Today we are talking Host (2020), a groundbreaking horror film shot entirely on Zoom during the COVID-19 lockdown. What begins as a harmless activity quickly spirals into terror as a demonic presence invades their homes. We explore the film's innovative use of screenlife storytelling, its timely commentary on isolation, and how it became a standout in the "quarantine horror" genre.

432 - 28 Days Later (2002) Guest: Kyle Castro from Movie Wars Podcast
FINALLY! We are covering 28 Days Later, the zombie apocalypse movie that redefined the genre—by swapping slow-moving zombies for rage-fueled sprinting maniacs. We discuss how post-apocalyptic London looks suspiciously like a when the royal weddign happens, why the "infected" are potentially the least of your problems, and how the film proves that survival during a pandemic is only slightly less horrifying than surviving this economy. Grab some pepsi, avoid the infected, and join us for this chaotic journey through viral nightmares!Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/wheel-of-horror/id1534102813 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3HnyAISG8Z8hvMFdSG60tE?si=9b785cf21c7f46a3 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@wheelofhorrorpodcast1802/videos Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wheel_of_horror/ Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/HorrorWheel
