The Dames are wrapping up Spooky Movie Season with a chat about haunted houses. This week we dive into The Changeling (1980), Poltergeist (1982), and The Others (2001).
We also get a wee bit emotional over the end of Our Flag Means Death season 2.
The Dames carry on with Spooky Season and discuss Gothic horror, where the ghosts are metaphors and the horror is for love. Deborah Kerr goes mad in The Innocents, Vincent Price has an unhealthy attachment to his dead wife in The Tomb of Ligeia, and nothing is OK at Crimson Peak.
Join us this week as we dive into urban horror and urban legends with The Lost Boys (1987), Candyman (1992), and Urban Legend (1998).
This week, the Dames fill a podcast blindspot and talk all about witches, focusing on Haxan, The Witches of Eastwick, and The Witch. These films encompass feminism, patriarchal fears, justifiable homicide, cool curses, and Jack Nicholson's tiny tiny ponytail.
This week the Dames are finishing out Back to School Month and welcoming Spooky Movie Season with the perfect combination: high school horror movies. We're talking Massacre at Central High (1976), The Craft (1996), and I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997).
We carry on with our back-to-school discussing some movies set in kindergarten, including Kindergarten Cop and Little Monsters.
Plus, some more Garbage People we hope we don't have to talk about again:

Autumn is in the air and this month is all about school-time movies. This week we're going back to middle school with EIGHTH GRADE (2018), ARE YOU THERE GOD? IT'S ME, MARGARET (2023), and YOU ARE SO NOT INVITED TO MY BAT MITZVAH (2023). Give us a listen and relive the great and dreadful middle school years!
We're back this week to discuss the back-to-school films of Amy Heckerling! Heckerling is responsible for some generation-defining movies: Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Clueless, and Loser.
Plus: Danny Masterson is going to jail for a long, long time.
The Dames take some time to catch up on all the things we've been watching, including:
Come for the trenchant commentary, stay for the correct pronunciation of Demeter.
