Episode 095: Of Unknown Origin (1983)

Genre Exposure: A Film Podcast

In this episode, our interests clash as Jason subjects Dustin to a film from one of his least favorite horror subgenres: Natural Horror. So join us for a thrilling tale of man versus rat as we check out George P. Cosmatos' Of Unknown Origin from 1983. Jason celebrates the varying techniques used to realize the furry invader on screen. Dustin recounts his own experience with a wild animal infestation in a desperate attempt to talk about anything other than the movie. But before all that, we hit up the theater and have returned to dish on some of the latest releases of 2024. And so much more!
