Join us for this week's episode on Carl Dreyer's 1932 film Vampyr. Our first non-Dracula film! We cover the various titles, cuts, and critical receptions the movie has received over the decades. And we even debate the merits of drowning in water versus flour.

Join us as we take a bite out of George Melford's 1931 Dracula.

Happy Halloween children of the night! We thought we'd break our schedule to post our first full episode on All Hallow's Eve. This week we're watching F.W. Murnau's genre defining classic, Nosferatu (1922). We talk about the film, the history behind its making, its relationship to the novel Dracula, and the lawsuit that almost staked the film.Trigger Warnings: discussion of antisemitism, discussion of xenophobia, and brief mention of SAP.S. We had some tech problems with our session this week, so there are some audio issues we'd like to apologize for.
