Episode 73: Once Upon a Cabin in the Woods... Again
August 22, 2018 / Dawn Humphrey
It's time again, for Dawn and Jen to go on a journey of re-discovery through one of horror's most beloved franchises: The Evil Dead. After three movies and over thirty years, daring filmmaker Fede Álvarez does the unthinkable and helms a remake*, daring the fates to strike him down.
...and no one was more surprised than your hosts that he actually pulled it off.
Taking a new cast, new characters, and a new script into the great wilds of a New Zealand set, Álvarez managed to capture the spirit of the original, chucking the yuks-yuks and focusing on the story of five young people caught in the grips of terror. With a returned focus on practical gore, what results might not have been gonzo box office success, but it was a more than worthy edition to the Evil Dead series.
This episode is the fourth and final in a series that will cover all three Evil Dead movies and the 2013 remake.

*Yes, we know it's often described as a successor/sequel rather than a remake. But it functions as a remake and that's what we're sticking to.

Fantastic Fest 2016 Ash vs Evil Dead: The Interviews
October 17, 2016 / Dawn Humphrey
It's about damn time.
With the second season of Ash vs Evil Dead airing, the Women In Caskets are happier than Ash in Jacksonville to bring you the interviews we conducted at Fantastic Fest this year.
To say we had a blast would be an understatement.
Listen to Dawn and Jen's take on the new season, or skip right to the interviews after the 22-minute mark.
Thanks to all the wonderful people at Starz, Fantastic Fest and Fons PR for making this happen for us, and of course, a humongous debt is owed to Bruce Campbell, Dana DeLorenzo, Ray Santiago and Lee Majors for their time.
NOTE: The rooms we were recording in were not ideal, so the sound quality on the interviews is not up to our usual standards. The fault is all ours.
