Bone Tomahawk
Season 12 · Episode 1
mercredi 13 mai 2026 • Duration 01:35:33
Like a monster you can't keep down...we're back!
NQD is reviving our Patrick Wilson season with the cult classic Bone Tomahawk. Released in 2015 and the first feature film from director S. Craig Zahler, this slow-burn western horror is a delight for almost everyone. An all star ensemble rounds out this excellent movie: Kurt Russell, Matthew Fox, and the always endearing Richard Jenkins.
The Girls are joined by friend of the podcast, Jeremy who HATES horror movies. What a cruel (and/or hilarious) movie to endure him to.
Hard Candy
Season 12 · Episode 1
vendredi 18 juillet 2025 • Duration 56:15
Cate and Meg discuss colors, social justice, corny writing, and of course, our guy Patrick Wilson!
Dawn of the Dead (2004)
Season 10 · Episode 6
vendredi 21 juin 2024 • Duration 01:31:46
A remake that’s…pretty good! Dawn of the Dead is already a zombie classic, and while this version doesn’t update much, it does place us squarely in the early 2000s. Special guests High on Film’s Brad Davis and Chris Maxwell join us for this action-packed episode!
Before he was releasing cuts of DC movies, Zack Snyder directed the remake of Dawn of the Dead. Featuring the iconic mall setting and a creepy little zombie baby, it’s a modern classic!
Discussion points include: mall theft, power-tripping security guards, and the saddest chess game ever.
Season 3 Indie Finale
Season 3 · Episode 10
vendredi 18 décembre 2020 • Duration 56:14
Let's give a round of applause to the finale of the Independent Horror Film season! We hope you enjoyed the byzantine plot structures, artistic cinematography, and wild allegory conjecture as much as Megan and Cate did. Make sure to check out our Instagram @notquitedead_podcast and follow our blog for extras!

Babadook
Season 3 · Episode 9
vendredi 11 décembre 2020 • Duration 01:00:55
The most terrifying tale of all: motherhood! The Babadook (2014), directed by Jennifer Kent, is ostensibly a story of a boogeyman plaguing a single Australian mother and her spirited son. But as Megan and Cate get into it, it's a gruesome, difficult to watch tale of unchecked grief, parenthood, and PTSD.

Midsommar
Season 3 · Episode 8
vendredi 4 décembre 2020 • Duration 01:40:49
Dancing, endless sunshine, tea that makes you feel funny. Sounds like a good time, right? Well, if you’re an American in the 2019 film Midsommar, it could really go either way!
Listen to the penultimate movie of Season 3 and debate with us - would you rather have a shitty boyfriend or a slightly murderous Swedish cult family?

It Follows
Season 3 · Episode 7
lundi 30 novembre 2020 • Duration 29:34
What is "It"? In this minisode, Megan and Cate discuss whether "It" is sexual shame, AIDS, general trauma - and strongly disagree with director David Robert Mitchell's intention. It Follows (2014) tracks a group of teenagers as they resist a slow-moving yet consistent apparition.
Listen to this short episode and debate along with us - the interpretation is most of the fun!

Green Room
Season 3 · Episode 6
vendredi 20 novembre 2020 • Duration 58:22
A broke punk band, a sketchy gig in the Pacific Northwest, and a Nazi gang cover-up conspiracy. What could go wrong?
Jeremy Saulnier's 2015 horror-thriller Green Room has all of the tension and surprising gore you could ask for. Megan and Cate debate about effective techniques for fighting against dumb-yet-strong white supremacists and discuss what our desert island band would be.

Hereditary
Season 3 · Episode 5
vendredi 13 novembre 2020 • Duration 01:04:32
We thought we'd break up season 3 with a family-friendly movie - Hereditary (2018)! Do some arts and crafts alongside mom Annie, play with dolls with Charlie, go for a joyride with Peter, and share a nice meal with dad Steve. Whatever you do, don't look too closely at grandma's scrapbooks.
Join the Not Quite Dead gals as they get into Ari Aster's psychologically horrifying debut feature-length film.

The Wicker Men
Season 3 · Episode 4
vendredi 6 novembre 2020 • Duration 33:18
A tale of two giant wooden effigies, painstakingly crafted by rural island cultspeople. A tale of two protagonists, deeply unlikeable in their own ways. A tale as old as time: the original and the remake.
Megan and Cate get into The Wicker Man (1973) and The Wicker Man (2006) to analyze what makes the original so great, and what makes the remake so, so bizarre. Watch both, watch one, or watch neither – any way, this short episode is a fun one!
