Horror and a Half

We've got some Pillion discussion, and some invisible WW2 hijinks before we go to the theater again for Obsession! Make a wish, cook a cat, walk all fucked up, read your incest book, HAVE PROBLEMS!!!!!

There's always more Universal monsters, and teenage wolf television, and... radioactive snake arms? I am being told that there's actually NOT a lot of radioactive snake arms, my mistake. Then we're back to theaters to discuss Hokum! Take a miserable Irish vacation with us as we discuss drugging goats, whether we can be trapped in a room, and thieving witches.

We've got a wild one for you this week! Kelly has a brand new mummy to tell you about, Rose has a bug nuts YA novel, and we both have a haunted subway station that we're ready to just leave! Then we have a real solid chuckle at the expense of 2025's The Carpenter's Son! Huddle in a cave house with us as we discuss tree weirdos, bizarre marriages, Jesus brain blitzing someone, and Snake Snacks.

(Once again, there are some audio issues in the episode, apologies.)

We're still alive! At least as I write this! Anyway, we have some invisible women, and mean mall women, and hit and run women to talk about before we talk about another Satanist fighting woman with They Will Kill You! Join us for a trifle as we talk pig heads, lacks of shoes, and fighting.

(There's a bit of an audio issue in the last 20 minutes or so, sorry.)

How -does- March end? We try and figure it out as we discuss disappointing novels, mummy sequels, and circling back to The Bride! Then, we keep hanging out in the theater to discuss Ready or Not 2! Run around some hallways with us as we chat about good siblings versus evil siblings, thematic weight of subtitles, and fun devil lawyers

We've got invisible guys, evil werewolves, and bad cross overs, and then we have an Oscar nominee! We're talking The Ugly Stepsister, so don't eat the eggs, don't throw the cake, and don't try to get the shoe to fit!

Quick first note: we have some audio issues from about 43 minutes to a hour and 16 minutes. I've fixed it as best I can, but there may be some echo and/or some loudness. Sorry!

We've got a bunch of movies to talk about again (plus a not-good YA novel), so I hope you're ready for evil whistles, also evil hitchhikers, celebrating Ygor showing up, finding out which parts of Rose count as part of her, and cheap dummies. Then we're flashing back to 1958 to discuss The Blob! Hot rod around with us as we discuss secret cigarettes, running out of movie theaters, and the greatest song ever written.

We've got some vampire daughters and 2005 mysteries and Panhandle ghosts for you this episode, before we find ourselves stranded once again at the local multiplex, this time with Send Help! Survive a plane crash with us as we discuss boar snot, repetitive story structure, and Survivor.

Hope you like hearing about A Lot of movies because I (Kelly) have a ton to capsule my way through, before we discuss last year's Queens of the Dead! Shelter in place with us as we discuss this shaggy, character-filled, queer as hell little comedy.

Happy 2026! Horror and a Half is starting its 13th (!!!) year with the promise the keep doing the same thing, like telling you about television for children, bad movies about AI, and the hauntedest airmen. This we vow! And then we're digging straight into a brand new release, Primate! Hop into your infinity pool with us as we rip some faces off, wonder about chimp house smell, and one of us prooooobably overthinks things.
