We delve into Steven Soderbergh's innovative horror film, Presence . Shot entirely from the perspective of a supernatural entity, the film offers a unique take on the haunted house genre. We explore the narrative's effectiveness, the performances of Lucy Liu and the supporting cast, and Soderbergh's directorial choices. Does this experimental approach breathe new life into horror storytelling, or does it leave viewers feeling disconnected? Join us as we discuss the film's strengths, weaknesses, and its place in modern horror cinema.

The Last Voyage of the Demeter (2023) - ”Boats ’N Bros”

Vampire January Part 5: The Final Bite
In this episode of Horror Hour with the Hanna's, we climb aboard The Last Voyage of the Demeter (2023) and dissect the highs and lows of this ambitious horror film. Directed by André Øvredal, the movie expands on Bram Stoker’s infamous chapter, chronicling the doomed crew of the Demeter as they transport Dracula across the sea.
The film boasts a haunting setting but does its slow pace and predictable storytelling drag it down? We examine whether this high-seas horror makes the most of its atmospheric premise or if it’s more bark than bite.
Tune in as we break down the scares, the storytelling, and whether The Last Voyage of the Demeter adds anything new to the long legacy of Dracula adaptations—or if it just treads water.

From Dusk Till Dawn (1996) - ”A Cinematic Feet”

We take a bite out of the cult classic From Dusk Till Dawn (1996), directed by Robert Rodriguez and written by Quentin Tarantino. What starts as a gritty crime thriller quickly morphs into a bloody vampire showdown, making it one of the most unpredictable genre mashups in cinematic history.
We discuss George Clooney and Quentin Tarantino as the Gecko brothers, Salma Hayek’s unforgettable (and serpentine) performance, and the film’s wild tonal shift that caught audiences completely off guard.
Is From Dusk Till Dawn a chaotic masterpiece or just a fun B-movie with big names? Tune in as we break down the film’s twists, turns, and blood-soaked brilliance.

2024 Mini Reviews (Strange Darling, Exhuma, It’s What’s Inside)

In this episode of Horror Hour with the Hanna's, we critically examine three of 2024’s most talked-about limited-release horror films: Strange Darling, Exhuma, and It’s What’s Inside. Are these movies delivering fresh scares, or do they fall victim to overhyped ambition?
Strange Darling : This romantic-slasher hybrid’s nonlinear storytelling has earned praise for its bold risks, but we dive into whether its twists overshadow character development and emotional depth.
Exhuma: A supernatural horror story with ancient curses and personal demons. While its eerie visuals stand out, does the film’s slow pacing and lack of narrative clarity undermine its tension?
It’s What’s Inside: Mixing sci-fi horror with biting social commentary, this film explores vanity, identity, and survival. But does it overextend itself, leaving some themes undercooked?
Join us as we separate the genuinely terrifying from the underwhelming, exploring what these films bring to the genre and where they miss the mark. If you’re wondering which ones to watch—or skip—we’ve got you covered.
Time Stamps:
Strang Darling: 4:25 - 16:20
Exhuma: 17:10 - 29:40
It's What's Inside: 29:40 - 41:50
