  • Episode 17: The Witch Who Came From The Sea/Gerald's Game
    May 5 2026

    Join us this month for generational trauma and wildly unhinged hallucinations! We Own the Dark dives headfirst into two films that are heartbreaking and brutal but definitely elicits that ol' "good for her" feeling. Jason chose first with Matt Cimber's The Witch Who Came From the Sea (1976) to which Jerry paired Mike Flanagan's Gerald's Game (2017). These two films tell unique and rich stories of the desperation and often bleak nature of survival.

    We Own the Dark is back with two hot, sweaty, bloody good films! Jerry chose the criminally underrated A Desert, the 2024 feature debut of Joshua Erkman, and Jason followed up with an insanely entertaining stunner, Donald Cammell's White of the Eye (1987).
