i will liveblog the dossier in the feed description tho
In the generations that followed, they ruled as petty tyrants, creating Delegates as their slaves, remaking their bodies into glass and oil, and extending their reach across Palisade’s continents.

Blue Channel, Jade Kill, Violet Cove... i'm guessing this is the theme for the Cause (🏳️🌈) and that Gucci has perhaps gotten better at codenames
Carmine Bight: From ramshackle additions to the rocky shores of Rifle Island, Captain Skelton Knaggs (he/him) and his fearsome flotilla launch rusted pirate vessels beneath the waves, guided by a coalition of Hyphan navigators.

Skelton Knaggs is here!
He's almost never in the credits, so it's always a delightful surprise.
(I'm pretty sure he's being snacked on by the vorvolaka, so he probably won't last long, but I'm still glad to see him.)

On a Greek island during the 1912 war, several people are trapped by quarantine for the plague. If that isn’t enough worry, one of the people, a superstitious old peasant woman, suspects one young girl of being a vampiric kind of demon called a vorvolaka.

The Grue-Crew join producer Val Lewton, director Mark Robson, and legend Boris Karloff for a quietly creepy and haunting masterpiece from RKO Radio Pictures, Isle of the Dead (1945). This is the second of three films Lewton and Karloff would make together (along with Bedlam and The Body Snatcher) and the fourth of five films Lewton would make with Robson. The tagline promises, “Will Keep You Screaming!” – and, this time, it just might. Check out what Chad, Daphne, and Jeff take away from this undeniable classic.
Here are the other Decades of Horror Classic Era episodes on Lewton-produced movies:
CAT PEOPLE (1942) – Episode 37 – Decades of Horror: The Classic Era
