Movies discussed: Rounding, Dangerous Animals, Monster Island, Sit Back (short) Hey Hot Doggies, sorry we were gone so long – the film festival ate all of our free time and most of Matt’s sanity. But we’re back! This time we dig Monster Island, like parts of Dangerous Animals, and think Rounding is a great pilot for a medical drama but not much else. Next episodes assignments: It’s What’s Inside V/H/S Halloween Good Boy Howl at the Dead (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies discussed: Ziam, Best Wishes to All, Venus, Mr. Static This time we dig the martial artist vs. zombies flick Ziam, agree that Venus is too much of a good thing (or maybe too many different good things?), and 2/3rds of us think Best Wishes to All is great. Next episode’s assignments: Dangerous Animals Rounding Monster Island Sit Back (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies discussed: Weapons, Mr. Harrigan’s Phone, Clown in a Cornfield, Cubicle (short) This time we’re into Weapons, gently entertained by Mr. Harrigan’s Phone, and split on Clown in a Cornfield (shucks). The MNGFE film festival is approaching WAY too fast and we’ll be launching the ticketing site soon! You can sign up at mngenrefilmexpo.com to get notified, if you wanna. No pressure. Next episodes assignments: The Ghoul Venus Best Wishes to All Mr. Static (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies discussed: Drop (2025), Push (2025), Orca, Attic Panic (short) This time we are surprised at how fun Orca is, not sure if Push delivers, and had differing levels of joy with Drop. Next episodes assignments: Clown in a Cornfield Together Mr. Harrigan’s Phone Cubicle (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies discussed: The Grapes of Death, Night Call, Ash, Storm (short) Sorry for the extended break, but now we’re back in the game! This time we love Night Call, appreciate Ash’s trippy aesthetic, and chuckle over vintage zombie movie The Grapes of Death. Next episodes assignments: Push (2025) Orca Drop (2025) Attic Panic (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies discussed: Frewaka, The Surrender, 28 Years Later, Roger is a Serial Killer (short) We called an audible on Bring Her Back (left the multiplex too fast) and did 28 Years Later instead. We liked… parts of it! And some of us liked Surrender! At least we all agree that Fréwaka is a somber Irish masterpiece. Next episodes assignments: The Grapes of Death Ash Night Call Storm (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies discussed: Final Destination Bloodlines, The Ugly Stepsister, The Damned (2024), Transfigure (short) You know we’re not great at celebrating milestones, but 500 episodes is special. So we pull out all the stops by reviewing three great movies: Final Destination Budlimes, The Damned, and Ugly Stepsister. Whether you’ve been with us for all 500 episodes or this is your first (or anywhere in between), thanks so much for listening. We would probably do this without you, but it would be even less pointful. Much love! Next episodes assignments: Bring Her Back Frewaka The Surrender Roger is a Serial Killer (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies discussed: Sinners, Dead Mail, It Feeds, quiet apocalypse (short) This week we gush over Sinners, dig Dead Mail’s retro weirdness, and agree It Feeds defines “solid.” Next episodes assignments: The Ugly Stepsister The Damned Final Destination: Bloodlines Transfigure (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies discussed: The Rule of Jenny Pen, Dead Talents Society, 825 Forest Road, Pentatarmex Rabitular (short) As we close in on our 500th episode, we’re determined to… keep doing the thing we always do. This time around, Jenny Pen rules, Dead Talents Society charms, and 825 Forest Road frustrates. Next episodes assignments: Sinners Dead Mail It Feeds Silent Apocalypse (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies discussed: Without Name, Death of a Unicorn, Revelations, Pleasant Inn (short) We’re back and in rare form! Okay, no, the usual form. This time we enjoyed Death of a Unicorn despite its uneven tone, found Without Name a little *too* somber of an Irish thing, and saw glory with Revelations. Next episodes assignments: 825 Forest Road The Rule of Jenny Pen Dead Talents Society Pentatarmex Rabitular (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies discussed: Heretic, Property, Starve Acre, Shut the Door at 10:04 (short) This time we find our faith in Heretic is justified, but Starve Acre is too much folk and not enough horror. Thankfully, Property rounds out the bunch as the feel-bad hit of the summer. Next episodes assignments: Without Name Death of a Unicorn Revelations Pleasant Inn (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies discussed: The Birthday, The Monkey, Nightsiren, Mop (short) This time around we have a blast with The Monkey, ponder whether general unpleasantness counts as horror with Nightsiren, and aren’t sure we should have RSVP’d to The Birthday. Next episodes assignments: Starve Acre Heretic Property Shut the Door at 10:04 (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies Discussed: Heart Eyes, Your Monster, Humanist Vampire Seeking Consenting Suicidal Person, Man on a Train (short) This time we feel  about Heart Eyes, kinda  about Your Monster, and more of a  for Humanist Vampire Seeks (etc). Next episodes assignments: The Birthday The Monkey Nightsiren Mop (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies discussed: Get Away, Companion, What You Wish For, Grafted, Pumpkin Guts (short) We’re back and we brought a bonus movie! This time we define a ‘hoot’ and apply that title to What You Wish For. Get Away almost rises to hoot status but remains sub-hoot. Meanwhile, Grafted is slack in the middle and we’re somewhat divided on Companion. Next episodes assignments: Your Monster Heart Eyes Humanist Vampire Seeking Consensual Suicidal Person Man on a Train (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies discussed: Wolf Man (2025), Werewolves Within, The Wolfman (2010), My Cat Lucy (short) It’s a loup-garou hullaballo this week as we dig Wolf[space]Man, laugh along with The Wolfman, and enjoy parts of Werewolves Within. Next episodes assignments: Grafted Get Away What You Wish For Pumpkin Guts (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies discussed: Nosferatu (2024), Cuckoo, Post Mortem, Playing Soccer in the Big Red Boots! (short) This time around we get to talk about Nosferatu, and Josh’s jealousy towards the people who liked it. We’re also all in for Cuckoo and dig Post Mortem, even with its horrendous English dub. Next episodes assignments: Wolf Man (2025) Werewolves Within The Wolfman (2010) My Cat Lucy (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies discussed: Smile 2, Y2K, All You Need is Death, Handjob Cabin Trailer (short) Sorry about the long delay over the holidays, but now we have a new recording just for you! This time around Smile 2 has us grinning, Y2k is so almost a thing, and All You Need Is Death has a great premise that someone should make a movie out of sometime. (Oh, and do listen for the post-outro stinger this time — it’s a whole other thing.) Also here’s a screenshot of the flaming child/person/scarecrow from the beginning of Smile 2 that Matt was asking about. If you have any idea of that the hell that is supposed to be, send us an email and let us know. Next episodes assignments: Nosferatu (2024) Cuckoo Post Mortem Playing Soccer in the Big Red Boots (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.

Movies discussed: MadS, Caddo Lake, Don’t Move, Meat Puppet (short) This time around we dig the single-shot madness of MadS, are suitably thrillified by Don’t Move, and have our brains agreeably scrambled by Caddo Lake. Next episodes assignments: Smile 2 All You Need Is Death Y2K Handjob Cabin (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episdoe.

Movies discussed: Strange Darling, Azrael, Campfire Tales (1997), A Bear in the Woods (short) This time around we find Strange Darling both strange and darling, Azrael proves Samara Weaving is the real deal, and Campfire Tales sparks a faint wisp of nostalgia. Next episodes assignments: MadS Caddo Lake Don’t Move Meat Puppet (short) Watch along with us if you like and we’ll see you next episode.
