Episode 272: Kryptic Director Kourtney Roy and The Thing (1982)

This week we're joined by photographer and filmmaker Kourtney Roy! We talk about her debut feature film Kryptic, the luscious photography in Canada, the goopy and...well, seminal, practical effects, cryptids and more! Then we dive briefly into her relationship with the horror genre before diving into the movie that caused her to go touch grass as a child: The Thing. Terry, again, goes on his conspiracy-theory guesswork on who's the thing by the end as we talk about our own relationships to the film. You can follow Kourtney on Instagram. Kryptic is currently available on VOD. Follow Mary Beth, Terry and the Podcast on Bluesky. We’re also on Twitter (sorta) with the same usernames.
