At The Devils Ball

In our Halloween Special, we have a myriad of guests on to have a group discussion on SCARY STORIES TO TELL IN THE DARK, the 2019 film and the book series it is adapted from. The group discusses folklore, adolescence, and proper credit. Happy Halloween!

The week, the guys continue another Halloween month with another HALLOWEEN movie. This one has Busta Rhymes. They discuss reality shows, influencer culture, artistic integrity and whether or not Rhymes is out of focus when he delivers his most famous line. Enjoy!

A happy Friday the 13th to you and yours! The guys celebrate the day with a conversation on the 7th installment of the long running series, as well as wax nostalgic about the days when horror franchise pictures were fun and interesting. So smack your sleeping bag against a tree or whatever and join us!

The guys begin Halloween month with the Devil's Night cult-classic THE CROW! While opinions on the film differ, the guys manage to have a good conversation about the film's undeniable effect on a great number of people, character actors (as usual), and unusual aphorisms. Can't rain all the time. Or something.

The guys close out BACK TO SCHOOL month with DISTURBING BEHAVIOR, the 1998 "hip" horror/sci-fi mashup featuring a bunch actors making weird choices. Topics include sympathy for Katie Holmes, an appreciation for James Marsden, and trying to understand the nonsensical plot. CW: the film has some unsettling behavior towards Women, and it is discussed.

This week, the guys get sent to DETENTION, the delightful 2011 90's genre deconstruction/pop culture love letter. They discuss the charming performances, Nathaniel has an allergy attack, and discuss why MMMbop is, as the kids these days say, a "banger."

Back to School rolls on with the uneven but fun COOTIES. We attempt to discuss the occasionally uneven tone, the performers bringing a ton to developing their characters, and Sammaeal gives home improvement tips.

We begin our "Back To School" month (even though neither of us are students. Or Teachers. Sammaeal does work in a school though, so...) with 1998's THE FACULTY. We talk the stellar cast, awkward metaphors and themes, and Josh Hartnett's hair. It's guaranteed to jack you up*.

*Guarantee not guaranteed.

We're back! Mostly!

We begin our "season two" with NoTLD '90, a fun, exciting remake featuring an excellent cast and amazing pacing. We discuss our hiatus, how amazing Tony Todd is, and generally dig on the changes-both subtle and unsubtle-within Tom Savini's cult classic.

The guys finish up their high-speed chase down the MAD MAX series with FURY ROAD. Along with frequent guest Paul Steadman, the guys talk about female leads, battle tactics, and post-apocalyptic civilizations.
