We found the ideal “quiet little horror as giallo”—1976’s The House with Laughing Windows. We discuss weird Italian towns, brightly-lit attics, and this film’s overlap with folk horror. Also: what’s in that bag?

In which we continue our Powell and Pressburger coverage and identity three primary life lessons: men should wear more shorts, don’t repress your emotions and thus lose your mind, and no colonialism. Let’s talk about Black Narcissus.

Oh hey, we released a new episode recently. It's a good time of year for us to stay in and listen to ghost stories about snow yokai killing men in the woods. Let's talk about KWAIDAN. quietlittlehorrors.com/episode-s07e...

I had the great honor to appear on the Quiet Little Horrors podcast to chat about the 1976 film (and the book that it’s based on) The Tenant. @quietlittlehorrors.bsky.social quietlittlehorrors.com/episode-06-1...

Hey, happy new year! We have a bunch of thoughts about FRANKENSTEIN. Join us, won't you. quietlittlehorrors.com/episode-s07e...

New episode! We're completing Robert Altman's "women-focused" trilogy with 3 WOMEN and THAT COLD DAY IN THE PARK (both of which are still currently streaming on Criterion Channel if you want to play along at home): quietlittlehorrors.com/episode-06-1...

Happy Halloween! We made a new episode for you about a demonic toy monkey who kills people, you're welcome. quietlittlehorrors.com/episode-06-1...

New episode! Yet another entry in the “teenage girls are terrifying” files with Peter Jackson’s fictionalized tale of New Zealand’s most infamous real murderesses in HEAVENLY CREATURES: quietlittlehorrors.com/episode-06-1...

New episode! Bluesky still isn't finding our image tags for the link preview, so enjoy a photo plus a regular old hyperlink. Also, enjoy the episode on CRACKS. quietlittlehorrors.com/episode-06-0...

Well, hello there. We took a somewhat impromptu summer break. But we're coming back this Sunday with an episode on a 2007 hidden gem full of teenage angst, girl-on-girl violence and Eva Green looking fabulous. You probably missed CRACKS when it came out so catch up before the next episode drops.

Bluesky has inexplicably stopped finding our website's link preview image tags so apologies for the un-pretty link preview—but new episode! This one's for David.

New episode! Let's talk about FRÉWAKA.

Oh, hey, look at that. We're back. With a super chill movie to talk about. Enjoy ANTICHRIST! Or, more likely, don't! quietlittlehorrors.com/episode-06-0...

New episode! Brighten up your weekend with a trip through Bergman's carnival of tortured psyches. We discuss HOUR OF THE WOLF.

New episode! It's time to claim Ingmar Bergman as a horror director. Exhibit A: CRIES AND WHISPERS.

New episode! We're still talking about vampires. This time we're focusing on two strange yet strangely complementary ones: I LIKE BATS and MARTIN.

Hey, this is your regular reminder that we keep an ongoing list of all the movies we cover over on Letterboxd. There are links to listen to each episode so you can browse our whole back catalog that way. It also usually has a sneak peek of the movies coming up in future episodes.

New episode! We wanted to keep the vampire party going, so we decided to just discuss all our favorite vampires.

A salute and farewell to David Lynch.

Oh, hey, we have a new episode out. The first of 2025 and of our SIXTH (!) season. And it's a big one.

Hey, not sure if you've noticed, but it's almost the end of the year. So we took a look back at our favorites from 2024, including some possibly overlooked gems we want everyone to watch.

We just recorded our 2024 favorites episode, which will drop in a couple of weeks. Topics covered: our favorites of our own episodes, our favorite films (new and old) we watched, and what we're looking forward to in 2025. Way too many recommendations incoming. Prepare your lists.

New episode time! We discuss the recent film, THE DEVIL'S BATH. We're more divided on this one than usual, which spices up proceedings a bit.

Hey, here's a brief thread of episodes from my little horror film podcast that I didn't share on Bluesky because I wasn't on Bluesky. First off, the booked to our IDENTIKIT episode: THE STRANGLER, a deeply weird French giallo that has a sailor-themed musical scene for no reason whatsoever. Into it.

Hey, it's a new episode. How about that. Join us to celebrate Queen Liz at her fiercest and weirdest as we talk about INDENTIKIT.

It's time. Let's talk about LONGLEGS.

Oh, hey, we made a new podcast episode. It's a little late because our high-tech scheduling system (which is Jen) mixed up the weeks. But it's time to begin Oz Perkins season! We discuss his first film, THE BLACKCOAT'S DAUGHTER.

What else could we follow up LAST NIGHT WITH THE DEVIL with but one of the most notoriously dread-and demon-filled found footage films out there. Let's talk about GHOSTWATCH.

New episode! Let's talk about LATE NIGHT WITH THE DEVIL.

Hey, it's a new episode. Look at that. Or, rather, listen to it. That might work better. In any case, we wrap up our mini series about doppelgangers with the overlooked psychological thriller gem, THE MAN WHO HAUNTED HIMSELF. Come for Roger Moore, stay for the deadly mid-life crises.

New episode! Double-a-palooza continues with another episode about doppelgangers: 2019's US.

Better late than never, etc. Sorry for the delay, but the latest episode is now out! Let's talk about VERTIGO.

Oh, hey there. How's it going. We took a month-long spring break. But we're back! Over the next couple of months, we're going to cover films on a favorite theme: doppelgangers. We start with 2010's BLACK SWAN.

New episode! We follow up ROBIN REDBREAST with more folk horror on a certain theme we will not state here because it would kind of spoil this movie. So maybe you should just wander into CRONE WOOD.

New episode! We plumb the depths of British television for a gem of classic folk horror: ROBIN REDBREAST.

New episode! We go deep on one of our favorites of 2023, ENYS MEN.

New episode! Something a little different this time: at the close of our fourth (!) season, we talk a bit about our mission statement and how it's changed, or not, over time—plus, our favorites, new and old, from 2023.

New episode! We're still in the festive spirit, so let's talk about both remakes of BLACK CHRISTMAS and how they stack up against the original.

New episode and it's seasonally appropriate! Don’t answer your phone! Or trust your weirdly controlling boyfriend! But do drink and insult people à la Margo Kidder as Barb. Let’s talk about the original BLACK CHRISTMAS.

New episode! Let's talk about SHADOW OF THE VAMPIRE.

Preview of coming attractions. Next episode drops tomorrow, prepare your stakes.

Oh, hey, we've got a new episode out! This month we're talking silent horror films and first we go deep on weird and wild German Expressionism with THE CABINET OF DR. CALIGARI.

New episode! We're still stuck in the suburbs. What else is there to do but spy on the weird, creepy neighbors. Let's talk about THE 'BURBS.

I really enjoyed this episode - the hosts pointed out so many fascinating director/writer/actor choices and themes that I'd completely missed, though I've seen this movie a ton of times. If you like smart people discussing movies, give this podcast a try:

New episode! Let's talk about POLTERGEIST. quietlittlehorrors.com/episode-04-1...

New episode! Let's talk about the delightful fever dream that is HAUSU.

The second episode in our haunted house theme drops tomorrow and it's going to get weird. So, you know, subscribe and stuff.

It's time we got on over here to Bluesky. So: Hi! We're a podcast that discusses quiet, uneasy, queasy, psychological and/or otherwise weird and offbeat horror films, two episodes a month. We have a lovely little website where you can browse our 3+ years' worth of episodes: quietlittlehorrors.com
