March 04Scream 7 (2026) (NOW SLAYING)
On this episode of NOW SLAYING, Colton & Rowan sharpen their knives and cut into SCREAM 7! Can a seventh entry still give us exciting kills? Are the returning fan-favourite characters enough to distract us from the no shows? And, in a world consumed by reboots, requels, and A.I. slop, would deepfake versions of us have given this a more favourable review? Tune in to find out if we gave this film a NAY, OKAY, YAY, or SLAY!

March 01Army Of Darkness (1992)
The squad grabs their boomsticks and gets medieval with Rowan's pick, ARMY OF DARKNESS (1992). Does ditching the gore for comedy still slap harder than a deadite across the face? Did this film create most of the EVIL DEAD lore? And, how long can Ash survive fighting tiny, trash-talking versions of himself?! Tune in to find out if we gave this film a NAY, OKAY, YAY, or SLAY!

On this episode of NOW SLAYING, Rowan & Gill finally get around to a DOUBLE FEATURE of WHISTLE and THE STRANGERS: CHAPTER 3.

February 15In The Mouth Of Madness (1995) (SEVEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY)
For our SEVENTH ANNIVERSARY episode, the squad stares straight into the abyss as we tackle YOUR pick, IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS (1995). Is this Lovecraftian horror done right? Does John Carpenter + camp = cosmic perfection…or total madness? And let's be real, with Sam Neil on screen, there’s no way Colton & Rowan aren't spiralling into Jurassic Park territory. Join us for a celebratory descent into insanity, anniversary vibes, and eldritch chaos as we decide whether this one earns a NAY, OKAY, YAY, or SLAY.
