this year's GenCon, which featured some exciting new and upcoming board games, as well as a new kickstarter for Camp Grizzly, a refreshed edition of a once rare and highly valued survival horror game. All this and more this week for a lively discussion that we really hope you enjoy. 7:45 - Two Questions with Will Frank of Trick or Treat Studios (including their latest kickstarter campaign, CAMP GRIZZLY) 35:08 - Whatcha (GenCon Edition) 57:09 - THE GORGE See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    Sleepy Hollow (1999)

    As impossible as it is to believe, this week's episode marks our 9th Anniversary here at The Fear of God Podcast. For nearly every week, for nearly a decade now, we've been trying to bring you the most thoughtfully-infused and absurdity-laced horror commentary anywhere. This week is no different. To commemorate this occasion, we're bringing along longstanding friend of the show Vera Goudie to discuss Tim Burton's film SLEEPY HOLLOW, an adaptation of the iconic American short story by Washington Irving. Through the conversation, we dive into both the original text and Burton's film, as well as some unexpected but welcome references to the Walt Disney adaptation of the story. And although we're not quite sure Burton's film holds up the way we'd have hoped it would, this conversation is bursting with laughter and joy as we discuss it. We have an utter blast on this episode, which also features a Patron-only segment of specially tailored games for our anniversary. Thank you to all of you who have listened to us all these years (and hopefully for many more to come) and we hope you enjoy this week's special episode! 1:10 - Introductions and Bits of Business Patron Only Segment: Fear of God Anniversary Games 12:22 - SLEEPY HOLLOW See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    Ginger Snaps

    It's time to curl up by the campfire for another Ghoul Scouts edition of The Fear of God! This week, Vera and Jess are joined by two favorite FoGers, Jocee Worley and Jackson Harper for an examination of a Canadian werewolf classic (that Jackson has campaigned to cover for years)... GINGER SNAPS. Ginger Snaps tells the story of two outcast sisters, Brigitte and Ginger. When Ginger is attacked by a mysterious creature and begins to transform, Brigitte must find a way to cure her sister from the ancient curse of the werewolf. Richly layering in themes of sisterhood and a remarkably insightful approach to the subject of puberty, Ginger Snaps has been largely hailed as one of the best Canadian horror films and one of the most compelling werewolf films ever made. We're so excited to have the Ghoul Scouts take over the pod again, complete with merit badges and campfire reflections! Also featuring a Patron-only segment with a game that'll have you guessing what it's all a-boot, this is a fun and thoughtful conversation that we really hope you enjoy!
