"Never Come Between a Boy and His Jewelry..." - IN A VIOLENT NATURE (2024)

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!
