Happy Horror Time ·

2022/10/03

Not only did Lezlie Deane battle Freddy Krueger and live to tell the tale in “Freddy’s Dead: The Final Nightmare,” but she was directed by the man who brought this villain to life in “976-EVIL.” Tune in to hear all about making both of these horror films, her creepy crawly spider-filled death scene in “976-EVIL,” and what working with Robert Englund was like (both in front of and behind the camera).

Ep 117: Pearl's a Barbarian

Happy Horror Time ·

2022/09/26

Just when you thought you had seen it all in horror… two films come along that blow every trope out of the water. “Barbarian” offers surprise after surprise, along with one of the creepiest breastfeeding scenes ever. “Pearl” is filled with insanity, from an intimate encounter with a scarecrow to Mia Goth’s unforgettably unhinged performance.

Happy Horror Time ·

2022/09/19

As the first to outsmart a pre-hockey mask wearing Jason Voorhees, and the last to fall prey to Muffy St. John’s murderous prank, Amy Steel is the true definition of a “final girl.” Tune in to hear all about making “Friday the 13th Part 2” and “April Fool’s Day,” why she feels that her characters have resonated with horror fans for so long, and details on the original “F13 Pt 3” script that involved Ginny Field and finally revealed Paul’s fate.

Ep 115: Sorry, Invite Only

Happy Horror Time ·

2022/09/12

From a family reunion you don’t want to attend, to party crashers with not-so-pure intentions, the movies we discuss this week are all about invites gone wrong. “The Invitation” feels like a Hallmark romance… with fangs, blood, and murder, while “Who Invited Them” is uncomfortably effective for anyone who’s had to entertain strangers for way too long.

Ep 114: Interview w/Bob Heckman, Writer/Director of...

Happy Horror Time ·

2022/09/05

As a lifelong fan of the “Friday the 13th” franchise, it’s no wonder Bob Heckman created his own tribute film — complete with tons of callbacks to the existing movies. Tune in to hear all about the making of “Victim No More” and its recent premiere at Creature Feature Weekend, the horror stars who make special appearances in the film, and Bob’s friendship with some of the series’ favorite final girls.You can stream “Victim No More” for free on the film’s website:https://victimnomorefilm.com/Or watch

Ep 113: Don’t Fall for This Orphan

Happy Horror Time ·

2022/08/29

Isabelle Fuhrman’s back, 13 years later, playing a YOUNGER version of the murderous Esther in “Orphan: First Kill.” How’s that possible? We break it all down for you along with the anxiety-inducing, sweaty palm-producing, survival thriller — “Fall.” Climbing a 2,000 ft. tower in the middle of nowhere without telling anyone where you are? What could go wrong? 🤷‍♂️

Ep 112: Interview w/Theresa Tilly from "The Evil Dead"

Happy Horror Time ·

2022/08/22

As Shelly in Sam Raimi’s original cult classic, Theresa Tilly not only transformed into a Deadite, but she gnawed her hand off AND got chopped into pieces — par for the course in an “Evil Dead” film. Tune in to hear all about making this low budget indie hit, the mishaps that took place during her chaotic death scene, and how she's since banded together with the other “Ladies of the Evil Dead.”

Ep 111: They Like Them Bodies

Happy Horror Time ·

2022/08/15

A horror comedy starring Pete Davidson as… well, Pete Davidson, and a summer camp slasher with an LGBTQ+ story — these are the films we tackle in this episode. “Bodies Bodies Bodies” had us laughing laughing laughing at a group of entitled twenty-somethings with big mouths and bad judgment, while “They/Them” made us wonder if Kevin Bacon signed on before or after they added the Glee-like number of Pink’s “F**kin’ Perfect.”

Ep 110: Interview w/Robin Frates from "Puppet Master"

Happy Horror Time ·

2022/08/08

Including crossovers and spin-offs, there have been 15 movies in the “Puppet Master” universe to date. And we had the pleasure of chatting with the franchise’s original final girl. Tune in to hear all about filming the movie that kicked off this long-running series, Robin’s thoughts on the various puppets (and which ones she can still name today), and that time she worked with Jamie Lee Curtis.

Ep 109: Can Stanny Cope with Nope?

Happy Horror Time ·

2022/08/01

This week we welcome Stanley Jacobus, friend of the podcast and host of the YouTube channel, “Stanny Boy Reviews,” to join us as we discuss Jordan Peele’s highly anticipated new horror movie, “Nope.” Tune in to hear what parts had us giving a resounding “Yep,” our theories on the film’s meaning and all that Gordy stuff, and most importantly — what the alien reminded us of at the end. 🤭

Ep 108: Interview w/Stephen Cognetti, Writer/Director...

Happy Horror Time ·

2022/07/25

In our opinion, Stephen Cognetti’s unsettling and chilling film, “Hell House LLC,” ranks right up there with the best in found footage horror. And it happened to spawn two sequels within 5 years. Tune in to hear the full story behind the making of these movies, how that iconic and terrifying clown was created, and what’s next for the series.

Ep 107: Where the Scary Things Aren't

Happy Horror Time ·

2022/07/17

This week we searched high and dry (through VOD) for two not-so-mainstream horror flicks to discuss. “Where the Scary Things Are” involves a group of kids who apparently aren’t affected by swamp monsters, murder, or unusually long dance sequences. And “Neon Lights” features brightly lit rooms which unfortunately couldn’t take our focus away from its colorful performances.

Ep 106: Ethan Hawke's Not a Good Neighbor

Happy Horror Time ·

2022/07/11

Blumhouse is back with a new scary movie, and this time it’s not a burnout (cough, “Firestarter,” cough). “The Black Phone” gave us Ethan Hawke as a creepy child abductor and a phone with supernatural (and rather convenient) abilities. “The Good Neighbor” reminded us to never date the sibling of a person you’ve run over. Facts!

Ep 105: Interview w/Jeffrey Reddick, Creator of...

Happy Horror Time ·

2022/07/04

Although best known for creating the “Final Destination” series, Jeffrey Reddick has gone on to create quite a name for himself writing and directing horror films. Tune in to hear the incredible story of how he got started in the biz (horror fans will be jealous), and what inspired him to write movies such as “Tamara,” “Day of the Dead” (2008), “Dead Awake,” and “Don’t Look Back.”

Ep 104: We Like to Watch

Happy Horror Time ·

2022/06/27

This week is for all the voyeurs out there, as we discuss two eerie films that involve being watched (among other things). “Watcher” gave us the heebie-jeebies as it slowly weaved its way through each dark and chilling scene. And then there’s “Dashcam” — a chaotic journey that creeped us out… but for very different reasons.

Ep 103: Interview w/Danny Hassel from “ANOES 4 & 5”

Happy Horror Time ·

2022/06/20

Danny Hassel made us all swoon playing Alice’s boyfriend and “one major league hunk,” Dan, in “A Nightmare on Elm Street” Parts 4 & 5. Tune in to hear all about playing this strong but sensitive jock, what it was like filming his memorable (and brutal) motorcycle death scene, and the two upcoming projects marking his return to horror.

Ep 102: Innocent Until Hatched

Happy Horror Time ·

2022/06/13

Two foreign horror flicks, one valuable lesson — children ruin everything. JK! The telepathic & telekinetic kids in the Norwegian thriller, “The Innocents,” are anything BUT innocent as they f*ck with cats, break legs, and engage in a moral battle. And “Hatching,” a Finnish film, is all about keeping up appearances… and a humongous bird that morphs into a human.

Ep 101: Interview w/Ken Sagoes from "ANOES 3 & 4"

Happy Horror Time ·

2022/06/06

With his quotable lines and courageous personality, Roland Kincaid is one of the most memorable characters from the “A Nightmare on Elm Street” franchise. Tune in to hear Ken tell us all about playing this Dream Warrior, his thoughts on Kincaid’s untimely demise in Part 4, and why he wants to set the record straight on something people may have misunderstood in the “Never Sleep Again” documentary.

Happy Horror Time ·

2022/05/23

This week we welcome friend of the podcast and creator of "Totally 80’s Room" on Instagram & TikTok, Pete, to join us as we discuss the new “Firestarter,” while taking a look back at the 1984 original. Tune in to hear which parts of the remake sparked our interest, what had us fuming, and the most brutal kill in the film — that poor cat.
