We explore women coming undone — discussing a bewildering blast from the past, “Night of the Coba Woman”, and a modern marvel, “Stopmotion”.
Stopmotion
We begin, as always, with news of what’s happening in the world of horror.
We may give our opinions on a few movies each week, but it is rare that we go back and remind the audience that they have to go out and watch something. Lovely, Dark, and Deep is the rare exception. We have absolutely gushed about it since we first saw it last year and are glad to see it has finally been released in theaters. There are a lot of options on what to spend your theater bucks on, but this is an absolute must-see.
True Detective: Night Country was over before it began, and we have a lot to talk about.
We also discuss just how close the world came to getting a Truth or Dare 2 (not the Madonna version). But the strangest news of the week just may have been who has been attached to the Bee Gees biopic.
Then, it’s on to our featured film reviews.
Night of the Cobra Woman
Night of the Cobra Woman is a strange movie. The story of a woman who is bit by a cobra — and apparently has to sleep with men to remain young — never really materializes.
A person’s first appearance sees assault, then killing a woman, while his last scene is him saving the day. People realize their significant others are in danger and just leave. Nothing makes sense, and it looks like everyone involved had no idea what they were doing. At least the makeup effects were good.
Stopmotion is the exact opposite.
The story of a talented artist who becomes obsessed with their work is not new to horror. But the performances, effects, and storytelling in the film are fantastic. Though this is live-action, it also includes some great animated moments.
The horror is expertly done in this surprising and unique film, and there is something in Stopmotion for all genre fans to enjoy.
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 371: ‘Hungry’ (2026)
The Evil Dead franchise holds a special place in our hearts. It is a part of our youth and brings back lots of pleasant memories. There has also never been anything like it. We talk about how the new Evil Dead movies are continuing to live up to the awesome legacy. We also spend some time discussing how two horror icons have finally come together.
There have been a ton of sharksploitation movies over the decades since Jaws invented the sub-genre. On this show alone, we have gone to Venice, Mexico, and Malta in search of great sharksploitation. It has been a mixed bag, to say the least.
Along with shark movies, there have been tons of killer animal flicks. We have even managed to cover a few. Hungry provided us with something new. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first hippo horror movie. Being the first means there are some pretty glaring missteps. But when the film is firing on all cylinders, it is something to behold.
Did we just witness the first good use of AI? Can you find hippos in the wild in North America? How important are well written characters in an “when animals attack movie”? Why did we talk about all this when there was a killer hippo running rampant? We discuss all this and more.
