Lunch Hour Reviews Goodnight Mommy, Welcome to Leith, and Ava's Possessions
We watched and compared notes for the fantastic Austrian film Goodnight Mommy (2014), and then the thriller documentary Welcome to Leith (2015)! Lastly Darren watched Ava's Possessions (2015)... and was disappointed.

On behalf of Norman Bates, we wish you a Happy Mother's Day! We spend some time at the original Bates Motel loving and analyzing Alfred Hitchcock's 1960 horror classic, Psycho.
Documentary Horror!
When fact is stranger than fiction, and fear is something we all have in common, we present Documentary Horror. Covering a number of styles, we analyze Cropsey, The Galapagos Affair, and The Nightmare. With a few honorable mentions: Brother's Keeper, and Jesus Camp.
Lunch Hour Reviews Circle, Hush & 3 Seconds
We took our mics and recorder out for some fresh air. Recording outdoors to talk the sci-fi horror Circle, then Mike Flanagan's new Netflix film Hush, and we have an interview with Alex J. Mann, the writer/director of the Snapchat movie 3 Seconds. Also we cover the details of @SaveHorror's March Madness challenge between some podcasting colleagues.

We compare and contrast two classic sci-fi horror film adaptations: The Fly from 1958, starring Vincent Price, and David Cronenberg's 1986 body horror classic with Jeff Goldblum & Gina Davis.
Green Room!
Jeremy Saulnier's hardcore punk survival story Green Room is an impressive work. Honest and brutal, perfectly plotted, the scares and shocking moments are concussively impactful. Green Room is out Friday, April 15th in New York, and LA and nationwide April 29th. Check it out, see it with friends.
Ice Cream Man!
We watched Ice Cream Man. The the bizarre 1995 collaboration between Clint Howard and a prolific porn director. Mindy loves it for numerous reasons, and Darren is still confused. We also cover The Walking Dead Season 6 finale, do some catching up, and talk music. Apophenia is out now on the FANGORIA MUSICK site, on iTunes.
