Overview Another silent film for our public domain Side Dish. This one is a bit creature and a bit demon and mythological. Telling the story of how the golem came to be in the Jewish religion. And this creature does some horrific things – like sweep the floor and get the groceries. An interesting aspect […]
The post The Golem: How He Came Into the World appeared first on Horror Lasagna.
Overview It would be a horrible experience to be attacked in your own home. To fear that you, your wife, and your unborn child, are all in danger. Threatened in the sanctity of your own abode. How would you react? What would you do? If you’re lucky, you get a second chance. A relative passes […]
The post Season 05 Episode 14 – The Unwelcome appeared first on Horror Lasagna.
Overview The Most Dangerous Game has had quite a bit of influence in the horror world, and today we view it to add to our growing classic films. There’s a monster, but it’s not some scary beast or supernatural being. It may seem cliche now, but was a unique concept in media at the time. […]
The post Side Dish 06 – The Greatest Game appeared first on Horror Lasagna.
Overview With a name like housewife, you’d think this is a mild movie. A horror movie? Nah. Well, hang tight, buttercup, we’re about to go off the rails. Things start off not too bad – well, except for the disturbing sex. Then they devolve. And then there are the flashbacks, or dreams, or memories, or […]
The post Season 05 Episode 13 – Housewife appeared first on Horror Lasagna.
Overview No, this isn’t one of our public domain side dish – though it kinda looks like it. This is another movie by the esteemed Todd Browning from Freaks. Which one is better? Guess it depends. Are they both good? Guess it depends. There are some great effects going on in this one. They really […]
The post Season 05 Episode 12 – Devil Doll appeared first on Horror Lasagna.
Overview In our 5th side dish, we look at a newer public domain movie – Carnival of Souls. Inspired by a Twilight Zone episode (which I’m sure you’ll agree is spot on), this movie is a “what is real” exploration. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnival_of_Souls https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0055830 Trailer Watch It https://archive.org/details/CarnivalofSouls YouTube https://youtu.be/AcVzKEFayCw Transcript [00:00:00] Stephen: Carnival...
Overview Welcome to your new house. No, not that one. The mirror image one. Don’t worry, it will all be fine. And why worry? Your dead husband was cheating on you, wasn’t he? Maybe you’re just going crazy. Or maybe you really are being followed by a non-entity. Maybe you should have just stayed dead. […]
The post Season 05 Episode 11 – The Nighthouse appeared first on Horror Lasagna.
Overview We don’t do a lot of sequels on the Horror Lasagna podcast. Sequels tend to not fit the mold for us telling you about the best horror movies you haven’t seen. In our Director Rehash though, we made an exception for Victor Crowley. The Hatchet series is worth the inclusion though. We both loved […]
The post Season 05 Episode 10 – Victor Crowley appeared first on Horror Lasagna.
Overview With all the talk about the new Nosferatu remake, it made sense for the horror dudes to take a look at another classic vampire film – Vampyr. There is a lot to like with this black and white film – even the vampire hater, Rhys, got something out of it. How does it compare […]

Overview Should you ignore those whisperings you hear? You’re just imagining them, right? They don’t mean anything. Are you creative? Do you play guitar? Or paint? If you answered yes to any of the above, we have the house for you! A great family home with an outbuilding that can be used as an art […]
The post Season 05 Episode 09 – The Devil’s Candy appeared first on Horror Lasagna.
Overview We delve back into early horror with The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. In fact, many consider it the first true horror movie. And it’s definitely one to watch. The German expressionism gives it a bizarre look, kind of like if Chuck Jones was crazy when making Road Runner cartoons. Check out the entire episode […]
The post Side Dish 3 – The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari appeared first on Horror Lasagna.
Listen on your favorite podcast app ^ Overview What the heck is going on here? It’s a movie about a loving mother that only wants to take care of her child. Nothing wrong with that? and she’s right to be cautious – her husband is in jail for murdering a child. So why are the […]
The post Season 05 Episode 08 – Motherly appeared first on Horror Lasagna.
Overview The video script discusses the 1922 Swedish silent film ‘Haxan,’ directed by Benjamin Christensen. The film, a documentary-style recreation, explores themes of witchcraft and mental illness and is noted for its impressive production quality and vivid imagery. It was controversial at release due to scenes of torture, nudity, and anti-clericalism, leading to bans in […]
The post Häxan – Side Dish 2 appeared first on Horror L...
Overview This time we’re watching a movie that was direct to streaming on the Shudder channel. Shudder has definitely picked up in recent times from a station that only played the cheesiest movies to now doing their own. How does this movie compare to Christopher Smith’s Triangle? Well, of course, listen to find out. it’s […]
The post Season 05 Episode 07 – The Banishing appeared first on Horror Lasagna.
As many of our long time listeners know, we do a horror-thon every Halloween. We usually have a child or 2 in attendance and sometimes a few others. We pick about 3 or 4 movies we’d like to see for one reason or another and have a go. This year was a great line up: […]
The post 2024 Horror – Thon appeared first on Horror Lasagna.
Welcome to our first side dish – a quick talk about a great public domain horror movie. In fact, this one is the first recognized horror movie – House of the Devil from Georges Méliès. While it’s short – 3 minutes – its fascinating to see this put together and be a horror movie (loosely […]

Overview Time to revisit our childhood. Oh the pleasant memories – biking to friends houses, staying up all night playing games, pissing our pants from the Mr. Dark and the spiders. Ah, yes, lovely childhood. This one has is more personal for Rhys and I because it was one of our childhood scary movies. We […]
The post Season 05 Episode 06 – Something Wicked this Way Comes appeared first on Horror Lasagna.
Overview If you loved Martyrs (and who didn’t) and are looking for another edge of your seat movie – why not look at another one from Laugier. I mean, Martyrs was such a popcorn thrill fest, who wouldn’t want more? Oh, did I forget the sarcasm tags around that first paragraph? SInce we’re revisiting directors, […]
The post Season 05 Episode 05 Incident in a Ghostland appeared first on Horror Lasagna.
Overview The first movie by Gardner we watched – The Battery – is a favorite for many reasons. This movie has many of the same qualities – it feels like a Gardner movie. Our hero likes his life, but his girlfriend doesn’t – so she leaves. From there, Hanks life falls apart. Wouldn’t yours if […]
The post Season 05 Episode 04 – After Midnight appeared first on Horror Lasagna.
Overview We travel to foreign lands today and visit bridges. Why bridges? Well, we have trolls. You see, trolls exist in some countries. In fact, they are hunted and regulated like bears in America. There are various types of trolls – that never showed up in the fairy tales. How do we know this? Well, […]
