Episodes

Episode 390: 'The Last Temptation of Becky' (2026)
It has been a tough week for Star Trek fans. We talk about our memories of two of the franchises most popular characters. Did you know that Welcome to Derry dropped a surprise episode on Halloween? We did, but did we watch it? We also talk about the record set by Clayface and how it may not be…

Episode 389: 'The Good Things Devils Do' (2020)
We have had Shudder from the very beginning. The horror streaming channel has been good to us, giving plenty of material over the years. But it was a no-brainer to cancel it earlier this year when an amazing deal came out. Come to find out, we may have been suckered. Both of us are a little too…
more -
Episode 388: 'Scary Movie' (1991)
Unsurprisingly, Mike Flanagan’s Carrie has been doing fantastic since its release. And as such, it has been renewed for a second season. We have more news regarding Flanagan. And it has nothing to do with his Exorcist movie or his upcoming adaptation of The Mist. It is his plans for a huge...
-
Episode 387: 'Bad Candy' (2020)
There was a time when we could not wait to see the first 28 Years Later movie. Both of us were disappointed. One of us did see the DLC for it, but these movies have lost any goodwill created by the originals. We talk about the latest news regarding the next part and whether it is enough to bring…
more -
Episode 386: 'Varsity Blood' (2014)
Another month, another Stephen King adaptation. But this is a good one. Easily one of the best of this century. But Mike Flanagan is not stopping with just one season of Carrie. We talk about what he has planned and whether that is a good thing. Scream has been though a lot of the decades. It...
-
Episode 385: 'Hack-O-Lantern' (1988)
Unless you were alive during the time, it is hard to explain how big of a cultural impact the original Gremlins movie made. There was no way the sequel could live up to the first one and the franchise has gone surprisingly dormant ever since. We do have the latest news on the third installment.…
more -
Episode 384: 'Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum' (2018)
No matter how it turned out, Zach Cregger's Resident Evil was going to be interesting. There was so much discussion around source material and original ideas that even Cregger felt he had to go out and talk about it. Now, that the it has turned out to be another success, we talk about the future...
-
Episode 383: 'Soulm8te' (2026)
We do not talk too much television on our humble little podcast. But there is one show that we have namedropped a few times the past few months. And for good reason. Widow's Bay is one of the best shows to come along in a long time. Apparently, we are not the only ones to think so. We talk about...
-
Episode: 382: The Furious (2026)
A few months back we covered the bad news concerning Bruce Campbell’s health. We knew things would get worse; we just were not aware of how quickly it would be. We also have more news about Zack Creggers and his role in Gladys. And we thought our interest in the prequel could not get any lower.…
more -
Episode 3851: 'Conquest' (1982)
It is nice to see a long running franchise try something different. The new Evil Dead movies are an excellent example. So when we heard that a new director was interested in directing A Nightmare on Elm Street, we were interested. Until we found out who that director was. We spent a few weeks…
more -
380: 'Penny Lane is Dead' (2026)
We hate to start the show with sad news. But the older we get, the more it seems to happen. Two icons from our childhood suddenly passed away and we talk about their accomplishments and the legacy they left behind. Despite not actually reviewing it for our show, we have talked a lot about...
-
Episode 379: 'Buffet Infinity' (2026)
One of horror’s most dependable constants are Stephen King adaptations. The latest one takes a book that mixes one of the author’s greatest strengths. King is great at mixing grounded scares with supernatural horror. Which is why the team announced to work on Desperation is interesting. Plus,...
-
Episode 378: 'The Hunger' (1983)
Following last’s week review, Ice Cream Man became a huge talking point on the internet. At the time of recording, the use of AI had not been revealed. And though we thought the movie should be avoided in theaters, we also thought it was worth streaming. Our opinions have not changed, but we do...
-
Episode 377" 'Ice Cream Man' (2026)
It is surprising how little people talk about Robocop. When it first came out it was amazing. The character was awesome, the movie was great, and the action was second to none. As is usually the case, the sequels worsened and the recent remake was not so great. Still, it is surprising to see how...
-
Episode 376: 'Bowels of Hell' (2026)
It has been a long time since we have talked about the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But this week we have a lot to talk about. And it is more than just the Doomsday trailer and the upcoming Spider-Man movie. On the plus side, it seems like the MCU may be closer to the darker Marvel that people have...
-
Episode 375: 'Rubberhead' (2026)
It is impossible to have a horror podcast and not talk about ‘Friday the 13th’ and ‘A Nightmare on Elm Street’. And most of our time has been spent wondering how there has not been a new entry in either of the fan favorite franchises for decades. We finally have a little bit of news on both of...
-
Episode 374: Special Edition 'Evil Dead Burn' (2026)
SPOILER ALERT!!! THE EPISODE CONTAINS MAJOR SPOILERS FOR ‘EVIL DEAD BURN’ The ‘Evil Dead’ franchise means a lot to us. It has touched us on a personal level, it has earned its place in horror history, and it is one of the few franchises in Hollywood to never release a bad installment. We talk…
more -
Episode 373: 'Mockbuster' (2026)
We have spent years talking about how important The Blair Witch Project is. We discuss the pros and cons of the latest reimagining of the iconic found footage classic. And we are definitely interested. Plus, the latest internet horror fad that Hollywood wants to adapt into a movie. And while it...
-
Episode 372 'Ebola Syndrome (1996)
It has been a bad week for people who enjoy physical media. 'GTA VI' is not getting a physical release, Playstation games are not getting physical releases after next year, and Sony deleted over 550 movies from user libraries. We also talk about the awesome summer box office. Sometimes it seems...
-
Episode 371: 'Hungry' (2026)
The Evil Dead franchise holds a special place in our hearts. It is a part of our youth and brings back lots of pleasant memories. There has also never been anything like it. We talk about how the new Evil Dead movies are continuing to live up to the awesome legacy. We also spend some time...
-
Episode 370: Mid year recap
Time moves more quickly now than it ever has. It was not that long ago that we were talking about a new show executive produced by the Duffer brothers. About a month later, it is one and done. As someone once reminded us, we are just two guys who watch movies. Production budgets and domestic...
-
Episode 369: 'Find Your Friends' (2026)
Aside from Art the Clown, what has Damian Leone contributed to horror? We also come dangerously close to gatekeeping while we discuss what extreme horror is. Plus a discussion on the 28 Years franchise somehow leads to a talk about The Bride. We spend a good amount of time talking about Find Your...
-
Episode 368: 'Chum' (2026)
Horror has always managed to do well at the box office. The way of thinking has always been since the movies are so cheap to make, it is easy to profit of of them. This year has been especially good, with indie horror doing a lot of the heavy lifting. It is clear there is a lesson to learn from...
-
Episode: 367: 'Speed Demon' (2026)
Over the years, we have seen and discussed how horror has become more acceptable in the mainstream. This week we talk about two of the most striking examples of this. One is interesting while the other is just straight up weird. But both have us interested. The idea of a nun who has lost her…
more -
Episode 366: 'This Is Not a Test' (2026)
Obsession has become one of the biggest and most talked about movies in America. So much so that it has actually been the number one movie at the box office during the week. Obviously, this will change over the holiday weekend, but it is still nice to see it doing so well. We also talk about what...
-
Episode 365: 'The Demon' (1979)
We like Sophie Thatcher and have enjoyed the works of Jennifer Kent. The idea of the two of them teaming up has us excited. Especially when it is set in a dystopian world. And it is based on a short story written for the pulp magazines of yesteryear. By a woman posing as a man. Good Boy was one…
more -
Episode 364: 'The Python Hunt' (2026)
A few weeks back we wondered how well Michael would fare at the box office. There is so much to his legacy that we truly had no idea. Two weeks later, we have a good idea. It also leads to a discussion about how the media, especially movie critics, really suck. It took one of us a second viewing…
more -
Episode 363: Repo! The Genetic Opera
We really enjoyed Longlegs, so the news of a sequel reuniting Osgood Perkins and Nicolas Cage has us excited. We also cannot wait to see what the next chapter of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre will be like. Maybe this will be the return to prominence the iconic franchise deserves. There was a lot of...
-
Episode 362: 'Itch!' (2026)
Tale From the Crypt is one of the best anthology horror shows of all time. One of the things that made it so special is that so much has been left to our memories. It has not been available for literally decades. We are excited to hear that the full series is coming to Shudder, but we also wonder...
-
Episode 361: 'Night Patrol' (2026)
With all the reboots and remakes going around, you figured Hollywood was going to have to get to Bloodsport eventually. But how do you cast it? And is a mid-major company known for horror and artsy-fartsy fare the way to go? We also have more complaints about the latest take on It and lament…
more -
Episode 360: Faces of Death (2026)
There is no doubting Scream’s place in horror history. Still, it is somewhat surprising what the latest installment has done. Part of the success of the sequels is due to Jenna Ortega. There was a time when she was white hot and seemed poised to take over Hollywood. Has that window already…
more -
Episode 359: The Yeti (2026)
There are always upcoming sequels to talk about. Tubi has been kicking ass and taking names. But for all the awesome older content on the channel, people tend to forget that it does have original programming. Last year’s R.L. Stine’s Pumpkinhead was successful enough to have warranted a sequel.…
more -
Episode 358: 'The Serpent's Skin' (2026)
The 1980s were the best decade for larger than life action heroes. There were so many characters and moments to come out of the decade. We talk about the sudden passing of one of the greatest. Chuck Norris became a meme after the birth of the internet, but he never stopped being a bad ass. Plus…
more -
Episode 357: 'Oddity' (2024)/ 'Bodycam' (2026)
Growing up, we were fans of The X-Files. Reboots have been a mixed bag, however. That does not stop us from being excited about Ryan Coogler’s upcoming take on the series. As we speculated last week, The Last Drive-In aired its final episode. According to those in the know, there will be more to...
-
Episode 356: 'Corey Feldman vs the World'(2026)/'Dolly'(2026
The horror community continues to be rocked with sad news. Bruce Campbell’s announcement is one of the most painful. The latest installment of the Scream franchise has polarized audiences, but has not stopped it from being a success. Will the Maniac Cop reboot do as well? There is no doubt that...
-
Episode 355: 'The Last Sacrifice' (2026)/ 'The Dreadful' (2026)
We have more Mike Flanagan news this week. With the release date of his Carrie series we discuss what we would like to see from the show. Predator: Badlands recently released on Hulu and did record numbers. We talk about what this means for the franchise. We have been lucky to cover some…
more -
Episode 354: 'The Haunted Forest' (2026)/ 'The Mortuary Assistant' (2026)
The genesis of our show can be found in the Alamo Drafthouse. We may not go to it as often as we used to, but we did not want to see it close its doors in El Paso. We have not had too many good things to say about The Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise recently. Maybe the latest update will have…
more -
Episode 353: Back to high school ('Teacher's Pet'(2026)/'Whistle'(2026)
It was an interesting weekend at the box office. The big discourse was all around Melania, but we don’t really care about that. What was interesting to us was the battle for the top spot between an old favorite and a YouTuber. We also talk about an exorcism movie in the White House and an…
more -
Episode 352: We belong to the night ('Grizzly Night'(2025)/'Night Nurse'(2025)
Before we get to our first review, what may possibly be the strangest reboot of the year. As cool as that news is to us, the latest from The Conjuring universe has us more confused than excited. Of course, we talk about the Oscars and a new movie that is taking its cues from one of the greatest...
-
Episode 351: Favorite movies of 2025
It is hard to believe how much happened in 2025. We saw close to one hundred movies, and even the ones we saw in the past couple of months seem like a long time ago. So going back a few twelve months seems like an epic journey. And we do go back to the very beginning of the year. There are some...
-
Episode 350: Least favorite movies of 2025
We love horror and genre. It has been the focus of our show for years. And it is because we like these types of films so much that we notice the ones that are really bad. Of course, when you cover close to one hundred movies a year, there are going to be some bad ones. But this year was...
-
Episode 349: Welcome to Derry
The last show of the year is upon us. We are doing something we have never done before. We have covered limited series before. To end the year we also have the return of one of our most asked about guest hosts. It is all killer, no filler this episode as we end things on a strong note. A few…
more -
Episode 348: Christmas surprises!
We have purposely avoided doing anything involving The Last Drive-In. Why would we want to review a movie when Joe Bob has already done it? There is no way we would be able to top what he had already done. We start our latest show with something directly from Shudder’s most popular show. We may…
more -
Episode 347: 'Keeper' Special Edition
SPOILER ALERT!!! AS WITH ALL SPECIAL EDITIONS WE DISCUSS ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING Osgood Perkins is one of the best horror directors going today. He has an eye for horror and knows how to deliver scares and an engaging story. Keeper is no different as its character driven plot builds to some of…
more -
Episode 346: 'The Devil All the Time' (2020)/'Welcome to Derry Ep 3'
As much as we like Osgood Perkins, even we were surprised to hear that Nicole Kidman will be starring in his next movie following Keeper. We also talk about the strange Orphan franchise and the pros and cons of the holiday season. Plus, a bigger budget rip off of Skinamarink? It is hard to pin…
more -
Episode 345: All Kings: 'Welcome to Derry Ep 2' (2025)/ 'Abraham's Boys' (2025)
There are some movies that stay with you. Gremlins is a huge part of our childhood. And though some of our memories may be muddled, we look back on it fondly. A more recent favorite is The Mummy, which has some of the best on-screen chemistry we have ever seen. We discuss our excitement for the...
-
Episode 344: Lore Hounds: 'It: Welcome to Derry' (2025)/ 'Hell House LLC: Lineage' (2025)
Is the first week of November the slowest time of the movie year? It is if you are a genre fan. We do have a little bit of news. Osgood Perkins excites us while John Carpenter disappoints us. There is also an important change to your Halloween viewing schedule. Plus, a new horror streaming…
more -
Episode 343: 'Rats: Night of Terror' (1984)/'The Salem Chronicles' (2025)
How do we talk about the marketing of movies so much? Probably because it often feels uninspired. Character posters all look alike, trailers give away everything, and press junkets seem to be more about looking for viral moments. There have been some noticeable exceptions, but we think we have...
-
Episode 342: 'The Weedhacker Massacre' (2025)/ 'Other' (2025)
Before we get to the scary stuff we discuss a cool double feature coming in November. It's just a question of whether our bodies could hold up to it. We then talk about a horror legend who is surprisingly overlooked. Someone who deserves a biopic and may possibly be getting one soon. Low budget...
-
Episode 341: 'Ash' (2025)/ 'Good Boy' (2025)
Quentin Tarantino has been releasing movies since we were teenagers, so he holds a special place for us. This is especially true of the Kill Bill movies since we were a little older, plus they became a part of mainstream culture. Watching The Whole Bloody Affair is a tall order, however. The news...
