The Fear of God: A Horror Movie Podcast

Faith and the Horror genre may seem to be opposites, but every week Reed and Nathan put them in dialogue together. Join us for conversations about the things that haunt us and the things that heal us, explorations at the intersection between faith and fear, where we examine what scares us, in order to find what saves us.

    Maxxxine

    We close a loop from last year this week by covering the concluding chapter in Ti West's provocative horror trilogy that started with X and Pearl: MAXXXINE. We invite back friend of the show JR Forasteros to help us unpack our decisively uneven feelings about a trilogy which started strong, proceeded to get even better, and then possibly completely fumbled the ending. Also featuring a Patron-only segment where we play Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon -- with ourselves! -- this is a laugh-filled and fun conversation that we really hope you enjoy.

    Cuckoo

    Keeping an accidental trend of looking back at some of the most unconventional horror films of 2024, we offer you a conversation about Tilman Singer's CUCKOO. We're joined this week by two friends from Van Ryder Games, AJ Porfirio and Julie Ahern, to discuss this strange and occasionally befuddling examination of exploration of fractured relationships and twisted scientific exploitation. While opinions on the film were decidedly mixed, the conversation is lively and thoughtful as we unpack the myriad of themes we think this film is attempting to explore. Also featuring some fun conversation about the Van Ryder Games tabletop sensation Final Girl, this is a hearty but fun conversation that we really hope you enjoy. 4:58 - Getting to know Julie Ahern 18:40 - Updates on Final Girl 39:10 - CUCKOO See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    The Vourdalak

    Easily one of the most unconventional films of last year was the French throwback to folk horror tales of the 1970s: THE VOURDALAK. Set in the 18th century, it follows a Marquis who becomes displaced after being robbed and finds his way to the shelter of a strange family. To say too much more would be to rob this unique, surprising, and disarmingly potent film of its fun -- and its terror. It features a vintage aesthetic, outstanding performances, and a monster that will absolutely not be what you're expecting. It also features some profound observations about the insidious nature of power pursuits, the creeping dread of control that pretends to be love, and the necessity of remembering our capacity to change. It's also a fun, gory chiller perfect for a dark and stormy night. We're joined by author and friend of the show Sarah Welch-Larson for a lively and thoughtful conversation that we really hope you enjoy.

    Here We Are. Now What? A Discussion with Dr. David Gushee

    For the Christian, and the formerly so; for the hopeful and the heartbroken; for the grieving and the teeth-gritted; for the beloved and the bedraggled; for the pissed off and the prayerful... Submitted humbly is a conversation between Nathan Rouse and Dr. David Gushee -- Christian ethicist, professor, pastor, and friend. It examines the sensibilities of the last few months, the efforts that were taken to chart a different course, and the importance of faith and hope and action as we look to what's next. If you find yourself confused, distressed, lamenting, or weary in heart, this discussion is for you. If you find yourself apathetic, curious, detached, or adrift, this discussion is for you. And if you find yourself wishing that a kindred spirit would hold out a hand and sit with you while we gather the strength to move forward, this discussion is most definitely for you. We hope it encourages you. Amen. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    400: The 10 Greatest Horror Films of All Time

    Let us begin by saying thank you to our listeners. This week we published our 400th episode! We can hardly believe it. From nearly 9 years ago when the idea of discussions about faith and fear was little more than a fun thought experiment, to sitting now at 400 episodes (and more than that when we count bonuses and interviews), we're so grateful for the little community we've grown together. So, to celebrate 400 episodes, we solicited lists from more than 40 friends and listeners of what they considered the greatest horror films of all time. Then, we gathered together a group of long-standing FoGgers (Vera Goudie, Andrew Nelson, Jackson Harper, Jocee Worley, Dave Courtney, and Matt Murray) to discuss, debate, and finalize what among those were the 10 Greatest Horror Films of All Time. Along the way, we discuss what qualities make a horror film great, whether it matters if a film is broadly popular or higher in intensity, and much more. It's a hearty and thoughtful conversation about why we love horror movies, their value to our lives, and -- most especially -- which ones are the best of the bunch. Thank you SO much for listening to us over the years and supporting us for more than 400 episodes examining what scares us in order to find what saves us. As always, the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom, but not the end of the conversation. In that spirit, we encourage you to fear nothing else and be on your way rejoicing. Thank you again. 6:29 - How we collected the nominees 8:14 - The Wild Card Picks 20:54 - What makes a horror film great? 31:06 - Number 10 38:15 - Numbers 6 - 9 55:28 - How much does a horror film's intensity matter? 1:04:06 - Numbers 3 - 5 1:19:44 - Popularity vs Quality 1:26:26 - The Top 2 Films See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    In a Violent Nature

    Last year was an eclectic assortment of styles, subgenres, and themes in the horror genre but perhaps one of the most stylistically unconventional was a film called IN A VIOLENT NATURE. On its narrative surface, In a Violent Nature is a pretty standard slasher. But the very big distinction is that nearly all of the film is shown from the vantage point of the steadily-stalking killer as he encroaches upon his prey. It's extremely gory, contains no musical score, and is constructed with several lengthy scenes of natural, predatory patience. It didn't resonate with everyone (even on our episode) but those who loved it find it haunting, meditative, and provocatively thoughtful. Those who didn't find it tedious, puzzling, and not at all fun. What IS fun however, is our conversation. We invite back friend of the show Leland Merritt to help us unpack all of the things this film has on its mind and the ways it can reflect our own meditations on the way we engage with and in habitat the often-dangerous environment and landscape around us. We hope you enjoy it! See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    Red Rooms

    We continue our look back at some of the most compelling horror films of 2024 with an unconventional enigma. RED ROOMS took the festival circuit by storm with its haunting, unnerving examination of obsession, technology, and commodified violence. It tells the story of the trial of Ludovic Chevalier, on trial for the hideous murders of three teenage girls, whose deaths were filmed and sold on the dark web. While some enthusiastic fans believe he is innocent, Kelly-Anne (Juliette Gariepy) holds a strange and extreme fascination with the case and will stop at nothing to obtain the elusive footage of the third victim. We are joined by friend of the show, writer-director Michael Felker to unpack the myriad of complex interpretations of this film and the ways it shines an uncomfortable light on our tendencies to stare endlessly at the ugliness we do to one another. Also featuring a special FoG Your Consideration where we share our brief thoughts on Strange Darling, I Saw the TV Glow, Immaculate, and The First Omen, this is a thoughtful and fun conversation that we really hope you enjoy!

    Longlegs

    We continue our look back at some of the most interesting horror films of 2024 by examining a haunting, dread-soaked thriller from Oz Perkins, LONGLEGS. Starring Maika Monroe and Nicolas Cage (in a completely unhinged performance), Longlegs tells the story of an FBI agent in the mid-90s investigating a series of murders that all appear to be connected to someone who wasn't even there when they happened. We're joined by friends of the show Matt Ruff and Blake Collier, as well as first-time guest Scott Tynes-Miller to discuss the differing experiences with this film, its myriad of theological and sociological interests, and our varied interpretations of its haunting ending. Also featuring a Patron-only "Whatcha" segment, this is a hearty and thoughtful conversation that we really hope you enjoy.
