Fearless Films

Fearless Films

Fearless Films Podcast is a weekly show where we walk through horror movies, breaking down the beats, discussing the lore and interesting trivia of all the best (and worst) in the horror movie genre. The show started as Pete, the horror buff, explaining the plots of horror movies to Kevin, the scaredy cat, who hates being scared but is intrigued by these modern mythologies. Kevin eventually retired from the podcast, but the show goes on! Pete is now joined by Sarah, who also loves horror movies, and they continue the tradition of explaining the scariest stories to all the scaredy cats out there, so they don't have to watch the movies.

Sarah takes us through this domestic horror film that is sickeningly based on true events. A family man holds his daughter captive in his secret basement dungeon for many years and father's multiple children with her. This entire movie is basically a two hour trigger warning.

Long before Halloween made it the hottest trend and Scream was spoofing the idea, Jaws was the master of the requel.

This week, Pete takes us through Jaws: The Revenge, a film that completely ignores the events of the third entry and bills itself as the "actual" end of the trilogy.

Lorrain Gary returns from retirement to portray Ellen Brody, widow and grieving mother after the death of her youngest son. Her ol...

Just when you thought October was safe again... it's another franchise!!

This year, Pete is hunting for the sequels to one of the greatest movies of all time, Jaws! Somehow, this cinema classic got not only one, but three sequels. And one of them is even a requel, starting well before Halloween made that its defining feature.

Jaws 2, from 1978, is a mix of the classic Jaws formula and the then-budding slasher genre...

When the students of an athletic academy begin disappearing in bloody ways, their Olympic dreams will become... an Olympic Nightmare!!

...wait a second, the name of this movie is Fatal Games. Or is it The Killing Touch?

No matter which of its many titles you pick, Pete's choice this week is a bad 80's slasher movie that suffers from being overly tropey, horribly offensive on multiple fronts, and just a general...

This week, we are talking about a spinoff from a franchise that was so spun, it doesn't even count anymore! It's The Curse of La Llorona!

Happy Fourth of July, Fearless Fans!! It's time for another holiday slasher!!

This week, Pete breaks down Uncle Sam, a cheap slasher about an undead soldier that punishes the unpatriotic... but also just any random person that's around. It's poorly made, often boring, and completely nonsensical. We're sure you'll love it!

The doll is back (again) in what may be the worst titled entry in the franchise - Annabelle Comes Home!

Sarah breaks down the third and (hopefully) final Annabelle film, which tells the story of a night of babysitting gone wrong. The Warren's daughter's babysitter accidentally lets loose the killer doll from the MUSEUM OF CURSED OBJECTS. Predictably, things go very wrong.

This late 90's western tells the story of a church-backed group of cowboys who hunt vampires across the United States. James Woods and one of the lesser Baldwin brothers must stop the bad guy from Karate Kid 3 before he unlocks a da...

    Ruthie's Table 4

    For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
