DBL#14'Folk Horror revival'w/ Chay Lawrence - a podcast by Pete Burn

DBL#14: The episode here is a look at film, more specifically the 'Folk Horror' movie genre with Chay Lawrence who played in the bands Bob Tilton, Tribute and Coffin Pricks.

All of his musical life is discussed at length in Episode #9 if you want to hear more about his background. He is also a big fan of the horror genre and October is a good month to discuss this stuff. 'Folk Horror' is usually based around 3 famous Hammer films: Wicker man,  Blood on Satan's claw and Witchfinder general. We take things from there and end up with some unusual twists and turns into the 'Found Footage' genre with Hollow (2011), Borderlands (2013) & Crone Wood (2016).

The opportunity to talk about films like this hadn't really arisen until Chay and I talked about things more recently and realised our mutual love for the horror genre. There will hopefully be a more varied output as of this episode because the initial intent a year ago was to be more like a magazine but that has unfortunately drifted.
