Bonus Episode With Mike P. Nelson on Beware Boiúna
There are filmmakers you interview once, filmmakers you interview twice, and then there’s Mike P. Nelson, who has now appeared on My Bloody Podcast ten times, which officially makes him less of a guest and more of a recurring character we apparently refuse to write out. On this bonus episode…

Episode #196 – Assault on Precinct 13 (1976)
Certain movies function less as entertainment and more as a personality test. Mention Assault on Precinct 13 (1976) in a room full of film fans, and someone will inevitably lean forward, lower their voice, and begin talking about John Carpenter as though they've just discovered fire. The post...

Episode #192 – Scream 7 (2026)

Episode #191 – Queen of the Damned (2002)
For Episode #191, Bryan and Preston sink their teeth into the glorious 2002 relic Queen of the Damned, the film that gave us Aaliyah as the impossibly cool vampire queen Akasha and Stuart Townsend as Lestat, replacing Tom Cruise's version of the character with considerably more eyeliner and...
