Criterion Now – Episode 99 – Horror Films, January 2020 Announcements

Dave Eves joins again, and this time we take a detour and discuss horror films that are both in and out of the Criterion Collection. With it being October, we both committed to watch horror films throughout the month in order to get in the spirit of Halloween. We discuss a lot of the titles that we saw. We also spend some time discussing Criterion news, including a brief reaction to the Criterion January 2020 announcements, the upcoming Godzilla set, Bamboozled, UHD, and more.

I am a somewhat educated Criterion dork, with a History and Film Studies bachelor's degree and plenty of self-education over the years. My tastes are all over the map. Probably my favorite is 1930s French Poetic Realism, but I like everything from noir, to animation, to horror, westerns, and modern film. Usually I prefer film that challenges and requires something of the viewer.
