SPECIAL GUEST:
Mike (The Old SwitchAroo)

—————————-

Tremble is a horror podcast that cuts through hype to figure out what actually works, whether a movie is trying to scare you, make you laugh, or do both at once.

On this episode, Taylor is once again away, so Kurt and Steve are joined by special guest Mike from The Old SwitchAroo, a podcast revisiting older video games through fun discussion and fresh perspectives. Together they examine Alfred Hitchcock’s Frenzy, the legendary director’s penultimate film and his return to London for one of the darkest thrillers of his career. When a serial killer known as the Necktie Murderer terrorizes the city, an innocent man finds himself accused of the crimes while desperately trying to clear his name. Kurt, Steve, and Mike discuss Hitchcock’s return to murder mystery storytelling, the film’s surprisingly graphic violence for its era, and its blend of dark humor with mounting suspense. They also explore Barry Foster’s chilling performance, Hitchcock’s evolving filmmaking style, and why Frenzy has become one of the most underrated entries in his remarkable filmography.
