The Best Little Horror House in Philly

Basket Case (1982) with Zak Greene

When you open a basket at the Best Little Horror House, you're not likely to find a picnic! Zak Greene is here to talk about Frank Henenlotter's exploitation icon, Basket Case - and we're getting into the hidden depths and Shakespearean allusions while also making time to discuss Belial's cloaca! That's called range. 
 
Zak also wanted to mention, but forgot, that Basket Case and another wonderful Henenlotter hit, Brain Damage, are playing as a double feature at Connecticut's Strand Theater in Seymour on August 21st! If you're in the area, why not support a local venue and see some fantastic flicks?

But now you have a chance to redeem yourself - all you have to do is listen to Brodie Reed from The Dark Weeb Podcast talk about his pick for the best horror movie ever made, Saw VI.
Do you have what it takes to make it through us pitching The Big Saw? Or will the discussion of misleading your audience with the Kuleshov Effect be too much? You must decide. Your time starts now.
