The New Gorepress Gorecast63. SlitherFollowing their leave of absence, Sarah and Phil are back with a vengeance - with two vengeances no less - to cast their collective gaze over James Gunn's homage to all things body-horror, Slither! Nodding its tentacle-bedecked head at films from Night of the Creeps to A Nightmare on Elm Street, does it manage to stand on its own two malformed feet, or should it squirm back from whence it came?

Taking its cue from The Three Billy Goats Gruff, of all things, it deals with a rather different interpretation of the troll under the bridge...but what did they think of it? Tune in to find out...
As usual they give us their rundowns of their recent – surprisingly television-centric – watches, including Pacific Rim, Game of Thrones, Dexter and...unfortunately...True Blood. Oh, and Ross Kemp gets a mention.

Both tell the tale of a group of children who accidentally unleash a malevolent force after discovering a mysterious and seemingly infinitely deep hole somewhere in their house. But how do the two films match up? Tune in to find out...

Set in a dystopian city, Terminus, The Signal follows the story of a core of three characters as a mysterious signal is transmitted through every broadcast medium, reducing a large proportion of the public to nothing more than their animalistic instincts.
Directed by three different people, The Signal's setup is a little different to the standard film framework; it is constructed of three 'intermissions', each giving a slightly different take on the events of the film. But is it successful...

This week's slice off of the World of Horror comes from The Ramsay Brothers, Bollywood's first family of horror. Purana Mandir was made in 1984 and terrified an entire generation of Hindi film fans. Although little-seen out of its native land, Purana Mandir is hailed as a classic in India and for good reason. Containing everything from lavish dance numbers to demonic dealings and even chucking in some Kung Fu for good measure, Purana...

Hooper is the writer/director of Plastic Love, a fetishistic love story about obsession and loss which will be doing the festival circuit in 2013.
For Jamie's featured film, he picked Frank Darabont's The Mist from 2007, full to bursting with CG monsters and worse humans. It divides us, but I think we squeeze a pretty decent discussion out of it. Obviously, there are spoilers galore.
