| 1/29/26 | ![]() IFWT #146 - Reservoir Dogs (1992) [ft. Phillip Duke of Making Tarantino pod] | Amazingly this is the podcast's first dive into the works of Quentin Tarantino - and we're starting right at the beginning with his explosive 1992 debut Reservoir Dogs . A Heist film that doesn't show the heist. Filled with expletives and pop-culture references, Reservoir Dogs would encapsulate the work Tarantino would go on to make. And lucky for you and I, Phillip Duke, host of the Making Tarantino podcast is here to wax lyrical, trade stories and decipher where Reservoir Dogs sits in his filmography. You can find Making Tarantino on X @MakingTarantino and Instagram @makingtarantinothepodcast | — | ||||||
| 1/22/26 | ![]() IFWT #145 - Depraved (2019) / Blackout (2023) [ft. Rolo Tony] | friend of the podcast Rolo Tony (@PoorOldRoloTony) is back, and this time he's here to conclude our series diving into the works of New York auteur Larry Fessenden. For the finale we're wrapping up in style, with a creature feature double-feature! In discussion are Fessenden's hitherto films, 2019's modern retelling of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, Depraved, and the Wolf Man story of Blackout. We get into the themes, the politics, the elements that ran through Fessenden's work, including certain complimentary elements between both Depraved and Blackout, and we even riff on Fessenden's future monster mash film! | — | ||||||
| 1/15/26 | ![]() IFWT #144 - The Correction Unit (2025) [ft. dir. Derry Shillitto] | *This ep contains NO MAJOR SPOILERS*We kick of 2026 welcoming Nottingham-based director Derry Shillitto on the podcast - a young filmmaker who has just released his debut feature film The Correction Unit. After spending his formative years with a plethora of jobs in the film industry - costume design and music video production for the likes of Sleaford Mods, being but a couple - Derry has finally dropped a feature film. The Correction Unit takes place in a tangible near-future where an AI institute promises to reform a group of juvenile offenders into the best and most productive versions of themselves. Straddling the line between Roget Corman low-budget ingenuity and class polemics akin to Ken Loach and The Angry Young Men, The Correction Unit showcases the young talent of a crop of up-and-comers and first timers, alongside the voicing talent of global star Bella Ramsey, who returned to her Nottingham roots to feature in Shillito's warning call to society - with heavy doses of action, of course. Because this film is new as of this recording and upload, we veer away from major spoilers and instead contextualise the film within the world it takes place, the themes that run through it and the importance of working class representation in the arts, which has sadly halved in the UK since the 1970s. So if you've seen the film already, great!, I hope this episode can act as a companion, and if you haven't make sure to check out The Correction Unit which is currently streaming on Prime. | — | ||||||
| 12/24/25 | ![]() IFWT # 143 - A Christmas Carol (1984) [ft. Flixology 101, Scott West & Matt Rotman] | 2025 is coming to a close and so, as is tradition, it’s time we looked at a Christmas film. But because we’re all a bunch of misery grouches with no festive cheer whatsoever, it’s only right that we check out the film that can thaw even the stoniest of hearts: A Christmas Carol.With Wayne (not so) unfortunately unavailable for this one, our good friend Phil from Flixology 101 steps into the host chair, joined of course by IFWT stalwarts Matt Rotman and Scott West, with Liam arriving a bit later to complete the quirky quartet.A distinctly British film with a distinctly American actor in the lead, it’s one of many adaptations of the Dickens classic, and the chaps are here to talk about why it’s among the very best.Pour a big glass of your favourite drink, settle into your comfiest chair and prepare for a visit from the spirits of podcast past, present and yet to come. Merry Christmas everyone. | — | ||||||
| 12/18/25 | ![]() IFWT #142 - The Last Boy Scout (1991) [co-hosted by Flixology 101] | Time to get in an explosively festive mood with the Shane Black written, Tony Scott directed, Bruce Willis starring...The Last Boy Scout. With a tempestuous production that left all involved looking for the exit, the films stature as an exemplifier of the 90s has only grown. So join Liam and Phil as we give you details on the fall-outs, the bust-ups and bruised egos as we explore Tony Scott's sun-kissed action noir, The Last Boy Scout. Make sure to check out Flixology101.com, for musings on all your cult favourites. | — | ||||||
| 12/11/25 | ![]() IFWT #141 - Mandy (2018) [ft. Carmelita Valdez McKoy] | It’s been a long time since we talked about a Nicolas Cage film and we’re righting that wrong today by diving deep into the warped and beautiful insanity of Mandy. A love story, a revenge tale, a psychedelic trip. It’s all of these things and more, and with friend and previous guest Carmelita Valdez McKoy joining us, you know you’re going to be in a truly wild ride. We’ll chat about the setting, the characters, the stunning cinematography, the mood and atmosphere, the fascinating psychological dynamics as well as giving our thoughts on director Panos Cosmatos’ debut feature Beyond The Black Rainbow.Knock back some hard liquor and pick up the most impractical weapons you can find, because when In Film We Trust go down to the woods, your sure of a big surprise. | — | ||||||
| 12/4/25 | ![]() IFWT #140 - Lords of Chaos (2018) | *Lords of Chaos is erroneously referred to as Jonas Akerlund's directorial debut in this episode. Famed music video director Jonas Akerlund, turns his hand at feature length filmmaking with his directorial debut Lords of Chaos. Adapted from the controversial book of the same name, Akerlund's film charts the foundation of 'True Norwegian Black Metal' via Euronymous' pioneering band Mayhem, that would cross paths with the ever problematic Varg Vikerness. But Mayhem was a band like no other; whereas metal bands of the past had cultivated a dark and sinister image, Mayhem walked the walk - murders, church burnings and an image burned in perpetual infamy. So | — | ||||||
| 11/27/25 | ![]() IFWT #139 - We Await (1996) [ft. dir. Charles Pinion] | We’re rounding off our trilogy of shot on video movies from our good friend Charles Pinion. We’ve dealt with Twisted Issues, we’ve visited Red Spirit Lake, and today We Await the legendary Spirit Dive as we examine… well, We Await. A story of cannibal cults, mystical crystals and mind-altering green goo. It’s a trip that’s quite literally out of this world. Charles is here to tell us of the film’s conception, production and behind the scenes titbits. It’s the perfect way to wrap this trilogy up, as well as tease our next collaboration with Mr. Pinion. Watch this space folks!Get some of that good green goo in ya, and let’s go for a drive. A spirit drive. | — | ||||||
| 10/30/25 | ![]() IFWT #138 - The Blair Witch Project (1999) [Halloween special ft. Flixology 101] | It's Halloween! Which means we're all entitled to a good scare. Wayne is M.I.A, lost to the darkness of the forest, so our good friend, and official stand-in, Phil of Flixology 101 is sitting in the co-host chair alongside Liam. And Lucky for us we have a whole host of contributors (listed below) giving us their opinions on the cultural phenomenon that is The Blair Witch project. Cannibal Holocaust and The Mcpherson Tape both used found-footage to tell their story, but it was 1999's The Blair Witch Project that solidified the genre as a mainstay in the horror world, going on to major box office success that would breed generations of imitators. But while our feature presentation may be a dive into The Blair Witch Project, this is a Halloween special, after all, and given that that our co-host is from the United States, we have a lot of fun divulging in our Halloween stories growing up, and the differences each country has in regards to the rituals. Contributors include:Author Dan Epstein (@dockfidrych, Instagram)Author Scott West @ScottMWest, X)Ben Vargas and Nix of Cinema Shitshow ( @bensower, @NixEclips, @CinemaShitshow, X}Nikolai Adams (@filmizon, X)Shane Day ( @ShaneDa60900314, X)Marianne (@spiritedcretin, X)Matt Rotman (@bonkersasscin, X)Tim of Ghoulan Globin Theater (@GandgTheater, X) | — | ||||||
| 10/23/25 | ![]() IFWT #137 - Witchfinder General (1968) | Michael Reeves might not be a household name, with only 3 films in his severely truncated career. But the movies he directed demonstrated a real mastery of the cinematic art, and today we’re here to shed some light on his work by taking a deep dive into his final film: Witchfinder General.Detailing the heavily fictionalised account of one of the UK’s most infamous figures, Matthew Hopkins, a man for whom the task of witch finding was merely a shortcut to fame, fortune and unquestionable power, it stands today as on one of the ‘Unholy Trilogy’ of folk horror films, alongside The Wicker Man and The Blood On Satan’s Claw.Join us as we discuss this British classic, as well as chatting a little about Reeve’s other films. Sharpen the knives and light up the pyres, we’ve got some witches to find. | — | ||||||
| 10/16/25 | ![]() IFWT #136 - Beneath (2013) [ft. Rolo Tony] | Our pal Rolo Tony is back as we continue our dive into the works of Larry Fessenden, and for today's episode we're taking a look at easily Fessenden's most divisive film to date - the direct-to-Chiller, creature feature Beneath. Taking a relative battering by the critics of the time, and an equally poor audience reception, does Beneath deserve another look at? Does it retain Fessenden themes and concerns, which made his name in Underground USA horror landscape? Stay tuned as we dissect this film. | — | ||||||
| 10/9/25 | ![]() IFWT #135 - Night of the Demon (1980) [Phil DeGlass, Matt Rotman, Scott West] | The Bigfoot journey continues here at In Film We Trust as we welcome back Scott West, Phil DeGlass and Matt Rotman. Last week we travelled to upstate New York in search of a Yeti, now we’re in Northern California in search of the big hairy one himself: Bigfoot. Night Of The Demon impressed very few people back in the day, so we’re here to see whether or not its worthy of reappraisal. Is it cheap, exploitative trash or a work of unsung genius? There’s only 1 way to find out. Pack up the Econoline Van and lets get rolling! | — | ||||||
| 10/2/25 | ![]() IFWT #134 - Shriek Of The Mutilated (1974) [ft. Scott West, Matt Rotman, Phil DeGlass] | You may not know it, but here at In Film We Trust we’ve long been planning something special, something incredible, something truly extraordinary: A Bigfoot double bill with some of our previous guests! Ok it might not be earthshattering, but it’s fertile ground for some laughs, some fun analysis and a lot of behind-the-scenes factoids.So on that note we’re inviting our good friends Matt Rotman, Phil DeGlass and Scott West, who joined us last year to discuss Christmas Evil, to come back for back-to-back episodes, beginning with 1974’s Shriek Of The Mutilated. Does it feature Bigfoot? Well, sort of. Is it going to be a blast to discuss? You bet your ass it is! | — | ||||||
| 9/25/25 | ![]() IFWT #133 - Red Spirit Lake (1993) [ft. dir. Charles Pinion] | We welcome underground filmmaker Charles Pinion back to the show for part 2 of our dive into his transgressive, shot on video works. In part 1 we discussed the punk-splatter of Twisted Issues, and today we are discussing Red Spirit Lake - his second feature, and arguable his most narrative driven of his early work. In this episode we contextualise his the film within the period - his work at the counterculture skin rag Screw magazine, his friends in the Cinema of Transgression and the cross-pollination of their work, and we dive into the behind the scenes stories of Red Spirit Lake. | — | ||||||
| 9/18/25 | ![]() IFWT #132 - Wendigo(2001)/The Last Winter(2006) [ft Rolo Tony] | After a brief hiatus, we’ve returned to our rightful place in front of the mics. Some months ago, with Liam off saying hello to Dennis Hopper on a psychedelic tour of the stratosphere. Wayne welcomed our good friend Rolo Tony on to discuss Larry Fessenden’s 1997 Vampire film Habit. That was the first episode in a miniseries that continues today with Wendigo, a film set in the snow-covered wilderness of upstate New York, where a child’s imagination causes the line between reality and fantasy to blur.We discuss the Native American Wendigo legend and its place in the story, the films’ themes, its characters, setting and the divisive ending. Along the way we discuss another one of Fessenden’s films which featured the Wendigo: The Last Winter.Let the discussin’, dissectin’ and deep divin’ begin once again. | — | ||||||
