Episode Description

We bid you welcome to the MODERN HORROR PODCAST.

Hosted by authors A. J. Black and Hugh McStay, Modern Horror focuses on horror cinema (and sometimes TV) from 2010 onwards, examining the best, worst, biggest and most obscure horror pictures from around the world.

With Tony indulging in his pre-Christmas hibernation cycle, Hugh and Dan Owen are joined this week by another magnificent Loser, podcaster and critic Kat Hughes.

Our intrepid trio put their wits together to discuss the final two episodes of It: Welcome to Derry where we discover the importance of Bob Gray to our interdimensional monster (no, not Dan Owen), witness a horrific racist atrocity, discuss the US Army’s frankly insane masterplan and wax lyrical about an astonishing final instalment that may rank as one of the best hours of television this year...
