Horror Movie Weekly Ep. 157: Bulbbul (2020)

Here in Episode 157 of Horror Movie Weekly, we bring you a Feature Review of a not-quite-Horror Dark Fairy Tale called Bulbbul (2020), streaming on Netflix. During this show, you will hear why Jay of the Dead names Mister Watson as “The King of Horror Movie Weekly.” And for our Micro Horror Movie Reviews, we talk about “True Detective Season 4: Eps. 1-2” and Watson teases his recent guest appearance! Also of note: While they were in West Virginia, Jay of the Dead’s offspring produced this week’s show: The episode was edited by “Gizmo” — Jay of the Dead’s daughter — and the artwork was created by Spawn of the Dead, Jay’s son! Join us!

This weekly Horror movie podcast brings you one recent Horror movie review every Sunday. (As noted previously, we’re defining “recent” as any Horror movie released within the last five years or the current year; so now that it’s 2024, we’ll be covering Horror films from 2019 to the present.) And we always reveal next week’s pick at the end of every show, so you can watch along with us and be prepared for the following episode. Join us, and thanks for listening!
