Happy Valentimes, Cinebyters! Here's hoping you all have someone to have Heart Eyes for this year! As for us, we've got Heart Eyes for this movie! This week, we wanted to chat about this fun holiday hit that's equal parts Rom-Com and Bloody Slasher, and fun from start to finish! With a cool, original baddie(s?)...and an all-star cast full of baddies...this is a great addition to the relatively small stable of options for occasion-appropriate content that you and your sweetheart to snuggle up ...

Merry Christmas, ya filthy animals! It's Christmas Eve-Eve and we're dropping ANOTHER holiday hit down your chimneys with It's a Wonderful Life from 1946 rounding out our...I'm sorry? What's that? OH! Sorry 'bout that, this is actually a horror podcast, so we're chatting about It's a Wonderful KNIFE from 2023...much more modern, but much less likely to land on anyone's yearly holiday watch list, I fear.

Happy Holidays, everyone! LET THE PUNISHMENT BEGIN! What happens when Grandpa convinces you that Santa is evil...and then you IMMEDIATELY see "Santa" do some evil crap that very night?? Well, naturally you sit in an orphanage and let that marinate for a decade or so, until YOU'RE put into the big red suit to see how YOU hold up. There's NO WAY this could end badly! We sat down to talk about the poorly received, but cult approved 80's Christmas slasher, Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984)...and ...

COME AND GET IT! Dinner is served for The Cinebytes Thanksgiving week episode on The Menu (2022)! We had a great time sitting down at the dinner table to chat about this STELLAR horror comedy that came out of NOWHERE late in 2022! Ralph Fiennes, Anya Taylor-Joy and Nicholas Hoult delight in a surprisingly peppy and upbeat culinary adventure, where the guests are completely immersed in the experience...more than they ever imagined possible, in fact...

Brace yourselves, folks...this might be a rough one...but, as always, we'll try to make it as fun as possible anyway! We sat down to talk about the VERY heavy, VERY gross follow up to Danny and Michael Philippou's VERY heavy and VERY gross "Talk to Me"...BRING HER BACK (2025)! Looks like the RackaRacka squad is back up to their old tricks (along with some new ones) with an EXCELLENT Sophomore effort, telling a very "the blind leading the blind" story. Too soon?

Happy Halloween, Cine-biters! As mentioned on the previous release...we have a tradition 'round these here parts. On Halloween...we talk Hellraiser! Today marks the beginning of season 3, so naturally we're onto the third installment of this wild ride of a franchise! And this one brought along all manner of new hurdles to clear...
