It must be a full moon because a brand new episode of The Grave Plot Podcast has suddenly sprung up, and it's an impromptu Week of the Werewolf!
First up though, we've got Real World Horror about a chilling murder that feels more like something out of a mafia movie than a true occurrence. In Horror Business, we discuss the new Evil Dead Rise plot details and casting news, plus news on Blumhouse's attempt at rebooting The Exorcist franchise. We also break down the poster for Jordan Peele's next film Nope, examine the remake of Dead Space, and break down the small screen adaptation of the book "Final Girl Support Group."
Then things get hairy as talk about two new lycanthropic films. Up first is Bloodthirsty, about a pop singer trying to overcome writer's block while simultaneous dealing with the fact that she's either suffering from delusions or is, in fact, a werewolf. Up next is the horror-comedy Werewolves Within, based on the game of the same name and taking a look at small town drama and distrust.
So get ready to howl at the moon with The Grave Plot Podcast!

Here we go again with this shit.
At least once a year, we let Jesus take the wheel. Or, more accurately, we let our Patreon patrons take the wheel and decide what movies we'll be reviewing. This go-round, it's Lake Mungo, chosen by Max Zaleski, and A Dark Song, chosen by Kevin Nesgoda.
Before we get to those, however, we've got to get to Horror Business, including discussing a new Netflix documentary about the recent "proof" of UFOs' existence in Real World Horror. We also take a look at yet another unofficial Night of the Living Dead sequel, an exciting collaboration from two of our favorite filmmakers, and a big screen adaptation of a haunted smart house horror novel. We close out with two stories surrounding another of our favorite filmmakers, Mike Flanalanadingdong, or Mike Flanagan for short.
So buckle up, Sally, 'cause it's gonna be a bumpy ride with another funk-filled episode of The Grave Plot Podcast.

¡Hola! Welcome to the first ever Grave Plot Podcast Cinco de Mayo special! In honor of today's holiday, we're talking about Mexican horror and even, gulp, drinking tequila.
Before we get to all that, though, we gotta talk Business - as in Horror Business. In Real World Horror, we talk about a UK homeowner who made a very startling discovery under their house while digging a drainage hole. We also discuss a George A. Romero film being... brought back to life (get it?). We also tell you all about the new clickbait horror anthology from the makers of WNUF Halloween Special, give an update on the new movie based on Disney's Haunted Mansion, and discuss a new vampire film (dubbed by Taylor as a "blue color Blade") starring Jamie Foxx and Snoop Dogg. Finally we take a look at the possibility of Adam Wingard returning to the... sigh... MonsterVerse.
We then head south of the border for our Cinco de Mayo film reviews! First up is the very... um... polarizing film We Are the Flesh, featuring a homemade underground cave and the depravities that take place therein. Up next is We Are What We Are, the story of a struggling family trying to deal with the loss of their patriarch. Oh, and they also maybe eat people.
So grab yourself some cervezas and join us for another brand new episode of The Grave Plot Podcast!
