Here is another episode from our cabin trip. This week we are discussing one of Ryan’s favorite entries in what he believe is one of the stronger horror franchises, Child’s Play 2. And in case you’re wondering, this movie was infinitely better than White Chicks.
Enjoy!
Ti West was always going to have a tough time living up to the hype after giving us two of the best horror films in recent memory with X and Pearl. Maxxxine looked like it had the chance to exceed all expectations, but could it stick the landing, or did Ti West do what Ti West does, and focus on style over substance? Obviously we will give you our take, but that doesn’t mean it’s correct.
Enjoy!
This week we are discussing the horror/comedy from 1996, The Frighteners. Though there is enough from that movie to fill an episode, we also talk about a lot of the other movies we’ve been watching lately. And like most things we watch, some of them are good, and some a really really bad.
Enjoy!
This week we are talking about the new sequel to a rebooted franchise, Evil Dead Rise. We were all a little let dead by the first one, but we were holding out hope that the new would could surprise us a little. Ther’re a lots of opinions, both high and low, but you’ll just have to listen to see where we came down on the movie as a whole.
Enjoy!
This is the last of our episodes from the “Cabin Chronicles II”, and it watching The Final Girls was one of the high points of the weekend. A tongue-in-cheek send up of slasher movies that avoids many of the cynical pitfalls that a lot of parody movies fall into. An excellent movie to watch with a group of friends.
Enjoy!
This week is a very special episode with a very special guest. A huge thanks to Ryan L. Terry for immediately elevating the quality of our show. Truth be told, he is definitely too smart to be clowning around with us, but we appreciate him bringing his mad knowledge and love of the slasher genre as we discuss Scream 6. There isn’t a good way to write the title out the way the marketing team wanted, where we turn the “M” into a “VI”. Even trying to explain seems silly, but the this episode is top shelf.
Enjoy!
Here is another fine episode from the “Cabin Chronicles” series. While Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan isn’t a ver good movie, the episode that movie spawned is pretty solid. Plus it was late, and we were all a little loopy, so you know that helps. Maybe next time we will let people outside the show pick all the movies.
Enjoy!
When we go to the woods to watch a bunch of movies, we don’t really like to pick winners and losers. That said, if we were to choose, Ryan’s selection, From Beyond, would undoubtedly be the winner. It really does have it all, and we are all better people for having watched it. God bless practical effects, especially the ones in this film.
Enjoy!
We’ve never been so grateful about the title of the movie. Also, we talk about an actual good horror film, Barbarian. Please see one, and ignore the other.
Also, welcome to the Cabin Chronicles Vol. 2
Enjoy!
Our plan was to do a movie night and then record on the new Hellraiser movie that was just released on Hulu. However, it turns out that 75% had never seen the original, so we decided to pivot and now this week is all about the disgustingly wonderful 1987 film, Hellraiser. This is, hands down, one of the squishiest movies of all time. God bless practical effects.
Enjoy!
Well…the first Wishmaster movie was an absolute delight, so the 2nd one has to at least be okay…right? I mean, right?! It has to at least be a vague shadow of the original? It can’t just be a terribly thrown together movie that barely looks like a SyFy original, right? That wouldn’t be too much to ask, right? Maybe we should have just wished for a better sequel. Nothing bad every happens from making a wish… …right?
Enjoy!
This week we do a quick catch up on a couple of recent films to hit theaters. Both movies are dumb, but “dumb” is a pretty wide spectrum, and these two movies really show how different dumb movies can be. There is usually some petty disagreements on the show, it is kind of part of our charm, but this go round we were pretty much on the same page. It is very unusual and probably won’t happen again.
Enjoy!
This is the last episode from our cabin weekend and we are finishing up the “Cabin Chronicles” with arguably the biggest hit of the weekend, Psycho Goreman. To say that those of us who hadn’t seen it were surprised would be an understatement. We strongly encourage anyone with any interest this film to watch it first, because I am not sure that our outbursts about random parts of this film will properly convey how much fun we had watching it.
Enjoy!
Killer robots, frisky 20somethings, …the mall. The 80’s really were a magical time to be alive. This absolute treasure was a blast to watch during our cabin weekend, and if this podcast can convince at least one person to watch it who may have never seen it, than all of this will have really been for something.
KILLER ROBOTS…IN THE MALL!
Enjoy!
We just can’t quit talking about horror movies, though this one surprised us. We all seemed to remember what this movie was about, but it definitely hit harder for us this time around. I know the movie didn’t change, but we certainly have since this movie was released in the 90’s. Plenty to talk about before we take a break from horror for a minute. Before you know it we will be gearing for another Hallmark Christmas episode. Enjoy!
Here is a nice double feature to keep our October movies going. Maybe they aren’t technically “horror”, but there are still plenty of jumps and scares, so we are adding it to the list. There are a lot of weird choices they make in this series, and we like some and hate others, as characters and their motivations seem to change a lot . We hope everyone has a great Halloween, and that you are watching only the best scary movies to stay in the mood.
Enjoy!
I am not sure I will ever understand why Netflix decided to release the Fear Street trilogy in the middle of the summer instead of in October, but I am sure some algorithm told them it would be more successful that way. Whatever the reason, we decided to wait until the spookiest month before we released our episode on the three movies. If you’ve ever listened to this show before, you may know that Roy is very particular about the naming of sequels, and we barely get through the opening before he makes his feelings known. Guess you’ll have to listen to the rest to find out how we felt about the actual movies.
Enjoy!
When I used to work in a video store, I remember that there would be full sections of one particular title, if it was a big enough movie. There was also a row full of single title films, and this is usually where your low budget horror films would end up. Netflix, as a way of replacing video stores, seems to be making both types of movies. I know that you might see that In the Tall Grass is a horror movie based on a Stephen King story, and think that this would have been the kind of movie that gets a whole section at the video store, but I promise you, this is a “single title” film all the way. I hope you like movies that only take place in a field.
Enjoy!
This week we take a look at two “horror” movies that were released this summer. To be completely honest, I was more than a little surprised at the way people came down on these two films, but I think it makes the show even more entertaining. And maybe, as we talk about the movies, opinions were changed a little. If you’ve seen either of these movies, we would love to hear your opinion!
Enjoy!
This week we take a look a two recent horror films, Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark and Ready or Not. Did these well reviewed movies meet our expectations, or end up leaving us feeling a little bit cold? As per usually Sean will get hung up on the weirdest little things, and Drew will argue with Sean about getting hung up on the weirdest little things.
Enjoy!
