TorTR - 2024 Year End Special

TorTR - 2024 Year End Special

We continue a long-standing tradition of revisiting the films we discussed the previous year. 2024 was one of the most solid years in film since we started doing this show over 12 years ago. We experienced tense theological discussions, body horror the likes we have not seen before, the dead coming back to life to teach us how we should live, a séance on life television, hardcore tub licking, depressing old eastern European life, action-packed monkey men, and plenty of throwback 80s goth aesthetic with truly likeable characters! We individually attempt to distill all that into a somewhat coherent list of 13 films that we will combine with our Patreon Supporters’ lists to make a master list for the show. To find out which film got the coveted top spot on the list, you’ll need to tune in! So grab your post-it notes to scrawl a list of films on, dance naked around someone else’s house like you owned the place, and strap on for the world’s most dangerous year end show!
