Episode 8: Final Girls Berlin Film Festival (Part 1)

In Episode 8 of The HD Movie Podcast, Hayley and Darren head to Berlin - in a virtual sense, of course, as they're both following the current lockdown rules - to begin their coverage of the Final Girls Film Festival!

This time out, our intrepid hosts take a look at the Cyber Horror short film block called It's Coming From The Screen, which includes:

SPYGLASS (dir. J. Prado)

DON'T TEXT BACK (dir. Kaye Adelaide, Mariel Sharpe)

FRAGILE.COM (dir. Alison-Eve Hammersley)

SWIPE UP, VIVIAN! (dir. Hannah Welever)

KALLEY'S LAST REVIEW (dir. Julia Bailey Johnson)

After this, a couple of features take centre stage. THE STYLIST is Jill Gevargizian's feature-length version of her 2016 short. Darren has previously talked about this movie in Episode 2 but has another viewing of it changed his mind any? And what will first-time viewer Hayley think?

Rounding off this first part of two is FELLWECHSELZEIT (aka TIME OF MOULTING), a German psychological drama of the slow-burn variety. Did this provoke and disturb our presenters? You'll just have to listen if you want to find out!
