00:14:55 – In Fear (2014) 
This week the grue-crew take a look at the time film in the Anchor Bay Blu-Ray Prize Pack, In Fear. Jeremy Lovering directs the highly praised horror thriller starring Iain De Caestecker (Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.), Alice Englert (Beautiful Creatures) and Allen Leech (Downton Abbey). But, the well-intention-ed positive reviews, even from HorrorNews.Net itself, do not phase the HNR hosts' reaction to the film.

But, participate in the Prize Pack below for the opportunity to see the film for  yourself.

 

00:41:40 – Top 5 Claustrophobic Horror Movies 
Thomas Mariani leaps of the claustrophobic elements of In Fear to examine 5 horror films that excel in exploring the terror of small places and being trapped in enclosed places. Thomas looks to Santos and Doc to elaborate on his Top 5 Claustrophobic Horror Movie list.

 

  1. Cube (1997) - dir. Vincenzo Natali 
  2. Buried (2010) - dir. Rodrigo Cortes

01:01:50 - Horror News of the Week for 03/17/2014
Doc Rotten steps in for the under-the-weather Dave Dre her to bring the Horror News of the Week. American Horror Story season 4 is confirmed to be about a carnival, at least in part. This week's The Walking Dead is kicking up controversy and praise on social media outlets with Doc suggesting that "I forgive you" has never had such weight on genre television. In Fear director Jeremy Lovering is set to be in charge of the remake of the 1980 ghost story classic, The Changeling. The short list for directors of Marvel's Dr. Strange film are rumored to be Mark Andrews (Brave), Jonathan Levine (Warm Bodies, All the Boys Love Mandy Lane), and Scott Derrickson (Sinister, The Exorcism of Emily Rose). Diabolique Magazine is urging readers and Hammer fans to sign a petition requesting Warner Brothers to release their classic Hammer horror titles on Blu-ray.
