We start by talking about some of the stuff involving horror recently. We discuss the Showtime series Yellowjackets.

We start with Viy. We briefly discuss the films history, in that it is the only horror film released in the Soviet Union, and how it’s based upon the same source material as Bava’s Black Sunday.

Justin talks about how the film initially wasn’t to his liking due to the protagonist’s tendency to “yuck it up” and play the oaf, but later during the films climax he found the film quite frightening.
