We Own the Dark Episode 04 goes dark…very dark. With Jason’s choice, Tim Blake Nelson’s criminally underseen and utterly soul-crushing masterpiece Eye of God (1997), we discuss the value of patience within filmmaking and character-building in the genre world. Jerry was inspired by this first-time watch to continue the small-town train with the 2001 Larry Clark true-crime thriller, Bully. Both films feature outstanding performances and grim looks at the dangers of both religious fervor and mob mentality.

We Own the Dark Episode 03 explores sleazy, grimy, family debauchery as we delve into two completely different yet surprisingly complementary films. Jerry chooses Devereux Milburn’s Honeydew (2020), to which Jason pairs the first horror film ever screened at Sundance Film Festival, Wrye Martin and Barry Poltermann’s Aswang – aka The Unearthing (1994).

In Episode 02 We Own the Dark explores childhood horrors and nightmares come to life! Jason chose Romano Scavolini's Nightmares In A Damaged Brain (1981), a first and absolutely wild watch for Jerry, who in turn paired The Innocents, the 2022 Norwegian supernatural horror film from director Eskil Vogt.
