We enjoy some socially irrelevant fun with “Re-Elected” and embrace the highly effective micro-budget chiller “Cold Blows the Wind”.
We all already know the country has an awful choice to make. When your choice is a senile old white man or a crazy old man, is there a point in even making one? The answer is yes. Re-Elected from 2020 is a horror movie that knows exactly what it is. It’s a goofy, kind of dumb, but all-around fun watch that should not be (and doesn’t want to be) taken seriously.
You would think that a movie from this era involving dead presidents would have all sorts of social commentary. However, Re-Elected does not have one thing to say about what is happening in today’s world, and it is better for it.
For starters, this is not that type of movie. It’s not that horror cannot say anything relevant; it has always been light years ahead of other genres when it comes to that. It is more about some films being all about just turning off your brain and enjoying what you see at the most visceral level.
Re-Elected is available on multiple streaming platforms, including Prime Video, Vudu Free, and Tubi.
Next, it’s time for our featured new indie horror review: Cold Blows the Wind.
Cold Blows the Wind is an awesomely named indie horror movie that constantly punches above its weight. It is a micro-budget affair that is so good that it allows anyone watching to focus on the plot and characters instead of the value of the production.
Filled with great performances and writing, even noticeable missteps do not detract from the enjoyment.
We also discuss appropriate nudity. For years now, we have discussed how today’s cinema seems to fear being sexy, erotic, or just plain naked. The rub is that, when done right, nudity can add to a film, even when it can be argued that it is not completely necessary. But necessary and appropriate are two entirely different things.
Cold Blows the Wind is available to rent now on VOD. Click here for Morbidly Beautiful’s video review.
ABOUT THIS PODCAST:
Every week AIPT Movie Editor Nathaniel Muir and his cinema partner in crime Blake Heath discuss indie and genre movies you have have never heard of, the ones you cannot hear enough about, and the ones you never want to hear about again.
Episode: 367: ‘Speed Demon’ (2026)
Over the years, we have seen and discussed how horror has become more acceptable in the mainstream. This week we talk about two of the most striking examples of this. One is interesting while the other is just straight up weird. But both have us interested.
The idea of a nun who has lost her faith is not strange for an exorcism movie. Having the first introduction of said nun has her completely nude and coked up after a threesome is a little different. After showing off this incredibly buff nun, the awesomely titled Speed Demon takes off from there.
The film is an example of less being more. It does not reinvent the wheel and tells the simple story of a person trying to overcome their personal demons in order to defeat a literal one. And it works thanks to its setting and quick pace.
But it is in the closing moments that Speed Demon truly shines. In a whirlwind of revelations, the most powerful people in the world become entrenched in Sister Lu’s world. It also sets up the promise of what could be an exciting franchise.
