Horror Hyperfixations

It's been a while since I've done a rambly update, so here's a chaos goblin update, a re-introduction of sorts and sharing about starting ADHD meds. My brain is braining worse than usual at the moment - sometimes you can hear my brain reboot mid-sentence and start again. I cut most of it out, but left a few in for a li'l summin' summin'.I jibber away to myself about seeing Ghost Stories for the 6th, 7th and 8th times, all the festivals I've attended and how bloody hard it's been since starting on meds.SocialsInstagram: @horrorhyperfixations / @sam.munsterTiktok: @horrorhalloweenandhomeLetterboxd: @sammunsterPatreon: Sam MunsterBlog: Sam MunsterHell on Shirts discount code: Munster10

I am super excited to share this episode, as I had such a brilliant time talking about staging in horror with Robin. I put Robin on the spot to share 5 movies that are worth a(nother) watch, to pay attention to all the little details. Listen to the episode and then go (re)appraise the staging!SocialsRobin: @robinbatsInstagram: @horrorhyperfixations / @sam.munsterTiktok: @horrorhalloweenandhomeLetterboxd: @sammunsterPatreon: Sam MunsterBlog: Sam MunsterHell on Shirts discount code: Munster10

I talked to Ghoulie about The Conjuring Universe, playing the clapping game as a child and being dung the Crooked Man nursery rhyme. Eeek!We recorded this before the 4th movie came out, but it accidentally took me 3 months (not 4, like I said in the intro) to edit it and put it out.

Me and the glorious Emma Arneil of Beyond the Scream and The Horror and Her had a brilliant natter about Haute Tension, new French extremity and the jars of pickled onions in my brain. Standard behaviour when me and Em get together! 😅SocialsEmma: @beyondthescreampodcast / @thehorrorandherpodcastInstagram: @horrorhyperfixations / @horrorhalloweenandhomeTiktok: @horrorhalloweenandhomeLetterboxd: @sammunsterPatreon: Sam MunsterBlog: Sam MunsterHell on Shirts discount code: Munster10

Rhyller Thriller is a fantastic horror film festival in North Wales. I spent a weekend watching awesome movies and shorts with some brilliant people - I already can’t wait for next year!
