FolknHell heads to a remote Devon church for The Borderlands🎙️ Vatican sceptics and an older belief system under the floorboards. Constant explanations about cameras spoil the format but the ending finally remembers how to terrify folknhell.s.gy/bdrlnds #FolkHorror #TheBorderlands #FolknHell

@folknhell.bsky.social if the director of The Exorcist says this is one of the scariest movies ever, listen to him.

#49 Speaking of Australian folk horror... Wake In Fright has been in the streaming backlog for a couple years now, so when @arrowvideo.bsky.social released the 4K I felt like it was a sign. Will the Aussies uphold their undefeated streak?

I couldn't resist tinkering with the movie poster ;-)

Starting tomorrow and every day throughout October, we'll be recommending a folk horror film from the FolknHell.com archive to put you in a suitably spooky mood. #folknhell31

Kuroneko is a brilliant feminist ghost story that really manages to go so freaking hard in terms of how it shows the brutal consequences of what comes with violence and their serious effects on us, but it also critiques upon the issues of sexual violence and systemic oppression through arrogance.

She's back. 30 years gone and the Rose of Nevada sits in the harbour. A dying Cornish village gets redemption. But the sea takes a price. Wistful, damp, quietly merciless. FolknHell trades a trip on the Rose of Nevada www.folknhell.com/rose-of-nevada-re…

There are plenty of folk horrors in more urban settings. Candyman is probably the best example.

I can't decide whether it's aged well. It was always about as in your face as a film can get. A pleasure - possibly a guilty one ;-)

Our FolknHell watchlist (with where you can watch them) of folk horror films by decade has reached the 1980s. Admittedly not the finest decade for folk horror, but with gems like Outcasts and Lair of the White Worm, there's plenty to get your teeth into www.folknhell.com/blog/a-folkn...

The vinyl release of the soundtrack came with a decent sized poster of it

Thank you Michael. We're huge fans of Jenkin's work

It's so beautiful there but I don't think I could ever live there again. Cornwall is not remotely like it was when I was a kid. The problems Jenkin portrays so well are all too real

Anyway, postie's just been. Double Date is an okay slasher comedy, but the soundtrack by Goat is absolutely superb

A FolknHell watchlist: Pre-1970 — Folk'n'Hell

... and I'm slowly going back through the FolknHell blog, adding the "where to watch" feature to previous articles. I've just enabled the links on our pre-1970 list of folk horror films. So if you're burning to know where you can watch Haxan (1922), we can help! www.folknhell.com/blog/the-fol...

Folk horror movies existed long before the genre earned its name. FolknHell's mission is to watch and review every film on our (very) long watchlist.

We absolutely would. Thanks Lee

If you do get around to listening to the podcast please drop me a line. We're always on the lookout for special guests ;-)

It started out as a bit of fun but it's grown into something of an obsession. But what a list! I'm now trying to hunt down everything that survives - thankfully that's most of it. Thanks for all your suggestions so far. I'll gratefully take more when you have the time and inclination ;-)

We've added a new feature to folknhell.com - Where to watch. No matter where in the world you are, this handy gizmo will tell you what streaming services are playing each of the films we cover on the podcast. Because we want you to enjoy the films we enjoy ;-) www.folknhell.com/where-to-watch

Oh how wonderful! I'm going to have fun with that. Subscribed to the podcast

Many thanks, Jon. Have fixed those

Thank you! I knew I'd done that but got distracted and then hit save. I'll fix it now

Netherwood is well worth a read if you're a folk horror fan.

I don't think I've watched The Inheiritance. I remember my parents banning me from watching Shadows because the opening sequence scared the bejesus out of me. I have whisky and an evening to myself tonight. So that's going to happen

You have Robin Redbreast and A Photograph, but there was third film in that loose trilogy - a drama called Dark Secret released in 1981. BFI have it avaliable to watch in their rooms.

Oh my goodness! Thank you. My office is near the BFI so I'm going to book a watch

020

Oh my! Well, of course I forgot The Road - my holy grail of lost telly. But I had no idea about Witch Hunt. Thank you!

These are gold. Thank you! Updating the list now. We're going to do a dive into TV folk horror for the podcast in the coming months. Starting with Robin Redbreast
