Watched Rabbit Trap last night; slow burn sinister Welsh psychological/folk horror about the Tylwyth Teg. Really enjoyable film in which everyone involved got exactly what they wanted, which is always nice, isn’t it??

Had a fantastic night on Saturday, watching Rabbit Trap and Starve Acre back to back for the upcoming Folk 'n' Hell #Halloween special #podcast 2 modern #folkhorror classics which take the same premise in very different but equally rewarding directions. Listen to all episodes at www.folknhell.com

Recording a double bill tonight. Rabbit Trap, Starve Acre and supplies

Harvest (2025) Beautiful fields. Beautiful lighting. Zero pulse. Every scene whispers, “Something’s about to happen…” — but nothing ever does, except another shot of wheat feeling emotions. 🌾😐 Great vibes if you love mud, staring, and existential farming. ⭐️⭐️ for the mud's performance alone.

NEW EPISODE: HELLBENDER (2021) What did your family do during lockdown? The Adams family made a witch movie. Folk 'n' Hell gets stuck in to decide whether it’s folk horror, family therapy, or an out of hand home video. On Spotify, Apple, or wherever you get your podcasts. www.folknhell.com

Folk 'n' Hell descends into the Dutch peatlands for Moloch (2022) — where ancient bodies rise, curses linger, and the bog hides something older than sin. 💀 Folklore, body horror, and a finale that hits like a ritual blade. Listen now at www.folknhell.com or where you get your podcasts

FolknHell sinks its teeth into The Company of Wolves (1984), Neil Jordan’s surreal reimagining of Angela Carter’s The Bloody Chamber. Fever dreams, fairy tales, and wolves (both literal and metaphorical). Listen at folkandhell.com

It's folk music, not folk horror

Folk horror hits different in autumn — the smell of damp earth, the whisper of something ancient in the trees, and that feeling you’re being watched by something that remembers when the village was still a forest. #folkhorror #autumnvibes

Folk 'n' Hell discuss Azrael (2024), a Rapture-set, wordless horror with mute cults, fiery burned ones, and a demonic birth. Is it folk horror brilliance… or just nicking the vibes? 🎧 Tune in for cults, tunnels, blood rituals & plenty of debate. tinyurl.com/fnhazrael #Podcast #FolkHorror

The next Folk 'n' Hell podcast drops tomorrow at 7.06am (that's 666 :)) Which gives you plenty of time to watch this episode's film, 2024's Azrael All episodes available at www.folknhell.com

🐺✨ FolknHell dives into The Company of Wolves (1984) — Neil Jordan’s dreamlike fairy tale. Blurring nightmares, desires, and folklore in a lush, surreal world, we unpack its eerie metaphors, gender dynamics, and why this folk-horror gem still has a bite. 🔥 Listen now: tinyurl.com/562wyewr

New Folk ’n’ Hell! We dive into Laurin (1989) — Robert Sigl’s German oddity where fairy tale meets Hammer horror. Vanishing kids, spectral visions & crimson-soaked dream logic. But is it folk horror? iTunes tinyurl.com/5x3rtyfp Spotify tinyurl.com/bdz9d4my Amazon tinyurl.com/235wwkyh

Ever wondered what’s lurking under the Dutch peat? 👀 Sink waist-deep into Moloch (2022)—a bog-soaked folk horror of generational curses, body horror, & way too much vomit. Mist, murder, possession, and a finale that punches harder than a peat-clogged boot. 🎙️ Listen now: folkandhell.com

Damien McCarthy's next film, Hokum, has been picked up for distribution by NEON. Starring Adam Scott, the film's out next year. If you've seen Caveat and, in particular, for folk horror fans, the superb Oddity, you'll know why this is great news

This week FolknHell treks into the Swiss Alps with Sennentuntschi (2010), Michael Steiner’s strange and unsettling take on an Alpine legend. 3 isolated goatherds, in a drunken haze of absinthe, fashion a woman out of broomsticks, rags, and paint. Shenanigans ensue... Listen at www.folknhell.com

In a break from usual programming, I'm off to a preview of this tonight

We were going to go in there on Monday. Glad we have it a swerve. The Garden Cafe has much nicer cakes, anyway

If you like a bit of Folk Horror (as I do) "Luz: Flower of Evil" on Amazon now is a good watch.

There's an excellent coffee shop over the road on your right

Oh, the Candyman is absolutely a folk horror. Isolated community under threat from a demon borne of the circumstances that have oppressed them. Barker's original story makes it even more explicit.

🎙️ New episode: SENNENTUNTSCHI 🐐 Three drunken goatherds. 🧹 A woman made of broomsticks and paint. We dive into Sennentuntschi (2010), a bizarre Swiss folk tale that veers between true crime, folklore, and fever dream. 🔗 Listen now - www.folknhell.com

I'd have to go for Robert Eggers' The Witch. It's folk horror through and through and a genuinely disturbing story.

Vertigo Releasing is paw-sitively excited to announce that the highly anticipated new horror, #GoodBoy, will be coming to UK & Irish cinemas from 10th October. Watch the trailer here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORiP...
