 A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:57:33

The history behind this sequel is much more interesting than the film itself. We examine it in all its glory.

 High Tension | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:46:03

Alexandre Aja has a reputation for making extremely violent gorefests, and this one kicked it off for him. We have very mixed feelings about it.

 Phenomena | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:57:34

Dario Argento's films don't make a lot of logical sense, but they are so well-crafted and creative, with such beautiful imagery, that we'll overlook all that for style over substance. We both enjoyed this surreal and stunning tale about a psychic girl and her special insect friends.

 Get Out | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:05:39

Jordan Peele made a surprising turn from comedy to horror with this surprise hit that pushed all the right buttons. It's a suspenseful, timely, well-made, and absolutely chilling story of a black man who goes to meet his white girlfriend's family for the first time.

 A Christmas Horror Story | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:00:55

Better late than never! We kick off 2018 with a brief look back and Christmas with the EXCELLENT and supremely overlooked A Christmas Horror Story - starring William Shatner, among others!

 Better Watch Out | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:59:32

Season's Greetings! We absolutely loved unwrapping this holiday package. So go check it out now on your favorite streaming service and come back here for the full report.

 Dead Snow | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:58:27

Sorry for the lateness of this week's (last week's!) episode. In keeping with our holiday-ish theme, we went with a film that, although it technically takes place during Easter, should still put you in a holiday mood with all the snow, sweaters, and celebration. Red is the color of the season. Enjoy our take on the Norwegian horror film, Dead Snow.

 Child's Play | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:06:14

Child's Play is a classic, and one of the longest running movie series of all time. We revisit this classic from 1988 starring Chris Sarandon.

 Scout's Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:56:19

Take a high-school sex comedy, mix it with a modern zombie flick, and you'll get Scout's Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse, a request from loyal listener and previous guest Jordyn. Sorry we were a little slow getting it out this week.

 Of Unknown Origin | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:51:06

Rounding out Request Month comes a suggestion from Nick Sible about a killer rat.

 Dementia 13 (1963) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:58:08

Loyal listener Manuel requested this week's topic - another Roger Corman classic that also happens to be Francis Ford Coppola's first "legitimate" feature film. Filmed in 9 days for about $40,000, this film is not without its flaws, but really, what more can you expect?

 The Babysitter (2017) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:00:29

First, head over to Netflix to watch this right away. Then, drop back here to listen to our thoughts and see if you take our side over this somewhat divisive film directed by McG.

 Satan's Little Helper | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:03:26

This year, we scraped up this little-known flick with a mostly-unknown cast that happens to include Amanda Plummer. How she ended up in this turkey, we have no idea. The reviews online are kinder to this film than we ended up being. But you know Craig will give it a pass anyway.

 Cannibal Ferox | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:59:36

Umberto Lenzi died about a week ago. We pay tribute to his memory the way we tend to do on this show. That is, we review his most notorious film. We didn't say it was his BEST film. We said it was his most notorious. Here, from the man who originated the short-lived cannibal "genre" of trash cinema, is Cannibal Ferox.

 Something Wicked This Way Comes | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:01:43

Based on the novel by Ray Bradbury, from a script from Ray Bradbury, this was a bit of a dark turn for Disney at the time. We both love this film and we think you will too.
