Show Notes
This week the original BGH witch returns, when our very own CC joins the cast to discuss “Hokum”, starring Adam Scott. Along the way we discuss the film’s butt puckering jump scares, spooky symbols, and ties to a larger universe of the director’s work. Plus, find out what CC’s been up to for the past 5 years, and Eric gives Jon a crash course in Mortal Kombat II lore ahead of next week’s episode. Spoiler alert, he needs it.
Hokum is a 2026 supernatural horror film written and directed by Damian McCarthy. An author travels to a remote part of Ireland to spread the ashes of his deceased parents, unaware that his rented accommodation could be haunted. The film stars Adam Scott, Peter Coonan, David Wilmot, Florence Ordesh, Michael Patric, Will O'Connell, Brendan Conroy, and Austin Amelio. Learn more about your ad choices.
