Fright Night (2011)
Released on 11/07/2025
What vampiric activities happen in Vegas often stay in Vegas… until now!! That’s right, we’re going beyond The Strip to the suburbs of Glitter Gultch to be neighborly with the new vamp in town as we cover the 2011 remake of FRIGHT NIGHT!! Along the way, we dig into 2000s remake culture, discuss how the housing bubble burst enriches this teen vampire thriller, unpack what makes one Charley Brewster “so cool” and another an annoying jerk, and get thirsty on main over Colin Farrell and Toni Collette!! All this, plus the return of Count Orlock and his shoe fetish, Midori addiction, the importance of being a dweeb, spray-on hair, bad vampire planners, stealing from Children of Men, giving Amy something to do, and a sunny new edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!! This episode is move-in ready!!

The Substance (2024) redux
Released on 11/04/2025
Have you ever dreamt of a better version of this podcast? What about a world where you can now watch this movie on HBO MAX? We did, so we injected our format with Cronenberg’s The Fly, Street Trash, Re-animator, and… 2001: A Space Odyssey, and we’re re-releasing this episode to celebrate! That’s right, we’re ready to pump it up all over again for the body horror flick of 2024: Coralie Fargeat’s audacious and bodacious film, THE SUBSTANCE!! Along the way, we start spoiler-free before giving birth to a conversation covering an avalanche of butts, Hollywood Walk of Fame orientation, severe trypanophobia, Sudden Oatmeal Syndrome, and rank the worst men in this movie from worst to F That Guy!! All this, plus we worship at the altar of Demi Moore, hate on cookbooks, pay for billboard views, finger shrimps, and show off an explosive edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!! Work it, people!!

Trick or Treat (1986)
Released on 10/31/2025
Death to false podcasts!! We’re spinning this record backwards to summon the spirit of Hair Metal Past as we talk about 1986’s TRICK OR TREAT!! Along the way, we examine why the film believes metal fans were a targeted minority in 80s high schools, explore Gene Simmons’ scariest role, rage against the Dino De Laurentiis machine, and celebrate our new favorite horror icon: Sammy Curr played by the great Tony Fields!! All this, plus finger-licking shockers, bullied weenies, speaker veins, unfinished bedrooms, horsehead bookends, ear-melting orgasms, toilet traps, and a guitar-shredding edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!!

Creepshow vol 5 redux (w/ Wynter Mitchell)
Released on 10/28/2025
You might think that revisit of CREEPSHOW is crawling to a halt, but actually, it's just getting (re)started!! That's right, for our final episode covering the “They’re Creeping Up On You!” segment, we invited our dear friend and Returning Champion, Wynter Mitchell, on the show to help us squash all of our creepy and crawly concerns!! We discuss cockroach farming techniques, explore why the Jerry Lewis telethon was such required viewing, pitch MTV’s Joe’s Apartment as a Broadway show, and evaluate E.G. Marshall’s pajama game. All this, plus we bug out on Choose Your Own Deathventure and end up deciding what body parts we’d collect in jars. Yep. That’s the kind of episode this is, people. Talking about Creepshow for five weeks in a row has truly broken our brains for the funnier. Join us, won’t you?

It Chapter Two (w/ Jenn Adams)
Released on 10/24/2025
We’ve dealt with all kinds of franchise highs and lows, but when a film series only has two parts, any dip can feel like falling off a cliff. And that’s where we meet up to discuss the sequel and conclusion to one of the biggest horror hits of the 21st century, IT CHAPTER 2!! Here to help us - the only podcast to ever discuss Stephen King and his works at great length on a podcast - is writer and Returning Champion, Jenn Adams (The Loser’s Club podcast)!! Along the way, we discuss how Derry gets removed as a character, wonder why Mike gets left behind in the story, get free run of the local B&B, and explore what went right and what went wrong as we shift to the adult version of the Losers! All this, plus super lepers, head spiders, Street Fighter flirtations, bad love triangles, King bullies, gross cookies, and a tastemaking edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!! Find out what floats down here with us today!!

Creepshow vol 4 redux (w/ Blake Fichera)
Released on 10/21/2025
There’s a whole lot to unpack on this week’s revisit of our episode unlocking "The Crate" segment of CREEPSHOW with Scored To Death author and documentarian J. Blake Fichera! Along the way, we consider the coding of Henry and Dexter’s relationship, we expound upon the actual nature of boxed Yeti powers, we pour ourselves some Booze Milk, then consider who qualifies as a “sack of wet,” and debate whether The Crate Creature is actually the second half of a Strangers On A Train-like murder swap! All this, plus a fantasy-infused edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure, and Billie introduces the world to the Pittsburgh Laverne! Open up and say AAHHH!!! with us today!!

Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982)
Released on 10/17/2025
With just fourteen more days ’til Halloween, you know it’s the right time to slap that Silver Shamrock mask on and win a big prize!! That’s right, we’re talking road beers, laser mouths, and 1982’s HALLOWEEN III: SEASON OF THE WITCH!! No Michael Myers, no problem!! We’re digging into the details of how this film zagged on the Halloween formula, cemented Tom Atkin’s “f-boy” status, lost and gained entire creative teams, and rose from the box office ashes to claim cult classic status!! All this, plus dipsticking automotons, Stonehenge importation, improbable costuming, femobot swaps, Cheese-wiz cascades, disappointed ex-wives, white patent leather shoe enthusiasts, and the most Oogy-Boogy-filled edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure to date!! This episode is all-new, slightly anti-Irish, and entirely vermin-filled for your pleasure!! Check it out!!
