Now Screaming

Surprise! It’s two for the price of one this week at Now Screaming! This time around, Liz and Evan tackle their first remake with the The Amityville Horror (2005). Listen as they discuss Ryan Reynolds (and his wet hot body), wax philosophical about the nature of remakes, and wade through the highs and lows of this take on one of the ultimate haunted house stories.

Does fear have a season? Evan and Liz find out this week, as they tackle the 2011 monster-movie-slash-crime-thriller Rites of Spring. They try to make the best of the dismal proceedings by unravelling the film's dual narratives and pondering what, exactly, helps make the crops grow. It's a hell of a romp.

This week, Evan and Liz tackle The Curse of Sleeping Beauty, a movie that shoots for the moon and misses by so, so much.

Join them as they lead a death march through the movie's disastrous plot: the highs (mannequin monsters!), the lows (messy mythology!), and the in-between (a sexy Asian nerd!). Be sure to check out nowscreaming.com, and chime in on Twitter (@nowscreamingpod) or by email at [email protected].

Happy Friday! Liz and Evan have some announcements and reflections on Now Screaming's first week.

In Now Screaming's debut episode, Evan and Liz begin their quest to watch every horror movie currently streaming on Netflix with... a sequel?!?

They dive into Scream 2 headfirst and discuss the morality of Randy and Cotton, argue about murderer motivations, and question whether the film's social commentary holds up. Be sure to visit our website at nowscreaming.com and stay tuned for the announcement of next week's movie.
