Fungus amongus - "Cold Storage" horror review

Rachel sits down with Canadian Director Simon Glassman to discuss his surrealistic, cosmic horror comedy Buffet Infinity. A profoundly original film that weaves millennial nostalgia for local cable commercials into a terrifying and hilarious battle over business and the fate of reality itself. The film hits streaming May 8th, 2026 after a small theatrical run. Topics covered include the cosmic horror of AI, why he kept the full movie from the cast until it was released, and why “Buffet Infinity” scratches that conspiratorial itch without all of the baggage. Plus, what Glassman is up to next. “Buffet Infinity” is a Canadian satirical comedy horror film, directed by Simon Glassman. A satire of consumerism inspired by Second City Television and told entirely through mock television commercials instead of conventional narrative, the film centres on the fictional Westridge County in Alberta, where two restaurants are fighting each other for dominance, spawning cults and sinkholes and other apocalyptic consequences Support Bloody Good Horror, gain live stream access, join our Slack and get the entire back catalog by visiting us at: https://www.patreon.com/bloodygoodhorror BGH on social media https://www.instagram.com/bloodygoodhorror/ https://www.threads.com/@bloodygoodhorror Learn more about your ad choices.

This week, the BGH gang dives into the meta slasher “Faces of Death” (2026)—a surprisingly entertaining meditation on online violence and its consumption. Inspired by one of the most notorious shockumentaries ever made, this modern horror film explores the blurred line between reality and exploitation.   Along the way, the crew breaks down why Dacre Montgomery's generic handsomeness is actually terrifying, explores the hosts and live viewers experiences with the original shocker, and discusses why content moderation is the scariest job in America. Then things get spicy when Rachel brings up the AI-generated Val Kilmer film nobody asked for. “Faces of Death” is a 2026 American horror film and a reimagining of the infamous 1978 film of the same name. Directed by Daniel Goldhaber (Cam) and co-written with Isa Mazzei (Cam), it stars Barbie Ferreira, Dacre Montgomery, Josie Totah, Aaron Holliday, Jermaine Fowler, and Charli XCX.
