Osgood Perkins Triple Feature – Reviewed by The Jims

This week, The Jims willingly subject themselves to the strange, stylish, and extremely quiet nightmares of Osgood Perkins. They tackle the icy doom of The Blackcoat’s Daughter, the art-house witchiness of Gretel & Hansel, and The Monkey—a movie that proves even toy cymbals can be emotionally scarring. Along the way, The Jims question their own sanity, debate whether Perkins is a genius or just allergic to jump scares, and try to figure out why his movies always feel like bad dreams you can’t wake up from. It’s weird, it’s creepy, it’s hilarious… and somehow, they survived to tell the tale.

Get ready for chills and chuckles as The Jims premier their annual Halloween episode! In this special, they each share their top 5 picks for this year’s must-watch Halloween movies — from cult favorites and haunted classics to no-so-classic releases that deliver serious scares. Expect lively debate, spooky facts, and a few surprise recommendations you won’t see coming.

Turn down the lights, grab your candy bowl, and join The Jims for a fright-filled celebration of the best season for horror!

In this chilling episode of Fright Reels, The Jims dive deep into Monster: The Ed Gein Story — Netflix’s latest (and most controversial) installment in the Monster anthology. From graphic visuals to factual liberties, they pull apart what works, what fails, and what’s just reckless in this adaptation of real-life horror. Does Charlie Hunnam carry the weight of portraying one of America’s most infamous killers? When does the tone tip from horror-drama to grotesquerie? Which narrative choices stray too far, and do they add anything meaningful or merely shock value? If you like smart, unflinching horror criticism, this episode is for you. Join The Jims as they ask the hard question: Is Monster: The Ed Gein Story a serious meditation on evil, or just another show riding infamy for shock value?
