That's right, true believers, it's the triumphant return of Capes and Cold Ones! Join Rich and John as they dissect what many consider to be the gold standard of comic book movies - Spider-Man 2 directed by Sam Rami. John gives a brief run down on the hurried pre-production that somehow still allowed arguably the best movie to ever feature your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. The two also do not forget to praise one of the best villains turns as well with Alfred Molina donning the extra four mechanic arms as Doc Ock. This is going to be a marathon discussion, so get comfy, crack a cold one and enjoy this chat.

Join John and Kristina as they take a deep dive into Robert Egger's masterful retelling of the Dracula myth. The two gush over the visual language of the flick, the costumes as well as the makeup.

John and G discuss the underrated story of a werewolf haunting a small New England town. John may be a bit loopy, and we may have missed the spookiest month of the year by not posting a pod, but we're back now and that's all that matters! Sit back, crack a cold one and enjoy.

Kristina, John and Jenn with two n's sit down to chat about Richard Donner's The Omen. The trio dig the old timey score, '70's aesthetic and the fact that the doctor from The Secret of the Ooze plays a major part in this flick. Sit back, crack a cold one and enjoy.

G and John chat about one King's greatest, but also darkest works. The two chronicle the doomed lives of the Creed family that just wanted a nice little life in a sleepy Maine town, but were doomed by a busy road and a cursed burial ground a few miles away.

This book certainly isn't for the faint of heart, but The King and Cold Ones Crew agree, it's one of the writer's finest and most haunting works to date. So if you're interested, pull up a chair, grab a cold one from Jud's ice bucket and enjoy this chat on King's classic novel.

John and Jim discuss the differences between American and British humor. The stacked cast of this flick is admired as well as the pure brilliant imagination of Terry Gilliam. Ok, sure it doesn't fit the regular definition of a horror movie, but c'mon, Time Bandits rules! Gather up with some cold ones and get ready for an adventure through time.
