About the Host
Rottin' Roger
Rottin' Roger grew up chasing anything that promised nightmares.
Monster movies, slashers, creature features, VHS rentals, late-night horror marathons... if it was weird, creepy, or covered in fake blood, he was there.
Where the Rot Started
That obsession eventually became The Deep Cut Podcast, where Roger mixes movie criticism, horror history, behind-the-scenes research, guest interviews, and enough questionable opinions to keep the comment section busy.
Rottin' Roger breaks down horror movies from every era, digging into behind-the-scenes stories, filming locations, practical effects, budgets, forgotten trivia, and the creative people who bring nightmares to life.
He doesn't expect everyone to agree with him. Honestly... that'd be kind of boring.
No Safe Opinions
Some episodes celebrate horror's greatest movies. Some episodes rip them apart. Others dive into horror fan culture, internet gatekeeping, VHS nostalgia, creature features, slashers, found footage, analog horror, and whatever else Roger can't stop thinking about that week.
No corporate talking points. No fake positivity. Just honest opinions, dumb jokes, and a love for horror that's been rotting for decades.
