Halloween 5 The Revenge of Michael Myers (1989)

Horror Movie Night ·

2026/10/09

It’s October and Scott’s pick this week, so why not torment his cohosts with what some would call the worst of the Halloween franchise? They are demonstrably wrong, and the guys are going to change some hearts and minds by singing the praises of HALLOWEEN 5: THE REVENGE OF MICHAEL MYERS (1989). Ok, well maybe not all of the guys, but Scott’s going to try his best to convince Matt and Kyle that this one has an unfair reputation, especially when there are some real stingers in the series after part 5

Poltergeist II: The Other Side (1986)

Horror Movie Night ·

2026/10/01

It's officially the month of Halloween and we are kicking it off with Matt diving into Poltergeist II: The Other Side. This long awaited sequel was viewed as a disappointment when released; has it gotten better over 40 years? How has it's depictions of indigenous people aged? Is that worm moment still great?

House II The Second Story (1987)

Horror Movie Night ·

2026/09/24

We round out Listener Submitted Month with another part 2, this one featuring a lot more elder abuse (it’s ok, the great-great-grandpa is kind of an immortal corpse) and a lot less butt stuff. HOUSE ll: THE SECOND STORY (1987) decides to not pick up where the first movie left off and instead focus on yuppies living in the gaudiest Aztec-themed house you may ever see. There’s a crystal skull that can be used for time travel, a six-shooter-wielding skeleton named Slim, and the star of the film, a

Wishmaster 2: Evil Never Dies (1999)

Horror Movie Night ·

2026/09/17

Listener Submitted Month continues with a film about an evil genie obsessed with granting nefarious wishes to his victims' butts. Seriously! WISHMASTER 2 (1999) has two different rectum-centric deaths, which may not seem like a lot on paper, but really add up in a 90-minute gorefest. A group of inept thieves accidentally release the titular djinn, who goes back to his old song and dance of offering wishes that people take without considering that they may end up pooping casino tokens. It’s really

Triangle (2009)

Horror Movie Night ·

2026/09/10

Listener Submitted Month continues with the time-loop slasher film TRIANGLE. When this was released in 2009 Matt and Scott watched it for Reddit Horror Club to mixed results but neither followed up with it for 15 years. Will they like it more or less this time around? Is it Kyle's first watch or his tenth? Does this feel familiar? Is this De Ja Vu?⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Buy Some

Green Room (2016)

Horror Movie Night ·

2026/09/03

We kick off Listener Submitted Month with Green Room. This punk rock horror revenge film is a masterclass of suspense, violence and standing up against fascism, so obviously it was totally up our alley! While moments made us yell out loud, it also captivated us and lead to a deep conversation about indie filmmaking, pacing and music.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Buy Some

Cry_Wolf (2006)

Horror Movie Night ·

2026/08/27

Do you miss the days of AIM chatrooms, razor-thin eyebrows and Jon Bon Jovi’s failed acting career? If so, we’ve got a long-forgotten gem for you this week, 2005’s CRY_WOLF! Full of twists, turns, and irritating character decisions, this is perfect for the movie watcher that wants a little sprinkle of slasher in their game of internet Clue. It’s not a good movie by any stretch, but the nostalgia factor kind of helps the watch feel like less of a slog. Get ready for an all-nighter, your urban legend

Autopsy of Jane Doe (2016)

Horror Movie Night ·

2026/08/20

It takes a lot to spook the HMN boys, but the sound of a little toe-bell ringing is forever going on the list of sounds we hope to never hear in real life. THE AUTOPSY OF JANE DOE (2016) is celebrating its tenth anniversary so we can finally discuss it on the show! There are a ton of ways that “naked lady on a slab” could’ve been handled poorly, but against all odds, the team behind this one made the titular character ominous and totally non-sexual while being disrobed and motionless for the

Seed of Chucky (2006)

Horror Movie Night ·

2026/08/13

Pervy little killer dolls are no strangers to the show, but what if those little freaks reproduced sexually and their poor kid was sold to Criss Angel? Scary stuff! SEED OF CHUCKY (2004) is both surprisingly ahead of its time AND somehow horribly tacky and gross for its time (and worse 22 years later). If you ever wondered what Chucky working his Stretch Armstrong in silhouette looked like, you’re in luck because he jerks off in this movie and that’s actually one of the less offensive scenes on

Island Claws (1980)

Horror Movie Night ·

2026/08/06

It’s still summer and that means you’re not safe in the water yet! This week, the island boys are going crab hunting with ISLAND CLAWS (1980), and film about what happens when capitalism allows people with money to dump radioactive waste wherever they want. And yes, we realize this same thing happened in KILLER CROCODILE - we’re trying to make a point here. The titular monster is (kind of) worth wading through all the character development because damn, who doesn’t want to watch a 10-foot-tall

The Void (2016)

Horror Movie Night ·

2026/07/30

Are you sick of people being stuck in buildings with vinyl flooring and concrete block walls? Well too bad, cuz we’ve got another batch of poor souls fighting off a death cult and Lovecraftian monsters in this week’s pick, THE VOID (2016). This one just turned 10, so we’re celebrating with a rewatch and a fresh perspective on Astron-6 movies. Is it an entirely new concept? Of course not, but it packs a body horror punch and has incredible low-budget practical effects so we all walked away happy. The

Orca (1977)

Horror Movie Night ·

2026/07/23

That’s right, MORE killer animal content but this time, but this time we get Richard Harris on a pretty obvious bender throughout the movie shoot. ORCA (1977) is a surprisingly competent and may we even say well-done entry to the the JAWS ripoff pantheon that doesn’t get as much discussion as we think it should so here we are. Where else are you going to see a smart aquatic mammal blow up an entire freaking power plant? It’s as awesome as it sounds, trust us.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our

Lake Placid (1999)

Horror Movie Night ·

2026/07/16

At this point, we’re basically “giant animals attack” movie connoisseurs so why not add to the pile with a turn-of-the-century horror comedy take on the genre? LAKE PLACID (1999) has a stacked cast and the legendary Stan Winston Studios doing sfx, but they seemingly forgot one key ingredient to make it all work - actual funny jokes. Oh well, we’re still here for some crocodile carnage, and we get a ton of it. Plus Betty White is in it! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our

Last Shift (2014)

Horror Movie Night ·

2026/07/09

It seems wild that confiscated items at a police station are underutilized trope in horror - think about all the weird stuff in evidence rooms, messing with it would lead to creepy stuff happening for sure. At least we have a gem of an indie horror like LAST SHIFT (2014) to show us what kind of trouble those cursed items could cause. You can’t help but feel bad for a rookie cop spending her first day (well, night, but you get the idea) on the job and being tormented by the ghosts of a murder cult

Jaws the Revenge (1987)

Horror Movie Night ·

2026/07/03

Christmas in July PLUS killer animal PLUS Stay Out of the Damn Water? You know which HMN host picked this week’s movie… It’s a very Matt Kelly Summermas with the film that gave a franchise a sea burial, JAWS: THE REVENGE (1987)! It may not be a good movie, but it’s probably not the worst shark movie we’ve seen, and at least it’s got Michael Cain in it. If you like a little fish psychic in your killer fish plot, well boy howdy have we got the film for you! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our

Stepfather II (1989)

Horror Movie Night ·

2026/06/26

Daddy issues, you say? Well you’re in luck then, because we’re continuing our backwards trajectory through the evil-guy-your-mom-married franchise with STEPFATHER II: MAKE ROOM FOR DADDY (1989)! This one owes much of its watchability to Terry O’Quinn as the titular bad bonus dad, but let’s not forget we have Meg Foster and Caroline Williams doing some heavy lifting as well! Jonathan Brandis also chews some scenery as a cool skateboarding preteen who is totally relatable or something. Wanna get

Dog Soldiers (2002)

Horror Movie Night ·

2026/06/18

One way to avoid getting eaten by reptiles is to spend a soggy night in the Scottish highlands…. trying to avoid getting eaten by werewolves. DOG SOLDIERS (2002) is a well-loved cult classic and we somehow went 11 years without discussing it directly so it was about time that was rectified. The wolves look great, the pacing is awesome, there are buckets of gore (and so, SO many bullets), and there’s a ton of dry British humor - what more could you ask for? Besides not being werewolf food, of

Killer Crocodile (1989)

Horror Movie Night ·

2026/06/12

More killer animals this week, now with added radioactive waste! We’re heading to the tropics to investigate rumors of a KILLER CROCODILE (1989) and likely lose some limbs in the process. This Italian mess really shines when the ADR is off, the acting is over the top, and the croc animatronic is front and center (which is, thankfully, pretty often). The plot beats aren’t anything you haven’t seen before, but man, that croc looks awesome when it’s chowing down on people who didn’t take Matt’s advise

Demonwarp (1988)

Horror Movie Night ·

2026/06/04

Summertime calls for a trip out to the woods for some good old-fashioned Bigfoot hunting! You wouldn’t think a movie called DEMONWARP (1988) would be about killer sasquatch, and on a certain level you’re not wrong - calling this a Bigfoot movie is a simplification of the other absurd stuff that goes on here. There are also zombies and aliens, and yes it’s all supposed to connect. Is it a good movie? Absolutely not, but it does star George Kennedy. Take that as you will.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our
