Tonight, join Mike, Matt & Andrew as they sit down with Ryan Powers and Jason Stamey of R U Mad At Me Productions to discuss their forthcoming horror movie Deluxe Ocean View.

Based on a screenplay by Powers, Directed by Laurence Vannicelli, shot in Dennisport and inspired by films like The Shining and Mulholland Drive, Deluxe Ocean View follows a renowned exposé journalist (Callan McAuliffe), who arrives at a nearly empty luxury resort for a career-saving interview, unaware that the hotel itself may be a malevolent force exposing buried truths before destroying its guests.

In a wide-ranging conversation, Ryan and Jason discuss the current landscape of horror cinema, shooting a horror film on Cape Cod, their work in Hollywood, starting their own production company, and relocating to Massachusetts.

Deluxe Ocean View stars McAuliffe, Camryn Manheim (“Scary Movie 3”), Henry Ian Cusick (“Lost”), Ray Campbell (“Breaking Bad”), and Ryan Powers (“She-Hulk: Attorney at Law”).

People tend to gravitate toward visuals and the vibes of a particular horror film, but forget those for a second -- how important is sound in a horror film? Whether it's the score, song choices, or musical stings to enhance a scare, sound remains one of horror's most underrated aspects. And tonight's topic covers all things auditory in the horror world.


Join Mike, Kat & Andrew for a breakdown of the aural sensation UNDERTONE, followed by a draft of the best Needle Drops in Horror Movie history.

What if your favorite non-horror movies were actually secret sequels to the scariest films ever made?
This week, Mike, Kat, Andrew, and Matt test that theory as they delve into fan fiction for the first time, connecting a classic horror movie to another film sharing the same actor.

For instance: imagine Jack Torrance didn’t actually freeze to death in the hedge maze; instead, the Overlook preserved him but shattered his mind. He escaped, took the name "Melvin Udall," and moved to a cramped NYC apartment to write romance novels. And there you have it—As Good As It Gets is officially the sequel to The Shining. 

You get the idea... or maybe you don't, but it was a wild discussion regardless. You’ll want to hear this one.

Plus, Mike & Andrew discuss BACKROOMS (spoiler-free), the horror-comedy sensation WIDOW'S BAY and the CAPE FEAR remake series.

Movie theaters. They're an essential component of how this podcast got started; loved by most, but visited less frequently by many. 

However, with the recent success of movies like Obsession & The Backrooms, it's clear horror may be the key to the future of moviegoing.

Join Mike, Kat, Andrew & Matt for a wide-ranging discussion on all things big-screen, including favorite snacks, the perfect spot to sit, theater etiquette and faux pas, best and worst experiences, the scariest moments they've had during a movie, and going back in time to experience never-before-seen classics.

Also covered: the best HORROR MOVIE MONTHS in the history of cinema, TALES FROM THE CRYPT is killing it on Shudder, and Joe Nesbo's DETECTIVE HOLE.

The concept of the movie double feature originated in the 1930s, and now, when you see a good pairing, it's tough not to carve out four hours for a gluttonous moviegoing soiree. 

But what makes a good double feature? What is the thought process for ensuring one film fits seamlessly with the next? 

Tonight, the AHH Crew sets out to get some answers, as they play a little game revolving around setting up the perfect double feature. Ever played Cards Against Humanity? Yeah, it's kinda like that.

But first: TALES FROM THE CRYPT heads to Shudder this Friday, and the unshakable dread of the short film DEAD GRANDMA.
