Flick Fix- Speak No Evil and Häxan (1922)- 10/09/2024

It's the spooky month of October, and Austin brings in two creepy films to discuss. First is the suspenseful psychological thriller Speak No Evil, which is equal parts unsettling and intriguing. Austin reviews the film and delves into what makes this American remake both compelling and controversial. Then, we’re diving into one of the most unique and influential horror films of all time—Häxan. Part documentary, part nightmarish reenactment, this 1922 classic takes us on a dark journey through witchcraft, superstition, and the human psyche. Austin explores how this century-old film pushed boundaries, shaped the horror genre, and still manages to leave a haunting mark today. If you think horror is all about jump scares, you’re in for a wild ride!
