Don't Split Up!

Is Cocaine Bear the best movie of 2023 (so far)? More than one of our hosts thinks so. We dive into this drug-fueled fever dream of a creature/slasher flick. What makes it work? And why? Plus, we dive into the idea of an intentional B-movie. What do they need to do to work?

M3GAN is the latest incarnation of AI horror. Just how scary is she? The gang dives into this latter-day Child's Play... or is it a Frankenstein story? Plus, we review James Wan's filmography (because even though he didn't direct this one, he produced it). And just how scared of AI should we be?

Your favorite horror podcast is back! Welcome our new co-host Mackenzie Gill, and our returning co-host Mo Zahedi. For our first episode back, we dive into M. Night Shyamalan's latest film A KNOCK AT THE CABIN, starring David Bautista. How does the film rank in Shyamalan's canon? And how does it compare to the original book, Cabin at the End of the World? 

A mutant priest who wages war on heavy metal? Sounds like the perfect movie for JR. - a pastor who used to be in a metal band. JR. sits down with Tim Connery, writer/director of DEATH TO METAL. They talk about the similarities and differences between Christianity and metal, and how Tim brought such nuance to a film that could have settled for quite a bit less.

The Death of April is a new, very creepy found footage horror film set in 2002. JR. sits down with writer/director Ruben Rodriguez to discuss the film's long journey to the screen. Pay special attention to how Ruben got such realistic performances out of his actors.

JR. brings you a special installment of Don't Split Up! With the (ahem) advent of a new Christmas horror-comedy anthology called THE CHRISTMAS TAPES, JR. sits down with legends Vernon Wells and Dave Sheridan. Expect conversations about why horror is so great, the work of acting and the surprising connections between horror and comedy.
