Welcome to this podcast series from The Super Network with Podcasters Of Horror! This podcast is all about horror anthologies from television and films and it began with a retrospective on Mick Garris’ Masters Of Horror series and continued on with looking Fear Itself, with bonus episodes on Goosebumps and Freddy’s Nightmares.
Your hosts ‘Super’ Marcey Papandrea and ‘The Terrible Australian’ Bede Jermyn both here and they are headed back to the original series of The Twilight Zone, with a deep dive discussion on two episodes from the series. Each co-host picked an episode to discuss, both episodes are ones they haven’t seen before and both episodes had an inspiration on Jordan Peele with his first two films Get Out (2017) and Us (2019) with the two episodes being ‘Mirror Image‘ and ‘The Trade-Ins‘! What did Super Marcey and Bede think of their picks? Listen in and find out!
