World of Horror with Mom & Mac
Mom & Mac / Christina Hare & Mac Hare
Frequency: 1 episode/10d. Total Eps: 161

Mother and son team Mom and Mac discuss, analyze, dissect and explore international horror movies. Conversations are casual but spoiler-heavy. We take turns choosing a genre or subgenre of horror and pairing an international film with an American one. Past episodes have included: Funny Games, One Missed Call, Let the Right One In/Let Me In. Genres we have covered are Animal Attack (BOAR from Australia and TREMORS); Creepy Kids (GOODNIGHT, MOMMY from Austria and ORPHAN); Battle Royale-type films (BATTLE ROYALE from Japan and THE BELKO EXPERIMENT); Haunted Houses (THE HOUSE AT THE END OF TIME from Venezuela and BEETLEJUICE). Special episodes feature foundational international horror films or guests who come on to highlight a film that "Means the World of Horror" to them. https://linktr.ee/WorldofHorror

CENSOR: Ep. 148 with Film Vs. Film Podcast: It Means the World of Horror™ to Me Bonus
Season 1 · Episode 148
vendredi 27 septembre 2024 • Duration 01:09:24
Our friend Martin Harries joined us to discuss Prano Bailey-Bond's first feature film from 2021.
We had a lovely ramble, as always.
Detours include: The UK ratings system, Mac watching all the SAW kills on YouTube, how much we all love Michael Smiley, and whether or not media is ever to blame for our behavior.
Martin was a lovely guest, as always! Please go check out his podcast, Film Vs. Film!
Martin has previously joined us on Episodes 121, 94, 90, and 65.

eXistenZ: Episode 139: Squishy Body Horror Part 2: God, the Mechanic
Season 1 · Episode 139
vendredi 14 juin 2024 • Duration 01:15:18
WoHos!
We go on quite a ramble on a number of subjects. Definitely check out the Chapter Markers for this one, if you are just here for the film talk.
I make a number of references to the first conversation we had about eXistenZ. By way of explanation, awhile back, we had paired eXistenZ with TETSUO: THE IRON MAN, but the episode was lost. We are splitting our body horror shows into squishy body horror and metallic body horror. Part 1 of squishy was SOCIETY and for our metallic series, we are looking at TETSUO: THE IRON MAN and TITANE.
Next time, we are looking at Exploitation films with THE HILLS HAVE EYES (1977) from the US and a yet-to-be-determined International film (HIGH LANE, which was originally on the docket is only available in our area in a dubbed form and I cannot). Stay tuned!
After that, we are doing a pair that I have been looking forward to all year: Grim AF movies with BRAZIL from the UK and WHEN EVIL LURKS/CUANDO ACECHA LA MALDAD from Argentina.
Get in touch/Tell all your friends/You know the drill, WoHos!

SIEGE (1983) Episode 49: Stefan MacDonald-Labelle Special Guest: Oh, Canada! Pt 1: Bonus
Season 1 · Episode 49
mercredi 24 novembre 2021 • Duration 01:27:27
WoHos!
This week we have a special guest on the podcast, filmmaker and podcaster (and now, friend of the show), Stefan MacDonald-Labelle! He is an actual Canadian man and he brought us two really great Canadian films: SIEGE & ANYTHING FOR JACKSON. We had such a great time that we had to split the shows into two pieces. This is part one wherein we discuss the Canuxploitation classic, SIEGE. It's wild, you guys.
Mac and Quinn joined me to welcome Stefan and get real northern with it.
Tangents include: How nice are Canadians, really? Is liking musicals like the cilantro gene? When Meg Ryan went against type and turned in her "sweetheart" card, those things we need our own personal trigger warnings for, what Mark Duplass' facial expressions say about him, Tom Nardini's racist profile pic on IMDb. (Judge for yourself:
https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0621365/), Canada's wild home renovations, a specifically Canadian form of toxic masculinity and more.
Stefan's podcast is "Drag Mitch to Hell". Please check it out.
Stefan's website is https://www.terminalburrower.com/ Please do likewise.
Our linktree is linktr.ee/WorldofHorror
Stay tuned for Part 2. We're going to cover ANYTHING FOR JACKSON next time and then we forge ahead into Season 4 of the podcast! Wah-Hoo!
Remember. We love you! DON'T go into the basement!!

GRAVE ENCOUNTERS & GONJIAM: HAUNTED ASYLUM Episode 48: Fully Committed
Season 1 · Episode 48
dimanche 14 novembre 2021 • Duration 01:22:25
WoHo's!
This week for the final regular episode of S3, we looked at the 2011 Canadian found footage cult classic, GRAVE ENCOUNTERS and the 2018 Korean modern variation on a theme, GONJIAM: HAUNTED ASYLUM.
We also discuss favorite movies from October, Uhh Yeah Dude, Mom's zoomie cat, Rosey, and how gosh darned nice it is to record together in the same room!!
Join us next week for a spotlight on Canada, as we welcome filmmaker, podcaster and all-around nice fellow, Stefan MacDonald-LaBelle, to discuss SIEGE (1983) & ANYTHING FOR JACKSON (2020).
Thanks so much for all your support! We are closing in on one year of podcasting and we are really enjoying this. We are looking to do more pairings like we did this week between an American (or in this case Canadian), film and an International film. If you have any bright ideas on that score or on anything else, please get in touch!

13 SINS / 13 BELOVED Episode 47: Don't Do Me Like That, Bro!
Season 1 · Episode 47
mardi 2 novembre 2021 • Duration 01:46:30
WoHo's!!
This week we looked at the Thai horror comedy 13 BELOVED/13: GAME OF DEATH and the American remake 13 SINS.
Content notes: In Mac and Mom chat we talk about making art, Mom's supportive bf and autumn in North Carolina. In the main, we make casual references to capitalism, toxic masculinity, lazy writing and offensive portrayals of intellectually disabled people, per usual, and refer to THE SQUID GAME, ALICE IN BORDERLAND, DOPESICK and MAYHEM.
Here's that Thai Insurance commercial I was telling you about:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U6CSQvdfTKY
Join us in two weeks for the final episode of Season 3 where we look the Hong Kong/Singaporean THE EYE and the American remake, THE EYE.
We love you so much!

THE FLY (1958 & 1986) Episode 45: Beyond the Veil of the Flesh
Season 1 · Episode 45
vendredi 22 octobre 2021 • Duration 01:17:46
WoHos!
Hubris, meet housefly.
This week Mac and I looked at the 1958 classic B movie, THE FLY, and the masterpiece that is the 1986 update, THE FLY.
Other topics discussed: Mac has a triumph at work, Mom may be teaching a psychopath (but she's cool with it) and the disturbing wealth of flies in the 50's. Also very minor spoilers for THE SQUID GAME, COME TRUE, SWEETHEART & THE GREEN INFERNO.
Coming soon (next week)! a Quinnisode on "Not So Scary Halloween Movies" and (in a week and a half or so) Mac and I will review 13 BELOVED (2006) from Thailand and 13 SINS (2014).

BLACK SWAN & PERFECT BLUE Episode 44: Black & Blue
Season 1 · Episode 44
dimanche 3 octobre 2021 • Duration 01:34:14
Hi, there, WoHos!!
This week we watched the 1997 Satoshi Kon psychological thriller, PERFECT BLUE and the 2010 Darren Aronofsky knock off, BLACK SWAN.
Both films concern a young artist who has a psychological break as she is trying to navigate the professional and creative pressures she faces.
We thought PERFECT BLUE had a clearer vision than BLACK SWAN, but at least one of us would watch BLACK SWAN again.
Hey. You know how podcasters often ask for ratings, subscriptions and reviews? We don't typically do that, but we are trying to grow WoHo nation, so to that end I have created a fill-in-the-blanks review form at the bottom. Choose the words and phrases that match your sentiments and cut and paste your completed form into the podcast platform of your choosing, won't you?
In two weeks Mac and I are back with the 1958 Vincent Price classic, THE FLY and the 1986 Jeff Goldblum classic, THE FLY. At some point this month we hope to have the interview we alluded to in the show as well as a Quinnisode with "not too scary" Halloween movies featuring ARSENIC AND OLD LACE and E.T. (It was only a matter of time).
We love you. DON'T go into the basement.

FLIGHT OF THE NAVIGATOR & RIVER'S EDGE Episode 43: A Coupla Picks From '86
Season 1 · Episode 43
samedi 25 septembre 2021 • Duration 56:19
Hey, Q-Balls!
Something came up for Mac this week so we are pushing the main episode one week. Quinn stepped in to do an impromptu "emergency" podcast, though. And it is weird!
In 1986, Quinn was getting ready for kindergarten and Christina was getting ready to graduate high school. Less historically important, 1986 was the year that FLIGHT OF THE NAVIGATOR and RIVER'S EDGE came out. So that is what we talk about on this pod.
We also go down an "indie queens" ramble at the end and we get a little shady toward one Darren Aronofsky.
It's a wild one, Q-Balls! Next time on the main, Mac and I will be discussing PERFECT BLUE and BLACK SWAN and next time on the Quinnisode we will be talking "not so scary" Halloween picks, ARSENIC AND OLD LACE & E.T.
We hope you'll listen and enjoy!! And tell a friend or two!
Until next time,
More dicks!
