267. Texas Frightmare Weekend 2026 - Day 1: Vendors, Scarah & Learning Curves

Coming to you live outside the Grand Ballroom of the Irving Convention Center, The Movies trucks along through Texas Frightmare Weekend 2026! It's Day 2, Saturday, as I record this, but we're gonna be talking about Day 1, Friday. Friday was a learning curve. I had a massive headache, almost - almost - as equally massive anxiety and I struggled to put myself out there to chat with people and share my experience with you lovely people. But I, with the help of a pharmaceutical rapscallion who handed me Tylenol and ibuprofen, persevered. I ended Friday utterly exhausted but grateful at all I was able to see. We're talking exhibits, sweet-ass merch, Joe "Holy shit, he's the first person I see once I enter the building" Dante. For a scary-movie-loving nerd, Texas Frightmare is nirvana. Seriously. If you're still to attend Texas Frightmare Weekend and want some more tips on how to be and do your best there, do yourself a favor and check out Scarah Screamcast's episode on the 10 Commandments of Texas Frightmare. It's gonna save your ass. --- Texas Frightmare Weekend's website Follow The Movies on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ & ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Letterboxd⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Throw a couple dollars in the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠tip jar!
