Minisode 157: Sinners (2025)

In a special mini-minisode, Steve is flying solo and talking about Sinners. After almost 6 days without electricity, schedules were ruined and the previously planned episode was postponed. Now Steve gives a shorter than usual review on the recent joint venture between Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan. Is it the best vampire film of the 21st century? The last decade? Maybe just the year? Tune in and hear more about it. 

 

Plus an update on the Showdown, Patreon and what Steve read by flashlight like he was at summer camp.

Minisode 156: Frewaka (2024)

This week is steeped in Irish folklore as we talk about the recent Shudder exclusive Fréwaka from director Aislinn Clarke. Perhaps the most Irish film we've ever watched mixing faeology, historical trauma, and Catholic trauma. Then it does it all in Gaelic. A film's lore as rich as its cinematography, some are calling it the Irish Hereditary. It was Brian. Steve is sick and has some other things to say.

Plus we talk about our Nightmare of May Street Showdown

Minisode 155: Sabretooth (2002)

Another showdown, another loss. This month Kellie of the Final Girls took home the title and now she's making Brian and Steve watch her favorite dinosaur cat film. A surprisingly stacked cast full of hasn't beens, once weres, and never agains all take on a prehistoric beast on their vacation to Big Bear Lake. Karate and knife play from people who should never do either are their only hope. Also we find out what happened after Fievel went west.

Minisode 154: 825 Forest Road (2025)

A slight delay in recording our April Showdown has us headed down a different road. The road of Stephen Cognetti's latest film and first diversion from the Hell House LLC franchise. Is 825 Forest Road the first in a new lineage of ghost tales, or is it a dead end? We discuss what works and a lot of what doesn't of this latest Shudder exclusive.

Minisode 153: The Rule of Jenny Pen (2024)

This week we're getting put back in the retirement home. No not because we're old millennial podcasters, but because we're watching the latest Shudder release. The Rule of Jenny Pen features Geoffrey Rush as a judge being physically and psychologically tortured by John Lithgow with a puppet. We also give a mini review of A Cursed Man and talk film school films with New Zealand's Once Were Warriors.

Minisode 152: The Thing From Another World (1951)

This week, by listener request, we go back to the 1950s with one of the genre classics. Based on the John P. Campbell story, "Who Goes There?" and would later inspire John Carpenter's 1982 masterpiece The Thing. We get into the comparisons of the film and discuss the context of the looming Red Scare and McCarthyism. We also spend a lot of time talking about dog wrestling. So, something for everyone.

Minisode 151: Boys From County Hell (2020)

It's the true story of St. Patty's Day! Saint Patrick didn't chase the snakes out of Ireland; he buried the original vampire under some rocks and that's why we all eat cabbage today because it looks like tiny boulders. Chat is this true? Guess you'll have to listen to this episode and watch this film to find out if that Bram Stoker was full of it. Also, find out if Brian drinks enough to attempt an Irish accent.

Minisode 150: Sharkenstein (2016)

From Mary Shelley's Frankenstein to very smelly Sharkenstein, our patrons having won last week's Showdown have decided to punish us appropriately. From the sick and twisted mind of Mark Polonia comes the tale of Tri-State Area terror. But not really. It's another junk slapdash video to trick high people on streaming using one of the three magic SEOs phrases of shark, Amityville or Bigfoot. We don't like it, but somehow it all ends up in a Chuck Tingle discussion.

Episode 46: Victorian Horror Showdown (Part 3: Mary Shelley's Frankenstein)

Is it the march of time or the time of March that's led us to here to a showdown about the time of the Victorian Era; it's fancy dandies menaced by gothic ghouls when ...

Black Sunday (1960)

vs

Crimson Peak (2015)

vs

Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (1994)

 

Do the patrons have a princess pick, or will they be branded as losers for 200 years? Will Steve keep his titles locked away in his estate, or is it all about to come crumbling down around him? Has Brian found the Promethean formula to winning belts, or is he being to melodramatic?

 

Tune in as two mutant horror nerds and their patrons rip each other’s guts out on the way to deciding who’s film reigns supreme!
