In the Mouth of Madness & Event Horizon (with Shawn Chiesa & Nick Laskin)

Hell is what you make it. Or maybe it's just an alternate reality created by a prolific Lovecraftian author.
For our penultimate installment in the Vulgar Horror series, we're taking listeners back to the mid-90's for a pair of unhinged bangers starring Sam Neill. First up, it's John Carpenter's meta take on a Stephen King-esque horror writer with 1994's "In the Mouth of Madness," starring Neill as a skeptical insurance investigator slowly unraveling. After that, we're boarding Paul W.S. Anderson's 1997 haunted spacecraft nightmare "Event Horizon," which saw Neill square off against current Thick King Laurence Fishburne.

Writer/critic Nick Laskin and filmmaker/animator Shawn Chiesa join the podcast to reflect on both films' initial failure and current cult status amongst hardcore horror fans. Was "Jurassic Park" actually the anomaly in Neill's versatile filmography? Is Laurence Fishburne one of our most undervalued leading men? Has any director in the Vulgar Auteurist canon received as much of a reappraisal as Paul W.S. Anderson? How many 90's kids suffered nightmares from "Event Horizon?" Is Orgy one of the only enduring nu-metal bands? There's only one place to find out.
