Show Notes
New Year’s resolutions hit everyone differently. Some people vow to slim down, shake up their love life, chase a new career, or finally finish that long‑abandoned project. Others aim for something a little more fun. Co‑host Mike admitted he’s been sitting on a mountain of genre films he’s never seen, so we figured—why not turn that into our annual tradition? Each co‑host picked a genre title they’d always meant to watch, dove in, and came back ready to talk about it.
This year’s cinematic spread is a wild one: Lucio Fulci’s 1981 Lovecraft‑soaked nightmare The HOUSE BY THE CEMETERY, the 2015 supernatural noir HE NEVER DIED, the 2025 festival‑favorite EDGAR ALLEN POE’S THE OVAL PORTRAIT, HBO Max’s electrifying STRANGER THINGS Season 4, and the scrappy, sci‑fi‑comedy debut from John Carpenter and Dan O’Bannon, DARK STAR.
As we kick off another year of deep dives and dark delights, Dark Discussions wishes all our listeners a fantastic 2026. A special shout‑out goes to our Patreon supporters—new faces and longtime friends alike. We’d love to hear which unseen films you’re planning to tackle this year.
