David Lynch is one of the most important names in genre cinema. He is a creative artist who has given the world some of the most beautiful and confounding films and television ever. His impact on cinema cannot be overstated. We reflect on what he means to us.We started off this year covering Nosferatu from Robert Eggers. One of the things we talked about was how we just seems to understand horror. Check out the episode to hear our full thoughts, but the cliff notes version is that we loved it. The

Chances are that nothing from the Poohniverse will be in our favorite movies of any year. But that will not stop us from talking about it every chance we get. Blood and Honey may have burned us so badly we have not even considered watching another entry, but maybe the combined powers of the twisted versions of Peter Pan, Tigger, and Mary Poppins will be enough to save the burgeoning franchise.Until Dawn is the flip side. It is a creative video game that brings audiences into its world better than

We covered over fifty movies that were released in 2024. Naturally, some were better than others. Unfortunately, when you cover as much stuff as we did, some things end up being bad. As in, REALLY bad. Over the next two weeks, we are going to talk about the films from 2024 that stood out the most to us. First things first, we are messing with the worst.It’s not often that movies make us mad. Bored or frustrated, but actual anger? That just does not happen. Especially when you deal with indie cinema

SPOILER WARNING!!! AS WITH ALL SPECIAL EDITIONS WE WILL BE DISCUSSING MAJOR PLOTPOINTSWhen did vampires become tragically romantic figures? They certainly were not when Bram Stoker wrote Dracula. Bela Lugosi brought class to the character, but he did not make anyone swoon. Whether it was Hammer or Anne Rice, by the time Twilight stole hearts, vampires were sexy.Nosferatu is an interesting mix that handles the dark relationship between its two leads in a way that will surprise many. It combines what

We try to avoid rumors. We have no issues talking about speculation from unnamed sources, but just straight up gossip and fan casting isn’t really our thing. That is what the internet and social media is for. But if it involves a couple of our favorites, we have not choice but to chime in.There are a number of criminally overlooked characters in Hollywood. The most underused may be the Universal monsters. Everyone knows who they are - Dracula, Frankenstein, the Wolf Man - but they never seem to get

After talking about a disturbing dream involving Tom Cruise, we talk about movie franchises. There is talk of the MCU, Aliens, and Universal monsters, but what’s really on our minds is what is next for the M3gan Universe. We also share our memories on 28 Days Later and discuss the upcoming sequel.Christmas may be the second spookiest time of year, but it is still surprising just how many holiday horror movies are out there.

We loved The Substance. The performances were fantastic, the story was entertaining, and the effects were great. It was sexy, funny, and gross. Its slew of Golden Globes nods have us very excited about the movie and the future of genre cinema. Final Destination 6 is a different story.Ray Wise and Lin Shaye in a holiday horror movie sounds like a great idea. As a matter of fact, Dead End from 2003 does a lot of things right. Creepy road horror tends to be fun, there is a good kill or two, and there

Our 300th episode is upon us, and we decided we were going to try to answer the question. You say you want to get into horror but The Exorcist is not scary enough and you have already seen Scream? We have some suggestions for you. Or maybe you are just getting into genre cinema and you want to test yourself and push your boundaries. We have something for you, too.This show is not just for those who are new to horror cinema. We know the majority of you are longtime horror lovers. The great thing

George A. Romero shaped modern horror, invented zombies as we know them, and is just an overall legend. Resident Evil is one of the most well-known horror franchises in the world. What would have happened if the two ever came together? We also talk about the Cape Fear series that is coming to Apple TV.Tony Todd is a horror icon. We wanted to cover one of his lesser known movies. It was not important if the film was “good” or not. We just wanted something that conveyed the essence of Todd. When we

Tony Todd is a legend in horror. Most know him from the iconic Candyman, but there is so much more to him. Though he mainly worked in genre, he managed to find mainstream success. From popular horror franchises to much loved science fiction, Todd left behind an impressive body of work.Rod Serling is a fantastic writer and possibly the greatest host of all time. His legacy looms over much of modern horror. Every anthology ever owes him a debt of gratitude. We talk about how little we know of the man

What do Edgar Wright, Glen Powell, Stephen King, and Arnold Schwarzenegger have in common? A remake, of course! And this one sounds pretty good. We also talk about Mila Jovovich’s next zombie movie. It is not another Resident Evil movie, but is the end of a looooong running franchise.Strange Darling received rave reviews upon it’s release. While it didn’t make the same box office impression of some other indie horror films released this year, those who had a chance to see it were

We usually start the show off with the latest genre news. It may be time to just start calling our opening segment, “What remake is next?” This week it is all about the Wayans brothers returning to the Scary Movie franchise. Plus, their importance to comedy and the Super Bowl. We also discuss the potential American Psycho remake and who we would like to see in it.In a Violent Way is unlike any slasher that has come out since…well, possibly ever.

With the latest news that the movie has been removed from its release date of next year, now is the time to ask; is Blade cursed?VHS tapes were a huge part of our young lives.

We had a long talk about the Terrfier franchise and Art the Clown last week. Based on the surprising box office receipts from this past weekend, it would seem we are in the minority. When did that ever change our opinions? Plus, everybody dies. And that’s fucked up.Has there ever been an internet challenge that isn’t stupid? Ghost Game offers up possibly the dumbest one yet. Those who do the challenge are tasked to break into a house and live with the inhabitant without getting caught. Bad idea for

Christmas is the second scariest holiday of the year. From scary decorations to Christmas horror movies, there are a lot of things for horror fans to look forward to during the Yuletide season. It makes complete sense that Spirit Halloween would have a Spirit Christmas store. Though it is disappointing that they do not seem to be going a more horror-centric direction with it.We know what we are in for when we are going to cover a movie from The Asylum.

When was the last great take on Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein? We try to figure that out as we discuss the upcoming Netflix release from Guillermo del Toro. It probably has a lot more going for it than the Anaconda remake starring Paul Rudd and Jack Black.John Candy is an absolute legend. He was funny, charming, and a great actor. We leapt at the chance to cover one of his earliest roles. Not only was it a horror movie, but it was set on Halloween. Sure, he was still fining his way, but what better

We really didn’t care about the upcoming I Know What You Did Last Summer reboot. It just seemed like another tired reboot of what was already a ripoff. In other words, we weren't really interested. How did its latest casting announcement bring some credibility?How long ago was the Blade movie announced? How many writer and director changes has it gone through? What are the chances that it begins production in the next three years? Is it even going to come out? In the meantime, there is the new

It has been an odd year for horror at the box office. While the big name movies have done little to move the needle, indie horror is doing record breaking business. There is one notable exception that has not made this a complete shutout for horror in theaters. And it is not one of the many theatrical re-releases that have come out this year.Voice of Shadows gets off to a confusing start. It has an emotionally charged monologue that is immediately followed by a title card that includes two upside

James Earl Jones will forever have a place in film history based on his voice alone. From Darth Vader to CNN commercials, he is known the world over. But there is much more to him. Our memories include Conan, baseball, and Mystery Science Theater.The Goonies is one of the most important movies of the 1980s. It is the perfect movie filled with adventure, humor, and a satisfying ending. There was never a sequel because there was not a need for one. But we are getting one anyway.There is no point in

For all the talk of video games on our humble little podcast, we have never talked about Minecraft. And for one really good reason. Neither of us have ever played it. So the news of a new movie was a complete shock to us. The latest casting news from the new Masters of the Universe movie also caught us off-guard, though we were much more impressed.Broken Bird recently made its world premiere at the U.K. Frightfest to positive reviews. The film sounds like a dour affair. A lonely woman works at a
