Flickers Of Fear – Jenny’s Horror Movie Reviews: Gothic (1986)

6 Nov 2021 / Jenny Ashford / Leave a comment

Jenny talks about Ken Russell’s bizarre, hallucinatory retelling of the famed Villa Diodati get-together in 1816 that resulted in Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. It stars Gabriel Byrne as Lord Byron, Julian Sands as Percy Shelley, Natasha Richardson as Mary Shelley, and Timothy Spall as John Polidori. Oh, and it’s batshit insane, so there’s that.

13 O’Clock Movie Retrospectives: The Hunger

13 Aug 2017 / Jenny Ashford / Leave a comment

We already recorded a second movie review for our new 13 O’Clock offshoot! It’s of my very favorite vampire movie from the 1980s, The Hunger, which I also wrote about in depth right here, if you’re interested. Enjoy!

13 O’Clock Episode 34 – An Appreciation of the Giallo

11 Apr 2017 / Jenny Ashford / Leave a comment

A masked, black-gloved killer stalks the streets of Rome, hacking away at underdressed ladies with a flashing, phallic blade. A hapless tourist witnesses one of these murders, but is brushed off by the police, and is forced to try to reveal the killer on her own, before she becomes the next victim.

If this plot sounds familiar, it’s because it’s the most common story arc of the classic Italian thriller/horror genre, the giallo. This distinctive film style has many fascinating aesthetic and narrative flourishes, and is largely responsible for kicking off the American slasher film boom of the 1970s and 1980s. On this episode, Tom and Jenny discuss one of Jenny’s very favorite film styles, giving a history of the genre, a breakdown of the most commonly seen tropes, and opinions about the best giallo films. Sharpen your straight razor and shrug into your black trenchcoat as we take a deep red journey into the lurid, murderous world of the giallo. Bring in the perverts!

13 O’Clock Episode 18 – Creepy Christmas Creatures!

20 Dec 2016 / Jenny Ashford / Leave a comment

It’s the 13 O’Clock Christmas Special Edition! And because you know how we do, we’re focusing on some of the less savory aspects of this most festive of holidays. Most people are familiar with Krampus, the Christmas demon who kidnaps and eats bad little kids, but did you know that there is a whole menagerie of scary creatures and characters from folklore, making Christmas a frightful experience for children around the globe? Trolls, witches, giant cats, murderous butchers, belly slitters, and a host of other decidedly un-jolly old elves prowl the snow-laden Christmas landscape, just waiting to come across a naughty boy or girl that they can capture and gobble up in a delicious hearty stew. Enjoy Tom and Jenny’s seasonal sojourn into the very dark side of Yuletide, and remember, “Child abuse: it’s what Christmas is all about!”
