Released on 08/24/2023
In this episode Jef, Josh and Brian get to visit good old Castle Rock Maine once again and they couldn't be more excited! People are talking and very curious about the new store that just opened. What could it be? What do they sell? Who is the creepy freak that owns the place? Soon the town is getting super agitated by the arrival of this new stranger selling special things for dirty deeds. Not wanting to trade their souls for some estate sale trinkets, the Forever Midnight crew click their heels together and say Stephen King!, Stephen King!, Stephen King!

Ep- 257: Insidious: The Red Door.
Released on 08/10/2023
In this episode the FM3 sit down and talk about the newest installment in the Insidious franchise 'The Red Door". It seems just like poor Dalton the Forever Midnight crew have a case of the old brain fog aka "The Further Farts" when it comes to figuring out the timeline for these Insidious/Conjuring movies. Brian and Josh (especially) need some help from Patrick Wilson or at least from Patrick Wilson dressed as Ed Warren to "conjure up" some of the what's and how's and why's of all these very similar movies. So grab some popcorn, a flashlight (cause it's gonna get foggy up in here) and a nice comfortable seat as the guys talk about "Darth Maul goes to College''.
Ep- 256: Pulse (2001).
Released on 07/26/2023
In this week's episode the FM3 have a nice little techno-horror film plopped in their laps by one of their top level Patrons. "Pulse" AKA "Kairo" or "Circuit" in Japanese is an interesting take on the idea of ghosts and their relation to technology directed by Kiyoshi Kurosawa. Jef, Josh and Brian had never seen it before and were excited to have this one picked for them. This film follows two groups that discover evidence that ghosts might be trying to invade the human world via the internet. Its take on the sheer loneliness caused by our broken connections from using this technology seems light years ahead of what we all thought about the world wide web in 2001. So... hop on the internet as quickly as possible and listen in as the FM crew chat about this often overlooked Japanese Horror gem! For those of you that might have not seen this yet...Trigger Warning: (Suicide/Self Harm).Â
Ep- 255: Blood Diner.
Released on 07/12/2023
In this week's episode Jef, Josh and Brian almost Sheetar'd their pants when they were served up a movie just like an ancient Lumerian feast that they had been dodging forever. A top level Patreon Patron delivered the 1987 horror comedy "Blood Diner" for the crew to chew on. One thing the FM3 figured out very quickly is this movie is batshit crazy balls! One second you got a couple dipsticks knocking a security guards eyes out with a shovel, next they are taking orders from a brain in a jar, then they are shooting up an aerobics class to harvest body parts, and then they are deep frying fingers for vegetarians to munch on and all that's before the REAL wild shit starts! Sheetar help us!

Ep-252: TerrorVision.
Released on 06/08/2023
In this week's episode Jef, Josh and Brian head into the horny alternate 80's universe of the horror comedy TerrorVision! This movie truly has all the things the FM3 could ever want out of a horror film: Sci-Fi swingers getting their funky freak on, pretentious punkers turning into puke piles, unstable military nuts with enough ammunition to blow up the moon, a sloppy mess of a martian monster that loves assimilating humans just like Society's shuntings of yore and so much more!! This is one of those rare films that is truly so bad it's kinda...good. So hop in the hottub with your scary movie pals as they talk about this beloved cult classic! (In this episode the FM crew might talk about The Cure for about 14 minutes so feel free to fast forward if you just want to hear the TerrorVision chat.)

Ep- 251: Body Melt.
Released on 05/31/2023
In this week's episode, the FM3, get the hell out of Canada and find themselves in sunny Australia, the land of big bugs, jacked studs and ugly mugs! Well only ugly and jacked if you were one of the "actors" in the 1993 ozploitation film "Body Melt". For years the Forever Midnight Crew held high hopes that this movie would bring them a treasure trove of the grossest and goriest deaths to ever grace the silver screen. The holy grail if you will of juicy, slippery bodies turning into kangaroo stew movies. But once again, Jef, Josh and Brian learn some hard lessons when it comes to getting their hopes up and how quickly their hopes can split open and turn to shit like an overcooked hot dog. Enjoy!
Ep- 250: SLAXX.
Released on 05/24/2023
In this episode Jef, Josh and Brian find themselves back in the land of beautiful blue denim. That's right, you guessed it CANADA!! The crew is outside of an upscale clothing store waiting for their newest experimental Jeans to drop. But as the FM3 rush the doors to get their asses in some fancy pants they are met with a blood soaked army of killer denim. The guys have two choices: battle the blue jeans or figure out why the denim is on a murderous rampage. Quick decisions were made and the guys figured when would be the next time they could fight some haunted pants...So weapons were gathered and The Forever Midnight crew put up a good fight but alas the ghost pants kicked their butts and drank their butt blood. This episode is dedicated to the best damn horror podcast there ever was...hopefully they are looking down on you from the big jean shorts in the sky hoping you enjoy this episode.
Ep- 249: Urban Legend (1998).
Released on 05/16/2023
In this episode, Jef, Josh and Brian hop in the not so way-back machine and travel to the 1990's. The mission was to see the aftermath of a post "Scream" world where every studio and director just wanted the hottest young doofs in Hollywood and had a total and complete lack of ideas and love for the genre. The FM3 crash landed in 1998 trying to get there in time to disrupt the making of Urban Legend in hopes of ending the production but alas they were too late and they arrived on opening day September 25th, 1998. As they saw the young people pouring in to watch UL1, they decided to finally give it a watch...what you are about to hear is an account of what befell this group of horror podcasters, it is all more tragic that they were old and jaded and knew this movie was gonna be dog shit, but they could not have expected nor would they have wished to see any more "Scream" rip-offs. For them an idyllic time travelling afternoon would become a nightmare as they could not stop or reverse the ripples these types of films would make for years and years to come... Â
