Description

Your host Paul Waller (not Weller) is a horror movie addict. During 2020 the workload for his band and music management job slowed right down. At this same time he discovered the movie social networking platform LETTERBOXD. Armed with this database he decided to fill in the gaps of his horror film knowledge. Within week one he was averaging 3 a day. This podcast is the result of that horror compulsion - A YEAR IN HORROR

Eye of the Devil (1966) w/ Twin Temple
2024/02/14
J. Lee Thompson directed Cape Fear in 1962, Happy Birthday to Me in 1981 plus a couple of Planet of the Apes movies as part of his genre sweep during his career. Eye of the Devil is often overlooked which is a real shame. When I asked the fantastic satanic doo-woppers TWIN TEMPLE to pick a movie to cover for this show, imagine my delight when they came back with that very choice. YES! Today we are joined by singer Alexandra Jones and her guitarist husband Zach. That's right! It's the time of the Temple. Right here, right now.

The Exorcist (1973) w/ Gost
2024/01/11
It's mid month - It's music time - It's horror time - & here on A Year In Horror we aint afraid of no Gost. Very rarely indeed is it that a relatively new artist will take hold of my very essence & rattle it about enough to shake up what I consider my untouchable top 10 artists ever list in music but thats just what Gost did when I discovered them shortly after the release of their sophomore album, Behemoth. This is the sort of conversation that takes place when i fanboy over a life changer. Enjoy!
