"Hellions" and "Local God" Reviewed for "Horror News Radio" podcast

This week's episode of Horror News Radio has just dropped, and it features my reviews for two of my favorite horror films so far this year, both of which I caught at BiFan: Hellions (above photo), which is Canadian director Bruce McDonald's first horror film since Pontypool, and Local God, Uruguayan director Gustavo Hernandez's follow-up to La Casa Muda (The Silent House). Doc Rotten and the Grue Crew weigh in on Sinister 2, the premiere episode of Fear the Walking Dead, and horror news of the week. It's always a fun listen, so . . . enjoy!
