Saint Maud: All Hail
If you haven’t seen Saint Maud as of yet, have no fears, we won’t spoil a thing for you.
But we will explore what sets Rose Glass’ film apart from the rest of the horrors flirting with religious overtones – or undertones. The first-time feature film writer/director delivered an intriguing dramatic for those looking for something maybe a whole lot different.
No Trope Zone
When writing Saint Maud, Glass said that if she’d seen it before, she didn’t put it into her script. This “no trope” approach presents an engaging character study of Maud (Morfydd Clark) as she cares for the fading with flare, Amanda (Jennifer Ehle).
Billy and Jonny will look at the film, it’s themes and philosophies, and the atmosphere Glass and company conspired to create on-screen.

The plot sickens: Welcome aboard to Nautical Horror!
THE LAST KNOCK horror podcast is a Crash Palace Productions’ featured show. Besides this site, you can find THE LAST KNOCK on iTunes and Spotify (and more) with new shows posted every other Sunday at 9 PM ET.
Crash Palace Productions website design and creation from Brian Yount Digital Enterprises with banner, gif, and all THE LAST KNOCK art from Palko Designs.
The Last Knock always supports independent cinema!
Note: What’s up with the one-man shows as of late? Never fear, Jonny Numb and Billy Crash are still The Last Knock duo! But due to work demands, COVID-19 vaccine recovery, jury duty (both at the same time!), individual writing projects, and film pre-production, time has been demanding.
The pair will get on the same wavelength soon enough!
(Saint Maud movie still shot from A24.)
