From day one, this podcast started as an ode to the horror films that Rotten Tomatoes critics looked over, and some 80 episodes later, despite the atrocious SEO value of the titles covered, Certified Forgotten is still going strong. Come for the movie recommendations and amazing guests, stay for conversations from all sides of the film industry. A blend of insight, nightmares, humor, and heart.
This podcast is very good and I've found a whole buncha great movies because of it
I can’t say enough good things about the skillfulness of these hosts. They facilitate their guest’s contributions with a lot of thoughtfulness and respect. Their own contributions are informed and illuminating. I always learn something when I listen to CF, not just about the movie, not just about the guest, but about writing and moviemaking.
In the past year I’ve gotten into podcasts. So far I’ve listened to 41 episodes of this podcast & I must say I love it. I can’t say anything bad about it. I’m to the point that I feel like the two Matt’s are now friends of mine. Lol. I like the honesty of the cast & their guests always are great. I’m following a lot of them on Twitter now. If you are a horror fan & think you might have missed out on some gems check out this podcast! I’ve watched a few of the movies they have recommended & I’ve a... more
Always a fun listen, & great recommendations!
