Episode 99 - Cast Me To Hell’s 99 in Review

In the build up to our 100th episode, we take a look back at some of the 99 episodes (not exactly) that preceded it and our thoughts and feeling about whether we love or hate our very own podcast.
We discuss some of our personal funniest and favourite moments and reflect on a few of the less effective episodes or moments in our 3 year history.

Episode 98 - Drag Me To Hell (2009)

In the build up to our 100th episode we start our reflective journey looking back at our namesake of a film in Sam Raimi's Drag Me To Hell, but the real question is, do we actually like the film?
We talk about how it did, or did not inspire our podcasts name and more importantly we both delve into Sam Raimi's return to horror after a long wallcrawler filled break. 
We discuss the tone and structure of the film, Sam Raimi as an auteur director, Justin Long's history of punishment in horror and Alison Lohman's retirement from acting following this film. 
So prepare yourself for some nail tapping, bile spilling, eyeball popping, flesh burning fun as the Cast Me To Hell boys, Drag You to Hell with us!!!

Episode 97 - Fright Night - Must See Horror

This week we return to our Must See Horror feature and decide the fate of Fright Night, will it be deserving of a place on the Top 100 Horrors of all time or does it deserve a stake through the heart?
We discuss the cult status of the film, the sexual man that is Jerry Dandridge and comparisons with a certain other cult 80's vampire teen horror. We also talk about how the film can be perceived by different viewers with Rob a long time fan of the film and Seb a first time viewer. 
So grab your stakes and crosses, find yourself a local tv celebrity, watch out for your very special, annoying friend and don't invite any sexual men into your house or you'll be in for a proper Fright Night.

Episode 96 - Overrated Horrors - Horror Hot Takes

This week we return to the controversial Horror Hot Takes feature just to annoy you all. Last time we covered Horror Hot Takes we talked about our general Hot Take on things we like or dislike about horror. This time we look at the Overrated Horrors we think exist and are over hyped, get too much love or are just generally bad films. 
We each have come with 3 choices of horror films we personally feel are not as amazing as some will have you believe. These are our personal opinion and feel free to get in touch to tell us if you think we are wrong, that's your opinion. We explain our reasoning for why we believe some horrors gain attention for the wrong reasons, why sometimes the marketing is better than the product, why maybe great horror to some newer horror fans is not the same as great horror to life long fans.  
So feel free to come at us, get ready for some offensive, maybe even to lose some respect as we delve into Seb and Robbies Hot Takes on our most overrated horror films. 
Come share your views on the hot takes @cmthpodcast on Twitter and Instagram.

Episode 95 - Dario Argento’s Suspiria (1977) - Must See Horror

This week we return to our Must See Horror with an absolute Italian horror classic. Seb and Robbie have their first ever viewing of the film discussing the italian horror and Giallo through an auteur like Dario Argento. 
We talk about Dario Argento's work, his approaches to filmmaking and his thoughts on the remake that came out in 2018. We look at the film through the lens of Must See Horror, deciding if all parts of the film or just some key area are strong enough or influential enough that we believe everyone must of must not see this film. 
So get on your dancing shoes, bring the colour, bring the coven and prepare your mind for the mad and mystical world of Argento's Suspiria.

Episode 92 - New York Ripper (1982) - Video Nasties

This week on Cast Me to Hell we return to our Video Nasties feature and take our first proper discussion into the controversial cinema of Lucio Fulci and his Giallo style of horror cinema. 
We discuss the style of Fulci including the notorious dubbing and sound editing that divides opinion. The problems with the production and late script changes due to Fulci and producers differing visions of the film. Including of course the quacking crazy, exploitative, sexual and graphic film that this.
This being video nasty of course we delve into the ban of over 20 years and scenes that are still not included in released cuts of the film to this day. 
So take off everything below the belt....to do your best Donald Duck because for some reason thats what you need to be a ripper in 80's New York and to join in on this weeks manic, crazy video nasty installment.

Episode 91 - The Birds (1962) - Must See Horror

In another installment of Must See Horror we delve into a Hitchcockian classic in The Birds. We discuss the films history, special effects and whether we believe it still lives up to the hype. 
Being a Must See Horror we decide if a Hitchcock film should automatically gain access or is this one pale in comparison to some of his other horror / thrillers?
Robbie also talks about flying above his worries that this is just some shitty film about killer birds. 
So watch the skies, beware childrens' climbing frames and if your a blonde specifically look out for classically trained directors with a fetish.

Episode 90 - Death Race 2000 (1975) - Must See Horror

This week we return with another Must See Horror, going on a journey with Roger Corman produced Death Race 2000 (1975). 
We discuss our main question - Is this a horror film? Should it even be on a Top 100 Must See Horror list? Considering the political satire of this Sci-fi action with a side of gore does it represent what we consider to make a horror film. 
We also discuss the crazy concepts, Sylvester Stallone's scenery chewing alongside David Carradine's status as an action hero and cybernetic love machine, who loves dressing like a gimp. 
So if you want to hear about Possible horrors, Frankensteins, Car Races, Gimps, Nazi's, abuse, rebellion and Naked Spa breaks, you will enjoy our episode on Death Race 2000.
