High School Slumber Party

Happy Halloween and Feliz Dia de Los Muertos! For the final installment in our Women in Horror series, we're chatting about two characters who are different kind of "final girls" in 2017's Tragedy Girls. The film examines what it's like to be on the other side of a horror film plot and is framed perfectly for today's true crime generation. Stopping by the slumber party to chat about it are two CageClub Podcast Network veterans: the Godfather himself, Joey Lewandowski (2 Fast 2 Forever) and Jordan Polan-Clarke (Wistful Thinking). Also, find out what we'll be eating the morning after Halloween as Kyle Reinfried (Foodie Films) finally makes his choice for best Halloween cereal!

Jennifer's Body could very well be the most misunderstood film of its generation, but is it as underrated as people say it is? Brian is joined by first time guest Aislinn Addington (The Contenders) to feast on the flesh of Karyn Kusama and Diablo Cody's 2009 tale of a demon-possessed high school cheerleader (Megan Fox) and her nerdy best friend (Amanda Seyfried) as we continue our Women in Horror series! Also, Kyle Reinfried (Foodie Films) eats even more Halloween-themed cereal! Does the CageClub Podcast Network provide dental insurance?

Slay, girl! We're chatting about Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No, not the hit TV show, but rather the 1992 film that preceded it. Cara Gael O'Regan (Wistful Thinking) returns for the latest Halloween-themed entry in our women in horror series. Find out all of the differences between the show and the film, how Brian and Cara feel about Joss Whedon disowning it, Luke Perry, Paul Reuben's death scene, and everything else that makes this cult classic so fun! Also, Kyle Reinfried (Foodie Films) is back and he's eating more cereal.

Hallo! Our Women in Horror series continues with a very chilling and rare piece of European cinema. Der Fan (aka The Fan) is about a teen obsessed with a pop star. It’s German, it’s haunting, and the music is unforgettable. Frau Alexandra Schroeder is back to chat about all of the film’s new wave weirdness. If you haven’t done your homework and tracked this one down, you will be after you stop by the Slumber Party this week. Also, Kyle Reinfried of Foodie Films is back with another Halloween cereal opinion.

Hope you enjoyed last week's episode about The Slumber Party Massacre because the Driller Killer is back! (Sort of...) Is the killer real, or is he a figment of our heroine's imagination? You be the judge after stopping by for Slumber Party Massacre II. Someone who isn't a figment of our imagination is Mike Manzi (Third Time's A Charm), and he's back as well to break down all the music and mayhem this sequel has to offer as we continue our Women in Horror series. The Foodie Films man himself, Kyle Reinfried, also returns to chow down on another monster cereal!

In many ways, The Slumber Party Massacre is the perfect film for High School Slumber Party. It has slumber party right in the name. It’s written, directed and produced by women, so it’s the ideal film to open up our Women in Horror Series. And it’s part of a trilogy, giving us a chance to bring back the Tsar of the Third Film, Mike Manzi, to hash out all of the jump scares, screams, and gore as the Driller Killer stalks a group of teenagers at a sleepover in this b-horror classic. Also, the Foodie Films man himself, Kyle Reinfried, is here to help us decide on a Halloween breakfast cereal.

Is there a better cure for the autumn blues than Varsity Blues? Hope you read the playbook because first-time guest Kirkland Shephard is under center to chat about the Texas high school football classic. Staring James Van Der Beek, Paul Walker, and Jon Voight, Varsity Blues lit up teenage Friday nights for a significant segment of turn-of-the-century teens.

What's your favorite scary movie? Is it Scream? If so, you're really going to enjoy this episode! Brian welcomes back returning guests Dan and Autumn Ferrara to usher in the early Halloween season once again. Have a listen on this very spooky Friday the 13th as we chat about the star-studded cast of Scream, self awareness, and dare we say ICONIC structure that set the bar for teen movies at the turn of the century.

Way way back in 2013, CageClub co-founders Mike Manzi (#CruiseClub) and Joey Lewandowski (2 Fast 2 Forever) went to the movies to see an indie darling of a film, fresh off its Sundance run, which just so happens to be the same film we are talking about today: The Way Way Back, starring Liam James, Steve Carrell, Toni Collette and Sam Rockwell. Find out if Joey and Mike feel the same as they did when they first saw it on our end of summer (and possibly end of summer school) slumber party.

The Godfather, Joey Lewandowski (2 Fast 2 Forever), returns to talk about a different kind of teen film: Never Goin' Back. While our main heroes Angela and Jessie aren't currently in high school (as they are seventeen-year-old dropouts), their coming of age experience is a story that is just as important to tell. Also, Brian breaks his silence on the future of the Spider-Man series.
