Welcome to episode 42 of The Horror Double Bill the podcast where each week we pair two movies to create something greater than the sum of their parts

This week we are exploring the horrors of colonialism with two films that suggest that the price for cultural oppression and appropriation is a very heavy one.

I Walked with a Zombie (1943) dir. Jacques Tourneur, with Frances Dee, Tom Conway, Edith Barrett and Christine Gordon.

The Reptile (1966) dir. John Gilling, with Jennifer Daniel, Noel Willman, Ray Barrett and Jacqueline Pearce.
