Real Horrorshow Podcast

Only one more Minishow left until we finish The Originals. For realsies this time. I promise.  Hayley is dead and Elijah is on his way back to New Orleans to help his fiancé eradicate the Nazi vampires her mother helped create.  And what is a movie-review podcast to do when there’s an industry-wide strike?  Well, we’re still trying to figure that out ourselves boys and girls and friends beyond the binary.  For now, we’re looking to review International feature films, dive into the A24 catalog, and force Stormy to watch her first anime…so it’s going to more or less the same but perhaps a little more heated.  Guest Find Us Online - Website: www.realhorrorshowpodcast.com - Twitter: www.twitter.com/Horrorshowpod - Support: www.realhorrorshow.com/support/ - Submit: www.realhorrorshow.com/submission-guidelines/  Good Things to Support The Real Horrorshow Podcast stands behind SAG-AFTRA and WGA as they strike.

Is it possible to make a good Children of the Corn film? We ask ourselves this very important question as we review 2023’s Shudder Exclusive Children of the Corn 2020 remake. I mean, there are literally 11 movies in the franchise now.  One of them has to be good, right? Right?  Well, after being shot during the early days COVID-19 Pandemic and stuck in distribution hell for the last three years Kurt Wimmer’s attempt brings the franchise to the modern day with a new baddie in the lead: Eden.  There’s also our Final Girl™ Bo and her dad, the town Comptroller. Or Mayor. I don’t know they never really clarified.  And it wouldn’t be a Children of the Corn film without the wonderful He Who Walks.  We also talk about Barbenheimer, Halloween Ends, and the joys of aging.    Guest Find Us Online - Website: www.realhorrorshowpodcast.com - Twitter: www.twitter.com/Horrorshowpod - Support: www.realhorrorshow.com/support/ - Submit: www.realhorrorshow.com/submission-guidelines/    Good Things to Support https://docs.google.

The smog has returned because Canada is still on fire apparently. But that’s okay because we’re back on track with the final season of The Originals. And by “we” I really mean it! After the rut that was season three, these last two seasons have really found their stride again.  We find the Mikelsons where we left them: sad and separated. Elijah is playing the piano at a bar in France, Rebbekah is living her best life with Marcel, Freya is still lesbianing, and Klaus is angsting his hardest. But there’s something sinister in the air as Klaus refuses to follow the rules and Hope is dealing with her own teenage problems. Also, where the hell is Haley?  Guest Find Us Online - Website: www.realhorrorshowpodcast.com - Twitter: www.twitter.com/Horrorshowpod - Support: www.realhorrorshow.com/support/ - Submit: www.realhorrorshow.com/submission-guidelines/  Good Things to Support https://docs.google.com/document/d/1T-aDTsZXnKhMcrDmtcD35aWs00gw5piocDhaFy5LKDY/mobilebasic https://shoutyourabortion.com/abortion-pills/ ht

We’re back after our mini-break and some major life changes. Sam is now married and Stormy is still chugging along on her Ph.D. (like, she was literally doing school work in the bridal suite??). This week, we’re here to review the newish Catholic horror film Consecration.  Consecration is a 2023 Shudder Exclusive horror movie that follows an English Jenna Malone to a Convent in North Ireland. She’s there to uncover the truth surrounding her brother’s death because she simply can’t accept that he took his own life. Throughout her search, she finds that things aren’t as they seem in this quiet little convent and that there’s something sinister lurking beneath the surface.  We also take twenty minutes to discuss what everyone on the Internet is talking about: The Titan Submarine and the Hubris of Man. Seriously, the word hubris has reached its ultimate peak this week. I’ve never heard it used more. Hubris hubris hubris hubris hubris.  Guest Find Us Online - Website: www.realhorrorshowpodcast.com - Twitter: www.t

It's Sam's birthday on this quick little minishow, and we could not watch The Originals. Yeah, Netflix's new password-sharing policy is going to be a real thorn in the side of this podcast.  But it's fine.  It's fine.  Because there are other streaming platforms that don't have sticks up their ass. We're also going to take a quick, two-week break while Sam gets married and Stomry works toward her PhD.  Guest Find Us Online - Website: www.realhorrorshowpodcast.com - Twitter: www.twitter.com/Horrorshowpod - Support: www.realhorrorshow.com/support/ - Submit: www.realhorrorshow.com/submission-guidelines/    Good Things to Support https://docs.google.com/document/d/1T-aDTsZXnKhMcrDmtcD35aWs00gw5piocDhaFy5LKDY/mobilebasic https://shoutyourabortion.com/abortion-pills/ https://aidaccess.org/ -----  - Quileute Move to Higher Ground: https://mthg.org/  - Red Canary Song: https://www.redcanarysong.net/ - List of BLM Affiliated Charities: https://bit.ly/3wSMW47   Credits - Host: Samantha Oty.

Who would have thought we’d be raving about a 2014 teen scream flick? Well, that’s what you can expect in our review of Unfriended, an early Blumhouse movie, and the first movie to be filmed entirely on a Macbook screen.  And, WOW was this movie weirdly nostalgic?   Guest Find Us Online - Website: www.realhorrorshowpodcast.com - Twitter: www.twitter.com/Horrorshowpod - Support: www.realhorrorshow.com/support/ - Submit: www.realhorrorshow.com/submission-guidelines/  Good Things to Support https://docs.google.com/document/d/1T-aDTsZXnKhMcrDmtcD35aWs00gw5piocDhaFy5LKDY/mobilebasic https://shoutyourabortion.com/abortion-pills/ https://aidaccess.org/ -----  - Quileute Move to Higher Ground: https://mthg.org/  - Red Canary Song: https://www.redcanarysong.net/ - List of BLM Affiliated Charities: https://bit.ly/3wSMW47 Credits - Host: Samantha Oty.

Season 4 of The Originals is a wrap! The conclusion of the penultimate season finds Hope possessed by The Hollow, in an attempt to save herself. The Mikelson siblings then make the heartbreaking decision to separate, as it is the only way to stop the ancient evil. Smash cut to seven years later, and Klaus is already breaking all the rules by giving his brother, Elijah, a $100 tip…in American currency…in France. Some things may change, but some things last forever.  We also take a moment to pick our next movie to review. 2014’s Unfriended, which follows a group of friends on a Skype call as they’re haunted by an evil entity. And then Sam’s microphone breaks.  Guest Find Us Online - Website: www.realhorrorshowpodcast.com - Twitter: www.twitter.com/Horrorshowpod - Support: www.realhorrorshow.com/support/ - Submit: www.realhorrorshow.com/submission-guidelines/    Good Things to Support https://docs.google.com/document/d/1T-aDTsZXnKhMcrDmtcD35aWs00gw5piocDhaFy5LKDY/mobilebasic https://shoutyourabortion.com/abortio

We’re back! We hope everyone had an awesome Easter/Passover/Ramadan or whatever non-Abrahamic spring holiday you choose to celebrate. This week, we’re very excited to talk about a fantastic little horror flick called Smile.  Smile is a 2022 horror movie directed by Parker Finn and stars Sosie Bacon. We follow psychiatrist, Rose Cotter as she is haunted by an ominous, smiling form. The movie is based on Finn’s short film Laura Hasn’t Slept, which can now be considered a prequel to his feature film debut.  If you’re like us and missed the opportunity to see Smile while it was in theatres, then you can catch it with your base Amazon Prime subscription!   Guest Find Us Online - Website: www.realhorrorshowpodcast.com - Twitter: www.twitter.com/Horrorshowpod - Support: www.realhorrorshow.com/support/ - Submit: www.realhorrorshow.com/submission-guidelines/    Good Things to Support https://docs.google.com/document/d/1T-aDTsZXnKhMcrDmtcD35aWs00gw5piocDhaFy5LKDY/mobilebasic https://shoutyourabortion.com/abortion-pills

This week we hit the midpoint of the fourth season of The Originals, and Alaric has re-entered the picture, setting the stage for yet another spinoff. Even though getting through this series has been a chore, Stormy sets the ambitious goal of finishing it by the end of April.  Will Sam be able to convince her to get to Castlenvania despite her disdain for animated shows? Yes. Or the podcast ends here.  Sam also gives her initial thoughts on the Resident Evil 4 Remake and Stormy finally breaks her silence on Scream 5 because she finally watched it.  Guest Find Us Online - Website: www.realhorrorshowpodcast.com - Twitter: www.twitter.com/Horrorshowpod - Support: www.realhorrorshow.com/support/ - Submit: www.realhorrorshow.com/submission-guidelines/  Good Things to Support https://docs.google.com/document/d/1T-aDTsZXnKhMcrDmtcD35aWs00gw5piocDhaFy5LKDY/mobilebasic https://shoutyourabortion.com/abortion-pills/ https://aidaccess.org/ -----  - Quileute Move to Higher Ground: https://mthg.org/  - Red Canary Song: htt

We said we’d get to it, and here it is: Terrifier 2. This little independent horror flick took TikTok by storm a few months ago, and we’re finally seeing what all the hype is about.  Taking place literally hours after the end of the first Terrifier, we follow Sienna, a high schooler grieving the loss of her father, as she prepares for a wild Halloween night. However, Art the Clown and his new demon daughter have other plans for the evening. Can Sienna get her shit together and stop the ultimate evil from killing her brother? And was this movie overhyped?  We’ll answer those questions and questions that you didn’t even ask in this week's thrilling movie review.  And look. It’s up on time.

The Originals is starting to find its mojo again in this first half of Season 4. Hayley, after five years of being a single mother, finally has all the pieces in place to wake up the Mikelsons. Including kidnapping and holding an innocent werewolf hostage. But that fine. That’s the least terrible thing anyone has done in this show.  Meanwhile, Marcel continues to torture Klaus, which I’m sure won’t come back to haunt him in anyway.  Meanwhile, meanwhile, Vincent has uncovered a horrifying entity that is kidnapping children in order to come to full power. And he may or may not be fully responsible for it existing in the first place. He was just in a silly goofy mood to get New Orleans back under the rule of the witches.  Guest Find Us Online - Website: www.realhorrorshowpodcast.com - Twitter: www.twitter.com/Horrorshowpod - Support: www.realhorrorshow.com/support/ - Submit: www.realhorrorshow.com/submission-guidelines/    Good Things to Support https://docs.google.com/document/d/1T-aDTsZXnKhMcrDmtcD35aWs00gw5p

The Invitation is a 2022 horror romance film that did not get the attention it deserves. Starring Nathalie Emmanuel and Thomas Doherty, the film follows a young woman desperately seeking a family connection after the death of her mother.  Thanks to online DNA testing, she’s able to meet one of her distant cousins who invites her to a family wedding in England, all expenses paid. She accepts, thinking she’s about to have the family she’s been yearning for--but things aren’t always what they seem.  Sam also bullies Stormy into watching an AnImAtED sEriEs.

We have officially reached the five-year time jump of The Vampire Diaries universe. That’s right season, three of The Originals wraps up with the Mikelson siblings falling into magical sleep while Klaus agrees to a life of torture to atone for his sins.    There’s also this whole thing with Marcel becoming Super Mega Original, but we’ll deal with the fallout of that in season four…probably. Sometimes they forget to wrap up plotlines, but it’s all fine.    We also discuss the future of the podcast with NETFLiX'S pASswORD shArINg LOckDOwN and our undying passion for the film Titanic as it SAILS back into theatres this month.

Life hit us hard n January, but we’re finally here to bring you our hot takes and cod takes on 2022’s viral sensation.   ‘Skinamarink’ is a 2022 horror movie about two kids who wake up to find their father missing. Strange things continue to happen as the doors and windows begin to disappear in their home, leaving fewer and fewer ways to get away from the monsters lurking in the shadows.    This is probably THE most divisive horror movies of the last 30 years, leaving these podcast hosts wondering:    “Have we found the next Blair Witch Project?”   But we couldn’t be more excited to get back into it and let you know whether or not Skinamarink is worth the hype.   Guest Find Us Online - Website: www.realhorrorshowpodcast.com - Twitter: www.twitter.com/Horrorshowpod - Support: www.realhorrorshow.com/support/ - Submit: www.realhorrorshow.com/submission-guidelines/    Good Things to Support https://docs.google.com/document/d/1T-aDTsZXnKhMcrDmtcD35aWs00gw5piocDhaFy5LKDY/mobilebasic https://shoutyourabortion.com/ab

Did you know the US remake of Goodnight Mommy came out earlier this year? Well, if you didn't you're in good company because we heard absolutely nothing about this tired remake.  Starring the queen of US adaptations, Naomi Watts, Goodnight Mommy (2022) follows almost the exact same story as the original Austrian film of the same name. Only...not as good. So, if you're looking for a watered-down version of the original where nothing is tied up well, Goodnight Mommy (2022) is the right film for you!

Hey all you cool cats and kittens, we’re back this week to let you know that we’re still not caught up on The Originals. But it’s okay. We’re just watching for funsies anyway.  But, that doesn’t mean we’re not going to fill you in on all the other fun stuff going on in our daily lives. Like, Sam getting to attend Kevin Smith’s SModCastle Film Festival and how Stormy is hard at work on that Ph.D.  We’ve also chosen the next film we want to review, which will be *drumroll* Goodnight Mommy (2022). And no, that’s not a mistake. They decided to remake an already perfect thriller because some of you people refuse to read subtitles.

Terrifier 2 was recently trending on the TikTok, so naturally, we had to jump on the bandwagon by reviewing…its predecessor, the cult classic 2016 horror film about Art the Clown. Terrifier, if you will.  Yes, it’s taken us a minute to get around to it, but were fame hungry Internet sluts who only review what’s popular.  Or whatever we want to watch.  You’re not paying us for this shit.  We also spend an appropriate amount of time discussing boobs and peens. #allpeensarebeautiful   Guest Find Us Online - Website: www.realhorrorshowpodcast.com - Twitter: www.twitter.com/Horrorshowpod - Support: www.realhorrorshow.com/support/ - Submit: www.realhorrorshow.com/submission-guidelines/    Good Things to Support https://docs.google.com/document/d/1T-aDTsZXnKhMcrDmtcD35aWs00gw5piocDhaFy5LKDY/mobilebasic https://shoutyourabortion.com/abortion-pills/ https://aidaccess.org/ -----  - Quileute Move to Higher Ground: https://mthg.org/  - Red Canary Song: https://www.redcanarysong.net/ - List of BLM Affiliated Charities: ht

We’re back with our highly-anticipated review of the Hulu original movie “Prey.”  Prey is the fifth installment of the Predator franchise and serves as a prequel to all the other films in the series. We’re taken back to the year 1719, where a young Comanche woman must prove herself as a warrior when she comes face-to-face with the advanced alien race we’ve all come to know and love.  We also talk about Native representation in other media powerhouses, specifically Twilight.    Guest Find Us Online - Website: www.realhorrorshowpodcast.com - Twitter: www.twitter.com/Horrorshowpod - Support: www.realhorrorshow.com/support/ - Submit: www.realhorrorshow.com/submission-guidelines/    Good Things to Support *This episode was recorded two weeks before the leaked Supreme Court Opinion on Roe v.
