    Cutting Deep into Horror | Bitter Feast (2010) — Dark Foodie Horror, Chef Revenge & Thanksgiving Scares
    2025/11/14
    This week on Cutting Deep into Horror, hosts Henrique Couto & Rachael Redolfi dive into Bitter Feast (2010)—a brutally underrated foodie horror thriller perfect for the Thanksgiving season. When a celebrity chef snaps after a vicious review, a simple cooking critique becomes a nightmarish showdown of revenge, obsession, and culinary torture.

    We break down why Bitter Feast has become a cult favorite for fans of chef horror, creative captivity stories, and Thanksgiving-adjacent genre films, and how its themes of burnout, public shaming, and internet criticism feel even more relevant today. From the dark humor to the escalating violence, this is a dish best served terrifying.

    We also explore its place in 2010s indie horror, the performances that make the tension simmer, and why this might be one of the most overlooked movies to add to your late-November watchlist.

    )Inside this episode:
    • The twisted charm of foodie horror and why it explodes during Thanksgiving
    • Chef vs. critic psychology and why neither character is truly innocent
    • How the film uses cooking challenges as weapons
    • Burnout, humiliation, and the horror of being torn apart online
    • Bitter Feast’s place in cult indie horror and why it deserves reevaluation
    • How food, fear, and obsession collide in unforgettable ways

  • Terrifying & True | Dark Realities of the First Thanksgiving: Survival, Plague, and a Fragile Peace

    Terrifying & True | Dark Realities of the First Thanksgiving: Survival, Plague, and a Fragile Peace
    2025/11/10
    The First Thanksgiving wasn’t a cheerful myth—it was born from starvation, epidemic, and uneasy diplomacybetween the Wampanoag and the Pilgrims at Plymouth in 1620–1621. In this Terrifying & True deep-dive, we peel back comforting legend to confront the Great Dying, the stark winter that followed the Mayflower landfall, and the fragile accord brokered through Samoset, Squanto, and Massasoit. We unpack the mutual-defense treaty, the practical lifelines of corn, fish, and eels, the political subtext of the harvest feast, and the violence that erupted at Wessagusset—shattering illusions of lasting peace and exposing the cost paid by the people who were already here.
    Inside this episode:
    • Before the feast: The Great Dying, empty villages, and a winter of hunger.
    • First contact: Samoset’s greeting, Squanto’s lifesaving know-how, and Massasoit’s calculus.
    • Terms of survival: The treaty, visits, disarmament, and why both sides accepted the risk.
    • The three-day “thanksgiving”: Hunting, politics, and grief at the same table.
    • Wessagusset turns deadly: Tension, betrayal, and brutal spectacle on a palisade.
    • Myth vs. memory: How a story of survival became a national legend—and what it leaves out.
      If you want true history—uncomfortable, meticulously told, and eerily human—this is the real story behind the holiday. We’re telling that story tonight.

  • Unknown Broadcast | Graves & Revenants: Classic Horror Stories of Plague, Vengeance, and the Unquiet Dead

    Unknown Broadcast | Graves & Revenants: Classic Horror Stories of Plague, Vengeance, and the Unquiet Dead
    2025/11/09
    In this episode of Mystery Theater, we delve into the sinister world crafted by Wilkie Collins, exploring a chilling tale titled "Shadows from the Grave." The story is introduced by our host, Hyman Brown, who sets the stage for an intriguing exploration of mortality and the supernatural. We meet Xavier Yardley Zenith, a young photographer who inherits a mysterious estate from his Uncle George, who ominously proclaims that he will die within a week.

    Uncle George's peculiar insistence on guarding his mausoleum raises the stakes as Xavier learns about the family secrets buried within the estate. As Xavier navigates his new life, the narrative takes a dark turn, unraveling the complexities of his uncle's death, underscored by a mysterious ghostly presence demanding resolution. The episode unfolds through Xavier's nightmarish visions of his uncle's ghost, urging him to seek a blessing for his unblessed grave, raising questions of guilt, a possible murder, and supernatural repercussions of familial ties.

    The atmospheric richness of the storytelling becomes palpable as we witness Xavier's struggle against unseen forces that challenge his understanding of reality. Throughout the episode, the tension escalates with every check on the mausoleum’s locks and as Xavier grapples with his wife Catherine’s growing distrust of the ancestral legacy that seems to haunt them. The listener is drawn into the murky depths of human emotions, fear of the unknown, and the morality entwined with death.


    Unknown Broadcast slips in with old-time radio horror, classic OTR ghost stories, and radio suspense, my dear. Draw closer—just enough to hear the dirt breathe.
    • 🕯️ Shadows from the Grave — A mausoleum sealed, a blessing demanded, a promise the living dare not break. The night keeps the ledger; the grave keeps the pen.
    • 🔥 Funeral Fires — Fever runs ahead of mercy, and smoke writes the verdict in the sky. When the torches rise, even the righteous learn to whisper.
    • ⚰️ Make Ready My Grave — A name etched before the heart stops beating. Some holes in the earth are not dug for bodies, but for secrets.
    • 🪦 No Grave Can Hold Me — Tracks hum, timetables tick, and the dead make their appointments—precise, punctual, inevitable.

    Lean close, my dear. This is where classic OTR horror stories keep walking and Unknown Broadcast pretends not to notice.

    2025/11/07
    Arts & culture reporter Andrew Shearer (USA TODAY Network) sits down with filmmaker and creator Henrique Couto for a candid, anniversary deep-dive into how Weekly Spooky grew from a Halloween 2019 launch into a must-hear horror podcast.

Plus: how new segments like Terrifying & True and This Week in Horror History expanded the universe while keeping fans coming back.

    If you love indie storytelling, horror audio, and nuts-and-bolts talk about audience growth, monetization, and creative endurance, this conversation is your roadmap—hosted by Andrew Shearer and centered on six years of Weekly Spooky’s scares, stumbles, and successes.
