Episode 461 – Fruit Salad Trilogy

Released on 08/04/2023

Movies discussed: Unwelcome, Children of the Corn (2023), There’s Something Wrong With the Children, The Changing Room (short)

After the last monster-size episode, we’re happy to dig deeper into three movies this week, each featuring antagonists under 5 feet tall. Our mileage varies on Children of the Corn and Something’s Wrong with the Children, but the Gremlins-meets-Jim-Henson’s-Storyteller style of Unwelcome charms us all.

Behold the monster episode that covers our Chattanooga Film Festival experience! We watched so much stuff y’all. In the interest of time and everyone’s sanity, we tried to focus on the stuff we liked best out of what we saw. As a result, you get an episode with reviews of mostly positive things for you to look forward to, which is more fun and useful. Thanks for being patient with us in the delay getting this one out, we had some technical difficulties. Enjoy!

Episode 454 – Have Your Egg Bags Ready

Released on 04/12/2023

Movies discussed: Nocebo, Leave, The Witch: Part 1 – The Subversion, Midnight Snack (short)

This week we dig all of Nocebo, half of Leave, and think The Witch would be better if it weren’t only half a movie.

Also, this week we saw the most appalling, soul-rending and disgusting thing we’ve ever seen in our 11 years of horror movie watching. It wasn’t blood, guts or gore, either. Just four words and two hyphens: Hard-boiled eggs and 7-Up.

Next episodes assignments: Panic Fest 2023!

Yeah we’re gonna plow through as much content as we can in the Virtual Festival. You should too!

We’re back in the saddle and hyped to talk about Scream VI – is it the best sixth installment of a horror franchise ever? Could be! We’re also pretty sold on M3gan and can’t wait for M3g4n. We Have a Ghost…well, it’s charming, but got a little Netflix’d in the delivery.

Nocebo
