Podcasts by Wont Stay Dead
Won't Stay Dead is a podcast dedicated to the freaky and gloriously trashy world of horror, cult and exploitation cinema. Join the three of us as we wax lyrical, dissect and celebrate some of our favourite examples of subversive filmmaking.
To add a little inebriation to the proceedings, each episode we will be drinking booze that is in some way linked (albeit tenuously) to our main feature. So, we invite you to crack open a cold one, put your feet up and delve with us into the murky depths of movies that just won't stay dead...
