  • Ginger Snaps (Podcast/Discussion)
    2025/02/19
    This week we have a look at the 2000 horror film GingerSnaps. This is Episode #454!
    Ginger Snaps is a 2000 Canadian supernatural horror film directed by John Fawcett and written by Karen Walton, from a story they jointly developed. The film stars Emily Perkins and Katharine Isabelle as Brigitte and Ginger Fitzgerald, two morbid teenage sisters whose relationship is tested when Ginger (who has started her period for the first time) is attacked and bitten by an unknown animal, and then later, during the next full moon, slowly starts to transform into a werewolf. The supporting cast features Kris Lemche, Jesse Moss, Danielle Hampton, John Bourgeois, Peter Keleghan, and Mimi Rogers.Ginger Snaps received a limited theatrical release in May 2001. Despite modest box office receipts, the film was a critical success. It has since amassed a cult following and has been reexamined for its feminist themes. It was followed by a sequel, Ginger Snaps 2: Unleashed, and a prequel, Ginger Snaps Back: The Beginning, which were filmed back-to-back and both released in 2004.

  • Castle Talk: Intern Zeek interview Ty Drago, author of ST. DAMNED
    2025/02/16
    Tonight, Castle Bridge Media intern Zeek Ortiz interviews Ty Drago, author of the novel ST. DAMNED from Castle Bridge Media.
    ABOUT THE BOOK
    “ST. DAMNED is a hell of a book. It’s a devious collision of raw horror and existential weirdness. Highly recommended!” -–Jonathan Maberry, NY Times bestselling author of NecroTek and The Dragon in Winter

    Five years ago, paranormal researcher Dr. Mia Lakatos was the sole survivor of an ill-conceived reality TV investigation of St. Damien’s Lutheran Church in Camden, New Jersey, a bloody encounter that destroyed her reputation and poisoned her life.
    Now, out of the blue, the government has asked for her help. A vicious Columbian drug czar will be attending a key underworld summit across the street from the famous haunted church. The FBI is planning a stakeout inside St. Damien’s, and they need Mia along for her expertise. But nothing, absolutely nothing, will convince Mia to re-enter that hellish place, except maybe a cryptic decades-old message that might hold the key to cleansing “St. Damned” and finally freeing the scores of souls who are trapped there.
    Suddenly, Mia Lakatos finds herself returning to the most dangerous haunted site on Earth to face down the deranged ghost of an infamous serial killer whose iron will rules over those innocent spirits in his sway. But the road to redemption is paved in blood—including, quite possibly, her own.
