We bid you welcome to the first MODERN HORROR PODCAST episode of 2026.
Hosted by authors A. J. Black and Hugh McStay, Modern
Horror focuses on horror cinema from 2010 onwards, examining the best,
worst, biggest and most obscure horror pictures from around the world.
They begin a brand new year with a special episode where they look back at all 57 films and TV series they have covered in the last year and change, putting them in a ranking order and attempting to find the 'Dark God'; the modern horror movie to rule them all. Which film will emerge on top?
