Summary: We're just two die-hard horror fans presenting new thoughts and takes on both favorite and obscure horror films from yesterday to today. We watch and review one horror movie a week from the perspective of fun, with a lot of film criticism thrown in.

We hold mixed feelings about Fred Dekker's dated but charming send-up to classic sci-fi and horror films. But it's worth a watch if you love everything about those movies. And James Gunn (Slither, Guardians of the Galaxy) owes a LOT to this movie...
Happy 4th of July! This episode has no relation to the holiday, but we thought we'd say it anyway. While you reminisce on 'merica, why not take a trip back in time to the 80's with us today to Rob Reiner's (and Joel Schumacher's) classic film, The Lost Boys.
This week, we dip back into the Wes Craven collection for what is arguably the very best film in the series - the super-meta mindbender that is Wes Craven's New Nightmare.
Not gonna lie: We loved this movie to death, and can't imagine any horror fan who wouldn't go crazy over the clever, funny, and supremely touching film that is The Final Girls. From beginning to end, it took us on a roller-coaster of emotions. And maybe we cried a little bit at the end? Just a little bit...
Consider the tag line: "You see them on the street. You watch them on TV. You might even vote for one this fall. You think they're people just like you. You're wrong. Dead wrong." Could a film from the 80's possibly be more timely today than John Carpenter's "They Live"?
Deadly Friend is the third Wes Craven film we've reviewed this year in the wake of his death.
Anyone out there heard of Ravenous? We thought not. This almost forgotten flick featured an all-star cast and a strong story, but flew almost completely under the radar. We unearth this unique gem and talk about what makes it so fun - and funny.
Sorority House Massacre 2 may be an exercise in boobs and ridiculousness, but it has a few tricks up its sleeve for those with the patience to sit through some atrocious acting and skimpy outfits.
Pet Sematary is beginning to show its age. Once considered one of the better of the Stephen King adaptations, we take some issue with that notion while still admiring a compelling story and one fantastic actor.
Todd is a big Jim Wynorski fan, and recommends this movie as a gateway into his cornball, highly entertaining earlier films, straight from Roger Corman's shop.
Funny Games is a shot-for-shot American remake of the 1997 Austrian film by the same director, Michael Haneke.
Craig and I have a divided opinion over this rare love-it-or-hate-it movie that's often described as "a live-action Scooby Doo." Not to be confused with the 1986 American horror film "House", or its comedy-horror sequel, "House 2".
It's a Godzilla movie told shaky-cam-style from the ground level, and we both agree it's pretty rad. Todd hadn't seen this one before, believe it or not.
If John Hughes directed horror films instead of angsty teen comedies, his first film would've been The Loved Ones. It's ultra-violent, but we found a surprisingly complex message beneath all the gore.
Currently out in the theaters now, The Witch wears its heart on its hand-sewn, river-washed sleeve. It reminded us of The Crucible - both in its content and in its pacing.
