Grease Stains & Good Times: Pulse (2001) & Cam (2018) w/ Amber T

We’ve been subsumed into the Net, ghouls. But it’s okay; we’ve got friends in here. We’re talking to our friend Amber, host of our fellow horror podcast HornBloodFire about a double feature based on keywords: isolation, Internet, surreal - Kiyoshi Kurosawa’s darkly prescient vision of Internet apocalypse, Pulse (2001), and Isa Mazzei and Daniel Goldhaber’s folkloric tale of camming and doppelgangers, Cam (2018).

Are you Online? This episode is for you. Raise your hand if you’ve got ban anxiety, and/or if you’ve ever gotten super worried about a Twitter mutual’s mental health. If you’re not online, this episode still has plenty of discussion that might interest you, like Amber’s fear of whales (not Wales) and stairs, the fantasy of a sexy double, and the joy of yucking other people’s yum. Sounds good? We’ll meet you in the red tape room.

Amber T is host of HornBloodFire podcast, reviewer and writer for Ghouls Magazine, Grimoire of Horror and Beauty of Horror. She loves J Horror, female rage and talking shit on Twitter.

Check out the episode of HornBloodFire we guested on to talk about one of our favorites, Hagazussa (which also happens to be the podcast’s namesake).
