Mumblecore and its horror twin mumblegore defined indie filmmaking in the late 90s and 2000s. We take a look at a set of so-called mumblegore films and investigate how their small, human drama fits in with the logic of horror. Is mumblegore an aesthetic, a collective, or defined simply by the circumstances of its creation.

Includes discussions of Fall 2: Deadpoint (2026), The End of Everything (novel, 2026), The Signal (2007), Baghead (2008), A Horrible Way to Die (2010), Sound of My Voice (2011), Sun Don't Shine (2012), Blue Ruin (2014), Creep 2 (2017) and more.
