  40. S2E23: Ouija: Origin of Evil

  45. S2E18: Happy Birthday to Me

    It's my birthday, and to celebrate my 40th I'm reviewing the 80's classic, Happy Birthday to Me! I saw this recently on Shudder and decided that instead of doing the obvious thing, and review Happy Death Day, I'd go off the beaten path a bit.

  46. S2E17: Cathy's Curse

    Cathy's Curse is one of those deep cuts that I only recently heard about thanks to the podcasts, Shock Waves and The Movie Crypt. After seeing it was available on Shudder, I knew I had to review it for the show.

  47. S2E16: 47 Meters Down
