Four Favorites with Horrorville’s Brett Petersel: Waxworks, night breeds & zombies

It’s a match made in hell as Horrorville editor Brett Petersel joins Gemma and Slim in a basement studio surrounded by zombies to talk through four of his favorite horror films: Clive Barker’s Nightbreed , Karyn Kusama’s The Invitation , Bruce McDonald’s Pontypool and Waxwork from Anthony Hickox. We’re talking uncomfortable dinner parties, single-location horror, Gemma’s terror of wax museums, Slim’s fear of terrible podcasting etiquette and how Brett’s love of Nightbreed could rescue people from cults. Plus: that one time Brett and Slim met Tom Cruise together.
