Some horror movies ask you to suspend your disbelief.

Leviticus asks what happens when belief itself becomes the horror.

In this episode, Jack & George Do Horror takes on Leviticus, a film that mixes religious imagery, occult mystery, and creeping dread into something that feels unsettling long before the scares arrive.

This isn't a movie built around jump scares.

It's built around the slow realization that something is deeply, profoundly wrong.

And once that feeling settles in…

It never really lets go.

Some horror movies tell one story.

V/H/S/94 tells several.

And somehow manages to make all of them feel like they were discovered on a tape that should have stayed buried.

In this episode of Jack and George Do Horror, we dive into V/H/S/94, a found footage anthology packed with cults, monsters, mad science, and enough chaos to make you wonder who looked at any of these situations and thought, "Yeah, let's keep filming."

We talk about:

• why found footage still works when so many people have tried it before
• which segment we'd actually want to see expanded into a full movie
• and why horror anthologies are uniquely good at delivering ideas that would completely fall apart at feature length

This movie is loud.

Some horror movies are about monsters.

Some are about people who become monsters because they can't let something go.

In this episode, Jack & George Do Horror takes on Obsession, the newest film from Curry Barker, a movie that starts with grief, fixation, and loneliness… and slowly turns into something much darker.

We talk about:

• why obsession is such an effective horror theme
• the difference between love and possession
• and how some movies make you feel uncomfortable long before anything "scary" actually happens

This one feels intimate.

Like you're watching somebody spiral in real time.

And the scariest part might be how understandable some of it feels.

Some movies improve on the original by going bigger. V/H/S/2 improves on the original by going absolutely feral.

This 2013 found footage horror anthology picks up the same cursed-tape energy from V/H/S, but the segments feel sharper, meaner, and more confident this time around. The movie is built around a wraparound story called "Tape 49," with four main found footage segments from directors including Adam Wingard, Eduardo Sánchez, Gregg Hale, Timo Tjahjanto, Gareth Evans, and Jason Eisener.

In this episode, Jack and George talk about why V/H/S/2 feels like the franchise figuring out exactly what it wants to be: nasty, creative, chaotic, and sometimes way better than it has any right to be. There are haunted eyeballs, zombie GoPros, alien abductions, and one cult segment that basically kicks the door off the hinges and screams, "Oh, you thought the first movie was intense?"

The big conversation here is found footage itself. Not just "why is the camera still rolling?" but how the best segments use the camera as part of the horror. A helmet cam, a documentary crew, a dog-mounted camera, a robotic eye. The gimmick works when the footage feels like it has a reason to exist, and V/H/S/2 seems obsessed with finding new ways to make that happen.

And then there is "Safe Haven."

We have to talk about "Safe Haven."

That segment, directed by Gareth Evans and Timo Tjahjanto, has become one of the most talked-about pieces in the whole franchise, and for good reason. It starts with a documentary crew investigating a cult and then turns into a full-speed nightmare machine. Even people discussing the film years later often single it out as one of the franchise's strongest segments.

So this episode is about horror sequels, anthology structure, practical chaos, creepy tapes, and whether V/H/S/2 is the rare sequel that knows exactly what to fix.

Also: there is a demon. A very standard Baphomet-looking demon. But you know what? Sometimes standard Baphomet-looking demon gets the job done.

This week, Jack and George head into the woods for Hunting Matthew Nichols, a found-footage/mockumentary horror film about a documentary filmmaker trying to solve the decades-old disappearance of her brother and his friend on Vancouver Island. The movie follows Tara Nichols as she digs into old evidence, missing tapes, family trauma, and the kind of mystery that starts as true crime and slowly turns into something much darker.

Part missing-person documentary, part supernatural horror story, and part "why would anyone go back into those woods?" cautionary tale, Hunting Matthew Nichols plays with the old fear that some stories do not want to be solved. It leans into found-footage nostalgia, but with a cleaner documentary style instead of pure shaky-cam chaos.

For Episode 7, we talk about whether the movie earns its scares, how well the mystery builds, and why fake documentaries can sometimes feel more unsettling than traditional horror movies. We also get into what makes a good "lost tape" story work, how much backstory is too much backstory, and whether this one belongs in the same conversation as the found-footage movies that clearly inspired it.

Basically, we watched a movie about people investigating a horrible disappearance in the woods, and then we did the most responsible thing possible: we recorded ourselves talking about why that was a terrible idea.

There are things you watch because you want to.

And then there are things you watch because you can't quite look away.

In this episode, Jack and George take on Faces of Death (2026), a movie that sits in a weird place between horror, curiosity, and something a little harder to define. It's less about story and more about reaction. About what happens when a movie stops feeling like a movie.

We talk about:

• where the line is between horror and something more uncomfortable
• why "real" or "real-feeling" changes the way you experience what you're watching
• and whether a movie like this is trying to say anything… or just make you feel something

This one isn't fun in the usual way.

It's not even scary in the usual way.

It just stays with you… whether you want it to or not.

George: mildmanneredaf Jack: TopThrillJack

Same movie.

Different reactions.

Still not sure we should've watched this one

There are places that feel wrong.

And then there are places that are built that way.

In this episode, Jack and George take on They Will Kill You, a movie that traps its characters inside something bigger than they understand. A building, a system, a set of rules that don't quite make sense until it's already too late.

We talk about:

• was this an action movie or a horror movie?
• who was the actual bad guy of this movie?
• and, of course, how long would we survive in this scenario?

This one doesn't rush.

It just keeps tightening.

And the longer it goes, the less it feels like anyone is actually in control.

George: mildmanneredaf Jack: TopThrillJack

Some movies ask big questions.

Some movies just throw you into chaos and tell you to keep up.

This one does a little bit of both.

In this episode, Jack and George take on Good Luck Have Fun Don't Die, a movie that moves fast, thinks fast, and doesn't spend a lot of time explaining itself. It's part action, part sci-fi, part "just go with it."

This one's about momentum.

And whether that's enough.

George: mildmanneredaf Jack: TopThrillJack

Some movies tell a story.

This one kind of… drifts through one.

In this episode, Jack and George sit with It's Such a Beautiful Day, a film that feels simple on the surface and then slowly becomes something else entirely. It's quiet, strange, and at times unexpectedly heavy.

We talk about:

• how a movie with almost nothing in it can still feel overwhelming
• what it means to follow a character you don't fully understand
• and whether this is even a movie you're supposed to "get"

This one hits differently depending on how you watch it.

And we definitely didn't watch it the same way.

There are bad nights.

And then there are hide-and-seek-with-a-rich-family-that-wants-you-dead nights.

In this episode, Jack and George step into Ready or Not 2 and try to figure out why watching people panic in a giant house is… kind of a great time.

We talk about:

• why simple premises hit so hard
• the difference between fun scary and actually scary
• and how long we'd realistically survive in this situation

(Jack thinks he has a plan. I strongly disagree.)

Some movies try to be smart. Some movies just know exactly what they are.

This one might be both. But, that's a big MIGHT.

George: mildmanneredaf Jack: TopThrillJack

We're two episodes in.

No strategy. No master plan.

Just watching movies and seeing what sticks.
