Happy Halloween, my Beautiful Screamerz!

To celebrate our favorite holiday, I'm tackling one of the most polarizing, controversial and underestimated films of the year: the Canadian experimental slasher film IN A VIOLENT NATURE. [Currently Streaming on Shudder]

Did you love it? Or did you hate it?

What happens when you strip a horror movie of all humanity?

Is it a fascinating examination of human psychology, horror voyeurism and audience ethics?

Or is it a boring slog with a few good kills and a whole lot of walking?

Joining me for this episode are my co-hosts from "Damn You Uncle Lewis", Trae Dean and Maya Murphy.

We'll explore how director Chris Nash toyed with the basic rules of filmmaking to craft a film designed deliberately to make viewers feel mentally detached and emotionally.

More importantly, we'll make you understand why he made the movie this way.

Whether you loved IN A VIOLENT NATURE or hated it, you'll see it in a brand new light after this episode of ScreamQueenz!

Excerpts of MICHAEL CAINE are from Michael Caine: On Acting In Film (1987) Directed by DAVID G. CROFT.

IN A VIOLENT NATURE was written and directed by CHRIS NASH and stars RY BARRETT, ANDREA PAVALOVIC, CAMERON LOVE, REESE PRESLEY, LIAM LEONE, CHARLOTTE CREAGHAN, LEA ROSE SEBASTIANIS, SAM ROULSTON, ALEXANDER OLIVER, TIMOTHY PAUL MCCARTHY, JT JACOBS and LAUREN MARIE TAYLOR
