Martin
11/04/2017 Duración: 53minNot many people outside the die-hard horror circles have even heard of George Romero's vampire tale, Martin. Sometime between Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead, he made a few movies that failed to connect with a large audience. This would be one of them.
-
The Fly (1986)
06/04/2017 Duración: 57minOur good friend and self-professed Jeff Goldblum fanatic, Simone, joins us on an adventure into sadness and absolutely disgusting makeup effects.
-
House (1986)
08/03/2017 Duración: 01h02minWe revisit another Fred Dekker project (that's three so far!) that's managed to win our hearts with 80's charm.
-
Tales From the Hood
02/03/2017 Duración: 56minAlthough we are clearly not the target audience for this film, we did find some redeeming qualities in this otherwise missable flick. Plus you get to hear two white guys stumbling over themselves to remain objective about subjects with which they have little to no experience.
-
Shaun of the Dead
21/02/2017 Duración: 57minSimon Pegg's debut to American audiences fires on all cylinders as a rollicking comedy. Yet it's the strong characters and heart that elevates this far above most of the other horror comedies we've reviewed thus far.
-
The Bird With the Crystal Plumage
18/02/2017 Duración: 58minThis directorial debut by horror legend Dario Argento also happens to be both his first and perhaps most accessible feature film - so popular in Italy that it played at a single theater in Milan for several years.
-
The Ring (2002)
09/02/2017 Duración: 01h03minIt's a bleak story, but we both seemed to like it a lot better on the second go-round. Listen to also discover how it compares with the Japanese original. Shout out to loyal listener, Jordan, for this week's request. Thank you!
-
Student Bodies (1981)
01/02/2017 Duración: 49minWe both found plenty to laugh at in this Naked Gun-style send-up of pre-1982 horror films.
-
The Monster Squad
24/01/2017 Duración: 01h16minThe three of us enjoyed chatting about this "Goonies for horror fans," delivered like a time capsule from the 1980's. We kinda wonder why it isn't more popular today.
-
Society (1989)
04/01/2017 Duración: 01h50sNeither of us can figure out how this shocker escaped our notice all these years. All we can say is, better late than never. Whatever you do, save yourself the surprise ending by not reading anything online about this before you see it.
-
New Year's Evil
27/12/2016 Duración: 50minBrought to you by the Globus-Golan team of schlocksters behind the late Cannon Films production powerhouse, we can't even say it's more than mildly interesting. But we did have a lot of fun talking about just how bad it is. So it's in this spirit that we lift up this first podcast as a toast to 2017 - hoping that you'll stay safe and avoid EEEEVIIIIIL as you ring in the new year.
-
Gremlins
20/12/2016 Duración: 01h07minGremlins is a Christmas classic, inside and out. Yet it was originally released during the summer to go head-to-head against Ghostbusters and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. What a great year for movies, eh? Listen to us love all over this Stephen Spielberg-produced, Joe Dante-directed, Christopher Columbus-written comedy that JUST manages to stay kid-friendly.

Silent Night Deadly Night 5: The Toymaker
30/11/2016 Duración: 01h02minWe kick off the 2016 holiday season with the 5th installment of the infamous killer Santa horror saga. Only this one doesn't really contain a killer Santa. What it DOES have is something far more bizarre, and an ending that is well worth the (admittedly low) price of admission. It also has Mickey Rooney. Happy Holidays!

You're Next
22/11/2016This home invasion film puts a bit of a twist on the genre. We both enjoyed discussing this fast-paced gem.
