Send us Fan MailThe people of Newville liked Christmas a lot, but the Mean One, living high in a cave on a hill...did not. Actor/voice actor Aaron Veach joins me today to spread a little Christmas fear, as we examine a bloody dark take on The Grinch. Is the Grinch scary?

Watch If You Dare Watch If You Dare Watch If You Dare is a podcast exploring horror cinema through the eyes of a coward and the eyes of a longtime fan. Each episode, Aaron (a horror movie monster boy) and his longtime friend Derek (a lover of the dark and macabre, but a spooky celluloid coward) watch a new movie and then attempt to put their bony fingers on why jumpscares, supernatural entities, and other phobias get under our skin. Whether you’re a hardened horror expert, a casual in a love-hate relationship with scary cinema, or just a victim of a dare, join Derek, Aaron, and the occasional guest or two and face your fears.

The dark corners drowned out in a cacophony of naysayers and ironic laughter. Hidden in these forgotten realms are a group of cinematic pariah that deserve a better fate. They deserve to be salvaged from the pit of lazy punchlines and viewed as joyous expressions of artistic integrity and passion. We here at Brain Melt HQ will guide you, potentially kicking and screaming, into the hypnagogic void as we explore the beauty in the outsider artistry of movie madness. We hope you enjoy the ride!
