Four hundred bucks for one night of babysitting? Sounds easy — until you realize the kid is imaginary and the family worships Satan.
In this episode, Talon and Dan dig into Ti West’s The House of the Devil (2009) — the slowest of slow burns that somehow still manages to creep under your skin. From real phone numbers to bad pizza choices and red flags you could see from space, this movie proves that “too good to be true” is usually followed by a blood sacrifice.
It’s part of our October theme, Not Just Another Halloween Movie, where we skip the masked maniacs and look at horror films that get weird, unsettling, and way too quiet for comfort.
And next month, we’re carving into Thankslaughter — a season of holiday horror where the family that slays together, stays together. We’ll kick it off with Home Sweet Home (1981) — the Thanksgiving slasher that reminds you not everyone should say grace.
Be scared, be prepared, and don’t get caught in the dark.
This week on Two Cents: We See Scary Movies, Talon and Dan head to Hull House for a Halloween party that’s less “trick or treat” and more “summon the damned.”
In this cult classic from 1988, a group of partygoers discover the hard way why you don’t hold séances in abandoned mortuaries. From endless dance sequences and questionable wardrobe choices to demonic possession and one unforgettable lipstick scene, Night of the Demons proves that not every Halloween movie needs Michael Myers to be terrifying—or ridiculous.
This episode also marks a new format for Two Cents: shorter summaries, sharper riffs, and even more chaos as Talon and Dan break the movie into three parts—the Beginning, the Middle, and the End.
If you like this new style, let them know—they just might keep it.

It’s October, and this month’s theme is Not Just Another Halloween Movie — because not every Halloween scare comes from Michael Myers.
Talon and Dan dive into Haunt (2019), a Halloween-night horror that trades mystery for mayhem and scares for splatter. We’re talking questionable choices, plot holes you could drive a hearse through, and a cast of characters that make every wrong move possible.
It’s got the right setup — creepy masks, an extreme haunted house, and a great atmosphere — but somewhere along the way, this one loses the plot. Literally. Join us as we break down what works, what doesn’t, and why this haunted house might’ve been scarier if we’d just stayed home.

It’s Halloween night in Brooklyn, and one lonely guy with a cardboard knight costume and a bowl of candy corn decides to attend a “Murder Party.” What could possibly go wrong? Talon and Dan break down Jeremy Saulnier’s cult horror-comedy Murder Party — complete with pumpkin bread fatalities, electric chainsaws, and more uses of the word “dildo” than any movie ever needed.
Join Two Cents We See Scary Movies as Talon and Dan wade through a blood-soaked night of pretentious art, questionable costumes, and surprisingly relatable chaos.

This week, Talon and Dan dive headfirst into The Deep House (2021)—because a haunted house wasn’t terrifying enough until someone decided to sink it underwater. As the duo descends into this flooded nightmare, they debate oxygen, ghosts, and the questionable life choices of people who think scuba diving into Satan’s basement is a good idea.
Get ready for dark humor, confusion, and just enough claustrophobia to make you rethink that next swim.
And don’t miss our second drop this week as Two Cents We See Scary Movies finally catches up and kicks off October’s theme, Not Just Another Halloween Movie. We might be late, but at least we’re showing up with Murder Party—streaming free on Tubi. Because nothing says “fashionably late” like blood, chaos, and questionable costumes.

Deep beneath the ocean, a Russian wreck, some “totally safe” vodka, and one hell of a fishy genetic experiment turn a mining crew’s last week into a nightmare. Talon and Dan dive into Leviathan (1989), a movie that somehow manages to mix sci-fi horror, monster mayhem, and corporate greed all in one soggy package.
From Six-Pack’s bad choices to Beck’s geologist-turned-reluctant-leader routine, we break down every confusing twist, gross mutation, and questionable decision — plus share our own thoughts on what it would really be like to face a monster stitched together from your coworkers.
New episodes drop every Tuesday. Be scared, be prepared, and don’t get caught in the dark.

This week on Two Cents We See Scary Movies, Talon and Dan take on The Black Demon (2023)—a shark horror film with an ancient curse, oil rigs, and a plot so confusing it might’ve knocked a few IQ points off along the way.
From supernatural legends to head-scratching twists, Talon admits this movie left her more confused than terrified, while Dan tries to make sense of the chaos. Is The Black Demon a deep dive into horror mythology or just another murky shark flick? We sort through the madness so you don’t have to.

This week on Two Cents We See Scary Movies, Talon and Dan dive headfirst into Shark Night (2011) — a movie that proves sharks aren’t the only predators in the water. From snuff-film schemes to rednecks with razor-sharp teeth, this lake vacation spirals into pure chaos.
Talon takes the lead on this one, breaking down every bloody scene and calling out the absurd shark physics, the nonsense “romance,” and why no one in their right mind would trust that flimsy diving cage. Dan’s along for the ride, weighing in on whether being bitten in half would actually be less stressful than dealing with his coworkers.
Buckle up for killer commentary, dark humor, and one very good dog who might just be the hero of the whole movie.

In this episode of Two Cents We See Scary Movies, Talon and Dan take a wild ride into Villains (2019), a dark comedy horror that blends twisted humor with home invasion chaos.
We break down the film’s offbeat characters, unsettling family dynamics, and the way it pushes the boundaries of horror and comedy. From unexpected laughs to tense standoffs, Villains delivers a story that’s just as strange as it is sinister.
Join us for scene-by-scene commentary, sharp humor, and a fresh perspective on one of horror’s most unusual modern entries.

On this episode of Two Cents: We See Scary Movies, Talon and Dan tackle He’s Out There (2018), a home invasion horror that… well, had potential. Set in a remote lakeside cabin, a mom and her two daughters face off against a mostly silent killer with a flair for arts and crafts, red string mazes, and elaborate doll setups.
Let’s just say: the movie raises some questions. Like, why does he carry around a picture book? What’s with the eggs? And why does no one ever check the back seat?
This one wasn’t exactly our favorite, but it definitely fits the August theme: Home Is Where the Horror Is. If you’ve ever wondered what would happen if Pinterest and trauma had a baby in the woods—this might be it.

We cover:
• The sharp-tongued dinner scene that turns bloody
• Why hiding behind a chair might not be your best survival tactic
• The family dynamics that are almost more brutal than the killers

It’s the first full-length episode of our new theme Home is Where the Horror Is — and we’re kicking it off with 2020’s The Rental, where the only thing more invasive than your creepy Airbnb host is your traveling companion’s moral compass.
Talon breaks down the entire film, scene by scene, complete with bad decisions, surveillance cameras, and one very unfortunate dog-napping. Dan’s off-mic for this one, but don’t worry — his judgmental spirit lives on in every awkward shower scene and suspicious text message.
Full breakdown, wild commentary, and plenty of bad behavior await in this dark and foggy coastal thriller.

In this episode of Two Cents: We See Scary Movies, Talon and Dan dive into the social media-fueled nightmare that is No Escape (also known as Follow Me). When a popular influencer heads to Russia for a livestreamed escape room experience, things quickly spiral from content creation to full-blown chaos. Is it all part of the show—or something far more sinister?
We explore the film’s commentary on clout-chasing, toxic fan culture, and the blurred line between performance and reality. It's influencer horror at its most unhinged, and we've got thoughts.

Welcome to Two Cents: We See Scary Movies, the podcast where horror meets hot takes and trauma comes with glitter. This week, Talon and Dan dive headfirst into the blood-soaked sparkle of Sissy (2022), the story of a self-help influencer whose idea of healing involves murder, hair dye, and a very poorly disguised grave.
Talon’s got thoughts on pink hair and performative kindness. Dan’s got jokes about make-believe funerals. And somewhere in between, we ask the real question: was any of this actually self-defense, or just an unhinged rebranding opportunity?
Cue the ribbon restraints, the trauma bonding, and that one cringey live stream.

In this episode of Two Cents: We See Scary Movies, we dive headfirst into the chaos of Deadstream (2022), a found-footage horror-comedy that turns livestreaming into a literal fight for survival. When disgraced YouTuber Shawn Ruddy locks himself in a haunted house to win back his fans, he quickly learns that views aren't worth dying for—and that ghosts don’t care about subscriber counts.
We break down the film’s satire on influencer culture, why this movie works surprisingly well despite its chaotic energy, and how Deadstream manages to balance jump scares with social commentary. It’s messy, meta, and just unhinged enough to keep us watching.
Featuring the theme “Influencers: When Going Viral Gets Violent,” this episode is part of our July lineup exploring the horrors of online fame.

Danielle’s brand is all about wellness and positivity—but when her old high school friends come knocking, so do the skeletons in her influencer closet. This week on Two Cents: We See Scary Movies, Talon and Dan kick off July’s “Influencers” theme with New Year, New You, a twisted take on curated identities, performative friendships, and how fast a vision board can turn into a crime scene.
We’re breaking down every scene, from the #SlayTheDay intro to that unhinged final act, talking about social toxicity, girl group dynamics, and why you should never trust a wellness coach with perfect lighting.

In this episode of Two Cents: We See Scary Movies, Talon and Dan dive into Exhibit A (2007), a chilling found-footage drama that slowly unravels the psychological breakdown of a suburban father. Filmed like a home video gone horribly wrong, this under-the-radar British horror story delivers a terrifyingly intimate look at domestic collapse.
How does the film build tension with such a slow burn? Why does the father's descent feel so disturbingly real? And does this fit our "Dads Are Deadly" theme… or blow it wide open? Let’s press play and find out.

What’s more terrifying than a killer dad? A killer dad who thinks he’s the perfect one. This week, we’re diving into The Stepfather (1987), where suburban bliss gets a bloody wake-up call. Jerry Blake just wants the perfect family—but if they disappoint him, he’ll just… start over.
Join Talon and Dan as they break down the red flags, the creepy charm, and the sheer horror of a man who takes “father figure” way too seriously. It’s part of our June theme, Dads Are Deadly, and this one earns its spot on the list.
Theme Music: Monster Within by Quinten Coblentz.
This week, we’re diving into The Clovehitch Killer (2018), a slow-burn psychological thriller about a teenage boy who starts to suspect that his all-American dad might be hiding something... like a history of murder. We talk about the film’s eerie tone, the impact of silence and suggestion, and how this movie flips the script on the classic serial killer narrative. Dan has opinions about family loyalty, and Talon has questions—lots of them.
New episodes every Tuesday as we explore horror films one theme at a time. June’s theme? Dads Are Deadly. And this one… might just be the most believable of them all.
