Liam brings up the phenomenon of loving a movie as a kid but being disappointed by it as an adult and how this movie avoids them. Justin talks about how the film also openly embraces every late 80’s cultural trope in addition to cop movie tropes. We discuss how the film is the quintessential “one in the morning on HBO back in the day” film. The film’s flirtation with the “LA at night”/neon slime subgenre is discussed. We talk about how the film is a rare example of a cop’s excessive actions is realistically depicted when a paramedic questions why a victim was shot fifteen times. Liam

HORROR BUSINESS Episode 168: LADY STAY DEAD & DON’T GO IN THE WOODS
Greetings, and welcome back to Horror Business. We’ve got one heck of an episode in store for you guys as we’re talking about Lady Stay Dead and Don’t Go In The Woods, both from 1981. First off thank you to the fine folks over at Lehigh Valley Apparel Creations, the premiere screen-printing company of the Lehigh Valley.

If you would like to become a Patron, head to patreon.com/cinepunx. Thanks in advance! We briefly talk what we’ve doing involving horror recently. Liam discusses the film Infinity Buffet, and Justin talks about the films This Is Not A Test, Hokum, Disclosure Day, and some of the films he watched for the Chattanooga Film Festival. Up first is Lady Stay Dead. We talk largely about how unpleasant we found the film to be, mostly since it felt interested mostly in being cruel and shocking and not so much in telling some kind of story. We compare the sexual assault scenes to other famous horror films that use such a tactic, and how the film has the unsettling tendency to sexualize such things instead of portraying them as acts of violence. Liam points out the film somehow is the worst at this amongst ‘80s horror films, and not only is it edgy for the sake of edgy it’s also not particularly good at it. We talk about how the film seems unable to make the antagonist a real believable threat, and how the film lacks the sense of catharsis most rape revenge films have so the violence comes off as completely pointless. <img data-recalc-dims="1" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-30478" src="https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/ladystaydead3.jpg?resize=1097%2C600&ssl=1" alt="" width="1097" height="600" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/ladystaydead3.jpg?resize=1097%2C600&ssl=1 1097w, https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/ladystaydead3.jpg?resize=300%2C164&ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/ladystaydead3.jpg?resize=768%2C420&ssl=1 768w, https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/ladystaydead3.jpg?resiz

Up first is Friday The 13th: The Final Chapter. We open by talking about the appeal of Jason Vorhees as being based on the fear of the other in that until the sixth movie he is essentially a mentally challenged hermit living in the woods. We touch upon the upcoming series. Justin talk abouts the checkered history of Paramount’s support of the franchise in that they were “becoming embarrassed” with their association with the series and intended to kill off Jason and have this be the end of the series but the financial response of the films inspired them to continue churning out sequels, and Justin ascertains that these movies are the epitome of the worst part of capitalism. <img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-30301" src="https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/finalchapter1.jpeg?resize=1010%2C600&ssl=1" alt="" width="1010" height="600" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/finalchapter1.jpeg?resize=1010%2C600&ssl=1 1010w, https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/finalchapter1.jpeg?resize=300%2C178&ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/finalchapter1.jpeg?resize=768%2C456&ssl=1 768w, https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/finalchapter1.jpeg?resize=1536%2C913&ssl=1 1536w, https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/finalchapter1.jpeg?resize=370%2C220&ssl=1 370w, https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/finalchapter1.jpeg?resize=760%2C452&ssl=1 760w, https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/upl

Justin talks about how the film seems to drop several hints at things to come later but never gives any payoff. We discuss the phenomenon of fetishization of the Middle East and the othering of Egyptian culture, and how for a period Egypt was, to Britain, the ultimate “other.” <img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-30153" src="https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/dawnmummyposter.jpeg?resize=450%

Justin talks about some of the films he saw for Brooklyn Horror Film Festival and Screamfest, as well as the films Alma and the Wolf, Somnium, The Astronaut, and Traumatika, and the HBO series Welcome To Derry. Up first is From The Old Earth. Justin talks about how this feels very much like the archetypical folk horror film. We talk about the history of the attempts to keep the Welsh language alive. We briefly talk about the history of Wales and how British colonialism had long attempted to crush the Welsh culture. Justin talks about the role of the Welsh in Lovecraftian fiction, particularly Colin Wilson’s short story, “The Return Of The Lloigor.” We discuss how despite taking place in Wales, the film still has a very British feel to it. The fact that only women can see the villain (a shadowy god) is touched upon and how that plays into the misogynistic views of post-WWII UK. <img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-29859" src="https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/oldearth2.jpeg?resize=750%2C600&ssl=1" alt="" width="750" height="600" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/oldearth2-scaled.jpeg?resize=750%2C600&ssl=1 750w, https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/oldearth2-scaled.jpeg?resize=300%2C240&ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/oldearth2-scaled.jpeg?resize=768%2C614&ssl=1 768w, https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/oldearth2-scaled.jpeg?resize=1536%2C1229&ssl=1 1536w, https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/oldearth2-scaled.jpeg?resize=2048%2C1638&ssl=1 2048w, https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/oldearth2-scaled.jpeg?resize=370%2C296&ssl=1 370w, https://i0.wp.com/cinepunx.
