Ever wonder what it is about Christmas horror and unwanted pregnancy? Don’t worry, we’ve got this and several other dubious holiday needs covered. This episode, Candace and Ariel are talking about infamous and oddly goofy New French Extreme home invasion nightmare Inside (2007), as well as a different sort of home invasion (bad roommates) in indie horror comedy The Leech (2022). 

This will be our last episode for 2023, and as always we’re so thrilled to have you with us, listeners. Whatever your plans for this final stretch of the year, we hope you can take us with you and check out these nasty little Christmas movies. Please heed our warning and do not watch the 2016 remake of Inside — unless you’re into that sort of thing. We’ll be back in 2024 with more soul-crushing content.

Content note: Both films in our double feature this episode contain themes of suicide, and we will discuss it during the episode. One film also contains child death.

Hello ghouls, we are back at it again with a nasty bummer of a double feature (positive) from what’s so far shaping up to be a nasty bummer era — the 2020’s. It’s just Candace and Ariel this time, talking about Bryan Bertino’s bleak and tough to pin down The Dark and the Wicked (2020) along with Demian Rugna’s mean-spirited romp through catastrophe, When Evil Lurks (2023)

Mind the content notes, but also consider: both of these films prominently feature goats and abandonment by god. How can you turn that down?

Content note: Multiple of our films today include sexual violence and this episode contains discussion of that. 

We’re back! Just in time for The Season, Candace and Ariel are joined by regular guest, technical and emotional support, and Rob Zombie fanboy Pat Spurlock to talk about horror’s favorite wife guy — specifically House of 1000 Corpses (2003), The Devil’s Rejects (2005), and perhaps his most challenging, The Lords of Salem (2012).

Ghouls and Wikipedia summary readers, if you haven’t given Rob Zombie a proper chance, this is your sign! If this one doesn’t get you, we’ll be back with another Halloween episode soon, so stick around.

It’s Pride Month, and much like the United States, we’re going back in time and getting scared of gay people. Come hang out while we talk about the little-known bleak cult horror of The Seventh Victim (1943), along with Hitchcock’s classic tale of murder, intrigue, and out-of-control carousels, Strangers On a Train (1951).

We mention it within the episode, but as an additional warning, The Seventh Victim deals heavily with suicide, so if you want to skip past that part of the double feature, you can pick back up with Strangers On a Train at the 32:45 mark.

This one goes all the way to the top… or does it? Candace and Ariel are joined by filmmaker and fellow podcaster Andrew Jara to talk about (suspiciously?) underwatched mind bending conspiracy moves – creepypasta/urban legend-inspired thriller The Empty Man (2020), and the atmospheric and noir-ish Broadcast Signal Intrusion (2021)

Our connection was a little spotty during this recording, so please forgive us if we accidentally a word or sentence here or there. Also, please be warned, we do address sexual assault and suicide in our discussion, though these topics aren’t directly portrayed in either film. 

Check out our guest Andrew’s podcast, The Bomb Squad as well as his new film, The Empty Space, out May 30th.

Candace and Ariel decided to divide and conquer at the theater to bring you a Very Special Mother's Day Episode: Ariel watched the latest in an iconic horror franchise EVIL DEAD RISE and Candace checked out the much-anticipated new Ari Aster flick BEAU IS AFRAID. In an unhinged move we bring you an entirely different format in which we give spoiler-free reviews to each other of these two movies and SOMEHOW still come up with why they might be a good double feature (hint: it's bad mommies and mommy issues).

Note- for those interested in watching BEAU, potential content warning for parental abuse.

Have you seen either of these films? What did you think of them? Let us know and tell us what we should be watching next!

This double feature is all about deceptive appearances, mysterious disappearances, and the cruel and beautiful landscape that serves as their backdrop. It’s desert horror, ghouls, and we’re talking about subtly supernatural thriller, Zzyzx (2006), and mockumentary style found footage film, Horror in the High Desert (2021). 

Content note: one of these films, Zzyzx, deals with sexual violence, and our discussion covers that.

We kept this one spoiler-light, but not free, so we recommend you give these both a watch if you’re wanting to be surprised. You can find both of these movies for free on Tubi.

Folks, our keywords today are Grimy and Obscure. If that sounds like your kind of thing, then come along as we’re joined by our pod pals Nathaniel Muir and Blake Heath from Adventures in Movies while we talk about an honest-to-god oddball double feature: Alabama’s Ghost (1973) and Candyland (2023). 

A correction: Candyland is available to rent on several platforms now. This movie does deal with sexual violence, so mind the content notes, but check it out if you can.

Candace and Ariel are emerging from the deep dark woods to tell you their spoiler-free thoughts on the new horror comedy out in theaters, Cocaine Bear! 

Odd are you're either the type of person to see a film with a title like "Cocaine Bear" or you're not, so it's likely our opinion won't sway you one way or the other. But hey, aren't you dying to know our smoking hot take anyway? Listen to our thoughts on this one and let us know what we should be checking out next!
