I watched two versions, the 15 chapter serial and then the condensed film version. I’m pairing this with Backrooms (2026).

Episode 341: Hokum/Revolt of the Zombies

Hello and welcome listeners to Episode 341 of Journey with a Cinephile: A Horror Movie Podcast. In this episode, your tour guide, David Garrett Jr., shifts back to Scouring through the Sixes for episode 4. This double feature has Hokum (2026) paired up with Revolt of the Zombies (1936). This is an interesting pairing of puppet masters and mind control 90 years apart. In Revolt, the horror stems from ancient Eastern mysticism turning soldiers into mindless drones. For Hokum, the ‘magic’ is replaced by modern deception and psychological manipulation, the literal use of the title. I also got to see these films for Mini-Reviews: The Drama (2026), April Fool’s Day (1986), Strawstalker (2026) and Mother of Flies (2025). Also, two documentaries with the first being Lovecraft: Fear of the Unknown and Scream: The Inside Story. I hope you enjoy coming on this journey with me!
