Horror Brew Podcast

Autumn is built for anthologies and binging horror TV.

Tune in as Matt and Cat talk Hulu's Castle Rock and the successful stage show turned feature film, Ghost Stories (2017).

This cocktail can be served hot or cold. What you'll need:

3oz Mulled Cider

2oz Rum

If hot: warm cider in a saucepan on the stove or microwave. Pour rum into a coffee mug and top with hot cider and a sprinkle of cinnamon.

If cold: pour room temperature or cold cider and rum in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake and strain into a chilled martini glass garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon

In which Matt and Cat get back at it! After a quick introduction as to what the hell we've been up to for the last 2 months, we dive in to a conversation with Willy Greer that we recorded back in mid July!

We talk about his short film, feature project, horror music, social commentary, and just about everything we love about exploring the genre. Interested in buying his book, Shadowplay: Philosophy and Psychology of the Modern Horror Film? Check out his film commentary podcast, Film Cult, and his feature film, Second Skin!

Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and pour in the following

1oz Vodka

1oz Manischewitz Blackberry Wine

1oz Strawberry Pucker

Shake and strain into a chilled martini glass

We are not afraid of these Satanic Shamblers - but they are fun to watch!

Tune in as Matt, Cat, and fellow horror podcaster Sammy take a trip back in time and across the ocean to loudly discuss Amando de Ossorio's Blind Dead franchise.

Tombs of the Blind Dead / Return of the Evil Dead / Ghost Galleon / Night of the Seagulls

"Scream, so they can find you!"

In which Matt and Cat wish HGTV did more with haunted mansions.

Tune in for a discussion of the 1980 classic The Changeling as well as a spoiler free review of 2018's Marrowbone (we did not link anything for this film because we strongly advocate watching it with no preconceived notions! It's available for rent through Amazon Prime).

Tune in as Chloë Levine, star of THE RANGER, joins us in studio to talk Glass Eye Pix's latest flick!

Written and directed by Jenn Wexler, THE RANGER pits a pink haired punk and her friends against an unsettling park ranger. Solid performances, moments of dark humor, and some nicely executed kills, this 80s send up was a perfect addition to the Portland Horror Film Festival - and will make a great addition to our collection once it's available for purchase!

As summer begins to rear it's head, we headed down to the cool, and chilling, atmosphere of bunker horror after a quick retrospective on Crypticon 2018 and Satanic Panic at the Hollywood Theatre.

Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Pour in the following:

1.5oz Silver Tequila

1.5oz Cold Brew

.5oz Cinnamon Schnapps

Shake and strain into a chilled martini glass.

During the month of April we have a curated shelf at Movie Madness - and Matt needed to catch Cat up on some gems.

Tune in as we talk director Michele Soavi's Cemetery Man (1994) and The Church (1989)

Matt and Cat don't actually work in a standard 9-5 office environment... and after these films, we're glad we don't have to survive The Man!

Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Pour in the following:

2oz Gin

1oz Fresh Lime Juice

.75oz Rosemary Simple Syrup

Shake and strain into a chilled martini glass.

** Homemade simple syrup is insanely easy - and adding herbs really levels up your cocktail game! For regular simple syrup, simmer equal parts water and sugar until the sugar is completely dissolved. For any flavored simple syrup, simply add the spice/herb to the sugar and water before your start the simmering

Tune in as Matt and Cat tackle cosmic accidents, multi-verses, and parties gone terribly wrong. What would you do if you saw another you?

Mix yourself a Mezcal Effect and join us for a conversation on 2013's +1 and 2014's Coherence.

Cocktail Concoction: The Mezcal Effect

Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Pour in the following:

2oz Mezcal

1oz Fresh Lemon Juice

.5oz Maple Syrup

Shake and strain into a rocks glass with ice

From new body horror to a cult classic, Cat and Gretchen talk female directors and the forward momentum of women in the horror genre.

They say girls are made of "sugar and spice and everything nice". With that in mind, I whipped up a krupnik with some serious bite!

In a saucepan combine the following:

1 cup Honey

1 Cinnamon stick

1 Fresh Habanero pepper, sliced

Bring the honey and spices to a boil, reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes.

Remove from heat, add 1.25 cups of vodka. Let it cool then strain into desired container.

Can be served as a shot or in a rocks glass over ice
