Let's Scare My Girlfriend to Death

Hello and a very happy Halloween week to all our listeners out there. We wanted to end this month of harvest horror on a high note doing a film set at Halloween. That's right we watched Dark Harvest. Join us as we venture into 1960's Halloween vibes, cornfields, dead teenagers, and of course Sawtooth Jack. Did we like it? Did it scare Cyndi to death? Join us to find out. 

This week, we wander into the haunted cornfields of the American South — and straight into the eerie world of early ’80s made-for-TV horror — with Dark Night of the Scarecrow (1981). To our knowledge, it’s one of the very first films to make a scarecrow the central monster of a horror story.

Did we love it?

Tune in this week to find out!

Harvest Horror Month continues as we make our this week to the corn fields of Nebraska with Children of the Corn. That's right the Stephen King short story turned 80's pre-Terminator Linda Hamilton vehicle is our film this week. Join us as Cyndi experiences He Who Walks Behind the Rows for the first time with crazy tv static effects. Did we like it? Was Cyndi creeped out by Malachi? Most importantly did it scare Cyndi to death? Join us to find out. 

It's not often that we cover a movie the same year it gets released. However, today we bring you 2025's Clown in a Cornfield a movie about clowns, corn, friends, and most of all Friendo. However, did we like it? Were we entertained by the exploits of Friendo and the group of teenage victims? Did it scare Cyndi to death? Join us this week to find out. 

Join us as we wrap up our true crime serial killer month with Bong Joon Ho's masterpiece Memories of Murder. Based off a series of killings by what is considered to be the first South Korean serial killer. Did we love it? Were we struck by the film's ability to go from funny to terrifying to beautiful? Most importantly did it scare Cyndi to death? Join us this week to find out. 

Welcome to week three of our month of serial killer films based on true events. This week we watched the 1976 quasi factual The Town that Dreaded Sundown from the filmmakers behind The Legend of Boggy Creek. Come for the story of a masked man terrorizing Texarkana Arkansas and stay for wonderful performances from Ben Johnson, Andrew Prine, and a surprising turn from Dawn Wells aka Mary Anne from Gilligan's Island. Join us to find out if we liked it, if we were surprised at the brutality of the masked killer, and most importantly to see if it scared Cyndi to death. 

This week, we dive into Cruising (1980), William Friedkin’s controversial thriller about an undercover cop hunting a serial killer in New York City's vibrant late-'70s LGBTQ nightclub scene. Inspired by the chilling Bag Murders—where dismembered bodies were discovered in garbage bags floating in the Hudson River—this film is as unsettling as it is unforgettable.

Were we blown away that this film even exists? Did it scare Cyndi to death? Join us to find out. 

Join us this week as we watch the meticulously constructed David Fincher directed Zodiac. A star studded film that reminds us how good a thriller/procedural can be in the hands of a master. However, did both of us like it? Did it scare Cyndi to death? Join us this week to find out. 

Well you can't do a month of movies about serial killers made by actors or directors at the height of their power without talking about this film. That's right we watched Dirty Harry a thinly disguised zodiac killer movie made during the height of the zodiac killings in the bay area. Did we love it? Was Cyndi surprised at how good Andrew Robinson's Scorpio Killer was? Did it scare her to death? Join us this week to find out and make our day. 

Join us for a beautifully shot film about an American sociopath social climber on extended vacation in 1950's postwar Italy. Come for the murders and stay for the surprisingly beautiful film. Join us to see if we loved Matt Damon thriller and if it somehow, someway scared Cyndi to death.
