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.

Episode 374: Special Edition ‘Evil Dead Burn’ (2026)
SPOILER ALERT!!! THE EPISODE CONTAINS MAJOR SPOILERS FOR ‘EVIL DEAD BURN’
The ‘Evil Dead’ franchise means a lot to us. It has touched us on a personal level, it has earned its place in horror history, and it is one of the few franchises in Hollywood to never release a bad installment. We talk about whether ‘Evil Dead Burn’ continues the trend and why it will probably always be the most polarizing entry in the series.
A few weeks back we talked about how ‘Evil Dead Burn’ had to be trimmed in order to get an ‘R’ rating. We wondered how bad it could have been and even tried to figure out what extreme horror even means today. As it turns out, ‘Evil Dead Burn’ is incredibly graphic. Was it too much or perfect for an ‘Evil Dead’ movie?
There has been lots of talk about how ‘Evil Dead Burn’ does not fit into the franchise. (This seems to be a conversation whenever a new ‘Evil Dead film releases.) There is definitely nothing else like it in the series. We also compare it to another movie that was released this year and wonder which was the better ‘Evil Dead’ movie.
