Our guest this week, Jesse Bollinger of Horrorcopia and Bump in the Night, is both a fan of the paranormal and also very fearful of it. That's why we thought it'd be perfect to subject him to our film from this week, 2006's "Altered", from the director and writer of the Blair Witch Project, Eduardo Sanchez. In this installment of 100 Years of Horror, the Phantom Erik, Jesse and Lester Reaper witness a tale of four men, all connected through an experience from their childhood, now trying to figure out what to do with an alien in their possession—and one that doesn't want to play nice, no less. Though the film turns the standard paranormal story on its head, that doesn't stop the Phantom from unearthing similar extraterrestrial stories throughout the history of horror film. Tune in with your ears, and keep watching the skies!
