It's the HOLIDAY HORROR SEASON! This week for our final episode of the year we decided to pick some films that are around Christmas and involve kids. Whether they are out to take parents out, or their friends. We partake in the Christmas "Spirit" this week for the 2 horror films to review that you may or may not of seen. First we start off with The Children (2008). A movie about 2 sisters and their families that join together for Christmas in a far away cottage. While celebrating this special time together as a family the children start getting sick and start plotting to kill their own family. Then we take on a movie that Christina has been wanting to cover on the podcast. Super Dark Times (2017). A story about some kids in the 90's that live pretty average suburban lives until one day an accident happens between 2 best friends. It not only threatens their friendship, their love interest and maybe even their friends. We review both of these films and talk about some of their trivia and thoughts on the matter. JOIN US! We will return to the podcast in January for our Top Horror of 2023. We will be posting videos on Youtube steadily. Happy Holidays Everyone!

That's right. We gush over these films so if you haven't heard of them. Give this a listen. Watch them and come back for some of our signature "DEEP DIVES" into TERRIFIED (2017) and ANYTHING FOR JACKSON (2020) What does it all Mean!?!? You have probably heard Alex talk non stop about Terrified before, but if not. It's a supernatural haunted house horror from Argentina. Some of the best scares in modern days. Then we talk about Anything for Jackson (2020) which is made by a couple of guys high on Christmas Films who decided to put a horror movie out about an old couple who use a ritual to bring their dead grandson back. Things get pretty terrible as you can imagine. Two films that we think you need to support with all your horror love. JOIN US THIS WEEK!
One week before we hit Halloween month! Are you guys ready for a good week and an even better Halloween month!? This week we are gonna get started with some evil before the fun begins. That's right we watched and review 2 evil movies. We also give a shout out to a recent supporter and discuss this weeks preparing of VOIDTOBER! Then we jump into our evil flicks starting with MESSIAH OF EVIL (1973). Which is about a woman looking for her father but when she arrives to the town the town is overrun with strange people acting very oddly. She teams up with some random strangers to track her father down as a blood moon is about to shine on this Lovecraftian story. Then we review FEAR NO EVIL (1981). A film by Frank LaLoggia (his first in fact) about a young man named Andrew in High School who is the Antichrist. Can 2 reborn Angels wake up and save the world from Satan before everyone starts bleeding from the head? This week is pretty evil guys. JOIN US!
Pheewww this week is a doozy! Not only do we have some odd films for you, but we have one of the darkest HAPPY MONDAY segments we have done. Alex step past the point of taste (per usual) on this one. Then we jump into our reviews with some random Indie Sci-Fi Horror movies from Amazon Prime.. THE DARK LURKING (2009) about a distant future when an underground bunker is researching a dark secret dealing with gene splicing that ends up turning the entire underground population into grotesque creatures. It's up to an extraction team to pull the survivors out to safety before it's too late. Chock full of gore, bad dubbing and nods to other.. better films. Then we jump into a Sci-Fi Horror Anthology that is super budget called FUTURE FEAR (2021). Unlike the cover the story involves some sort of team of explorers from the future who find an ancient tome similar to the Necronomicon only with stories from current times about the future. It's chock full of homemade film making that is creative and a little too ambitious for it's budget. But we do our best.
This week we decided to check out some micro budget Horror Comedies that you can watch FREE! That's right, this week is all about Tumbleweeds and Vampires! We kick things off with a short talk about what we've been up to and Alex tells a few Bus stories. Then review the movie KILLER TUMBLEWEEDS (2008) about a news anchor hellbent on saving the world from killer Tumbleweeds that eat babies. Then we jump into Oops! You're A Vampire (2022). Which is a movie about 2 sisters and one of them turns into a vampire. The family helps feed her until they can no longer handle the mayhem. It's a fun wild episode this week. With loads of derailing and loads of appreciation for super indie films. JOIN US!
We are back for a Weird AF Wonders Episode of Rat People Proportions. That's right.. we review two movies that may just blow your mind. First we talk about RATBOY (1986) where a young teenage Rat "BOY" is found and exploited by a woman and her two brothers to become FAMOUS. However the story behind the movie may just be the more interesting story. So you will NOT want to miss the Spoiler Section on this one. It has some pretty wild trivia that Christina gets heated about involving Clint Eastwood? Yep. Then we discuss RAT MAN (1988) about a genetically engineered or rather human sperm induced rat baby starts shredding models on a jungle island. Enough to bring David Warbeck & Janet Agren (of The Beyond & City of the Living Dead Fulci Movie Fame) to save the day. There may be too much stinky cheese for both Alex & Christina to handle in this WEIRD AF episode. JOIN US!
This week we have a special guest all the way from Uranus. The Starship aka Nyq Bonaventura. Also known as one of Alex's best friends and great debaters. Some call him a Master Debater of the Universe and beyond. We just call him Nyq and he's a fan of a movie that he and Alex break down together. TERRIFIER 2 (2022) "After being resurrected by a sinister entity, Art the Clown returns to the timid town of Miles County where he targets a teenage girl and her younger brother on Halloween night." That's right Alex finally was backed into a corner by Nyq to not only watch it once but 2 times to see why he liked or disliked the movie. They both talk in depth about the movies up and downs in this audio orgasmic soundscape that will definitely blow you mind into another universe and out it's back side. Be prepared for a long talk about both of their opinions on this one.
Last week we watched a few new horror movies that were a bit unknown. So, we thought to pick some older movies that were known really well to make up for it. We watched and reviewed a classic Christmas movie that 80s kids grew up on. GREMLINS (1984) starring your lovable fury pal Gizmo voiced by the prolapse video sharing tiktok legend and 80s fame Howie Mandel. When a certain curious pets owner breaks a few very important rules things multiply into green creatures hellbent on mischief. Not to mention Zach Gallgan, Pheobe Cates and a ton of legends like Dick Miller. Since theres no way that we can watch that movie without watching the sequel. We decided to pair it with GREMLINS 2 The New Batch (1990). A movie that returns a lot of the stars from the first movie and throws in a bunch of legendary cameos and jokes to fill the movie. It's a bigger budget Gremlins in a Smart High Rise with some awfully green issues. JOIN US for LOADS of TRIVIA about Gremlins, our last episode this month before we return with a new year and our top movies of 2022.
It's that time of year! Holiday Horror Season! The Christmas horror movies that will tickle your jingle balls all night long. This week we picked a couple of newer indie films to try out. THE KILLING TREE (2022) About a serial killer who is executed for his deeds only to be resurrected by his serial killer lover and accidently transfered into a Christmas tree instead. The Tree goes on a holiday spree and I don't mean shopping. Next we watch and reiew JACK FROST (2022) No... no no.. not the killer snowman movie you might have heard of. The actual fictional Character Jack Frost who is turned into a mystical slasher creatures that smiles and kills everything in his path. Freezing people and cracking wisely at them when they are about to die. Both of these filims were made by the same studio and are both from England. See what we thought about them in this weeks episode! JOIN US!
Oh Boy! It's Faux Horror Doc Time. The historical kind too! Yep. Our friend Plemke donated some movies to put Christina through hell. No.. but maybe.. This week we watched and review The Last Broadcast (1998) the movie that actually beat The Blair Witch Project to the faux doc punch. About of a group of cable access guys researching LIVE the legend of The Jersey Devil but only one of them comes back alive. What happened to the others? We find out and talk about the movies historical value too. Then we take on a movie that had some troubles getting released. The Poughkeepsie Tapes (2007). Another faux documentary very much in the same vein as The Last Broadcast about thousands of torture tapes they find belonging to one of the most prolific serial killers of all time in the 90's. The end of this one may piss you off or just surprise you. We talk about both of these movies this week and why Christina is none too happy about it. JOIN US!

Two films that drew a lot of inspiration from the Evil Dead films. Chock full of witchcraft, demons and freaky stuff! That's right these movies are from Timo Tjahjanto.
