Hi! We are Dirt Dogs and we are SHALLOW, and also GROUNDed. Which is great news, as this week’s Gem Hunt selection is a lil’ ripper from 2004 that goes by the name of Shallow Ground. It’s mostly about a very bloody nude boy and some dumb cops (I guess?). Join us as we dive on in- but watch out- this ground is hella shallow! How can GROUND even BE shallow, dear listener? Tune in to find out.

Welcome back to Gemhunt! What are we watching this week? Well, it’s nun-ya business. Just kidding, this week we’re discussing The Killer Nun (1979), an infamous nunsplotation film loosely based on a true story. What is up with us and nuns? Are we being indoctrinated by Catholicism? Maybe we’re slowly but surely turning into a religious, Catholic-leaning family. Tune in and find out.

The Dirt Dog fam got all Catholic-y on this week’s episode, talking about the relatively new Canadian film, The Rightgeous (2021), from first-time writer / director Mark O’Brien. The fact that we recorded on Easter (a holiday we do not care about) was a complete accident. Turns out all three of us are quite dumb when it comes to Catholicism, and religion and general.. But we give it the old college try. Stick around for a special time segment about horror mockumentaries.

We’re still here, friends! Join us for another installment of Gem Hunt. Parental sex! Powerful caves! Throat ripping! Mexico! It’s 2012’s Here Comes the Devil ¡Be there and/or ser cuadrada!

The dirt dog fam veers way off the beaten path and back into comedy territory with this week’s selection: the 1990 cult film Meet the Applegates, directed by Michael Lehmann, who also brought you the classic dark comedy Heathers. Grab your high school text book, flip to the satire section, and get ready to ridicule suburban consumerism. We also bring back the obligatory “is this a horror film?” game. Yay America!

We’re slithering toward spring, and what better way to prepare for the change of seasons than by screening a good ol’ pregnancy-horror film featuring a primordial psychic fetus and loads of blood. Join the Dirt Dog family for a discussion of Alain Robak’s 1990 French gore-fest Baby Blood. Believe or not, there are a lot of god damn horror films about pregnancy out there. We talk about that, and other things too, like The Chair Company and Twin Peaks.. Check it out y’all.

This week on Gem Hunt, your 3hree favorite dirt dogs have a little fun with teenage witchcraft, Mr. Ron Perlman, and the confounding use of numbers in movie titles! That’s right- it’s 2006’s 5ive Girls! Walk through the bathroom wall with us to see if this one lands firmly in the toilet, OR manages to achieve gem status.

Alright dorks, on this week’s episode of gem hunt we’re going dumpster diving! Oh wait, fuck.. wrong movie. Join us this week as we venture to the frontier to discuss Eyes of Fire (1983). It's our first in depth discussion of Folk Horror. Be there or be square losers.
