Footage Not Found: Friday Night Frights

Footage Not Found: The IU Cinema Podcast

By the pricking of our thumbs, the return of an IU Cinema series this way comes. For this week's episode of Footage Not Found, we set the tone for the changing of the seasons, as the leaves begin to dry and days begin to dwindle, by highlighting IU Cinema’s long-dormant series Friday Night Frights. What makes a horror movie feel so different on a Friday night? Listen to Aja try to untangle this question as she gets lyrical about the thrills (and chills) of movie-watching in the month of October.

Footage Not Found is a co-production of the Indiana University Cinema and WFIU Studios.

Our theme song this week is “Evening Flows” from the band Busman's Holiday off of their album Popular Cycles. You can find out more about them on busmansholidayband.com as well as by following them on Instagram @busmansholiday.
