It's that time of the year again, August bank holiday has just gone, so it can only mean one thing - Frightfest.

Rob is joined by Kat (Hollywood News), Mike (Autistic Guide to Horror), Mal (Twitter) and Sarah (Twitter) to discuss their highlights of the, now 25 year old, Horror Film Festival. Among others, they discussed the festival's darling, Strange Darling, The Dead Thing, Generation Terror, Shelby Oaks and Much More. We also measure up whether this was a good year for the event, as well as any advice for anyone who has never been to a horror festival before - like, say a certain podcast host who lives in the remote badlands of North Yorkshire. Wonder who that could be?

Next time it's back to service as usual as we finish off Series 3 with another look at Kiyoshi Kurosawa, albeit from the non-horror end of his huge back-catalogue.

This week on the Uncut Network we have another Actors Episode on our hands, another legend too with Lauren Bacall.

To discuss this star actor and legend, Rob is joined by Graham (Pop Screen), Vincent (Invasion of the Poddy People) and Jimmy (Filmmaker) to discuss a triple bill in the shape of Key Largo, Written on the Wind, and Jonathan Glazer's Birth. That last one is a funny old title when you frame it like that.

Along the way we discuss classic Melodrama's, Jazz, New Hollywood, and the deep themes and emotions that lie ready to be experienced in this very varied triple bill. There's also a pretty great anecdote or two.

If you like the podcast, consider supporting us on PATREON for all manner of extra goodies, from article series to podcasts and more. Our spin off show, Uncut from the Video Aisle is on a development sabbatical but stay tuned on our socials for more news - @Uncutrobcast.

This time on Uncut we are heading to Classic Era Hollywood with one of the great movie stars, Gregory Peck.

Rob is joined by Graham (Pop Screen), Clotilde (Twitter), and Aidan (LB) to talk about Gregory Peck through three different eras of his illustrious career. We start off in the 1940s and Alfred Hitchcock, with 1945’s Spellbound, co-starring Ingrid Bergman. Then we head off to the 1960s for his most famous movie, the 1962 adaptation of Harper Lee’s To Kill A Mockingbird. And then we finished it off in the 1970s, with his other famous turn in 1976’s legendary horror classic, The Omen from Richard Donner.

We also find room to talk about Salvadore Dali, Depictions of Racism, Bad Dogs, and much, much more, including some other Peck movies you should check out.

If you liked this episode, consider supporting us over on Patreon. Where you can get all manner of articles about Doctor Who, X-Files and Red Dwarf, as well as movies from Asia - this month it was my turn and I talked about Kiyoshi Kurosawa’s Sweet Home. There’s also podcasts, including a bonus episode of our sister podcast, Pop Screen, and the monthly catch-up episode, Last Night. In which, cleverly, it’s released on the last day of the month and we talk about what we’ve been watching. Uncut from the Video Aisle, this podcast's spin-off, is currently on a development sabbatical. Check things out over there for developments, as soon as they drop.

Until next time, thanks for listening!
