Tonight Mike, Kat & Andrew are again joined by Chef Mike Wisdom of @theedgepizza to break down one of the most talked-about horror movies of the year, The Monkey!

Directed by Oz Perkins, Produced by James Wan & based on a short story by Stephen King, it's needless to say this movie comes with pretty high expectations. It follows twin brothers (both played by Theo James) whose lives are turned upside down by a cursed toy monkey that causes random horrific deaths around them. 

This is one wacky, wild, movie that feels like a lost episode of Tales from the Crypt, and you can rent it at home now!

But first: COMPANION, THE WOLF MAN, the newest season of BLACK MIRROR, and thoughts on the audiobook of THE SHINING.

Remember: YOU ARE ONE. And tonight, join Mike, Kat & Andrew as they break down the most talked about horror movie of 2024, The Substance!

Directed by Coralie Fargeat & starring Demi Moore, Margaret Qualley & Dennis Quaid, The Substance is the seventh horror film to be nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars, putting it in some elite company beside films like Jaws, The Exorcist & The Silence of the Lambs. 

The plot follows an fading celebrity, Elisabeth Sparkle (Moore), who, after being fired by her producer (Quaid) due to her age, uses a black market drug that creates a younger version of herself (Qualley) with unexpected side effects. Leave the plot details at that, and go in as blind as possible to experience this batshit insane movie.

EPISODE 246 LIVE

Tonight, Mike & Kat are joined by their Producer, the great Shaun O'Loughlin (@sjoloughlin) to discuss the 2020 cult-classic, The Empty Man!

Despite the terrible title, this is a criminally underrated film that was essentially a casualty of the pandemic and the acquisition of 20th Century Fox by the Walt Disney Company. It follows an ex-cop who, upon an investigation into a missing girl, discovers a secret cult. 

Also, please check out Shauno's short story "Stay on Trail," which was recently adapted in audio form for Season 22 Episode 7 of the No Sleep Podcast (@nosleeppodcast).

Tonight, Mike, Kat & Matt are joined by Chef Mike Wisdom (@_cookwithwisdom) to discuss the 1988 cult-classic, Killer Klowns from Outer Space!

The film follows, well...a bunch of Killer Klowns from Outer Space. Let's not overcomplicate things. And while not a huge success when first released, KKfOS has gained more notoriety from being featured at Halloween Horror Nights, a recently released video game, and grumblings of a long-awaited sequel.

BUT FIRST: RIP David Lynch, RED ROOMS, THE CREEP TAPES, THE THING REMASTERED video game, and much, much more.
