We're not ones to shy away from controversy, and the film we watched this week is just that—controversial. Entitled Thirteen Women (1932), there seems to be more than a few things missing from this pre-code era psychological thriller. All that, and MORE (re. emu wars????) on this week's episode of It's Not That Scary!

I vant you to listen to this week's episode! That's how DRACULA would sound if he were an It's Not That Scary fan. But he isn't. He hates podcasts. Luckily, we don't take that personally, so we sat down to watch Tod Browning's Dracula (1931) — the first horror movie with sound! 

Hello folks and fiends and welcome to another installment of It's Not That Scary, a horrifying podcast about movies! This week's episode is a real treat, because hosts Ethan, Jadon, and Margo are joined by 51 frogs from the Frog Jumping Jubilee! The 54 of us all sit and talk in unison about two cinematic interpretations of Edgar Allen Poe's Fall of the House of Usher. Buckle up and grab your BFs and GFs (big frogs and giant frogs)! 

There are three things that are certain in life: death, taxes, and the fact that Ethan doesn't know who Charles Lindbergh is. Listen to this episode to hear your beloved hosts talk about all three and how they relate to 1927's The Cat and the Canary. Who receives the mysterious fortune? What kind of law does Jadon's dad practice? And how on Earth is it possible that Ethan has never heard of the Lindbergh baby kidnapping??? All of that — and more — on It's Not That Scary.

In this week's episode, flat eyeballs are on the brain. But whose flat eyeballs are we talking about? Ethan certainly doesn't know, but maybe you can figure it out! We also talk about the 1926 film The Magician, which is, as usual, not that scary. 

This week, we sit down and argue over if the movie was good or not. It's called The Monster and it's from 1925. Instead of watching it for yourself and making an "informed decision," why not just listen to us talk about it! It won't be that scary!

Before you listen to this episode, take a moment to look at your hands. Cool right? Now imagine they weren't your hands, but the hands of a murderer! That's what our boy Paul Orloc has to deal with in 1924's "Hands of Orloc." Sound interesting? Maaaaaybe. Don't form an opinion for yourself! Instead listen to us talk about it, because it's not that scary. 

What do Hitler, Annie Oakley, and Nosferatu all have in common? We talk about them on THIS WEEK'S EPISODE!!! That's right, it's 1922 and we're watching the vampire movie made famous by a talking sea sponge. Tune in and get educated (but not scared)!

This week we're watching what host Ethan Embry called "the best movie ever made*," The Phantom Carriage — our first Swedish film. Was it better than the German heavyweights? Tune in to find out! We promise it's not that scary!

*he recanted this statement upon finishing the film.

Hallelujah! Jadon found his voice! Tune in to here it, as well as our thoughts on The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. BONUS!!!!!! We introduce our new segment You Asked For It, with a brief review of The Haunting of Bly Manor, which, of course, is not that scary.
